Late Start Plus Puffy Eyes

Ugh, case of the Mondays indeed. I just could not get going this morning and didn't get out of bed until nine. I think it had to do with the fabulous and tiring trip to Chicago Mr. M and I took with friends this weekend. We spent hours walking around, followed by lots of pre-dinner cocktails, then an amazing three hour dinner at Benny's Chop House, then more cocktailing into the wee hours. Naturally, I woke up Sunday with a serious case of puffy and swollen eyes. There's one product I always have on hand when puffs show up and that's La Roche-Posay Hydraphase Eyes. This refreshing gel contains caffeine to diminish bags and puffiness, plus glycerin and thermal spring water to soothe dry, irritated eyes. 

The trick is also in the application: dot all around the eye area and massage gently in circular motions to decongest puffs. Once fully absorbed apply light pressure to your temple area and puffs magically disappear. Lightly tapping on the gel around the eye area helps to smooth dehydrated fine lines. Pick it up at CVS drugstores nationwide or online at laroche-posay.us.
