Skincare - Mummy Treats.....Green Angel Eye Gel

As most of you know by know - I am a mother to an almost 3 year old and 6 week old.  The last couple of weeks have passed in a daze of sheer exhaustion between the return to night feeds and a toddler who seems to subscribe to the adage the "sleep is for the weak".  He is like a Duracell bunny, he honestly could go with no sleep for days.

Poor mammy on the other hand well....she is exhausted.  Add to the mix a husband with the unique capability of sleeping through well....sleeping through practically anything!

In an attempt to pull myself to get, I have purchased a number of skin care products in the vain attempt to make me look somewhat human again and shed a number of years to hopefully make me like like a 30 something again!

First up is the Green Angel Eye Gel.  Up to this point my eyes looked like a woman twice my age.  The weekly shopping could find a home under them coupled with the dark circles, lets just say I was no oil painting.

3 weeks ago, I started with this product.  I actually store it in the fridge which feels amazing and cooling first thing in the morning.  I didn't notice much difference for the first 2 weeks and then this week I can really see the difference.  The dark circles have really diminished and the fine lines are much less noticeable.

I am honestly thrilled with this product. I love the consistency and the texture of the gel.  I have, over the years tried many lotions and potions in the vain attempt to look like I stepped off the cover of Vogue but this one is a keeper.  The jar is a great size and like most eye products a little does go a long way.

Another mega plus for me is that its Irish.I am a firm believer in supporting Irish where I can at all.  This ticks all the boxes for me and I am hoping in another few weeks to see more improvement around my eye area. See pic below.  I purchased mine in a pharmacy in Dublin City Centre, however it can be purchased on-line via http://www.greenangel.com/

Next product up for review is the Botanics Radiance Balm.....keep following for  more updates on products for mothers and for babies, in addition to mummy life blog posts.

For now I am off to try and scrape about 30 fireman Sam stickers off the wooden floor in the sitting room!!.
