Secret Concoction: Eye Cream and Vitamuffins
I had laser eye surgery (amazing! changed my life!) two years ago and now I'm especially cautious about always wearing sunglasses and never rubbing my eyes. Maybe I'm paranoid—but it was way too expensive to risk ever having to do it again. I also use the incredibly gentle Kiehl's eye makeup remover because it's the only one that doesn't sting.
Despite my precautions, my eyes were terribly puffy last weekend. I'm blaming allergies (have you read the science articles about the kudzu-like, pollution-mutated plants this season?) rather than the eight hours I spent in a Greenwich Village beer garden. My two-part solution: the new ZO Skin Health eye cream and frozen Vitamuffins, one on each eye (the latter are delicious after you've defrosted them on your face). And, if all else fails, a pair of tortoise Wayfarers totally count—in situations like these—as beauty items.
