Work It Wednesday: Age Smoothing Eye Serum from SOBO Skin Care

**Disclaimer: I have received products to try from SOBO Skin Care via BrandBacker & am simply sharing my personal opinion which may vary from yours. I was not compensated for this review.


I have a confession to make. For years, I applied hemorrhoid cream under my eyes. First, let me start by saying that I saw this on Models, Inc., another Aaron Spelling creation back in his 90210 & Melrose Place days. I could never tell if it helped my puffy eyes, but boy could you tell when I didn't put it on! Flash forward to the current decade & my eyes are still puffy daily. But I've moved on from the hemorrhoid cream & finally found something that has a notable difference aside form being able to tell when I didn't put it on. 


 This Age Smoothing Eye Serum is downright amazing! Even with it being a 5ml sample bottle (I'm seriously considering investing in the full size 15ml bottle for $42). 

The first thing I noticed was that the serum itself felt greasy. Like really greasy. Which had me running to the mirror to check out just how bad it was. I was shocked! There was no greasy residue at all! Instead, I had a soft, almost matte-like finish underneath my eyes. I pretty much fell in love with this stuff right there, before even discovering if the product actually worked or not. 



The main thing I noticed, was how well my concealer stayed put under my eyes. I'm used to applying it numerous times a day (heaven forbid if I watch a sappy movie or it's allergy season), but never gave another application a second thought when I applied the serum. Usually, I only apply something like this once a day, but seeing as how I was pleasantly surprised by the results I was seeing, I decided to actually follow the directions & apply it every morning & night. Of course I did still have some bags under my eyes (I contribute that to being a busy mom of three small kids), but nowhere near what they usually look like.

So by now, I know you're wondering what makes the Age Smoothing Eye Serum work. The most notable reason, is that this is a silicone-based moisturizer, which protects the skin around the eyes from puffiness, dryness & other harmful elements. Which basically means, no more tired looking eyes (hooray!). This serum also contains a collection of essential lipids that accelerates healing & promotes the production of healthy skin cells (making it perfect for after microdermabrasion & laser therapy). And let's not overlook that it is a hypoallergenic formula, so anyone can use it. 



SOBO Skin Care focuses on delivering products that are as natural as possible, without compromising the efficacy that women expect. Their products contain no parabens, sulfates, phthalates, GMO's, synthetic dyes or fragrances, or triclosan. They're also not tested on animals.

  27. This is what I have been looking for awhile. An eye cream that works. If I could take a picture of my eye, it'll look black. LOL! My sister sad I sometimes look like I just had a fist fight with someone with my 'blackeyes'. Wrinkle starting to show up to so I want to stop them! This might work. :D

  45. I don't use any as I'm still a bit too young for it. I just use a concealer for the darkness, especially if I'm going to be speaking at events, especially if they have a lighting that shines on the presenter. It helps. I'm sure in the future, I'll be looking into products like this.

  46. I'll have to get my hands on this!
