I guess I know what all the hype is about
1 of 1 found this helpful I don't have any lines or wrinkles but the skin under my eyes just sort of started "looking funny" to me and makeup and coverup just makes it seem worse (crepe-y I guess is the term?) and I've become fixated on trying to make them look better. I've been trying all these eye creams up to $100 over the past year (which haven't done much to be honest) but resisted anything over that.
So, I guess its not good news for my wallet -- but the first time I used this La Mer I could tell the difference and now after 4 days I'm super impressed.
The skin under my eyes looks really smooth and moist again now and not weird and dry/crepey. Now to be able to afford this somehow ... (sigh). Maybe if I can just keep living off these samples...

This is my "go to" staple for a flawless look
I use mineral makeup and while it looks good, using the amount I need to get the coverage I want is way too masky and fake looking. Tried nearly a dozen brands of primer (some drugstore, some Sephora $$$$) but nothing has been as good as Smashbox photo finish light.
I used Smashbox photo finish but felt like I wished they had one for oily skin like mine - now they do, yay!!!!.
I'm on my second bottle (it lasts a long time, I buy one about every 4 mos). It makes your skin look so much better just putting it on -- then using makeup over it, you use way less makeup and look flawless. It helps control oil but doesn't make little lines worse and best of all, you don't get that gross "makeup turning orange" thing or fadeout at some point in the day when you use Smashbox primer underneath foundation.
It was especially awesome during some really nasty gross humid days this past summer. I stayed looking fresh. This was the only product I used that did that.
