Three Reasons Trilogy Eye Cream Will Become Your Makeup Bag’s MVP

I have a hard time taking makeup products for face value (pun intended) and always try to reinvent them as something else: I blend blushes into serums for a natural glow, dot my cuticles with my heavy duty winter moisturizer, and smear bronzer into my body lotion.

Eye cream is no exception. Yes, I religiously pat three perfect circles on the delicate undereye area morning, noon, and night in hopes for prevention and to fake eternal perkiness. But I don’t stop there.  This week, score a FREE regular sized Trilogy Eye Contour Cream ($44) with any Trilogy purchase (see my suggestion below). Make this product your beauty BFF with these alternate uses:

* Create a super sexy glossy eye lid. Looking like someone could shovel your eye make-up off with a snow plow because it’s so matte and caked on is not attractive. Avoid the frosted sugar cookie syndrome by mixing a teeny bit of eye cream with your favorite shadow. You can even coat a finger and blend over your lid post-application. Voila! Instant, gorgeous, natural eye makeup.

* Create your own anti-aging concealer. Do NOT become that woman with a thick half moon of heavy nude colored makeup smudged under her eyes. Vampire-intense dark circles are more seductive than this makeup mishap. Concealer is notoriously thick — combine a bit with this cream to get bright, glowing, wrinkle free undereyes.

Now that you can’t wait to play Picasso with your Eye Cream, I’m suggesting a purchase. Scoop up Trilogy’s Certifed Organic Rosehip Oil ($44), another aesthetic all-star. This is a beauty no-brainer and a total indulgence. At night, massage a few drops into your skin and go about your nightly businesss.  You know that relaxed, excited feeling you get when you go to sleep expecting a visit from some holiday heavyweight ( Santa, the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, whatever)?  This delivers that and more for your face. Look in the mirror and prepared to be amazed. It does it all (wrinkles, correct sun damage, provides a moisture jolt) – and is all natural to boot. Trust.
