Beauty Questions – Winter 2009

24 January 2010

Natural Olive Cream

I am 25 years old and always had fairly good to normal skin. I have always used very light moisturisers for years but think it’s now time to get a slightly stronger one. I would like one which keeps skin smooth, fresh and tightens pores (if possible!) but nothing too rich or heavy. Likewise for an eye cream to postpone those first few lines . . .

I’ve just discovered a great little beauty brand called ‘Ziaja’. Their Natural Olive line €7.49 is a light formula range which absorbs well and has the smoothing property you are looking for. In particular, try their product olive cream’, which is suitable for dry to normal skin.

For your eyes, I would recommend their ‘Goats milk eye cream’ €6.79 which moisturises, nourishes, tones, tightens, smoothens and prevents – all in one jar! Ziaja is available at McCabes Pharmacy Group. For more information on Ziaja products, www.ziaja.ie
