So it’s been said that our eyes are the gateway to our
soul. Well what are you eyes telling
you? Mine? Well it depends on the morning. Some mornings they are happy and ready to
take on the world. Others, they look in
the mirror and question who they are actually looking at. This year I’ve been doing a lot of traveling
and usually not in my time zone. My last
trip I thought I was in Dante’s Inferno.
My flight was a red eye out of Orange County with two layovers to Ohio. At my final destination I was supposed to
look bright eyed and bushy tailed for a sales meeting; the optimal test for an
outside sales rep. So what is my
secret-besides Starbucks Green Tea Lemonades?
My other secret is Smash box’s Photo Op.
This little tube of wonderfulness illuminates the under eye
area and helps alleviate the appearance of dark circles; perfect for the night
owl living in a conventional working world. Usually this is all I need, but
there are some mornings where I’ll also apply a concealer on top of that.
Now
the newest edition to my collection of favorites comes from Ole Henriksen. Ole
has created this fabulous line of products that have African Red Tea in
them. One of which is the Visual Truth
Eye Cream. This eye cream is absolutely,
hands down fantastic. African Red Tea
has a high level of anti-oxidants and helps in soothing the skin and reduces
the signs of aging and actually strengthens the skin under the eye. I have seen a major change in the skin around
my eyes since I’ve started using this cream.
By using this cream morning and night, the skin under my eyes doesn’t
look at tired or worn out but youthful instead.
Fun Fact for the
crazy holiday shoppers:
Eyelids get tired, and so do the muscles around them, but the eyes themselves are fully functioning all the time and never need rest. But the bad news is, you still get bags under the eyes if you don’t rest them.
Cheers!
Beckie
