Enlivening Amino-AG Eye Treatment

A silky cream that hydrates and revitalizes the delicate eye area.

It said that this product has amino acids and powerful antioxidants to help hydrate the skin from the inside, which will improve its softness and prevent the signs of aging, reduce puffiness and diminish dark circles, help accelerate cell renewal and smooth the appearance of fine lines. All around the eyes.

Here’s how to use it:

Apply a small amount to fingertip and apply around orbital bone with a gentle patting motion. Use morning and night.

If there’s something I want you guys to know, it’s the importance of taking care of the eyes and the skin around the eye area. Apart from using non-harsh chemicals on the skin, it’s proper rest and non-abuse of our eyes. That’s probably why I was curious about the Japanese brand, boscia, and this particular product. No preservatives and eye treatment.

Let me know if you get to try it. I’d love to hear about your experience.

Available in Sephora

Tea Tree Oil has proved to be one of the things I make sure I have in my vanity kit. It’s the form of a concealer tube stick. Do you want to know why? It helps me preempt potential breakouts or zits and even cure them, sometimes.

I’m one of the lucky ones who hardly gets any zits. Funny cuz I used to get more breakouts when I was younger (probably due to puberty) but nowadays, I hardly get any even with the late nights and long work hours. Not to mention the dirt, pollution, and humidity.

Anyway, I recommend that you grab yourself a bottle esp if getting zits is one of your major skin problems.

Here’s how to use it:

Dab a small amount directly onto skin at the first sign of a blemish, using a clean cotton wool bud on your fingertips.

If you do it before you go to bed, you’ll notice that the zits will be drying up (or dried up even!) when you wake up. Believe me, it’ll be gone in a day or two.
