Have Mercy, for you have definitely been a bad boy.
Wow. You really did it this time, haven’t you? Well, no worries, we’ve all been there and even though you’d like to separate from your body right now and recover from the most evil of hangovers, I’ve got some cures that will help ease the pain…and none of them include hair of the dog.
Have Mercy – The beverage Mercy is a great solution if you like to party regularly, as it contains amino acids, vitamins and minerals to not only help you recover from a hangover, but it claims to be able to prevent them as well. You can drink it to recover from a hangover but also drink it the night before and help stop one from happening. Genius, right?
Feeling sick? Act like it. In addition to taking aspirin (always with food) and replacing electrolytes with fitness drinks like Gatorade, a hot shower will help. Believe it or not, the same therapeutic benefits that make eucalyptus great for alleviating flu-like symptoms make them a godsend when it comes to hangover recovery. This Kiss My Face Cold & Flu Shower Gel with Eucalyptus ($11.49) should help.
Rehydrate and Rest – This goes without saying, but the little attack on your system is due in large part to dehydration. Drink plenty of water and see if you can add some Vitamin C to your beverage roster (juice, supplements.) You’re no good to anybody right now, so put out the Do Not Disturb sign and get some double duty sleep by applying some Philosophy Hope In A Tube Eye and Lip Cream ($33), which will repiar and firm your parched eye and lip tissues while you dream of being sober.
Feel better, hon. We’ve all been there. Just remember to eat something fabulous and stay away from the spirits for a little bit. Your skin – as well as your liver and your aching head – will thank you.
