Eye Brighteners

So you know those circles under your eyes that people talk of? Well, I never believed circles were considered 'bags under the eyes' or vice versa BUT the truth is that we all look tired sometimes... whether you are 22 or 82!

For various reasons we all suffer from some sort of dullness under the eyes....lack of sleep, stress, hangovers or heartaches. Sometimes mild, sometimes not.

Well whatever the issue is, don't worry about it because I will introduce you to the end-all, clear-all eye brightener and you will LOVE it!

The product(s) I am referring to is Benefit's 'EYE BRIGHT STICK' & 'OOH LA LIFT'. This is by far the absolute best and most wonderful product Benefit carries ( and I've used a lot of their products) BUT you must use this product-duo TOGETHER!! Otherwise, it just doesn't work. I even introduced it to my mother (who is in her 50's). She was hooked instantly and introduced it to all of her friends.

First, take the eye bright stick and start right under the brow line and around the bottom lid (don't worry about being messy, it will all blend perfect) Use the brightening stick to create a zebra/whisker look around the eyes.

THEN, use the 'OOH LA Lift' with just a dab at the top and bottom area of the eye. Rub in a circular motion to blend the thick cream stick with the liquid pump and you'll find yourself looking AMAZING & VERY BRIGHT!

Now remember this product(s) works as it's supposed to-you should NOT apply after you have applied a full set of face or eye makeup. You should use these products AFTER face primer, concealer, foundation or powder foundation BUT before bronzer, blush, eye primer, eye base, eye shadows etc.

OK?

Now, for my inside secret--I just started using the Sephora's eye bright stick and it works just as great as Benefit's 'Eye Bright'.

Also, remember the key is the stick! If you have the stick you can really use it with other various products that are similar to 'Oh La Lift' such as, Smashbox's Photo OP, Benefit's High Beam, Hollywood Glow etc...

It's all about the stick and the liquid brightener! Believe me, you'll see magic :-P

  1. UPDATE!! Sephora discontinued their EYE BRIGHT stick! I can not believe it. Last night I told the lady at Sephora that I've raged about this product and that they should not have discontinued it! I guess it's back to Benefit's eye bright! :-)
