Magical' Snake Venom Anti-Wrinkle Cream Becomes Instant Hit!

By Staff

To add to the plastic-mask like faces of the celebs and youth-crazed adults, a brand new product has been lunched. What sets apart this product is the fact that it functions similar to the snake venom. According to the makers of Planet Skincare daily moisturizer, the magical cream 'stuns' the skin in a similar way to snakebite, helping to keep the face smooth. The cream incorporates a synthetic version of the poison from the Temple Viper, a distant cousin of the rattlesnake and indigenous to Malaysia. Amino acids in the venom block nerve signals causing the muscles to contract, helping to stop wrinkles forming.

Described as giving 'Botox-like results', the anti-aging cream went on sale last week in Selfridges. It is said to be selling at the rate of 50 pots per day, becoming one of the London department store's most popular skincare lines. Coming at 60 pounds a jar, it is an instant hit amid claims that it 'freezes' muscles in a way similar to Botox. The active ingredient won the 2006 Swiss Technology Award, amino acids,botox,gwyneth paltrow,moisturiser,skin care,snake venom,wrinkles is said to be a devotee.

'This could work for somebody who doesn't want injections. The effects are not going to be as dramatic as with Botox. It will also need to be reapplied as the body gets rid of it quickly,' Telegraph quoted Dr Aamer Khan, medical director of the Harley Street Medical Skin Clinic in London, as saying.

With the magical cream adding to the ever-growing fountain of youth, more and more people are attracted to it since it has simple application procedure and is easy to use and store. The pressures and competitions in the world of glamor often push individuals to seek newer ,better and weirder methods to arrest aging but the practice has penetrated in to the general public aswell, as we all like to be told that we look 'too young to be grand parents'!
