Giveaway: Dermalogica’s new Stress Positive Eye Lift

Boasting a high-impact formula that fights pretty much every early morning eye-area woe in existence, Dermalogica’s new Stress Positive Eye Lift is THE product you need when you want to pull out the big guns in the war on under eye fatigue and general blah-ness. The skin around the eyes is the thinnest you’ll find on your body as well as having fewer oil glands than the rest of the face, so it needs extra special care when and where it can get it.

Stress Positive Eye Lift is an eye treatment and masque in one that comes with its own cooling massage applicator. Its goal is to help restore the skin barrier and visibly reduces the appearance of puffiness and dark circles, instantly brightening and lifting the eye area thanks to key ingredients like Wild Indigo Seed, Arctic Algae and Hyaluronic Acid. You can use it daily to address signs of chronic eye fatigue, or as needed to combat signs of stress. 

Alongside the product’s attributes the company also talks about recent research revealing that stress can have positive effects – making us more alert, focused, and energised. It can be the invisible force that compels us to dare, to love, to save lives, and to do. This beneficial outlook on stress has apparently been referred to as Eustress, derived from the Greek prefix ¬eu- meaning “good” and defined as a healthy cognitive response to stress that gives one a feeling of fulfilment or other positive feelings. Eustress can motivate, focus our energy, and improve performance. 

It’s these findings that have led the skin health experts at Dermalogica to take a brighter outlook on stress and formulate Stress Positive Eye Lift as a fast-acting product that visibly energises the eye area and reduces the signs of stress on the skin. 

As aforementioned, you can use this beauty as a masque or on top of makeup as a quick boost when things are feeling  - and looking – less than rosy. I love patting it on before a night out as it makes any concealer etc slide on like a charm. To use as a masque, apply the luxe formula generously under your eye area using the delicious cooling massage applicator, leave on for 3-5 minutes, then massage into skin or tissue off any excess product. You can also incorporate Dermalogica’s Eye Lift DIY - an exclusive 3-step massage technique – followed by your usual eye cream. 

Stress Positive Eye Lift comes in a 25mL tube with a recommended retail price of $115. It will be available from 5th May 2017 at authorised Dermalogica stockists and dermlaogica.co.nz, but for now I have one to give away to a lucky reader! Email helene@mshelene.com with your name and courier address before the end of Monday, May 1 and you’re in the draw.
