Kiehls Midnight Recovery Eye




A superb companion to Midnight Recovery Concentrate, Midnight Recovery Eye helps to improve skin's appearance around the eye. With the same naturally derived ingredients as Midnight Recovery Concentrate, as well as Butcher’s Broom, this night treatment leaves under-eye skin feeling replenished. Midnight Recovery Eye’s cream texture is specifically formulated for the delicate eye area. 

It improved the look of my dark circles pretty much over night, It's absorbs quickly with little effort, you only need a tiny amount each night. Value for money due to the miniscule amount required nightly. It is a light weight, hydrating treatment that just transformed my tired, puffy eyes into youthful, fresh eyes like I've had 14 hours sleep! It really is a great product, I think it works amazingly well with Kiehls midnight Recovery concentrate together they are a dream team..

The tube is 15ml and sells for £24.50 with I think is about average for a high end brand, if you suffer from dark circles, dry or puffy eyes, you need to get a sample and try this.. You won't regret it! Kiehls is such a great brand..once I finish this I want to try the Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Eye Cream, it sounds fantastic!

What's your favourite Eye cream?

Elemis Cellular Recovery Skin Bliss Capsules Duo Limited Edition

Celebrating 10 years of Cellular Recovery Skin Bliss Capsules, this Gorgeous looking Anniversary Edition contains 2 supersize jars with 60 rose capsules and 60 lavender capsules presented in a keep-sake box. How pretty is this packaging as soon as I saw it I wanted to own it... Doesn't it remind you of a certain posh jewellers?!



The Rose capsules hydrate, soften and stimulate endorphins during the day while the Lavender capsules help restore cell metabolism and maximise cell repair overnight. The antioxidant power of moringa oil is proven to be up to 1700% more powerful than that of other cosmetic oils. Moringa Oil helps to physically repair visible signs of ageing by sweeping clean the skin cell matrix, ridding it of harmful toxins and allowing nutrients to be absorbed more effectively.



It also includes 2 very cute (empty) mini travel jars. Perfect for taking your capsules away with you on holiday. Each capsule gives just the right amount of product, they smell amazing and soak into my skin like a dream, my skin is looking hydrated, more rested and youthful. I'm loving the Lavender scent at night, I find it very relaxing!. A gorgeous present to give your Mum on Mothers day, this beautiful duo is worth £124.00 but is at a special price of £79.50 on Time to spa.co.uk, giving you a great saving, it should last you just over two months.




I think Elemis are a fantastic company as in celebration of this milestone, Elemis are partnering with the charity 'Wellbeing of Women' and are donating £15,000 to support the technological development of a ground breaking device for gynecological surgery. If that's not a reason to purchase this lovely little duo what is?!

kiehls midnight recovery concentrate

The Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate is a night serum designed to help repair your skin as you sleep and deliver hydration and balance your skin with its key ingredients of squalene and evening primrose oil and my favourite part of this serum is – lavender oil. The Midnight Recovery Concentrate is infused with the wonderfully relaxing scent of lavender. I started using this about one month ago not only has it improved my skin massively, I've also noticed I sleep better?!  

I love the deep blue glass bottle this elixir comes in. With the hygienic dropper squeeze top that dispenses just enough serum, I put 2-3 drops on the tips of my fingers warm it up and then lightly press the product into my skin the gently rub in - sort of giving myself a mini facial massage, which adds to my relaxation. I noticed almost immediately how velvety my skin felt. There are no silicones nor parabens in the Midnight Recovery Concentrate. It does not feel nor look oily if used correctly and my skin feels plumped and hydrated. It actually feels like water which my skin just drinks it up straight away.

It absorbs and dries quickly. Kiehl’s says your skin will look visibly better in the morning. I tested this theory in the 2 weeks that I used only the Midnight Recovery Concentrate without night cream. Yes it does look good in the morning. It looks rested and better and I feel more rested too! I attribute it to the lavender oil that helps me relax so I sleep better and so with my body relaxed, of course the skin will look better. I use it now with night cream and things are looking pretty good. Somehow the combination just works.

Overall I am very very impressed with this, my skin is looking better especially my forehead which had some serious frown lines from not wearing sun glasses and of course frowning too much... Blame my Husband!! I really can see an improvement and reduction in them, making them more softer allowing my foundation to sit smoothly on top. 30ml costs £36.00 but as you only use 2-3 tiny drops it'll last you forever!. I really want to try the eye cream that is part of this collection... *adds to wishlist*
