There is nothing better than a product that can take care of dark under eye circles as well as the shadows that form just above the lips as we age. Philosophy Dark Shadows treats both areas with an eye toward treating thinning skin. If you are ready for immediate results, this product can deliver.

The major difference between Philosophy Dark Shadows and other creams is that Philosophy Dark Shadows is formulated as an enhancement for your usual face or eye cream. Apply it once or twice daily, over or under your usual cream for instant light diffusion. Sunflower seed oil and hibiscus flower extract soothe and nourish to support healing at the microscopic level as plant silicones hold moisture in and soften lines formed by years of laughing, smiling, and squinting.

I noticed an ingredient that I hadn’t seen too often when reading labels. Philosophy has included whey protein in the blend. Whey is found in “leave in” hair conditioners to add body and strength. Here, Philosophy Dark Shadows seems to be included for the same strengthening factor, but might also attract and hold moisture in place which creates a dewy, more youthful appearance. There is a very slight chance that a little lactic acid could be present with the whey protein, which would encourage cell regeneration and skin tightening. I am sure that each person will have to experiment to see what their results might be, but I am impressed.

Philosophy is a well known brand with an excellent reputation. The creation of a product to treat two areas of the face illustrates how aware they are of the problem areas most women struggle with. Don’t miss a chance to try Philosophy Dark Shadows for your dark under eye circles or as a treatment for the dark area at the upper lip. If you have the opportunity, stop by the Sephora store or go to your local upscale cosmetics counter and try a sample package. Let us know what you think!
