The eyes are the first area to show signs of ageing so it's important to help prevent this - or reverse it - depending on your age and skincare routine to date.

The first and most important advice would be to wear sunglasses always as premature ageing from the sun and squinting can cause damage.

Secondly, use a specific eye make-up remover as this area is very delicate.

Thirdly, apply a fantastic eye cream or eye gel twice daily. I recommend Sothys Radiance Eye Cream to combat circles, wrinkles and dark spots.

Finally it's important to have an eye facial, especially if you haven't been having facials regularly, are 25 and over and want to keep your eyes looking young, or aged 45 plus and you want to correct the signs of ageing, wrinkles, dark circles and puffiness.

It's also good if you're affected by screen light exposure, sleepless nights due to hormonal changes or late nights out.

The new CACI eye revive treatment is for everyone concerned with ageing eyes. It will help to lift and tighten the skin around the eyebrows and corners of eyes, reduce the puffiness under the eyes, and reduce fine lines and hooded eyelids. With the dual action of LED light therapy, the micro-current energy stimulates tissue regeneration and helps the production of collagen. The synergy of these two technologies provide visible and longer lasting results.

The treatment itself is very relaxing, takes 45 minutes and focuses on the eye area. It starts with the lifting of the brow muscles, smoothing the fine lines at the corners of the eyes (crow's feet) and draining build up of fluid and lymph under the eyes. We then use specific serum filled eye rollers with micro-current which have a cooling effect on the skin to gently tighten and tone sagging muscles around the eye area, whilst reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It's finished with a silicone mask infused with hyaluronic acid and we use a galvanic current to push in the serum and hold it in the deeper layers of skin. It's very refreshing and brightens the skin.

A piece of Killarney’s municipal history has been painstakingly brought back to life following an extensive restoration project by Milltown resident Billy Spring.

The rare machine served as a frontline tender for the Killarney Fire Brigade for four decades, spanning from the 1920s through to the 1960s. Having survived a century, the machine required a monumental amount of skilled craftsmanship to reverse decades of wear and return it to its former glory.

Now fully restored, this unique piece of local heritage offers a rare glimpse into the early days of emergency services in the region.

Tesla to install EV charging hub at Deerpark

Published

on


Tesla Ireland has submitted a planning application to Kerry County Council for the development of a high-power electric vehicle (EV) charging hub at Deerpark Retail Park.


The proposed infrastructure project will consist of installing eight dedicated electric vehicle charging bays equipped with eight Tesla illuminated charging units, alongside all associated corporate signage.
According to the planning documentation, the development will also require the installation of a Tesla supercharger power cabinet and a new modular substation to support the electrical load. The works will involve the relocation of an existing security cabin currently on site, as well as necessary ground development works, including resurfacing and new line markings for the bays.
The application follows a similar expansion move by the American multinational automaker last year in Dublin, where planning permission was successfully granted for a hub at the Rathfarnham Shopping Centre on Butterfield Avenue. That project also comprised eight illuminated charging bays powered via a modular substation and an electrical intermediary supercharger cabinet.
Kerry County Council will issue a decision on the Deerpark Retail Park application following the standard planning consideration and public consultation period.
