Happy Tuesday to all!

Today I'm writing about my favorite thing of all....a product that simply works!

Recently, upon applying under eye concealer I noticed some crepey-ness around one of my eyelids which surprised me b/c I'm young and actually have pretty good skin.

So.... I panicked:) and ran to my skin expert who recommended this Meokine Intensive Wrinkle Corrector Care for Eye by Vichy that is supposed to 'unfold' the creases(crepey-ness), thereby smoothing the texture around my eye.

Even though I thought these were lofty claims I tried out the product, and I'm glad I did!
With the first application I noticed results! Even the concealer went on smooth, consistent, with no creasing or crepey-ness even after powder application!!!
Needless to say this is a product I would definitely recommend to anyone experiencing the same symptoms I mentioned above.

However, it is a bit pricey....so i added details and a direct link below for more info...or stop by your local Duane Reade Skin Wellness Center for samples:)

Product Details:
  • $35 for .50oz (but a little goes a long way)
  • White quickly absorbing cream that does not leave any greasy residue yet somehow still adequately hydrates
  • I love how you can use it all over the eye area even the lid!
  • No noticeable fragrance and does not bleed into the eye or sting

I Love Duane Reade!!!

I've found my new obsession in the form of a drugstore...Duane Reade!!!!!!!!!
If you're ever in the NYC area (and more specifically around Penn Station) you will discover a drugstore that defies everything you could have ever imagined.
You have to see it to believe it...it has an entire floor dedicated to BEAUTY and more importantly my favorite hard to find French skincare brands (like Vichy, La Roche-Posay, Lierac, etc).

You can have a pretty thorough skin analysis by an expert who will use a bunch of fancy instruments to examine your skin, recommend products, and give you a boatload of samples:)

If you are a beauty junkie you must experience this for yourself....then let me know what you think!

Happy Trails....
