Anatomicals No Old Bags Allowed: They only want you for your BODY!!!
Goddess Granny here: I LOVE it when anyone dares to imply that it's my "body" they are interested in and not my mind...
I know, I know, all my sistas' in feminism will be pounding the table but hey, you simply have to realize that sometimes the "truth" is REALLY not what we want to hear after all so go ahead and smother me with cheesy compliments, ply me with umbrella drinks and whisper something that will make me squrim. It's the "fantasy" that sells people! 
If you can also toss in a hefty dose of humor backed up with a solid set of skills and a proven track record of quality,I want YOU TOO! 
How could you NOT fall in "lust" in a company whose "philosophy" is non-existant, (don't you hate those stuffy self-serving "mission statements?) who makes it crystal clear that they are funny and original,and whose website is one of THE coolest,most well-designed and entertaining lil' bites of delight on the web?Oh and....they make no bones about the fact that they also "only want you for your body!"
Anatomicals had me at first click...I promise you will love this site so be prepared to visit a while!:
"...keep this tightening gel handy,after all,there's only one place for bags in this world: under the arms of a yummy Beverly Hills porter!"
Now don't you know Miz Meg herself would absoultely agree with this statement but "No Old Bags Allowed" is the name of Anatomicals FABULOUS eye gel so take this little blue tube very seriously even if it laughs at itself? With orange flower water,my beloved arinca, and a dose of good ol' witch hazel, this cool and totally non-irritating clear-gel can make anyone's "old bags" morph into converted Vuitton's in minutes!
Totally delightful, non-sticky, and effortless to apply, this gel can be used under makeup or alone with incredible results: the skin is calmed,the eye-ares is visibly smoothed,and there's not a bit of tacky-tightness only a refreshed and more youthful transformation in minutes! I don't apply with a lot of care,just sort of smear it on and also "hit up" the upper-lip area as well (you can do this with any eye-treatment,the skin texture's similar in these places!) if I over squeeze the tube.
I love that it's non-irritating and gentle yet manages to do a great job without a lot of hype. Eye-creams are sometimes ridiculously priced and oversold IMO.
"Wake up late.Scream.Look in the mirror.Scream.Apply this soothing gel and realize that those good-looks were just hiding after all!" Sometimes we ALL need a bit of smoothing over in the am,right? Damn...who am I kidding,I'll take some smoother-stuff anytime I can get it!
I use this get often and enjoy it every single time:it's my current "go to" for a quick fix, it's totally refreshing,gentle as can be, and really takes care of that "Gee where ARE my sunglasses?" eye-strain you get during the days of Summer.
I love this product and am dying to try more from Anatomicals: I haven't been able to source a seller in the US but they assured me they ship quickly to the US so I'm going to place an order because honestly,I think it's worth a bit of a wait to be able to enjoy more from this cutting-edge company!
If you find someplace that sells Anatomicals on this side of the pond, please share, won't you? products also seem to be very reasonably priced, always a huge plus!
You can also visit this delightful company on Facebook: their totally irreverant humor is contagious and I predict good things to come for them!
I think we all need to just stop taking it all so seriously because nothing is more attractive than a smile! :) Wishing y'all time to enjoy the special men in your life today and everyday as well!

Love this eye cream. I seem to notice an improvement since I started to use this about two weeks ago.I think this is a must buy.

I LOVE THIS STUFF! this brings ultimate cooling sensation to my tired underlids. I really can feel the instant refreshing relief this gel brings to my eyes. I used to be a big fan of cellex-c eye soothing roller gel ball. First of all, the celex is pretty pricey and this stuff is so cost-effective. Also I LOVE how such a very small amount it takes to see a difference. I am ridiculous with this stuff. I keep it on my nightstand. I wake up in the morning and use a tiny dab as soon as I wake up. Then I putter to my dog, walk to the leash-take her out-we walk for 20 minutes then I come back and start the coffee maker. I grab my towel and head to the shower. I take my shower and RE-APPLY my "No Bags Allowed". I see a distinct difference in my swollen eyes from 8am to 8:35. I see an even more distinct difference through-out the days. I don't know what's in this stuff but it really de-puffifies (Is that a word?) and makes me real refreshed even after a less then good night sleep. I love to stay up too late, eat improperly, drinlk and smoke to much and I have to say-I will always have a few tubes of this in my arsenal. I LOVE IT! No bags unless Chanel allowed on this body!
