The End of Dark Circles?: VIIcode Eye Mask for Dark Circles Review!

Note: This product was sent to me for review purposes. As always, all opinions are 100% my own. I always keep it real for you all! :)

Those of you who’ve been following my blog for a while now know that my biggest skincare struggle is my under eye area. Dark circles, fine lines, puffiness, you name it, I’ve got it going on over there. I’m basically always trying out new products for that area, so when I was asked to try out the VIIcode Eye Mask for Dark Circles, I was very intrigued. I had never actually tried out an eye mask before, so I had pretty high hopes that this would make a difference for me.

These are a gel formula mask that you apply to your under eyes for 8 hours two or three times a week.

After having tried out a box of there (there are 6 pairs per box), I’ve actually started to notice a difference with these. A full treatment takes 3 boxes, but after 1 box, I’ve noticed my under eye area is smoother and much more hydrated. My dark circles haven’t completely gone away (I still need my unde reye concealer!), but I do think the darkness has faded somewhat.

Putting these on is a really relaxing experience. The masks are so cooling and comfortable under the eyes. I also love the gel formula, which means that there is no dripping like you can have with sheet masks. I also highly recommend popping these in the fridge before putting them on, especially if you struggle with puffiness.

Since you have to apply them for 8 hours, which is different than with any other mask I’ve tried, I like to use these when I’m either spending a day in at home or while I’m sleeping.

So: are these worth it?

They were a little big for my face, but you can always trim them. I kept the full thing on because it felt sooooo nice and cooling.

I think these are absolutely worth it, if you’re someone like me who has many issues going on with your under eye area. I noticed that my under eye concealer now goes on so much smoother and looks so much better because my fine lines have been smoothed out and my under eyes have been hydrated. These are definitely worth a shot if you have problematic under eyes.

1 Year of Covid-19: A reflection

It feels like just yesterday we were all feeling the anxiety and uncertainty of a new disease that was spreading quickly around the world that no one truly understood yet. We were facing the first wave of cases, the fear of going outside and being around people and the first round of quarantines and restrictions. It feels like just yesterday, but also so long ago. I, and I am sure many others, am feeling a mix of emotions. Sad for the loss of comfort we once had. Grief for all the lives lost and permanently changed. Thankful for my health and that of my family. Gratitude for the scientists and frontline workers alike, working tirelessly behind the scenes I hope that one day we can return to a new normal. I hope that one day I'll be able to go to work and not feel afraid to get too close to my coworkers and patients. I hope that no one will ever again have to face the end of their lives all alone. I hope that no one has their life cut short because of an insidious virus that

Blogilates Beginner's Calendar 2.0: Review & Final Update

I've officially completed all 28 days of the Blogilates Beginner's Calendar and firstly, I have to say that I'm pretty damn proud of myself, because it was pretty difficult but I stuck with it until the end. And I had fun in the process! So, how much of a difference does this calendar really make? Does it work? Here are my final thoughts. This workout program really works, but you need to work at it too. If you're going to half ass the workouts, eat badly and skip days, you really won't see a huge difference. I really did my best to stick with it and work hard at it and I really have seen a difference. The thing about Blogilates that I enjoyed is that you won't just see a difference in your body, you'll see a difference in your mindset and motivation as well. Physically, since I began the calendar, I lost 10 pounds and I feel so much stronger than I was before. My muscles, especially my legs are so much more defined than they used to be. Cassey als
