This is no secret… I love my lash extensions!! But sometimes, they are eclipsed by my puffy eyes. Luckily, the same company that makes my lash extensions also makes a great product to take care of the puffiness.
Xtreme Lashes has a full line of eye products, including my newest favorite product for the peepers, the Hydrating Under Eye Gel Patches. How well do these patches work? Check out these pictures from the other morning:
Here I am, bright and early. Ain’t I a beauty?
Clearly, I have no shame.
Anyway…
These soft patches are self-adhesive and fit comfortably under the eyes. They don’t lift, so once they are on, you can go about the rest of your morning routine. This particular morning, I put my hydrating under eye gel pads on and drove to meet a friend for coffee.
By the time I got to the cafe thirty minutes later, I had avoided many strange looks from people in other cars stopped at red lights next to me, AND… my eyes looked like this:
MUCH better!
Thanks to the lovely team at @XtremeLashes for providing my breakfast guests in Austin with these Hydrating Under Eye Gel Pads as part of our SxSW Survival Kit. They were much appreciated!
Ooh, I’ve been looking for a puffy eye solution! Are these the same folks who made your lashes so gorgeous for the Ford trip?

Yep! Those are the people!!
Bummer- I just checked their site and there isn’t a location in Kansas.

You can order the gel pads on line. As for no locations, if you can talk your favorite salon into it, they should do the training and offer the lash extensions. It’s the #4 most requested service in salons and spas right now.
Definitely worth looking into- your eyelashes were totally covetable!

I have always had puffy eyes and in recent years, I’ve noticed the darkness under them is getting harder and harder to fight with drugstore brand eye creams. My paternal grandmother had such severe black circles all around her eyes– I knew I was dealing with an inherited demon. I asked my dermatologist if there was ANYTHING on the market that would lighten my circles and she suggested the Olive Night Creme from Made from Earth Skin Care. After using up my first jar, I am coming back for more! This cream really does lighten the un-lightenable. It helps with the puffiness, too, but not as significantly as the dark circles. I almost look like a normal person instead of something from the raccoon family.
