Sleep. That’s really the only cure for those bags under your eyes. But, if that’s not in the cards – and is it ever in the cards for new parents? – then there is something out there that approximates the look of a rested face. It’s called Ooh La Lift by Benefit Cosmetics.
There are so many products on the market that are geared to making a woman’s face appear younger, more supple, well rested. While Ooh La Lift isn’t the magic cure-all, it actually does what it says it is going to do.
Ooh La Lift is like concealer, only the cream is pink with a little shimmer to it. The shimmer isn’t truly noticeable, it simply reflects the light a bit so the dark circles don’t appear so dark. And the pink is a good color to mask the greenish black hue that those bags are made of.
Now, if you have puffy bags under your eyes, then this may not be the right makeup for you. However, the sales girl did mention leaving it in the fridge so that the coolness would reduce swelling. The age-old cure for swelling under the eyes is cold cucumbers (or Preparation H, actually) but who has the time to slice cucumbers or the stomach to put hemorrhoid cream on your face in the morning?
If you’re in need of a little ooh la lift, give this little tube of wonder a try.
