Peregrin Tugwood's Guide To Looking Great (and Feeling Fine)

By Professor Draekon

Peregrin Tugwood was the great nephew of Sacharissa Tugwood, who pioneered cosmetic and beautifying potions in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. While following his great aunt's approach to beauty, Peregrin was known to take a more holistic approach to the concept, also concentrating on muscle definition, stress-free demeanor, quick wit, and memory. Tugwood's Guide to Looking Great! (And Feeling Fine) was first published in 1965, but quickly had multiple re-printings. It appears here in its most recent publication from 1993, and includes any corrections or additions to the original recipes.

It usually lasts up to eight months when stored properly. However, when a thin layer of oil separates and forms on top of the potion, this is an indication that it has expired and should be discarded. To Use: Sixty ml of the Metabolic Potion can be safely taken orally once a week. Some will take the potion on its own, although it can also be added to a beverage. The potion tastes a little like chocolate and peanut butter with a hint of fishy aftertaste. The taker will see an increase in metabolism within two days after initial use. Side effects include hot flashes, increased heart rate, difficulty concentrating, altered mood and temperament, and headache. In some, the potion has been known to cause digestive problems. Caution: The potion should only be taken under observation of a licensed healer. Taking the potion without proper observation can lead to heart attack, stroke, and fever. In some cases, it has led to magical spontaneous combustion.
