It used to be that young women would chant the mantra, 'I must, I must, I must increase my bust' while doing strengthening exercises. Now all you need do is take a pill - or so some say.
Perfect C, a 100 per cent herbal concoction in pill form, is available from fashion and style website Queenbee.com.hk, swimwear store Ozzie Cozzie in Lan Kwai Fong and Paul Gerrard salon in Soho. The website says Perfect C was developed by British chemists with experience in the dietary supplements field. Each capsule contains 13 effective breast tissue growth-promoting botanicals, including blessed thistle, dong quai (angelica sinensis), mother's wort, fenugreek extract and saw palmetto.
The recommended daily dosage is three pills, which the laboratory claims are free from any harmful synthetic oestrogens or hormones but encourage the natural activity of hormonal production. The pills should be avoided by women who are pregnant or nursing. Participants in trial studies also noted more balanced and regular menstrual cycles with a reduction in pain, cramps, bloating and mood swings. Other benefits that have been reported are improved skin condition, fuller lips, stronger hair and nail growth and an increased libido.
