Are you shattered after all those Christmas preparations? Have you been burning the candle at both ends with several Christmas parties? Maybe the strain is beginning to show after a busy time at work?
If your eyes are starting to show the strain forget the old cucumber slices on the eyes trick and revive her tired eyes with the 3-in-1 Electronic Eye Massager.
Eyestrain from spending too much time looking at your computer screen, reading or driving, is caused by a build-up of stress and tension in the nerves around the eye. The vibrating foam pads of the Electronic Eye Massager work on the pressure points at the temples, across the cheekbones and the bridge of the nose to improve blood circulation, release tension and relax the muscles for a drug-free headache cure. Using new acupressure technology; sore eyes, migraines and sinus problems are massaged away in minutes!
Massage tones the skin to effectively reduce fine lines and wrinkles. By activating a micro-circulatory blood current, the eye’s muscular fibres are encouraged to work more efficiently increasing resistance to infection. Developed from Chinese acupuncture and magnetics principles, this battery powered eye massager will revive tired eyes, stimulate circulation and tone muscle tissue.
The Electronic Eye Massager uses special massage to improve the tone of your skin, remove toxins from the cells that cause eye bags and dark circles and activate and regulate the muscle fibres which support the skin. You might look like a Storm Trooper from Star Wars while you’re wearing it, but your eyes will look brighter and feel less tired and strained.
It even claims to relieve nasal congestion and discomfort caused by colds and hay fever - which we all seem to suffer from at this time of year. So if Christmas preparations are taking their toll on your eyes, take a look at this mask!

As I watched the last of the current series of Dragon’s Den last night, my husband was putting up our Christmas tree. Some of you will think it’s a little late, some of you may even think it’s slightly too early, but the weekend conspired against us so we only got round to it last night. Anyway, as he was putting it in the stand and adding the lights a man came into the Den to pitch his ‘Tidy Tree Sack’. How topical I thought and watched in interest.
Basically, the concept is that this huge red sack sits beneath your tree in a somewhat decorative capacity and collects all the needles that fall off (more or less dependant on your choice of tree). Then, when Christmas is over and you’re taking the decorations down, the disposal of your tree is quick, easy and convenient. The Tidy Tree Sack pulls up over the tree and gathers at the top so that you can get it out of the house without the needles flying everywhere.
The Dragons reactions ranged from nonplussed to verging on outrage! Peter Jones said this Santa Sack for Christmas trees was ‘almost laughable’ and was really not happy about the fact that the bag would cost you almost as much as your tree. Deborah said it was a good idea, but you could run up your own with a big sheet and a sewing machine and Theo said quite simply; ‘You’ve wasted part of your life!’
I’m sure you can guess the outcome here! The poor man failed to secure any investment, but do you know, I think he’s on to something. It won’t be long until we’re all struggling to get rid of our trees and cursing as all the needles leave a carpet of green in our wake. I’m thinking in particular of one year when our tree shred so much we had to get it out through the window and we were still finding needles stuck in the floorboards the following August! So, I think the Dragons could’ve shown a little more festive cheer. Ok, the idea could be improved slightly, but if you struggle with your Christmas tree disposal each year, this could be £15 well spent!

Now, I’m not about to promote any sort of item that is demeaning to women,
but at the same time I am in possession of a sense of humour and if you’re
looking for an amusing stocking filler for your man and something that
will make the dreaded return to work in January a little easier, then
check out the USB Pole Dancer!
Lit up as though out clubbing, she’ll plug into your PC and dance away to
all your favourite MP3s. She may have caused a stir (she’s even been
removed from the shelves of one store), but did you know, pole dancing is
actually a very good way to keep fit !

