On Day 2 My True Love Best Bestow onto me: Keihl's Creamy Eye Treatment

I wouldn't even be mad at the insinuation that my face is starting to resemble a blood hound's!

This cream is that good.

$25.50 for a .5 fl. oz pot

I received a tester of it after I went and bought the ludicrously priced, sinfully indulgent Creme de Corps Soy Milk & Honey Whipped Body Butter. The salesgirl asked if there was anything I would like to try, and, somewhat surprised, fetched me a sample of their avocado based eye cream. I do not think there is anything weird about being a (nearly!) 23-year-old woman who uses eye cream. That is the point - I don't care what Olay says, there's no reversing the signs of aging. I have to keep this skin in the immaculate condition it is in now.

What is particularly lovely about this eye cream is that it solves a problem you don't even realize is a problem until you try this. And no, it isn't anything to do with the quality your eyes - a sort of "I never realized how horrific my eyes really looked until I used Kiehl's!" No. If you have ever used eye creams before - I have used Olay's Regenerist Eye as well as their Regenerist Advaned Anti-Aging Roller, and have also tried out another of Kiehl's eye creams, the Abyssine Eye Cream (my kingdom for anyone who can tell me what Abyssine is, because all that comes rushing to my mind are cats) - then you may very well be familiar with the experience of having rich, innovative, anti-aging technology developed in the Swiss Alp/Paris/New York by top dermatologists seep into your eyes. They water. You cry some tears. You wash away most of the cream that is the culprit. This eye cream from Kiehl's, either serendipitously or purposely, I'm not sure, addressed this issue. It is such a viscous formula that is stays put on your eye where you dab it. I realize this may sound unpleasant, like globs of sickly green cream weighing down your lids, but this is not the case. You need to thoroughly dab the cream around your eyes, but it will go on clear, and you barely need any. A little sample envelope last me 2 weeks, morning and night application.

So buy some today for the friend you do not want looking like this:

also for Christmas, you could get me a Bloodhound puppy. So. Cute.

Oh, and before I forget, the use of avocado for skin treatment is as old as bad 90s talk television. If you don't think that it is worth the 25.50 - that is at least one dinner out with friends, or about 5 bags of peanut butter M&Ms - you can just follow the sage advice of Jenny Jones:
