#review | Adeline Organic Eye Serum

I've been looking for for a decent eye cream to help with the sunken in look of the area under my eyes for a real long while now. I've found with all of the eye products I've tried for probably the last couple of years that they just never love up to the claims. Most did nothing at all. A lot of them didn't fully absorb into my skin and just clogged the pores around my eye area as a result. I came across this serum and thought I might have better luck with it since it's not a cream, but rather a gel. I am transitioning to a greener beauty routine also, so I liked that it was a natural and organic product. You can see in the pic below that the list of ingredients in this serum is pretty short, and most of them are organic.

The bottle has a pump applicator, and the serum comes out as a clear gel. I found the pump to dispense too much product, so I kind of just give it a half squeeze each time I use it.

I feel like the gel spreads and absorbs really well, and my makeup sits nicely on top of it on days that I wear concealer and what not. There is no scent that I can detect, and it's a really gentle formula. No stinging, burning, or any other eye irritations. While I haven't seen a massive difference in my under eye area, you can see in the pics below that my under eye area is a little plumper and brighter after a few weeks of use.

The top photo is before use, the bottom is after 3 weeks:

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this eye serum. Given how little I need to use this bottle is going to last a very long time, which makes it a little budget friendly as well.

Wow of the Week! | OZ Naturals Anti-Aging Solar Shield

Oz Naturals Anti-Aging Solar shield is an all natural sunscreen. It uses zinc oxide and titanium dioxide to provide SPF 30 sun protection, as well as a bunch of other skin loving ingredients to nourish and protect the skin.

I found this sunscreen to be very gentle. My sensitive skin didn't have any sort of reaction to it. There is a super mild citrus-herbal scent to it, not strong at all. Unlike a lot of other sunscreens it didn't feel heavy or greasy on my already oily face. It absorbed relatively quickly, and left my skin with an almost matte feel to it. This, like most natural sunscreens, does leave a slightly white tint to the skin. For me personally this is kind of a bonus since I have so much sun damage and freckles that my face is considerably darker than my neck and chest. The tint actually helps to even things out for me. You can see in the pics below what I'm talking about.

While I have been using this on my whole body, one unexpected surprise that I found while using it on my face is that it works better as a primer under my makeup than any other primer I've tried. I have really big pores around my nose, and most primers actually skip over the pores and create pockets around them so that when I put my foundation on my pores are actually more visible than if I had used nothing at all. When I use this sunscreen under my makeup it actually smooths over the pores and makes the less visible. Finally! I found something that works!!

One more nice thing about this product is that it is vegan and cruelty-free for all of the animal friendly shoppers out there.

Overall, I really like this natural sunscreen and will definitely be picking another bottle up when this runs out.
