The €39 beauty buy that will instantly make your skin look younger and fresher

Goodbye, dark circles!

Goodbye, tired morning face.

Tired of being told how tired you look? Or feeling like you can’t hide those not-enough-sleep nights as well as you once could?

Yup, us too. Those dark circles are becoming harder to mask by the day, I feel.

However, last week, I was lucky enough to test out a new beauty product by Kiehl’s and I swear, it literally did exactly what it said on the tin – and then some.

Say hello to Kiehl’s Youth Dose Eye Treatment, the product I am sure you, like myself, have been searching for since, well, forever.

This little wonder cream is sort of a halfway house between eye cream and concealer, I feel, the way it literally in an instant smooths and brightens your under-eye area. All you need to do is apply three little dots of the cream under your eye, and gently pat them into your skin. Then just watch as your eyes all of a sudden seem younger and fresher and a lot less tired looking.

Even better? Used over time (you can use it twice a day, morning and evening) it will also help reduce fine lines around eyes, eye puffiness and more pronounced dark circles.

Having tested it for a week now, I can hand on heart say I have had two people ask me about what make-up I was wearing as they thought I looked “fresher” and “more glowy” and both times I wasn’t actually wearing any makeup at all – only my regular moisturizer, the Youth Dose Eye Treatment and a lick of lipgloss!

I mean; I love that it will help my skin over time too, but I cannot even begin to tell you how much I love the instant effect it has when I apply it in the morning, making me look like I actually have gotten the full eight hours (which I must admit I never do).

So there you have it. If you are looking to make one good skincare buy this month, I cannot recommend this one enough.
