La Mer Introduces The Eye Balm Intense.

I am on the constant search for the holy grail of eye creams and treatments. Just when I think I may have found it, a better one comes along. Such is this new beauty from La Mer that launches this month. The Eye Balm Intense is everything I could want in an eye cream, and more.

The Eye Balm Intense is powered with a triple concentration of La Mer’s seaborne elixir—The Miracle Broth™, state-of-the-art Marine De-Puff Ferment™ and exclusive Lifting Ferment™. What does that mean? It means it works with some of the most powerful ingredients made, and it works well and fast. I have only been using the Eye Balm Intense for a few days and some results are almost immediate.

I love how the Eye Balm Intense immediately comforts my entire eye are with a gentle cooling sensation as I apply. It noticeably hydrates the area and depuffs as it smoothes it overall. Over time, I am told that I will continue to see the results as puffiness will dramatically decrease and fine lines and wrinkles smooth out even more.

Do not let the name "balm" fool you though. When I think of a balm, I think of a lip balm or a more solid form of treatment. While Eye Balm Intense looks rich, it goes on feeling like a lotion, not heavy at all, but hydrating.

I do not use the applicator when applying, but purchasing the Eye Balm Intense at full size, comes with its special cooling silver-tipped applicator. This applicator was created to help stimulate micro-circulation, working in synergy with The Eye Balm Intense to help aid in de-puffing, while specifically designed to pick up the precise amount of product needed for each application.

The Eye Balm Intense, which will retail for $145, will be available this month at select Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, and online at lamer.com.

Two New Ceramide Innovations from Elizabeth Arden.

Last week, I enjoyed a much needed facial at the Red Door Spa and some of the Ultra Restorative products were used.  My skin looked and felt more than amazing after.  When I was told that there were a few more Ceramide products being added to the line up, I was quite excited.   Ceramide Plump Perfect Ultra Lift and Firm Eye Cream SPF 15 and Ceramide Plump Perfect Ultra All Night Repair and Moisture Cream for Face and Throat are sure to be at the fore front of anti-aging innovations as arethe rest of the products in the line.

Ceramide Plump Perfect Ultra Lift and Firm Eye Cream SPF 15 is a lightweight yet intensive eyecare formula, which plumps up the look of fine lines and crow’s feet as it lifts and firms the appearance of skin in the delicate eye area for a younger, more rested look.

Paired with an eye cream, what would be a better match than a soothing, highly moisturizing night cream, perfect to keep your skin looking renewed and fresh for the morning? Ceramide Plump Perfect Ultra All Night Repair and Moisture Cream for Face and Throat is an intensive rejuvenating cream that helps to plump, lift and firm the look of skin for a more contoured, sculpted appearance as it boosts essential moisture.
