If you’re like us, you spend a good deal of your time staring at a computer screen. And while deadlines are important and dot-com shopping is perfect for moms-on-the-go, this is one of many areas of our lives that is just not so easy on the eyes. But dry, irritated eyes don’t have to bring you down when you approach the day prepared.
As a beauty blogger, I’ve seen and heard it all. And no matter what you tell me about organic makeup, gentle applications, and only lining the top of your lids, our beauty routines can be less than gentle on the peepers. The magical ingredient missing from your morning routing is the new Rohto® Cool Max. And now you can enter to win a box of these awesome eye drops plus a $25 gift card to put toward your other beauty must-haves.
I’ve tried just about all the ‘”best eye drops for allergies” out there, but I’ve found Rohto to be the best for my eyes! These fabulous drops are easy to apply thanks to their unique and groundbreaking one-drop dispenser (the only packaging of its kind on the market). They create a soothing, nourishing, and cooling feeling immediately on contact, bringing you that instant relief we all crave. No matter how little sleep you’re going on or what havoc your pesky allergies are wreaking, a quick squeeze of your Rohto® Cool Max bottle into each eye and you’ll be good to go. Offering up the maximum redness relief, coolness, and protection you can get in an eye drop without a prescription, these are my top pick for moms.
You’ll be ready to face the day when your eyes look and feel bright and alert.
There’s a reason that Rohto Cooling Eye Drops are the number-one brand globally, with allergy, exhaustion, and dryness sufferers worldwide seeking their unique and powerful benefits. I’ve been using them for years, and couldn’t be more excited about the new line. Launching this month, Rohto® Cool Max is specifically designed for those whose eyes get red and agitated. In one drop, the whiteness returns while the cooling and soothing benefits set in.
Get your morning beauty routine off to an even lovelier start — and get ready to hear “You look rested!” or “Did you change your makeup?” to which you’ll just have to nod, smile, and retort, “No, I’ve just cooled off a bit.” Open up with our top five tips for bright eyes:
1. Catch more z’s. Easier said than done, I know. But there are some no-fail ways to help improve the quantity and quality of your sleep. Avoid that afternoon caffeine, swapping in a decaf tea instead. Try lying in bed or on the floor with your legs up against the headboard or wall in the yoga pose aptly called, “legs up the wall” for 15 minutes before bed. Close your eyes and focus on something relaxing while you do this. And lastly, resist the urge to read or watch TV in bed and instead close your eyes once your head hits the pillow. You’ll find you wake up to eyes that look less puffy and more alert thanks to the extra rest.

2. Slather on that eye cream. In addition to reducing swelling and thus making the eyes appear wider, it will help keep fine lines and wrinkles at bay. Who doesn’t want that? Opt for a lighter formula in summer months and make sure to dab gently rather than rubbing it in.
3. Conceal what doesn’t work for you. Those puffy undereye bags and discoloration can add years and exhaustion to your whole face. Apply concealer in dots and blend with your finger tip or a makeup applicator. Use a creamy formula that’s one shade lighter than your natural skin tone for ideal benefits. Concealer does so much — and her even application of black mascara doesn’t hurt, either.

4. Consider an eye brightener. Many brands from the drugstore to those found at high-end cosmetics counters carry slick eye brightening pencils that can be used to illuminate the eye area and make you look rested. Our team lives for these handy sticks!
5. And what’s prettier than the whites (not reds!) of your eyes? Nothing, as far as we’re concerned. Pop in your Rohto® Cool Max, and take the world by storm.
