Oral Fix-ation: Under the tongue, over the freak-out
NEW YORK: Friday, May 27, 2005
WHAT: skyn ICELAND's Anti-Stress Oral Spray
WHY: We'd love to tell you about this intriguing new product, but we've just sprayed it three times under our tongue and we're holding it for 20-30 seconds before we swallow it, per the instructions. Ah, that's better. The cranberry-mint flavor is slightly perfumy. It makes our mouth tingle in the most pleasant way. Maybe it's the bioactive ingredients, which are culled from Iceland's pristine natural resources. The act of spraying this fragrant golden liquid makes us feel like we're doing something good for ourselves, and we welcome the thought of de-stressing in a natural way. The Angelica Archangelica-a relative of ginseng- has got to be more beneficial than Ketel One and Lorazepam. Theanine-an amino acid found in green tea-promotes relaxation and bolsters the immune system. They say this spray soothes jitters and restores equilibrium, ultimately protecting the skin from the damaging effects of chronic stress. The under-the-tongue delivery is the fastest way to absorb these gorgeous botanicals, and the patented Lipospray technology makes sure the elixir ends up exactly where it should. We were skeptical at first, but we swear we're feeling calmer than we did before we sprayed. And our breath is suddenly sweet.
