All about eyes.....Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment With Avacado



Being honest, I've only started to use eye creams over the last couple of years. Having never really felt that I needed to use them, as I still like to believe in my mind that I am only 21, rather than 31 (reality check needed!) I also, preferred spending my cash on other beauty essentials such as lip glosses, but once you hit your 30's, it's a must have.

The skin around my eyes gets quite dry, especially in the winter. The combination of cold weather and central heating blasting constantly doesn't help. I had been searching for the right eye treatment for ages, and I think I might just have found it.....

 

I haven't tried any Kiehl's products before now, but after noticing a couple of reviews of this 'creamy eye treatment' on various blogs, I decided to order it. It's not the most purse friendly purchase, but it does come in two sizes, 14ml and 28ml. So I though I would go for the smaller size first, to see if I liked it. The jar size isn't actually as small as I thought it would be, and will definitely last me for absolutely ages. The consistency is exactly as you would expect, extremely thick, the colour of avacado, reminding me of guacamole! It doesn't have any particular scent and even though it is super thick and very rich, a little goes a very long way.

I've been using this product for around four weeks now, and although it advises you to use twice daily, I only use it on an evening, as it can take a while to sink into the skin completely, so not really that practical for a busy morning when you want to slap your make-up on and get going. But to be fair, it's that good, using it only once daily seems to be all that is needed. I just pat it gently around the eye area and the skin is left feeling super soft and I even noticed on first use, that the skin around my eyes, (especially the inner corners) is noticeable less dry.

 

This product has definitely got me interested in trying more Kiehl's skin care..... I've got my eye on the Creme de Corps body lotion (hint hint if hubby is reading this.....)
