To believe or not to believe?

I am not at all sure that these firming and anti-wrinkling and plumping and whatever eye creams work - still I always diligently use one. Am I a victim of the cosmetics industry? (Maybe, but it's so worrying to think what the state of affairs would be if I didn't use one!) I started using one when I was about 28 and I don't think I look much younger than my current age of 31 - but hey, I don't look much older either! So best stick with the cream! 

I've long used Weleda's organic Wild Rose Eye Cream but my husband bought me this (by mistake I may say!):
It contains organic pomegranate and golden millet and claims to reduce the wrinkles and regenerate ageing skin.  It was also twice the price of my usual one so I expect it's twice as effective too - so I should look like a 16-year old any time now!

Moisturise me!

 
This is what I need, inside out! Fat! Good oils! This long, long Finnish winter has made my skin ever so dry and according to my organic cosmetologist this Rose and Aloe moisturiser should do the trick. I've had some Provida cosmetics before and have quite liked them. I am happy to see they've done something to their tubes though because they used to be oddly crumbly - the paint came off too easily when you squeezed! But I'm not sure what to think of the fact it says this product is for aging skin though...

The cute little Weleda jar was something my husband brought me from abroad - it contains ever so fancy little rose oil capsules I've tried to use sparingly! They work really well as a protection against very cold temperatures so I tend to share one with my daughter before going sledging on a cold day.

The avocados are not only delicious and pretty but also very nutritious!
