BANG FOR THE BITE

 

 

 

If 10,000 Biters opt for a 4-oz bottle of the eco-stuff rather than the typical synthetic variety, we'll avert the weight of 17 scurvy-laden sailors in questionable chems.

 

 

 

 

 

COCKTAIL FACTOID

 

 

Legend says that the South American island of Curacao ( " cure " in Portuguese) got its name after soldiers with scurvy, who explorer Amerigo Vespucci dropped off to die, ate the island's vitamin C-rich fruit and lived.

Wanna C someone you probably haven't seen in a while?

The Bite

C a renewed you - just dab on some eco vitamin-C personal care products for fresher skin in no time. You'll C what we mean.

 

The Benefits

 

Preventing skin damage. Antioxidants in vitamin C block damage from free radicals (byproducts of our bodies' natural processes that are responsible for aging).

C-ing beautiful skin. Vitamin C-infused skin-care products help brighten, clarify, and reduce redness.

Avoiding unhealthy chems. Our picks steer clear of formaldehyde, parabens, and petrolatum, which are linked to allergies and cancer.

 

Personally Speaking

Take it easy: A couple of us did vitamin C product testing over the course of a few months - daily, and sometimes more often - and ended up with little red bumps. Yes, even your skin can OD on vitamins, so go easy 'til you know what works for you.

 

Wanna Try?

 

Eminence Couperose-C Serum - pure plant concoction (with soothing camphor and marshmallow root) that gets the red out when your skin's irritated ($42).

Zia Papaya Enzyme Mask - its papaya packs additional antioxidants that renew your skin cells, while honey moisturizes; use weekly to give your skin a wakeup call ($25).

Weleda Wild Rose Intensive Eye Cream - not exactly a lid-lift, but its jojoba does help smooth out fine lines around your peepers ($25).
