Snake venom: the budget alternative to Botox?
A new cream claims to smooth wrinkles using a synthetic form of the poison produced by Asian temple viper snakes.
The £6 tubes of Lacura Wrinkle Stop contain a compound called Syn-Ake, which mimics the snake's paralysing venom. It promises to block the nerve signals which cause facial muscles to contract and can lead to lines.
Botox injections could make people depressed, study suggestsTests show that twice-daily application of the cream for four weeks may reduce the appearance of wrinkles by 52 per cent.
Other products containing Syn-Ake cost up to £60 per pot, and are popular with Hollywood stars including Gwyneth Paltrow and Hilary Swank.
The new moisturiser will be stocked in Aldi stores from April 20. A spokesman said: "It offers the perfect solution for wrinkle reduction without the need for spending an excessive amount of money on expensive products and painful procedures.”
