Instant Effect Eye Mask by Katherine Daniels

As they say: 'A smile can hide the truth, the mouth can whisper lies, but the eyes always reveal what’s hidden below the surface...' At The Amazing Blog, we realise that our eyes reveal a lot, lack of sleep, an unhealthy lifestyle or even a stressful life. However, let's also not forget about the skin that surrounds the eye, which is extremely delicate and in need of protection. This is where we discovered the new  Instant Effect Eye Mask, from one of our favourite brands Katherine Daniels.

The Instant Effect Eye Mask is a beauty product formulated to offer hydration, firming and smoothing results. Each mask is enriched with key active ingredients that include sea kelp, mineral complex and hyaluronic acid. The combination of these ingredients makes a highly effective eye mask that reduces the appearance of wrinkles and lines while hydrating skin. Hyaluronic acid, a natural element found in the body stimulates the production of collagen and works to provide a suppler and softer skin.

As the name suggests, this mask offers instant results. They deliver visible effects after just one use, and sustained results if used twice a week. We certainly noticed an improvement after the  20 minute application, fine lines and crows feet were less visible and our eyes looked fresher and more rested. When used regularly these salon strength eye masks offers long-term benefits by firming skin and revitalising the eye area. This Instant Effect Eye Mask is perfect for slipping into your handbag to use on the go or before a big event as they helps to give the eyes a more awake and radiant look. These are now making a regular appearance in our weekly pamper routine, they are an investment buy, but we think that they are worth every penny! There are four sets of eye masks in the box and you can purchase your pack of eye masks here for £58.

Korres- Anti-Wrinkle and Firming Day/Night Cream

The Amazing Blog is a big fan of the brand Korres, and we have reviewed them multiple times in the past. We love them for two reasons; firstly they are inspired by homeopathy and its “mild yet effective approach to skin needs.” Secondly, we are big supporters of the brand because of their ability to produce high-quality products time and time again. Today we are writing about two of our new favourites from the brand, their Anti-Wrinkle and Firming Day Cream and their Anti-Wrinkle and Firming Night Cream. 

Both the day and night creams are advanced, non-greasy formulas that help reduce the appearance of wrinkles. They restore skin to a more youthful state by helping it become firmer and regain its elasticity. Both products are driven by the revolutionary molecule Active HALupeol and Castanea Arcadia (Arcadian Chestnut tree.) These ingredients work to protect the skin’s essential structural elements such as collagen and glycoproteins. Overall, the creams give weaker and older skin suppleness and youthfulness. Our skin was left positively glowing and wonderfully smooth to the touch. 

Not only are the products amazingly effective on skin, but they contain over 90% natural ingredients, making them the perfect products for eco-conscious people trying to avoid nasty parabens. The Day Cream is 93.3% natural and the Night Cream is 96.1% natural. They could not be easier to use, simply massage into skin once in the morning and once in the evening and watch as the effects quickly begin to take effect. 

You can purchase the Day Cream here for around £39.40 and the Night Cream here for roughly £39.40. Although prices are listed in Euros PayPal is available which will allow you to pay in Pounds. 

CoolHerbals - CoolSlim Body Wrap

Although we always have the best intention of toning up our bikini bodies, summer often comes and goes without a jot of difference to our physiques. Obviously, here at The Amazing Blog, we feel that it’s important to be comfortable in your own skin, whatever your size, but we do often wish we looked a little less wobbly in a swimming costume! So when CoolHerbals sent the CoolSlim Body Wrap to the office, we were all keen to see if it had the toning effect we so long for.

Promising a firm, slimmer look, the Body Wrap kit contains Wrap Paste, Skin Firming Lotion, as well as Arm, Thigh and Stomach Belts. Packed with Gophichand Clay, which helps to draw out toxins, as well as mineral enriched Marine Extracts, ideal for stimulating circulation, the kit was surprisingly easy to use. Applying the paste to our wobbly areas, we then wrapped ourselves in the fabric belts, and waited for a mere 30 minutes. After feeling the heating effect, and washing off the excess paste, we applied the Skin Firming Lotion, and were pleasantly surprised by how much firmer our skin looked. Although we’re not too sure this would work as a long-term solution, the kit was perfect for those one off days where you wanted to look your best.

Tone up and feel great with the CoolHerbals Body Wrap Kit. You can buy it here for £44.95.
