Musing of a Muse



Kiehl’s Creamy eye treatment with Avocado.

Hello Hydration!

Everyone knows how much I like eye creams, especially any that promise to solve all of my puffy eye problems, so you can imagine how excited I was to try Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado.
According to Kieh’s:

This creamy preparation with Avocado Oil, gently moisturizes the delicate eye area. Our unique, concentrated texture does not migrate into your eyes. Ophthalmologist-Tested. Dermatologist-Tested.


The Good…

Don’t let the avocado colored eye cream fool you; you won’t be stuck with green Shrek eyes all day after application. As far as the promise of hydration goes, this treatment delivered. It is the most hydrating eye treatment that I have ever tried (and I’ve tried many).



The Bad…

With the intense hydration comes intense slippage. So, if you like a product that you can just slap on quickly and then put your makeup over, this product is not for you. The eye treatment does not dry enough for concealer and eyeshadow application for at least twenty minutes, impractical for most people. My advice is to use it as a night treatment, before bed, and maybe on days off when you give your skin a break from makeup (do those days really exist?)
