MyChelle - Fabulous Eye Cream

As many of you will know from reading our blog we’re fans of the MyChelle brand and recently reviewed their  Deep Repair Cream. When it came to their other ‘hero’ product, it was a big toss-up as to who was going to review their  Fabulous Eye Cream. However, it was a case of ‘Age over Beauty’ and I insisted that my needs were far great than that of my dear young colleagues…

In my experience eye creams can either be too heavy and greasy or very light leaving an unsightly residue all around the eye area. Fabulous Eye Cream is neither. I’m pretty sceptical when it comes to eye creams and their ‘promise’. I’ve spent way too much money on creams that are (the above) or just don’t deliver. I’ve been using this Fabulous Eye Cream for over a month and a half now and find that this little tube goes a very long way – I’ve barely made a dent in it. The cream feels very luxurious and is immediately absorbed into my skin. It smells slightly floral but not overpowering.

MyChelle’s advanced formula is designed to nourish the delicate eye area. They claim that the Leontopodium Alpinum Meristem (Edelweiss Plant) Stem Cell Culture which inhibit collagen breakdown and are clinically proven to reduce wrinkle depth by 15% after only twenty days of use. It also contains the magical ingredient of Sodium Hyaluronate (L) (Hyaluronic Acid) - Hyaluronic Acid from mucopolysaccarides, which as we all know binds moisture within the skin, giving a smoothing and firming effect.  Other key ingredients are Centella Asiatica (Gotu Kola) Extract an antioxidant, which improves collagen content, renews collagen related to weakened connective tissues, prevents scar tissue formation by slowing down excessive collagen production at wound sites; stimulating circulation and the oxygenation of skin tissues. And Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract which provides soothing and cooling effects to ease irritated skin, has been shown to be moisture-binding, moisture-regulating with softening properties, anti-inflammatory, anti-pruritic, bleaching effects, which  improves flavonoid protections and nourishes the skin.

Well, yes I have noticed a difference, subtle but definitely a difference particularly the softening of lines around my eyes. What I particularly like is that this Fabulous Eye Cream is ‘natural’ with only naturally derived ingredients (definitely my thing…) I’ve also used it on my lip area at night and have seen a noticeable ‘smoothing’ in that area too. I’m surprisingly won over by this product and love the way it seems to be just lasting and lasting. While normally £19 for only 15ml we are lucky enough to offer a 50% discount! For the next month simply(ENDS 6nd June 2013) enter AMAZING50 upon checkout and receive this incredible deal. It truly woks out to be a great value for the money. Recommended!

MyChelle - Deep Repair Cream

We’ve heard so much buzz about this brand and we’re just thrilled to have it land on our desks at The Amazing Blog. MyChelle Skincare is recognised as the No.1 natural facial skincare brand in the US.  It launched in the UK about 6 months ago and has been growing in popularity.  The ingredients used are dermaceutical grade with bioactive ingredients which are free from nasties like phthalates, parabens fragrances and artificial colouring.   The product of my choice from this extensive MyChelle range is the Deep Repair Cream. I love creams that feel rich and hydrating and this certainly showed real promise. I’m told that in clinical studies, Kombuchka™ black tea ferment improved skin smoothness by 6.2% in just 29 days. EGF peptides increase cellular regeneration while algae-derived Venuceane™ protects collagen and prevents moisture loss. While the nourishing shea butter and cutting-edge skin nutrients restore moisture while improving skin’s texture and youthfulness. Well, I just can’t wait!

And as the weather has just turned with a viciously biting north wind, this cream is perfectly timed. Three times a day, I do a slow meditative walk with my elderly four-legged friend which in these current climes practically turns me into a pillar of ice (he has a double fur coat). Over the past few days I have been lavishly applying the Deep Repair Cream to great effect. Not only does it have the most gorgeous and subtle bouquet of roses/orange blossom but it also feels incredibly hydrating giving me the ideal barrier protecting my skin against the elements. I’m pleased to report that I’ve noticed that my skin now has a slightly dewy look as well as feeling incredibly soft. I have normal to dry skin but I think that this would be suitable for anyone who felt their skin was dehydrated or in need pepping up. In fact, it would be brilliant cream to take on a long haul flight or for applying after skiing or sunburn. It’s certainly something I’m deeply grateful to have at hand.  Yes, I do thoroughly recommend it and it’s well worth the RRP of £28.50 - available here or from most good health food shops.
