ONE RED PILOT

12 beers and an all nighter? No thx!

The above picture is me after 8 hours of sleep, a nice breakfast, and coffee. I know right?! I look like I drank 12 beers and pulled an all nighter. Within the past year i’ve been getting these dark circles and puffy bags under my eyes. I did some research and it turns out it can be related to stress, lack of rest, and even diet but another big contributing factor is genetics. This was my “hmmm” moment.

See my dad always had bags under his eyes but he WAS pulling all nighters drinking, partying, working too much, and not eating well. I figured he just lived a hard life but it seems it could be in the genes! So, do I just live with people thinking I’m strung out? NO…the hunt for a solution began and I think I may have found it.

Immortelle Eye Balm

I started using it on Monday right after I took the above pic. It’s Wednesday and I feel like I already notice a difference.

As I age I’m looking forward to embracing it, but sleepy, puffy looking eyes I refuse to have!

Can you see a difference?

  1. Hey there, Nate! after a long look I wasn’t really able to see a difference since the lighting was so different between the two shots so I did a little simple photo editing and came up with a “double-double” shot of you. yep, there’s is a difference.

    And all this time I thought you were up all night starring into that computer screen. :)

  2. Well, the good news in all of this is you no longer look like the 12 year old in all of those old YA pics circulating on Facebook… Embrace the wrinkles, my friend.

  4. And to think – I was the only one who worried about puffy eyes. I hear a few weeks in Hawaii will get rid of said puffy eyes as well. ;)
