Because it is a gel-cream texture you have the hydration of a cream with the lighter consistency of a gel which leaves your under eye area well prepped and beautifully hydrated for makeup. It lends itself well when working with concealers and fighting the dreaded ‘concealer crease’, this lighter texture from being a ‘gel-cream’ hybrid means it doesn’t cause any creasing with my concealers (this maybe a skincare goodie that might make it into my pro kit). A new eye product recently joined The Body Shop’s Oils of Life skincare range – the Oils of Life New Intensely Revitalizing Eye Cream-Gel. One of it’s sister products – the Oils of Life Sleeping Cream– earned itself HG status in my book, so I was super excited to try this new guy out! Read on to find out how it worked for my combination skin. The Body Shop Oils of Life Intensely Revitalizing Eye Cream-Gel I’ve noticed a change in my under eye skin over the last couple of months in that it looks more dehydrated, not normally a complaint coming from my skin that tends to lie on the oiler side of the scale but I took this as a sign as needing to give the delicate area some much needed love and attention, or at least a bit more so. The Body Shop ‘Oils of Life’ Eye cream gel You can tell The Body Shop have put a lot of research and thought into these skincare products and I think it really is a lovely range and a great way to introduce yourself to oils and if you are familiar with oils then I’d say it’s a very good value for money range with lots of benefits, so go treat yourself.

Sounds good from the title doesn’t it? This is my favorite product in the Oils of Life range. I really do like using an essence lotion, see similar from 001 skincare. You can use this after cleansing and before serum or moisturiser, so it’s sort of like a toner. It gives your skin a nice light coverage of the lotion, nothing greasy feeling and revitalises your skin and prepares it for the next step in your routine. Essence lotions are very popular in Asia and aren’t as familiar over here, so it’s great to see The Body Shop adding one to this collection. If you are unsure, go into the shop and give it a little try, I’m pretty sure you’ll like it.You can buy The Body Shop Oils of Life Eye Cream at Ulta& The Body Shop.

I’ve been using this eye cream-gel for just over a week, day and night, and while I haven’t noticed any major differences in improvements of skin texture as yet, I do find it a very pleasant eye cream to use. It is hydrating whilst not heavy or occlusive, it’s a delight to apply with its cooling sensation and works well under makeup.This may seem quite a pricey product at first, but when compared to other facial oils on the market I would say it’s very good value for money. Facial oils have so many benefits and don’t make your skin feel greasy. Just a few drops can help to nourish and revitalize the skin, making it more radiant. A great tip with this is to apply it to your face then use the facial massager I was talking about. I love to apply this before bed and just let it do all the work. This face massager I must say is amazing. It’s cooling on the skin and you can feel it quite tightly too, in a nice way. It helps to boost the circulation across the face as well as reduce puffiness and wrinkles. Use it with the facial oil and follow the instructions on the box, they are very easy. A well-known thing about Caffeine isthat it improves the microcirculation of the blood vessels. Though conventional wisdom and anecdotal evidence says that this property is helpful for dark under-eye circles and puffy eyes, we have to mention that the double-blind research we have found about a 3% caffeine gel concluded that " the overall efficacy of the selected caffeine gel in reducing puffy eyes was not significantly different from that of its gel base." But you know, the proof is in the pudding.
