Move over every other eye cream in my beauty cabinet—I’ve found a new anti-aging concentrate and I’m not sure anything could replace it. I’ve been obsessed with Fresh since I first started using their collection of treatment masks in January. The antioxidant-rich Black Tea Instant Perfecting Mask has been my go-to and its eye targeting counterpart, Black Tea Age Delay Eye Cream, is just as hydrating and effective. A little goes a long way with this formula—it absorbs fast, making it easy to blend. While I can be super lazy with my night routine, this eye cream makes it easy to actually want to apply this every night. While fine lines and crow’s feet haven’t settled in quite yet for me, dark circles haunt me in the morning from my lack of sleep (which I desperately need to work on). This eye cream has become my saving grace. It’s packed with antioxidants and Kombucha, a fermented black tea blend known to bring back luster to dull skin and firm the complexion. I don’t think it’s completely diminished my dark circles but it certainly minimizes its appearance. This concentrate lightens, brightens and de-puffs my under eye area in the a.m. and I can feel it working thanks to the cooling sensation. Here’s to brighter mornings and preventative nights!

As a beauty ambassador for Neiman Marcus, the company provided me with a complimentary sample for review purposes.
Believe it or not, there are days when I don’t feel like doing my makeup. Whether it’s a yoga day or just a lazy day, I heavily rely on a cocktail of skincare products to make up for that “no makeup” look. On the flip side, without makeup I look extremely tired. Between the dark circles and dehydration, it’s hard to revive my under eye area. There is a secret to looking more awake and I promise, it doesn’t involve caffeine: just a coat of mascara, a little concealer and Clinique’s new Superdefense SPF 20 Age Defense Eye Cream. The sheer, creamy, luminous tint brightens tired, stressed eyes, not to mention is packed with anti-aging properties to help prevent fine lines and wrinkles. Clinique’s new eye cream is equal parts hydrating and brightening for the eye area. Not only does it help prevent UV damage and other environmental stressors, but it’s safe for contact lens wearers (like myself). Gently pat this formula under your eyes and layer with some concealer, and you’re good to go!
Not a morning person? I totally get it. Leaving your warm cozy bed is anything but easy for those early wake-up calls. For me, it’s not normal if I don’t hit the snooze button on my iPhone at least twice. There are few things that motivate me to get out of bed, and naturally, one of those reasons is my Darphin Sorbet Eye Mask. Consider this skincare gem like a cup of coffee for your eyes (speaking of coffee, that’s my favorite mug right there… can you tell I miss California?). Its creamy gel texture instantly moisturizes the eye contour (thanks to its natural Cucumber and Japanese Green Tea extracts), and wakes up even the most tired looking eyes. I know this because my eyes look pretty damn tired in the morning (dark circles and all). It’s quick five or ten minute eye treatment that you use only once or twice a week. Simply pat the formula on your eye contour gently (I like to apply it in the figure 8 shape) and leave on for five to ten minutes and remove the excess with your usual eye makeup remover. You’ll feel a refreshing cooling sensation (nothing too intense) and that’s how you know it’s working. Suddenly those early wake-up calls seem easy peasy.
Recently someone asked me on Twitter what my favorite anti-aging eye treatment was, and for some reason that was a really tough question. I have a plenty of anti-wrinkle products that I use on a regular basis, but, ultimately it comes down to what works best for your skin, not to mention what you’re ultimately trying to get rid of. Fine lines? Crow’s feet? Dark spots? Depending on your concern, there’s a plethora of anti-aging eye treatments that can tackle your deepest (and sometimes darkest) insecurities. Here are my top seven anti-aging eye treatments that will correct, treat and prolong youthful looking skin.

What eye creams would you recommend for someone in their twenties? I’m looking for something to help with the prevention of wrinkles and reduce my bags.
-Eye Worry
As someone who’s always sampling new eye creams (there are so many on the market these days!), it’s important you purchase a product that works for you. Kudos for wanting to combat those under eye concerns early!
If you want to splurge on an eye cream (and I recommend this if you have many eye concerns), I love Philosophy’s Eye Hope ($49). It’s a light weight treatment that helps minimize fine lines, dark circles and puffiness as well as moisturizes and even helps brighten skin tone.
Finally, my latest obsession, a treatment and concealer rolled into one is Perricone MD ‘No Concealer’ Concealer ($45). You can read an extended explanation of why I love this product here, but long-story-short, I love this product for it’s anti-aging formula, SPF 35 and its camoflaging ability to conceal dark circles instantly.
