A WOMAN in her 50s has detailed the beauty products she added to her regimen to brighten up her eyes.
At 51, there are three skincare products she can’t go without, and all of the affordable items are under $15.
Reddit user TelephoneTag2123 is a 51-year-old woman who likes to keep her beauty routine simple. h
She shared in a post the three budget buys that made a difference in making her look less tired and more awake for less than $15 each.
The first product was The Ordinary Caffeine Eye Solution, $12.99 on Amazon.
She applies it every morning as part of her skincare routine.
It is specifically formulated to target dark circles, under-eye puffiness, and signs of aging around the eye area.
It lasts for several hours under everything, including moisturizer.
Next, she suggested trying the Lumify Redness Eye Drops, $5.99 on Amazon.
She recommended the drops because they relieve redness and brighten eyes.
“It makes my eyes look more alert and healthy,” she said.
In addition, having white pupils makes them look more radiant and captivating.
The last buy she uses to make her look more alert is a good quality tubing mascara.
You can use any tubing mascara you like, but there is one that she prefers above all else.
She just started using the L’Oréal Double Extend Tubing Mascara, $9.99, on sale on Amazon.
“It’s a little learning curve with application and removal, but it does NOT smear or flake. Like at all,” she explained.
According to the product description, it has a double-sided bristle brush to apply the primer first, and then the mascara to lengthen lashes.
She added that she thought it was “extremely aging to have raccoon eyes from mascara smears.”
It also lasts all day, is smudge-proof, and can be easily taken off with warm water.
The Reddit user also shared additional free beauty tips that also contribute to a more awake and less tired appearance.
She advised minimizing your coffee or caffeine intake, getting more sleep, and drinking lots of water.
When combined with the three products, they all work together to “improve eyes.”
