Review | Khiel's Creamy Eye Treatment

I'd always heard through the beauty blogging grapevine that Kiehl's products were worth their salt but I hadn't got round to trying anything until recently. My eyes always tend to get dry and sore coming into the winter and I wanted something to help combat that. I was initially looking for the Midnight Recovery Eye Treatment but the very friendly sales assistant pointed me towards this as it's richer and creamier and gives more intense moisturisation. 

Ingredients:
Avacado Oil helps to restore moisture and contains vitamins A,D and E.
Beta-Carotene is a natural antioxidant derived from carrots and produces Vitamin A.
Shea Butter is a natural fat which protects the skin from dehydration. 

Claims:
To gently moisturise the delicate eye area.
The formula is Ophthalmologist and Dermatologist tested and does not migrate into eyes.

Review:
This product definitely lives up to it's claims! Its such a rich creamy formula and it sinks in to the delicate skin around the eyes really quickly. It leaves my eyes lovely and soft, improves the appearance of bags in turn making them look brighter and more awake.
I initially tried using it in the morning, however I found it doesn't sit right under makeup, my eyeliner would be halfway down my face by lunchtime! So now I only use it as a night time cream and have found this to work really well.
It is quite pricy but it's very rich and creamy so only a small amount is needed for each application, meaning it lasts quite a long time.

I'd definitely recommend this if you tend to get sore, dry eyes especially around autumn and winter, and also if you're too young for wrinkle cream but want to start taking care of your skin early... prevention is better than cure!

Have you tried any of Kiehls Eye products?

July Favourites

This month I have been really trying to slim down my makeup bag because it's not good for my back to keep carting it around... only joking its not that big. I have been loving my Bareminerals foundation since my April favourites and the way it's improved the look of my skin has inspired my to use much lighter products with more natural ingredients. 
This concealer is specifically for under eyes, it's like a lovely creamer moisturiser with a hint of colour to cover any darkness. Two in one eye cream and concealer significantly speeds up my getting ready time. What's not to love! See my review for more deets.
This became one of my favourite favourites very quickly! It's longlasting, its really moisturising without being sticky and its a lovely colour. See my review here :)
I got this bronzer free with my subscription to look magazine a while back, and its perfect. Its matte, it's not too dark so really nice for fair skin, and it blends really well. I've been wearing this every day this month with a little bit of peachy blush :)
This Bare Minerals Foundation has changed my life.. no exaggeration. When I first tested it, I wasn't sure how such a light powder would ever be able to give me enough coverage. It is light coverage but because it's so light an lets your skin breath unlike liquid foundations, my skin has drastically improved! It's clearer and more even toned so I sometimes even dare to go bare faced... Can't rave about this enough.

That's all folks!
What have you been loving through July?

Thanks for reading,
