I am always on the hunt for two specific beauty products: the perfect foundation and the perfect eye cream. When GLAM.com asked me if I would be interested in trying the new Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Synchronized Complex, I of course said yes. A gal always wants youthful peepers!

We are all guilty of basking in the glow of the sun for a little bit too long or while wearing too little sunscreen – or none at all. It is not too late to reverse some of the signs of sun damage that have already started to show up and the ones below the surface.

Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew anti-sun-damage daily moisture lotion and anti-sun-damage daily eye cream fight dark spots, fine lines, discolouration, uneven tone and dryness. (more…)