Are you hoping your man will invest in a bit of bling for you this Christmas? Are you hoping to unwrap a little box on Christmas morning and open it to see a shiny, twinkling Diamond? Do you live in the vain hope of receiving a precious gem each year only to be disappointed again? Well, maybe this year will be different.
If your man moans that Diamonds cost the earth and you think you’ll be waiting forever or if it‘s the woman in your life who‘s dropping hints your wallet simply can‘t manage to fulfill, then this could be the solution. Imagine if you could get his hands on a big sparkly rock for the lady for under a tenner. The Diamond Keyring is the ultimate stocking filler.
Ok, maybe it won’t slip neatly on your finger as you were hoping, but as rocks go, one’s pretty huge! With four rings for your keys it has a practical use too. They say Diamonds are a girls best friend and this may not be exactly what you had in mind, but hey, it’s a start. And, there’s always next year! You’d better get saving!

There’s nothing worse than sitting down on a sweaty seat! So for anyone who spends hours chained to their desk chair, I think this is a fab idea. As for me, I send far too much time rushing around for my seat ever to warm up!

Ok, we all know Christmas is supposed to be a time to relax after the hectic year and enjoy the company of family and friends, but we also know that the reality can be a lot different. Spending that much time with loved ones or relatives you haven’t seen since last year can lead to all sorts of untold stress and tension.
Sometimes you simply need a little time out on your own. But, if the house is crowded where can you go? Why not escape to the sanctuary of the toilet where you can have ten minutes peace and quiet whilst still partaking in a festive game or two!
If you’re addicted to the number challenge of Sudoku and you want to indulge over Christmas then you’ve got the perfect excuse. With the fantastically absurd Sudoku toilet roll, things will be much more interesting when you ‘pay a visit’ and if the family are wondering why you took so long you can tell them the brussel sprouts didn’t agree with you. With each sheet’s puzzle being different to the previous one, you can nip away for a quick fix every time the festive celebrations start to get a little too much for you. What’s more, if you stuff up a game, just flush it away and no one will be any the wiser!

I have a problem at this time of year (no, not a dodgy health issue!) When I do my Christmas shopping I find it a dream to shop for the ladies, but more of a nightmare to find suitable presents for the men in my life.
Ding, ding! Make way for the Bicygnals - the perfect gift for my cycle mad Dad! I’ve got a bike, but I haven’t got the greatest coordination to go with it, so when I need to indicate to the traffic that I’m turning left or right, things can get a little wobbly, to say the least. Yes, I’m definitely happiest with both hands on the handlebars.
Indicators for bikes is something that’s been tried in the past, but without much success. Until now! Bicygnals are easy to use and clip on and off your bike when needed. With just a flick of your thumb both the front and rear signals wink away without the need for a tangle of unsightly and dangerous wires. So, when you’re out for a bike ride you can stay in control on busy roads whilst also signalling to drivers to let them know your intentions. No more waving your arms around like a mad thing!
Bicygnals even come with their own carry case for when they’re not in use which also makes them more presentable as a gift for my Dad. The only problem now - what to get my brother!

If you want to invest in a quality Digital Photoframe as a gift this Christmas then take a look at the eStarling 7” WiFi Digital Photoframe. For the best part of £180, it’s not the cheapest gift, but it’s good!
This is no ordinary Digital Photo Frame - it has it’s own email address! With a one time installation anyone can email it, so that friends and family can upload their festive photos direct to your frame! And don’t worry about receiving dodgy images to your frame - you can secure it by only allowing pictures from specific email addresses to be displayed.
It’s a great gift if you and your loved ones are separated by distance as you’ll feel you’re sharing in each other’s celebrations. With full web-based access you can connect the Photo Frame to your local Wi-Fi network and display pictures via email, or from an online photo archive source such as Flickr or Photobucket.
Once configured, the frame can be left to operate in a completely stand alone mode (no PC needed) and supports WEP or WPA encryption. It also has fully featured TCP/IP setup supporting DCHP and manual IP. Don’t worry if this all sounds a bit technical - it’s very easy to set up and use.
With Auto Power Saving - The eStarling frame can be programmed to turn-off automatically at night to save power and protect the screen. So, if you’re looking for a Digital Photoframe to show off your Christmas photos, why not check it out!

Yet another crazy device to make us more paranoid about our weight. Ok, if you want to find out what shape you’re in for health reasons, but I’d steer clear if you’re guilty of yo-yo dieting (especially over the Christmas period!)
