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.

My magic Thai herbal massage ball!

I have a pain in my side, I don’t know what it is.  I don’t often feel like eating so I’ve lost some weight. My daughter went to Thailand last December and got me this magic Thai herbal massage treatment for a present.

She went to spa treatment in Thailand and she loved these herbal massage balls. Of course she  thought these massage balls might relieve my pain, although I never used Eastern Herbal treatment before. I just thought what the heck.

I learned that inside this massage ball is natural herbs and ingredients from Thailand: plai, lemongrass, galangal,  kaffir lime, tamarind leaves, som poi leaves, plub plung leaves, naad pao lung leaves, pao noi, ya kam hoi, and camphor. It helps to relieve pain muscle aches.

I sprinkled water on the massage ball and warmed in microwave for 1-2 minutes. Then I pressed it on my sore muscles. It felt good and I slept very well. I just found out that heating the ball in the steamer is THE BEST way. It seems to stay hot much longer than when I microwave it so I don’t need to keep reheat it as often. After finishing using it, I keep it in a dry place. Do not keep in the humid place like refridge like my first one – it did not last long.

It’s hard to find these thai herbal massage balls in the U.S. ,but I found the place to buy online. You can check it out at http://cosmetics.pro

Kirkland Daily Facial Cleansing Towelletes

Kirkland_FacialCleansingTowI got these Kirkland Facial Cleansing Towelettes from Costco a couple of months ago. I got a coupon and they were on sale, so I decided to give them a try. It’s a really good deal when you buy with the coupon.

The unique thing about these cleansing towels is that there’s no need to rinse them off.  They work as both cleanser, makeup remover and moisturizer at the same time. You just use one and leave it on, and it makes your facial skin moist. I use one to remove my makeup when I get back home after going out for a few hours in the morning. I hate to keep my make up on all day. I always remove makeup right away when I get home. It’s really worth the money.

These are gentle enough to remove make up and eyeshadow and mascara from my sensitive eyes. They’re soothing and refreshing. I love all the ingredients : Chamomile, Triple Tea Complex and Vitamin E – all good stuff for your facial skin. What I like the most about them is that I don’t need to reapply moisturizer anymore – so I save on skincare products. I also love that they come in small packs – so convenient when travelling.

Mistine BB Wonder Cream

I can’t leave the house without applying Mistine BB Wonder Cream. When I was first asked to try on this BB cream, I had my doubts and didn’t expect any miracles.  After finished applying all over my face and dark circles under my eyes, my face looked brighter and dark circles my eyes disappeared.  I have sensitive skin, but I felt no irration whatsover!  I have been using it for 6 months. It’s not only make up base, but also foundation SPF 30, whitening and anti-aging cream. It’s EVERYTHING in 1 tube. I saved a bunch of money because I don’t need foundation, concealer and sun screen. After applying toner and moisturizer, I apply this wonder cream and I’m ready to go. It’s light and not greasy. It’s easy to remove using only facial cleanser or makeup remover.

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.

Clinique Repairwear Intensive Eye Cream

clinique repairwear intensive eyecream

 

I got a sample of Clinique Repairwear Intensive Eye Cream from my good friend. She loves this product. I have a dark circles, puffy and a little bit dry so I think Clinique Repairwear Intensive Eye Cream would work solve the problem. I haven’ used it contiuously yet. From reading the ingredients – very promising – very hydrating, some whitening, and rich in antioxidants. It’s not only anti-aging, but also eye brightener also, GREAT!! Dinitely worth of a try!  Personally, I think this one will be suitable for late 30’s++, start to have more fine lines and wrinkles.  I love Clinique products ( except the thick yellow moisturizer) because it’s allergy-tested and fragrance-free which is perfect for me. I have allergy,  and sensitive skin. Sometime skin gets red, irritated easily. I give more review later..
