Review: Dermalogica's Total Eye Care with SPF 15

Greetings, my friends!

Bottom Line - this is a very good all around eye moisturizer, but it didn't hydrate my eyes enough to stop dehydration in cold and dry weather

Dermalogica:
Dermalogica is an American skincare company founded by Jane and Rey Wurwand in 1986. However, before the first Dermalogica products were made - in 1983, Jane, a U.K. trained skin therapist, opened "The International Dermal Institute" for licensed skin therapists to teach hands-on postgraduate level skincare training. Realizing there weren't products on the market which matched what she was teaching, Jane and Rey established Dermalogica. They decided they wanted a product line free of common irritants and ingredients which they felt led to breakouts, such as lanolin, SD alcohol, mineral oil, artificial colors, and fragrances - and that's exactly what they ended up creating.

Dermalogica Total Eye Care with SPF 15:
I used this (almost) exclusively for 2 years and consider it a good all-round eye cream. I didn't experience any eye irritation from the product, and one of the things I liked most about it was that it came with SPF 15 in it. A lot of eye creams do not come with SPF in them - which is a real shame since your eye area has the thinest skin and is more susceptible to early signs of aging. I understand that SPF tends to change the formula and can cause irritation in the eye area - but I think a lot of products are missing out on a great opportunity to help stop early signs of aging. Any who - I like this eye cream, but I didn't love this eye cream. For starters, I noticed that during the winter months (and sometimes during the Fall), I would see fine lines appear around my eyes. I used a little more than the recommended amount around my eyes to make sure that my eyes were covered, but it still didn't matter. I think this is a product better suited for people who live in warm and humid climates year round, then those of us that experience Fall and Winter. 

Stats:
This costs $53 for .5oz. A tube lasts about 6 months with twice a day application - which is not bad at all when you consider the cost of other eye creams.

You can buy this on Dermalogica's website (www.dermalogica.com), but it's also available at Dermstore.com, Skinstore.com, Blue Mercury, Ulta Beauty, Nordstroms, and many many other stores (http://www.dermalogica.com/authorized-retailers/authorized-retailers,default,pg.html), or at your local stockists (http://www.dermalogica.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-Dermalogica-Site/default/Stores-Find).

I do not recommend buying high-end beauty products from Amazon or eBay. While I love Amazon and eBay and most sellers are legitimate with quality products - beauty products tend to be highly susceptible to fraud. If you're going to spend your hard earned money, make sure you're buying what you think you're buying. 

That's it. Let me know if you have any questions.

Review: 6 Different SokoGlam Sheet Masks

Greetings, my friends! Bottom Line  - I would buy almost every mask again with the exception of the E-Nature mask. E-Nature: Per SokoGlam.com, E-Nature was founded on the principle of creating breakthrough formulas for your skin by fusing cutting-edge Korean technology with the safest and most effective natural ingredients. E-Nature's Squeeze Green Watery Sheet Mask: This mask was "okay." It's a cotton mask soaked in watery essence (not goo) which felt nice and cool on my face, but I didn't see any difference other than that it slightly hydrated my skin. It's meant to treat excess sebum, but I didn't notice a difference either. This costs $2.50, but I don't think I'll buy it again. Klavuu: Per SokoGlam.com, Klavuu is Korea's first marine pearl cosmetic brand that infuses natural pearl, essential oils, and marine plant extracts into their signature formulas. Natural pearls will enrich, hydrate, and firm the skin, for the most ra...
