Murad Intensive Wrinkle Reducer for eyes

Last month at the Total Beauty Blog Summit in Los Angeles we participated in a beauty tour with 20 other beauty bloggers, stopping at several beauty brands around the LA area including the Murad Spa in Manhattan Beach.

Truthfully, the most memorable part of our stop at Murad was Dr. Murad’s super-hot son Jeff . (And by super-hot, we really mean WEAK IN THE KNEES, CAPS LOCK WORTHY, SMOKING HOT.)

However, Jeff wasn’t the only treat we found at Murad.

Murad Intensive Wrinkle Reducer for eyes

A sample of Murad Intensive Wrinkle Reducer for eyes with Durian Cell Reform made its way into our hands and has become part of our daily regimen for the last couple weeks.

What’s amazing about this product is that you only need the teensiest, tiniest amount. Seriously, don’t even think about pressing the pump down all the way or you’ll have ten times too much. The consistency is so light, it absorbs instantly without leaving a greasy or heavy residue. It smells kind of clinical , but whatever, it’s a small price to pay.

We can’t be 100% positive, but we’re pretty sure this slashed a good FIVE YEARS off our age.

(You hear that, Jeff?)

Because life isn’t easy…

These last few months have been incredibly difficult here at Makeup Bag. Finding out our dad had liver cancer and losing him shortly thereafter has left us devastated.

The initial shock is beginning to wear off and we’re only now accepting the finality of it all.

This realization has left us a vacant, blubbering mess these last few weeks. Our tears have been endless, leaving our eyes sore, red and puffy (and driving our family crazy—our littlest daughter (age 5) finally told us last night, “Would you just STOP thinking about Grandpa already? All this crying just can’t be good for you.”)

Wei East Intensive Herbal Eye Treatment

Looking for a little reprieve, we turned to Wei East Intensive Herbal Eye Treatment. These herb-soaked pads gave our eyes instant relief with their cooling, pampering effect.

Each pad (soaked with a pure herbal blend of green tea, Tibetan chrysanthemum and peppermint extracts) is placed over the eyes while lying down for ten minutes. (Just so you know, we cheated: the first four minutes were purely relaxing, the last six minutes were spent reading our daughter a book with the pads folded in half so our eyes were uncovered—leaving the folded pad over just our puffy eye bags.)

Our eyes were immediately soothed and remarkably less puffy.

Wei East Intensive Herbal Eye Treatment is just $36 for 16 treatments and is available online at weieast.com.

WW Eye Cream by 3Lab

If you know anything about us, you probably know that we have a too many shimmer powders and a hopeless affection for eye cream. (Also, too many kids and gray hairs, but no need to dish about ALL our issues at once.)

3Lab WW Eye Cream

The newest favorite to join our accumulation of Eye Creams We Can’t Live Without is WW Eye Cream by 3Lab. We started using this over a month ago and we’re still amazed at its creamy texture and rich formula every time we apply it. Packed with vitamin B3 and 3Lab’s patented age reversal ingredient, Nano-Claire GY, this cream manages to de-puff bags, smooth wrinkles and suppress melanin production in the delicate eye area.

To top it off, the cream is just so luxurious, your face won’t feel the same without it.

WW Eye Cream by 3Lab is available for $250 at Barneys.com and Saks.com.

We love us some luxury eye cream and La Mer The Eye Concentrate is right up our alley.

With three unique forms of the exclusive La Mer Miracle Broth along with marine extracts and hematite—a dense mineral known for its magnetic energies—The Eye Concentrate works over time to restore radiance while soothing and calming the delicate skin around the eyes.

Also, it has a special silver-tipped applicator that’s designed to pick up the precise amount of product while promoting microcirculation with its cooling tip.

We can’t wait to try it!
