Satsumas and taking the pith

We've just had a little nugget of nutritional information passed on to us by the iiaa the Institute for Anti Ageing, and we thought we'd share it with you.


Satsumas and clementines are traditionally eaten in abundance at Christmas time. Do you painstakingly strip off every trace of those little white fibre veins from your fruit? Or do you simply peel and eat the lot?


Exciting nutritional benefits are to be found in the bits of fruits and veg that we often discard. Hesperidin is a bioflavonoid found in citrus fruits, most highly concentrated in the white pith.


According to nutritionist Patrick Holford, bioflavonoids like hesperidin strengthen capillaries, stabilise vitamin C and have potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.


Boost your intake with our Advanced Nutrition Programme Skin Collagen Support supplement (110mg of hesperidin per 2 capsules)


And next time you peel your fruit, enjoy the white stuff too!

Fast Fixes For Busy Girlies

It's getting to that time of year where we are preparing for the Christmas festivities, and all that shopping, planning, cooking and cleaning can play havoc with a girl's nails!


Here at Waters Edge Clinic we know that spare time can be in short supply as we get closer to the 'Big Day', and finding the time to sit and wait for your nails to dry after a manicure is definately not on the priority list!


So why not try Shellac, the manicure that gives a high gloss shine for 14 days or more, with no danger of chipping or splitting nails?  Even better, your nails are dry instantly, so you're ready to go immediately your manicure is completed - and you won't have to worry about smudging either, as the high gloss finish seals and protects your nails.


It's another thing on your list that you can tick as 'done' and forget for 2 weeks during the festive period, and no matter how hard you party, your nails will always look immaculate! We have a special discount on Shellac manicures throughout December, so it's an even better treat!


Talking of needing quick fixes to get you looking good for the party season, how about a treatment for perking up your eyes that takes about 35 minutes, and is guaranteed to give tired eyes a 'lift'?


Our Express Eye Lift does just that! Using gentle microcurrent lifting techniques, we'll have those dark circles, puffy eyes and fine lines sorted in no time!
