The LA-based skincare brand Arcona is great. Several of their products, the awesome Triad Pads, their Basic Five system, and the potent, respectable Kiwi Clarifying Peel to be more specific, have garnered the oh-so-coveted Product Fiend seal of approval.

Obviously, given their stellar report cards, I was delighted to get my hands on their Peptide Eye Serum, a de-puffing eye Joe that launches later this summer and really does what it says. (How do I know? Because I had a keg party this weekend, that's how I know.) Alas, there is one very major problem with this product. You must apply it to your eye area very, very carefully, because I found out the hard way that if you get it in your eyes: It! Stings! Real! Bad!

Normally I would never recommend an eye product that also causes momentary blindness and mind numbing pain, but like I said, it's better than camomile tea bags when it comes to calming marshmallow eyes. So clearly, I am so very torn. What do you think? Would you be willing to install a chemistry lab style eye wash in order to accommodate such a serum? Tell me straight girls...
