Hyaluronic acid and my 7 day Trial

I'm trying Evolve Hyaluronic Acid in a 7 day trial, and will report back daily as to the results. I'm keen to reduce my 2 vertical frown lines, which are pretty deep, so no miracles expected! What's the blurb? This pure clear serum for normal to dry skin contains 200mg hyaluronic acid per bottle, proven to hydrate skin from within and plump up fine lines and wrinkles. Organic pomegranate extract softens and protects. Delicately fragranced with organic rosewater HYALURONIC ACID - Hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water making it a highly effective component in moisturisers.

Snakes alive, St Paddy has departed

So that's St Patrick's Day out of the way - and a chance for our collective liver to rest awhile.

That's plugged in and then a miracle happens. A surge of power wobbles the glass and the black stuff erupts like a volcano to form a creamy head and a pretty decent pint.

The Remains of the Day

Just 4 hours. That's all I wanted, just 4 hours. I have been so busy this week, not a second to spare, and work hampered by the inept non service of Parcels2go and our missing box...who could know sending one thing from one address to another could prove so futile. Still missing in action, by the way, for anyone following the saga... A poorly cat too, we knew Fluffy was on her last paws this week, we have had her a good 5 years or so, since the idiot Cádiar Englishman left her and her sister - now deceased - behind, when he packed up and left for foggier climes.... Karma, Carol, Karma....oommmmm Both white Persians, Fluffy got the stunning long hair and tail that Basil Brush would be jealous of, a stunner in looks and personality, especially compared with the bundle of evil sharpness we brought with us, known affectionately as Cleo. Earlier this week, Luna came to say goodbye, our street dog who is off to a better life in Blighty today, besos Luna, we wish you well. ...
