Favorite Product #2
In today's rep newsletter, the tip for this week was about how we can sell the June specials. Not much of a tip to share with you! So, I will continue to add a new favorite product to my blog instead! I picked this product because I got a question from someone about what they can do about dark circles under their eyes. Well, one of my favorite products combats those dark circles, puffiness, fine lines and hydrates too. It's no wonder this product is a favorite among many of my customers and representatives too! Can you guess what it is? 
Optimize Rejuvenating Eye Serum
has worked wonders on my dark circles. They are not completely gone but they are greatly diminished. There are a ton of reasons why people have dark circles under their eyes but I bet mine are related to my allergies. It could also be hereditary as well. Plus, every year I get older (imagine that!) and there is less and less collagen in my skin. It acts as a barrier so the thinner your skin gets (less collagen) then the more likely you are to see the blood vessels underneath. Great!
I found this little tidbit from Wikipedia: "In most cases the dark circles under the eyes are blood vessels that can be seen through the skin. The skin around the eyelids is the thinnest skin in the body. Like varicose veins, dark circles under the eyes are usually an inherited trait. When blood passes through the large veins close to the surface of the skin it can produce a bluish tint. The more transparent the skin the darker the circles appear. In people with a deep-set bone structure, shadowing contributes to the dark color under the eyes."
I also found an informative article on The New York Times that says, "[T]he most likely culprit causing chronic dark circles, dermatologists say, is excess pigmentation in the skin. Dilated blood vessels that sit close to the thin under-eye skin are another cause, doctors said. And airborne allergens, which cause blood to pool in the vessels under the skin, can worsen their appearance."
So, what can we do about them? Well, drinking lots of water and getting enough rest is a basic remedy. You can also put sliced cucumbers on your eyes too. It's a temporary fix since the cucumber is 90% water and it is the cooling effect of the water that helps more than the actual cucumber. It does calm, soothe and reduce the puffiness but it doesn't last very long. In fact, I stumbled across a blog called My Dark Circles and it has a few articles about some natural remedies that were interesting to read too.
Still, I think the best way to treat those dark circles is by using Optimize Rejuvenating Eye Serum. It contains these key ingredients that pack a powerful punch:
* Matrixyl™ 3000: Peptide system that firms and decreases visible wrinkles within two months of twice daily use
* Sweet Almond: Patented almond proteins help remodel skin’s surface to visibly lift and smooth wrinkles and fine lines
* Eyeliss™: Peptide system that strengthens capillary walls; stimulates lymphatic circulation to improve sagging contours, firmness and elasticity; visibly reduces under eye “bags”
* Haloxyl™: Peptide system that visibly reduces the look of dark under eye circles; firms sagging contours around the eyes
So, what do all those peptides do? They help build collagen which is your skins natural filler that keeps your skin nice, plump and youthful looking. The more collagen you have, then the less you will be able to see the blood vessels under the skin!
How do you properly use this product? Start with a clean face then use your toner. Squirt a TINY (less that a full pump) amount onto your ring finger. Tap it together with your other ring finger. Gently pat under your eyes and up around your eye brow bone. Do not rub or tug at the delicate skin or you will cause more wrinkles! Dab until it dries then apply your repair product and then moisturizer. Pretty easy!
