Hear Fashionboyz’ Rifflist: Banged Up
Let’s face it…concerts can be dangerous. When mosh pits collide with mash ups, chances are you can go home with black eyes, sore muscles and cuts and scrapes galore. We have sampled 3 great products that can help ensure your speedy recovery.
After leaving a big show and feeling like an incubus of viral plague, nothing is better for your aching body than a warm bath where you can sit back, relax, and count all your teeth to make sure none were knocked out by an errant elbow.
We recommend the Naturopathica Arnica Muscle and Joint Bath and Body Oil ($32 at Naturopathica.com). Its namesake ingredient, Arnica, is a natural anti-inflammatory agent that eases soreness and swelling. Combined with essential oils of Rosemary, Basil and Bay Laurel, this elixir also stimulates blood flow and toxin release.
If all your raging against the machine is leaving you worse for the wear, then Zirh’s Restore Herbal Under Eye Cream can help repair the damage. With caffeine to stimulate cellular circulation, cucumber to retain moisture and the extract of pine tree bark known as Pycnogenol to oxygenate red blood cells, this cream will make you look ready to fight the good fight. $28 at Sephora.com
When your system of a down has got you going under, grab Alpine SOS Balm. A multi-purpose skin remedy, its potent formula reduces inflammation and soothes sore muscles. Ingredients include rose hip oil to help repair skin, Carapa and Callophylum oils to ameliorate aching muscles and jojoba oil to help protect irritated skin. $42 at SpaceNK.com
