Despierta! New Mamás Will Appreciate These Eye-Brightening Products
If you recently became a new mom, leading up to the grand event, you were likely flooded with well-wishes, words of encouragement, and constant reminders you will never sleep again. They weren't wrong. OK, maybe not never again but at least for the first few months or so. Luckily, there's an abundance of brightening eye products that are here to help a girl out. These guys are meant to be quick and easy to apply because we know time is a luxury these days. From creams and serums to concealers, here are some of the eye brighteners to keep on hand.
Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel
The Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel ($6) won't help you wake up, but it will make you look awake. This soothing eye gel helps to energize tired, puffy eyes with Yerba Mate, peptides, caffeine, and three types of hyaluronic acid. It is lightweight and fast-absorbing, and it wears seamless under makeup.
Bobbi Brown Undereye Corrector
The Bobbi Brown Undereye Corrector ($32) is highly rated for its power to cover and correct dark circles with a real-skin effect. It instantly neutralizes discoloration and brightens the delicate eye area with Vitamin E and Kaolin Clay. It also layers perfectly under concealer, so you've got double protection.
Tula Glow & Get It Cooling & Brightening Eye Balm
Tell pesky dark circles to cool it with the Tula Glow & Get It Cooling & Brightening Eye Balm ($28). This cooling stick is formulated to firm and tighten the skin around the eyes while reducing the look of fine lines and wrinkles. It gives an immediate refreshing and cooling sensation and a dewy glow thanks to hyaluronic acid, probiotic extracts, and caffeine. It's basically a cafecito for your eyes!
BeautyBio The Eyelighter Concentrate
The BeautyBio The Eyelighter Concentrate ($58) isn't rated five stars for no reason. This product with a metal applicator tip (meant for depuffing) contains a plant-based retinol alternative that smooths the eye area while an acid-free Vitamin C brightens and hyaluronic acid moisturizes. It helps to smooth texture and give your undereyes a creaseless surface for when you're ready to apply concealer.
Good Molecules Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches
No sleep, no problem! Just kidding, you need some snooze, but the Good Molecules Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches ($18) are here to help. They're infused with caffeine and work to brighten, hydrate, and reduce puffiness in just 10 minutes. That means you can say adios to tired-looking eyes while you fix yourself some breakfast or enjoy your baby's babbles and giggles.
Benefit Boi-ing Bright on Concealer
The last thing you need is to hear you look tired, but the Benefit Boi-ing Bright on Concealer ($24) says abre los ojos by simply dotting across your undereyes. This little wand of magic is a three-in-one that brightens, color corrects, and seals hydration with a serum-like formula. It contains red algae extract and a vitamin C derivative – a power duo that instantly brightens.
Clarins Double Eye Serum
For a more intensive approach, the Clarins Double Eye Serum ($79) is a powerhouse treatment that visibly smooths, firms, and hydrates the delicate eye area. It's a plant-based antipollution complex that contains 13 plant extracts that depuff and illuminate the undereyes. A week of using this mighty formula will have you looking extra awake.
It Cosmetics Confidence In an Eye Cream
Because the eye area is the first to be affected when sleep is compromised, the It Cosmetics Confidence In an Eye Cream ($40) is clinically tested to hydrate the skin around the eyes, including the eyelids. With key ingredients such as super ceramide complex, avocado, and squalane, this brightening cream also doubles as a color corrector that minimizes the look of dark circles and diminishes the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. If this cream sounds like a dream, that's because it is!
