Meilily: Setoso Eye Balm

Meilily Featured Product!

I know it’s not quite summer here yet, but seeing as all the catalogs have been featuring swimsuits lately, I thought I’d mention a product I’ve tried that would be perfect for warm weather.

I had the opportunity to try out a new skincare line called Setoso Skincare, and found that their Eye Balm product was surprisingly cooling and perfect for warm summer (or spring) days.

Almost like a large lip balm stick, Setoso Eye Balm comes in an attractive and easy-to-use sage green twist-up tube, and feels instantly cooling and non-greasy when applied to the skin. Though it is called “Eye Balm” I am tempted to use this on my lips, on my cheeks, at my temples, or even at pulse points for a cooling touch of light moisture.

More Details on Setoso Eye Balm & Ingredients

Setoso Eye Balm contains ingredients to keep the delicate skin around the eye area hydrated, including hyaluronic acid, trehalose, urea, and sodium PCA. The Eye Balm stick also includes propylene glycol, which according to the Setoso Skincare site is “the best moisture carrying agent possible” besides water. Better yet, the Eye Balm is paraben-free and fragrance-free.

You don’t even have to keep Setoso Eye Balm in the fridge to feel its cooling effects instantly, so this is one easy product! Just a dab or two will do.

Setoso Eye Balm is available for US$45 for .30 oz on the Setoso.com website.
