My Eyes Have It

Prod_eyecream If I love something, I always take it too far and never shut up about it which I think pretty much annoys everyone around me.  I mean, okay, New Kids on the Block - didn't shut up for all of 1989.  High School boyfriend - didn't shut up for all of 1993 and then when he dumped me, didn't shut up again for all of 1994.  Whatever, you see where I'm going with this.  I focus...entirely too much.  Products are no different for me.  I haven't shut up about Become Beauty since I was introduced to them earlier this year and here I am, still going on and on about them.  I have been dilligently slathering their Age Resistant Eye Cream on and I am (no surprise) very impressed.  It sinks in almost immediately, has a very pleasantly light fragrance and soothes and cools the eye area - really reducing puffiness.  Aside from containing Pearl Extract which brightens the area, it also contains Matrixyl 3000 which promotes collagen production (helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles - I think it sounds like a space station).  I adore how incredibly moisturizing and how reasonably priced the eye cream is (for a big ol jar of the stuff).  It retails for $39.00 and comes in their signature, adorable, red container.

Belli's Not Just For Moms

53big Because I'm in a constant state of stress over just about everything in my life, I have developed these lovely dark circles under my eyes.  After trying a bunch of eye creams, I finally found one that works in the most unexpected line - Belli.  I know, I know, the line is meant for moms, but I swear this stuff works.  And so what if my dark circles are from worrying about how I'm going to pay my bills and not from a newborn?  Dark circles are dark circles and when I started using their Eye Brightening Cream I noticed a difference within just a few days.  The lightweight cream has no fragrance and dries quickly without a sticky residue (gotta love that in an eye cream).  It contains Vitamin K, which helps to increase circulation, and I was stunned at how bright my eyes look now that I've been using it for a week.  It's actually very reasonable for an eye cream ($28.00 for .85oz) and can be purchased online at belliskincare.com and in a few select stores.  Only catch is now every time a friend sees the tube on my shelf they assume I'm pregnant, which I am not.  Maybe it's because it's bookended next to a box of pregnancy tests and a bottle of folic acid.
