Why should you use an eye cream?

Eye creams - why should you use it?

Many beauty editors have said you are never too young to start using it. Generally, you would dab it under your eye, over your eye lid and the area between your nose and eye.

Eye creams have many talents - they protect the skin before makeup application, moisturise, reduce puffiness, reduce the appearance of dark circles and slow or prevent aging lines/evidence.

Jurlique Herbal Recovery Eye Cream - it's packed with botanical oils, help to fade dark circles (so it brightens) and firm.

It feels light but still moistursing the same time. Like all of their products, it smells lovely. 4 stars.


Estee Lauder Advanced Night Eye Cream - they aim for many things like decrease puffiness, fine lines, uneven skintone, wrinkles. Similar to the serum but thicker because the skin under the eye is more fragile. It feels hydrating during and after application. 4 stars

Trilogy Eye Contour Cream - feels lighter than the above two products and it doesn't really have a scent. After a couple of months, it smells 'off' which means something has gone wrong or they don't use preservatives (I doubt it). 2 stars

New Serums on the Market

If you have seen the hype, the following serums have been relaunched and suppose to be bigger and better than ever.

Lancome Advanced Genifique

The main aim of this product is to promote and restore youthfulness. Benefits include Smoothes Fine Lines and Deep Wrinkles, Boosts Radiance, Clarifies and Evens Skin Tone, Improves Skin Texture, Increases Elasticity and Tonicity, Firms Skin, Hydrates 

On my skin, it feels good but it immediately does not feel as hydrating as I want it too.

But many women love this, so this works...although exy, above $120 for a bottle.


Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair II

This is baby number 2. It's tested and proven to reduce wrinkles and lines, skin feels smoother and hydrated, skin is more radiant. This serum feels so much better on my skin compared to Lancome. I can use it during the day, even though it's for night. It's very hydrating and they have a whole range...including eye cream which I will review in a week's time (so check back!)

This serum will set you back $150.


SK ii Facial Treatment

This miracle water helps the skin through the renewal process and helps to balance the skin's PH level and sebum secretion so both oily and dry parts of the face are being moisturised.

This treatment feels like water and it's easy to use. Smells a little funny and feels good on the skin.


Come back in a week's time to read about the new eye cream on the market.
