With spring upon us. It’s perfect time to update your skincare regime. Have you ever thought about buying an eye cream?
‘Never. I am young, I don’t need it. I would consider buy one when the first few lines appear.”
The truth is it is much easier to avoid the damage than it is to reverse it. The skin around the eyes is more fragile, more prone to dryness, and quicker to show age and fatigue. Squinting and constant motion of the eyes also accelerate the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and short sleeping hours and over stress cause puffiness and dark circles. Eye creams can address some of these issues.
AS SEEN IN Vogue’s May 2017 Edition:
“It’s no secret that the best beauty products are ingredient focused. KATHLEEN’s fantastic ‘Caviar Enrich Eye Cream’ is infused with more than 23 remarkable marine and botanical ingredients which help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and dark circles, protect against dryness and leaving you with a luminous looking eye area.”
Always cleanse hands and face thoroughly before applying any products in order to prevent germs, bacteria, dirt or other contaminating substances from being transferred from your fingers.
For optimal maintenance of the efficacy and integrity of the product, do not expose to extremes of hot or cold temperatures. Ideally, products should be stored in a dry place at room temperature and away from areas of humidity or that incur frequent changes in temperature such as the shower or bathing area.
When using skin care preparations for the care of skin around the eye area, it is important to apply in gentle tapping motions along the orbital bone area expanding outward from the cheek toward the temple area, avoiding direct contact with the eye or immediate eye area.

Valentine’s Day, also called Saint Valentine’s Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is an annual holiday celebrated on 14th February. It originated as a Western Christian liturgical feast day honoring one or more early saints named Valentinus, and is recognized as a significant cultural and commercial celebration in many regions around the world, although it is not a public holiday in any country.
History
February has long been celebrated as a month of romance, and that St. Valentine’s Day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition. The history of Valentine’s Day goes all the way back to Ancient Rome, Lupercalia festival, between the 13th and 15th February, for its archaic rite connected to fertility. Lupercalia was a festival local to the city of Rome, a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.
Romantic Connection: In the ancient Athenian calendar the period between mid-January and mid-February was the month of Gamelion, dedicated to the sacred marriage of Zeus and Hera. Lupercalia survived the initial rise of Christianity, but was outlawed, as it was deemed when Pope Gelasius declared 14th February St. Valentine’s Day in an effort to “Christianize” the pagan celebration of Lupercalia. It was not until much later, however, that the day became definitively associated with love. During the Middle Ages, it was commonly believed in France and England that 14th February was the beginning of birds’ mating season, which added to the idea that the middle of Valentine’s Day should be a day for romance. The oldest known valentine still in existence today was a poem written in 1415 by Charles, Duke of Orleans, to his wife while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London, which commences:
“Je suis desja d’amour tanné Ma tres doulce Valentinée…”
— Charles d’Orléans, Rondeau VI, lines 1–2
As the years went on, the holiday became sweeter, with William Shakespeare and Chaucer romanticizing it in their work.
Valentine’s Day is mentioned ruefully by Ophelia in William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, around 1600–1601
“To-morrow is Saint Valentine’s day, All in the morning betime, And I a maid at your window, To be your Valentine. Then up he rose, and donn’d his clothes, And dupp’d the chamber-door; Let in the maid, that out a maid Never departed more.”
— William Shakespeare, Hamlet, Act IV, Scene 5
Handmade paper cards became the tokens of the day.
Esther Howland Valentine, circa 1850: “Weddings now are all the go, Will you marry me or no”?
Valentine’s Poem
“I love you for a life time
Not only for a day
I love you for who you are,
not what you do or say.”
– Belinda Galea

This is the time for the best you have to offer!
In Great Britain, Valentine’s Day began to be popularly celebrated around the 17th century. By the middle of the 18th, it was common for friends and lovers of all social classes to exchange small tokens of affection or handwritten notes, and by 1900 printed cards began to replace written letters due to improvements in printing technology.
