How To Keep Your Eyes Wide Open - Stylehive

You know that girl you were insanely jealous of when you were like five because she was so much cuter than you? She had perfect little girl hair, the sweetest smile and those big doe eyes. Now that we€™re all grown up and have come into our own beauty (thank goodness!) do we wonder what happened to that other, prettier girl? I still know my pretty girl, she is one of my BFs, and guess what? She is still super-cute! But while getting all dolled up for a fancy event, she gave it up how she still has those big doe eyes from when we were five. Read on, bees, to find out the secret!

We were attending a black-tie fashion event, and for the fun of it I brought over my favorite makeup person, Agata Helena (check her out at agatahelena.com), to help us get gorgeous. Agata commented on how amazing my BF€™s eyes were and how perfect they were for fab makeup. So a pang of five-year old envy came back and while my BF and I had a minute alone, I had to ask what her secret was.

She turned and looked at me with a little smirk and a few seconds of silence and said, €œRebecca€¦ I have been using eye cream since I was fifteen.€� (Insert sound of jaw hitting the floor here.) Fifteen!

So bees, here is the tip: Use eye cream at any age, because really, it is an amazing thing.

Some of my faves: Dr. Hauschka€™s Daily Revitalizing Eye Cream and RoC Retinol Correxion Eye Cream.

So what do you think, bees? Will you start an eye cream regimen anytime soon, or is beauty only in the eye of the beholder?
