Let's just say I'm at that thirtysomething age where creases have gotten comfortable in the corners of my face.

These tiny life lines certainly have their specific beauty -- they mark the many times I've smiled adoringly at my husband, laughed at my toddler's antics, grinned and giggled with my girlfriends, squinted to read a great book late into the night, winked at funny kid sitting across from me.

As beautiful as the accumulation of those moments is, I am still reaching for the creams to smoothe out, hydrate and fill in whatever I can.

My grandmothers were both devoted to Oil of Olay and I remember fondly the pink bottle on each of their vanities and the fresh smell as they circled it over their faces and dotted it around their eyes and and smoothed it up their arms faithfully every morning and before bed.

While both my grandmothers still have beautiful skin and have aged quite gracefully in their combined 187 years, I feel the need to meet my creases with a moisturizer made more for my own sensitive skin.

That's why I was delighted to find a sweet little tube of Apricot Eye Care cream by Better Botanicals. Although I bought mine in the beauty aisle, it smells like it was plucked from a produce bin (seriously). It is creamy without being greasy and in one use, made my winter-dry eyelids feel moisturized again. I haven't taken a magnifying glass to my crinkles but I do feel like the area around my eyes looks refreshed and I know it feels better.

Like all Better Botanical skin care, facial and bath products, the eye care cream is centered in Ayurveda, and made with vegetarian, food-grade ingredients. You won't find animal products, petroleum derivatives, synthetic colors or fragrances on the ingredients list.

Given all this natural goodness, I anticipated spending a lot for this eye cream. Because I am pretty picky about my products and pretty price-conscious, I was delighted that it rang in right at $15, much less than many drugstore eye creams that are loaded with the dreaded ingredients ending in "yl."

As I try other Better Botanical products -- and you can be sure I will --- I will let you know if they all feel and smell as good as the eye cream. Until then, I have to say, with all these creases drowning in all this apricotlicious cream, I like what I'm seeing.
