In the war against wrinkles, it seems that people are willing to try anything to maintain a healthy, younger complexion. The latest fad involves rubbing a moisturiser that contains venom from a temple viper on your face.
The moisturiser contains a compound called Syn-Ake, which mimics the snake’s paralysing venom.
It promises to block the nerve signals which cause facial muscles to contract, which is how people get wrinkles.
For anyone who has no problem with snake venom and blocking nerves in their face, there are a number of products to choose from.
Snake Booster Oil helps to freeze the expression lines and wrinkles on your face with Syn-Ake.
Snake Serum O2 aims to boost the glow and bounce of your complexion and also contains Syn-Ake to freeze wrinkles.
Lastly, Chin and Neck Lift is a lightweight sculpting gel that contains, you guessed it, Syn-Ake, which along with amino acids helps to firm and lift the contours of your neck.
The Rodial Snake range is available now at Joyce Beauty.
