“The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.” –Audrey Hepburn
The Trick
Late nights coupled with little sleep will lead to dreaded dark under-eye circles. Much to the despair of beauty professionals and sufferers alike, “black eyes” are often hereditary. Clinique’s latest offering, however, shows some promise of finding a solution. Even Better Eyes Dark Circle Corrector has a new formula that has been specifically designed to treat dark circles with both immediate improvement and over time. It contains vitamin C and mulberry root to lighten the area, as well as caffeine and green tea extract to help soothe and protect the delicate skin. Having tried the product for just over a week now, I can say that the metallic cooling tip applicator refreshes while the slight peach color visibly brightens the area and enhances the natural skin tone.
The Tip
Gently massage the eye cream in a circular motion to rid the area of fluid congestion and stimulate microcirculation; this will help reduce puffiness and shadows. Avoid applying in a clockwise motion, which will stretch the area and can lead to loose skin and more wrinkles.
