How many times have you had this exchange — a good friend looks you in the eyes and before you’ve even said a word, she asks, “What’s wrong?” You reply, ”How’d you know?” Without words, gestures or any empirical information other than your gaze your friend knows because “the truth is in the eyes” and that is the apt name of Ole Henriksen’s breakthrough new treatment gel designed for the eye tissue where most creams and potions refuse to tread.

Honestly if the eyes are the seat of emotional communication then the skin framing them is pretty damn important, yet I estimate that 99.99% of all of my product contains the phrase “avoid direct contact with the eye area.”  The problem — this is the part of the face that is the first responder for showcasing stress, aging, um slight mental imbalances, fatigue, environmental irritation and any number of other issues.   So, what’s a girl to do?  We can’t exfoliate and pamper this area that needs it most.   Of course, Mr. Henriksen, who takes a very philosophical approach to his skin care, understands that how you frame the art is as important as the art. TRUTH is revolutionary in that Mr. Henriksen has found a formulation of Glycolic Acid (AHA) and Lactic Acid that is gentle enough to use on the delicate tissue under the eye.   Now you can gently exfoliate this skin and along with the Vitamin C clear the way for a brighter under eye appearance.   TRUTH also contains micro algae that firms the skin and boosts collagen production and a rice bran protein that strengthens the tissue and improves circulation, which will help eliminate the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. There’s also a strong moisturizing component thanks to an ingredient called saccharide.

My under eyes have been looking very grim due to some health issues and a fair amount of tears but after 3 weeks of using TRUTH I’m very happy to report that my under eye skin is noticeably brighter.   When a product actually works, I fantasize about spreading it over my entire body, which with treatments is an expensive fantasy as my body is large and treatments come in small containers. I compromised and gave myself a little piece of my fantasy and put TRUTH on my nose as well as under my eyes. I figured they were connected. And yes, my nose is looking very fine thank you. Old red pimple mark from last outbreak – gone. Enjoy.

Xx, Alison
