Ditch Allergy-Prone, Itchy Watery Eyes During Spring & Summer! Get Bausch & Lomb's Alaway!

The weather is crazy in the US these days: some sections are cold and wet and others are sunny and dry. The biggest issue is no matter where you are, allergies are a problem--whether it's mold & mildew due to rain and flooding or if it's ragweed & pollen due to suddenly sunny weather, your eyes are going to tell you that they are irritated. With over 50 million people in the US with allergies and about 50% of them are women, the operative question is what to do about the redness, the watering eyes, the itchy eyes and the darkening circles. How Does One Stay Beautiful During Allergy Season? Keep eyes clear and stop itching while helping eye make-up to look fresh (and prevent dark circle "raccoon eyes"), try prescription strength Alaway eye-drop from Bausch & Lomb that is now over the counter. Alaway works FAST to relieve the burning and itchy eyes for up to 12 hours (*that's 1/2 the day!) and your eyes will thank you for it because your mascara won't run, the eyes won't be read and you will look and feel better. Alaway was recently a prescription drug and is now over the counter. You can buy it at any drugstore. Check out the details on Alaway at HERE Alaway works immediately upon contact, alleviates burning and itching eyes for 12 hours-three times longer than any allergy eye-relief drops on the maker (which means your readers stay looking fresh and beautiful three times longer). Also, Alaway is also a product that readers may not realize that they already have in their bathroom cabinets. BUY IT NOW-- you will need it soon. In fact, start now so that your eyes are moist and clear and won't get red and itchy! Stevie Wilson

Venus Williams Says Goodbye To Tennis

Venus Williams hasn't quit, she hasn't retired, but she has said that she is going to stop playing for a while.

“I’ve just been having some issues that I need to resolve, so I’m working on that at the moment and I’m hoping to be back playing as soon as possible,” Williams said Tuesday at the Bausch & Lomb Championships. “I’m not going to get any further into it, but of course I love the sport.”

Last week she withdrew from the Bausch & Lomb tournament citing medial issues as her reason.

We'll see what happens...

Hard courts have been very good to Maria Sharapova so far this year. Now she's getting a head start on clay. Sharapova, who already won the Australian Open and is 18-1 to start 2008, switches surfaces this week, playing on clay for the first time this year at the Bausch & Lomb Championships. Fresh off a two week break, Sharapova will make her first career appearance at the tournament.
