 Faith in humanity restored
Do you know anyone who has a heart of gold? Well, we think they deserve a trophy, and so does Splash, the leading fashion brand that has recently launched a 'Heart of Gold' campaign. The campaign aims to honour 30 unsung heros over the 30 days of Ramadan, whether it is your next-door neighbour who devotes his time to the needy or a best friend who helps stray animals. All you have to do is send an entry with a picture, stating why you think the person deserves to be a part of the 'Heart of Gold' initiative to www.landmarkshops.com/splash/heartofgold before June 5. The award will come in the form of a spectacular pure gold trophy in the shape of a heart! 

Bid farewell to your 'tech neck'

If you're one of the many tech-obsessed women in the GCC, you may have what experts are now calling the 'tech neck'. According to dermatologists, constant neck bending to look at screens is leading to sagging skin, dropping jowls and a distinct crease above the clavical - the latest aging problem. For those who have noticed a crease forming around the neck, there's Skin Republic Neck + Décolletage Repair, which uses the latest in cloth mask technology to reduce neck wrinkles. Available at Boots the Pharmacy and United Pharmacy across the UAE for Dh25.
