Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you woke up to perfect skin, bright and awake eyes that are free of eye wrinkles? Unfortunately, this wish has yet to come true! With this in mind, eye patches are a great alternative to cooling agents such as cucumbers and tea bags. Left on for about 20 minutes, they work to soothe, moisturize and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and puffiness. Here are some great eye patches I have tried. I have selected 3, with varying price ranges, depending upon your budget!
MD Skincare Instant Beautification Eye Area Firming Patch 6 pairs. This, by far is my favorite eye area firming patch. This patch works to pull water from underneath the skin to the surface, which in turns, helps to plump. The patch also works to reduce eye puffiness
. They are extremely easy to apply and you only need to use them twice a week, AM or PM!
As soon as the patch is remove, you will instantly see a reduction in eye wrinkles and creases. They patches give your skin the intense moisture, vitamins and antioxidants it needs to help skin growth, build collagen and reduce eye wrinkles in the long-term. You can find 6 treatments of this product for $69.
Thalgo Wrinkle Control Eye Patch Mask ($54) I like Thalgo because they base their products on marine algae and other riches of the sea for aesthetic uses! It’s an extremely natural product that works to smooth out your eye contour, while reducing the appearance of eye wrinkles
and fine lines. Thalgo’s patches hydrate, repair and soothe your entire eye area! You can get 10 treatments for $54.
Klorane Cornflower Smoothing and Relaxing Patches for Tired Eyes These eye patches are rich in cornflower, arnica and chamomile extracts. They work to reduce signs of tiredness, whether it is due to lack of sleep or sun exposure. After the patch is taken off, you will see immediate signs of reduced dark circles
, eye puffiness and an over all fresher look. Klorane patches are gentle for sensitive skin, soothe your eye area and work to decongest your eyes. You can get 7 treatments for $18!
Avoid Eye Wrinkles by Learning How to Correctly Apply Eyeliner

The whole point of using makeup is to accentuate your features and make you more beautiful. If you don’t know the correct way to apply your makeup, you could be doing just the opposite. We are going to help you learn the appropriate way to apply eyeliner in order to avoid eye wrinkles and give yourself a natural, healthy look!
It’s very common to apply eyeliner to your top lid by pulling on the outer area of your eye. Interesting enough, this method of applying eyeliner can actually contribute to under eye wrinkles. Not only this, putting eyeliner on this way will leave you with jagged and uneven lines when you release your eye skin to the normal position.
The best way to put on eyeliner is to gently pull up on the center part of your eyelid. This does two things. First, it gives you a good view of your eye. Second, it will help you draw a straighter, more even line across your lid.
If you are just starting out with eyeliner, be sure to use a lighter shade for a more natural look. Also, avoid using liquid eyeliner for your lower eyelids. Be sure to not create thick lines! These will make your eyes appear tired and highlight your flaws.
Overall, remember to protect the skin around your eyes. Completely remove all eye makeup before going to sleep and use an eye cream. Unfortunately, no amount of eyeliner or makeup can completely conceal dark circles, eye puffiness and fine lines. So moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!!!
Product Review: Shiseido Benefiance NutriPerfect Eye Cream
April 10, 2009 by Product Reviewer
Filed under Product Reviews, Shiseido
The Shiseido skin care line just recently released a complete eye skin care treatment called Benefiance NutriPerfect Eye Serum. This eye cream was created to address the hormonal changes in women related to aging. As we age, many different hormones in our bodies change which causes the visible signs of aging. This is often called the hormone theory of aging. Commonly, less oil is secreted and women experience dryer skin.
With dryer skin come eye wrinkles.
Shiseido skin care has a NutriPerfect Eye Serum formulated with Carnosine DP, this serum improves eye wrinkles and the loss of firmness (reduction of collagen production) that the skin so often experiences due to aging. Carnosine, often called a longevity nutrient, is the anti-aging and anti-oxidant dipeptide that provokes cellular rejuvenation.
This shiseido skin care eye serum also contains multi-vitamin BCE which is a nutritive supplement especially improving the skin around the eyes.
Shiseido Benefiance NutriPerfect Day Cream SPF15 50ml/1.7oz
Brand new from Shiseodo! I haven’t even seen any reviews on this one yet. Pick yours up and be the first to review!
Must-Do Beauty Regimen: Masks!
March 7, 2009 by Beauty Editor
Filed under Eye Skin Care
I recently read an article in Shape Magazine talking about the importance of applying masks three times a week as part of you anti aging and eye skin care regimen. That’s right – 3 times a week!
The latest masks are potent, thick and packed with anti aging ingredients for relief of eye puffiness and dark circles.
“Even though they’re only on your skin for 10-20 minutes, it’s because they’re so thick and heavy that they’re able to penetrate and drive their heavy duty, age-busting ingredients deep within your skin – and quickly”, says Jeanette Graf, M.D., a dermatologist in New York.
Among some of the new, hard-core masks Shape.com recommends are:
1. Aveda Enbrightenment Brightening Intensive Massage Mask (fades dark spots with vitamin c and mulberry root extract)
2. ReVive Masque de Glaise (promotes cell recovery and turnover for relief of those eye bags)
Another mask that I absolutely love (also happens to be by one of my favorite skin care brands) is Juice Beauty’s Green Apple Hydration Mask. (It feels cool and refreshing, also utilizing natural ingredients!)
Masks are great because not only are they fun to put on (by yourself our with some girlfriends), refreshing and revitalizing, but they are great for spot-treating your problem areas.
Olay Eye Products Reduce Eye Wrinkles Within Your Budget

In an industry full of over-priced and over-marketed products, it’s so refreshing to see a cosmetics company provide effective products at affordable prices. Oil of Olay has been around for years and continues to evolve and create groundbreaking products that don’t break the bank. Olay Regenerist eye products consistently get rave reviews, and I’ve heard great things about their Professional ProX line as well.
One of the best things about Olay is that when you buy their products online rather than in a store, they often give you perks like free shipping, free samples and discounts on future purchases. Who doesn’t love free stuff and discounts? They are even more welcome and appreciated in this challenging economy.
I especially like the Olay ProX line, because it contains age repair lotion SPF to combat eye wrinkles and an eye restoration complex for firming and brightness.
Do you use any Olay eye products? If so, leave a comment and share your results!
