“Eye Enhancer”

MK Triple-Action Eye Enhancer is one of the many skin care lines of anti-aging products. According to a few reviewers the product is discontinued, which has disappointed the purchasers. Apparently, the product is replaced by Eye Enhancerother Mary Kay skin care solutions.

MK-Triple-Action Eye Enhancer is purchasable in .64 oz tubes. The bottle enables you to squeeze a small dab onto your fingers and apply the solution around the eye area. The thick, white creamy anti-aging product has no apparent aromas, or flavoring, thus worrying about stinging is unimportant while utilizing the product.

Amazingly, ingredients are available on this product, which is uncommon for MK products. The make-up bottles may have the ingredients, but the company opposed of labeling, rarely provides information pertaining to the ingredients in their line of beauty products. The ingredients include METHYLPARABEN, PROPYL PARABEN, CYCLOTETRA SILOXANE, and so on. This discourages me, since MK products supposedly do not house any common ingredients other products manufacturer. PARABEN is disturbing, since the chemical was discovered to cause cancer. With this in mind, personally I would recommend a product that does not include ingredients, such as PARABEN.

One of the downside, is MK products often give off a radiant appeal when the make-ups and skin care products are applied.
