Yoga for Eyes

Eyes have muscles that work all the time. Working on the computer all day or focusing on small things really makes your eyes tired. You need to exercise your eyes to keep their strength so they will last a long time. Here is the yoga way to exercise your eyes.

allabouteyes_yogaStep 1. Hand cubbing. Take off your glasses or contact lenses. Rub your plams together to generate warmth and continue rubbing until they feel fairly warm. Then place your palms of your hands over your closed eyes for a minute. While absobing the heat, breath deeply and feel your stomach fill with air deeply.
Step 2. Side to Side. Next put both hands by your sides, open your eyes and move your eye balls to the extreme left. Then move to the right as far as you can. Repeat 4 times. Then, repeat step 1 with a deep breath and take your hands off. Rub hands together until you feel warm and put hands on eye lids again. Relax and deep breath.
Step 3. Diagonal. Move eyeballs from top right to bottom left like you’re crossing your eyes. Repeat 4 times. Then rest by closing your eyes.
Step 4. Clockwise. Move your eyes in a full circle clockwise, then repeat the same action counterclockwise. Repeat 4 times.
Step 5. Up and Down. Move your eyes upward as far as you can. Then move them downwards as far as you can. Repeat this four more times. Close your eyes and rest.
Step 6. Contraction. Close your eyes as tightly as you possibly can, then squeeze the eyes until your eye muscles are fully contracted. Hold this contraction tight for few seconds, then let it go quickly.

This is the perfect way to exercise your eyes and keep them healthy and strain reduction.

Organic 100% Pure Coffee Bean Eye Cream

100Percent_coffee_bean_eye_creamI have used many kinds of eyecare creams but then they all ran out. I liked HydroPeptide eye cream, but it was discontinued. Nothing is working for my puffy eyes and serious dark cirlces.

After researching and reading reviews , I decided to try 100% Pure Coffee Bean Eye Cream. First of all, it really has good reviews and the price is right. $19 for eye treatment is really hard to find. Plus I love organic products and like all the ingredients used in this natural eye cream such as green tea, rosehip oil, coffee, vitamin E, vitamin C, pure vanilla and rosemary.

I believe that caffeine-rich green tea and coffee will depuff  and reduce swelling under my eyes. Hope it will help reduce my serious dark circles and brighten them up. I’ll be sure to post a review after using it for few weeks.

Eye drop for your important eyes

Systane-Lubricant-Eye-Drops

I have been trying many brands of eye drops but my eyes always dry out, maybe because of my allergies. It’s hard to find the right eye drop to relieve dry eye problems.And then my eye doctor gave me a sample of Systane Lubricant eye drop, and I’ve been hooked on it ever since. I don’t need to use much of this because once a day seems to be plenty. It keeps my eyes moist all day long. And when I put on eyeshadow, mascara and it won’t irritate my eyes.

To be honest, the price is still expensive even though I bought a big 2-pack from Costco. Recently my husband got another brand “Refresh Plus Eye Drop” from Costco because of the price hoping it would be the same as Systane, but it’s not. I have to keep applying it throughout the day. I’m using a computer all day, so my eyes dry out and I need to keep putting in my eye drops.

Now I realize that Systane is the only eye drop that can keep my eyes moist. I’m going to go back to using Systane when this bottle runs out.

Dr. Brandt Lineless Eye Cream

DrBrandt_LinelessEyeCream

I’ve used Dr. Brandt Lineless Cream before and I love it. I’m always looking for eye treatment because my eyes are often puffy and have dark circles. I tried Dr. Brandt Lineless Eye Cream only at night for few weeks. Seemed like it did the trick. When I woke up, the puffiness under my eyes seemed diminished. After washing my face, I could feel how the eye cream kept my eyes hydrated – no fines lines and dryness under my eye circles.  Maybe I should apply it in the morning too.

Dermalogica Soothing Eye Make-Up Remover

Rating : 9/10
I’m a fan of Dermalogica Brand. I’m using many Dermalogica skincare products such as Ultracalming Cleanser for Face and Eyes, Intensive Eye Repair, Total Eye Care SPF, Barrier Repair etc. I feel like their products are very natural, smell so good and are gentle enough for my sensitive skin. It didn’t get red when applied like other products I ever used. I see from the ingredients list – lots of good stuff from natural plants and flowers for your skin. My favorite ingredient is lavender.

AAE_DermalogicaEyeMakeupRem

I’d like to give a review of Dermalogica Soothing Eye Make-up Remover that I got as a sample when I ordered another skincare product. I’m kind of surprised to learn that they have a makeup remover for eyes. Maybe I didn’t look throughly when I searched for products. It’s very clear, almost watery, but gently removes all makeup, mascara, eye shadow without leaving a trace. It smells good and soothing. I’m satisfied with it. I think I’ll order the full size soon.

Dermalogica UltraCalming Cleanser for Face and Eyes

Dermalogica Ultracalming Cleanser for Face and Eyes

Rating : 9.8/10

After my close friend told me about her favorite facial cleanser Dermalogica Ultracalming Cleanser for Face and Eyes, I decided to try it. It comes in a sensitized skin kit when it’s on sale, and now it has become my favorite facial cleanser/facial massage. I’m using morning and night so I bought a big salon size for the great value. I have been using it for a year. I agree with her it’s ultra-gentle which is perfect for my combination-oily, sensitive skin. I also use as makeup remover as well.

What I love about this product is that it doesn’t irritate my eyes so it is also great for facial massage. I apply on my face, then do my Japanese facial massage, then cleanse and rinse it off with warm water.

Eye Treatment for Extreme Dark Circles

HydroPeptide Eye Extreme Dark Circle Concentrate

Rating : 9.2/10

Sometime you found the treasure by accident. I got the sample of HydroPeptide Eye Extreme Dark Circle Concentrate when I ordered other skincare products. At first it didn’t seem interested to me becauase of the package. The old eye cream ran out so I tried this concentrate eye cream at night because of the peptide ingredients. After a few days, I can see my eye bags diminished very quickly when I saw my face in the mirror. So I keep using this eye treatment at night and use Lancome High Resolution Eye Collaser 5X at day time and the result is GREAT! After couple weeks, I can see that the area that I have been dabbing the eye cream on is smooth and firm, dark circles is less and less.. I think the eye cream works EXTREME good as it stated. capillaries started disappear. I’ll buy when the sample run out!

How your eye bags can disappear in 2 days!!

Lancome High Resolution Eye Collaser 5X

Rating : 9.2/10

Maybe because of the bad genetic and allergy, working very late at night, my eyes starts puffy since I was in late 20’s. I have been suffering with this. Now dark circles, puffiness under my eye area was getting worse. Whatever eye creams I tried, my eye bags never go away, dark circles still the same like Panda. I went to consult with Meera, my friend and the beauty expert. She suggested me and give me some  LANCOME  HIGH RÉSOLUTION EYE COLLASER-5X™ - intensive collagen anti-aging eye serum to try on. I didn’t use everyday at first because I was using Dermalogica Eye Repair at that time. Now I’m ready to experiment the new product. I like the feeling and look when I applied this serum on. Once I just dropped this serum on my eye, the cream turned to be light pink. It looks like the eye serum complex worked instantly. I have been using this Lancome eye serum for almost 3 weeks. I must say that this Lancome eye serum is amazing and a great product. My eye bags invisibly getting much less appear, dark circles is almost all disappear.