"Skip intro if you're old....... If you don't believe in living life to the fullest, going out,...... then please click on the grave stone to the right and go see our personality undertaker....." This is part of Anatomicals introduction. How can you not love on a company like that? On top of a great product, you get creativity, eye candy, and a smart ass, cheeky approach to the beauty industry. This eye gel is amazing. It's a gel that absorbs like a cream, without any unwanted residue. I don't have bags, but I do have loads of redness and irritation, damn allergies. This is a very soothing product. Even my contact lens covered eyeballs felt less irritated. Can an eye gel even do that? It's refreshing and effective, all while layering nicely under makeup. Anatomicals entire approach has left me wanting, or should I say lusting for more of their unique products. I can even imagine Stylepapa using something from their line. Or, should I say I can even imagine Stylepapa lusting? Something like that......
I agree that the products sound interesting and I would love to try them...however, I just had a really awful experience with something that I ordered from England. Not to say everyone or every company would be like that. I just don't like to touch a hot stove twice.Would like to know when it's available in U.S. I saw on their website that there are reps in some other countries but not yet here.
Oh wow! Thank you so much for introducing me to this line. I want absolutely everything on their site! It all looks fabulous, this especially. :)
I would love to try this. However, it's a British company and the cost isn't three dollars american, it is three dollars STERLING. Whatever that means. It appears they are using the euro as the currency fo shipping so once totaled the cost of this item will excede 20.00. That's still pretty much drug store price for an eye cream, but I will wait until there is an american retailer. Urban Outfitters had it, but no more.
I have yet to try this product, but I did find this web site that seemed to have the cheapest shipping costs. On the Anatomicals site they were going to charge me $16 in shipping, this site only charges $5. However, they don't carry all of Anatomicals products.www.beautybay.com/bag/
Thanks to Meg I received this awesome gel as well. I really love it. Frankly this surprised me. I am not a big eye cream person. But as a graduate student who is getting "old" I can't seem to stay awake working late on papers anymore without looking like a pile of "dung" the next morning. I have particularly been noticing the effects of burning the midnight oil around my sensitive eye area. Let's just say if eyes are truly the windows to your soul then anyone who looked at mine would assume that my tired "bags" were packed and headed straight for hell. So when I looked through my package from Meg again I knew that I had to give this gel a try. Wow! It is instantly fabulous. I have a very sensitive eye area. It was not irritating at all! It provided instant cooling relief that did not quickly dissipate. I swear I noticed a difference the first day that I used it in the size of the bags under my eyes. They were greatly diminished and seemed less dark. And this has really improved the more I use it. This gel really seems to give me a more refreshed, awake, and alive appearance. I will certainly continue using this heavenly gel and I suggest that you do as well!BTW-I have been noticing other Anatomicals products in TJ MAXX. This may be your chance ladies to sample this awesome company's products. The other product that I tried from them was called Cheese Release Me. It is a foot cream. It is equally amazing. It is so divinely cooling. This company seems to corner the market on cooling relief. This revived my tired and aching feet. It dramatically softened them. It made them smell minty fresh. And best of all it relaxed me after a long day on my feet. I also recommend this fabulous cream to anyone who wants to feel light on their feet.This "cheeky" British company is worth the buy based on their clever names and marketing alone.But luckily they are so much more than that. Their products deliver. And I can't wait to try the rest!!
I wish I could say I've been loving this product. I wish I could, because I made the mistake of bringing it into my office and it is Gone, Baby, Gone! Everyone wants it, loves it, can't live without it. And my peepers are waiting for my order to arrive from GB, which is apparently the un-stuffiest place on Earth. Love the site, love the products. And, by the way, please notice what I am always pointing out to all my Caffeine-free friends: once you cross The Pond you will notice that Brits can't get enough of the stuff. They buy Caffeine Candy, they slather it on their skins and now, they have patches! We patch to stop smoking, they patch to stay up all night and party. I'm packing those bags that no longer are welcome under my eyes and moving to Britain, where apparently my decrepit old body is suddenly on Anatomicals' Hit Parade! Rule Brittania!
I just went to BeautyBay to buy some, and they are currently sold out...
I dont usually have bags under my eyes, just the dark shadows, but I can truly appreciate the creativeness and the marketing genius of this company.
So hear this: my order at the anatomicals Web site failed, twice, and so the customer service guy is sending it to me anyway, just asking me to "tell my friends." I told him that thanks to Meg, he has thousands of new friends... These guys are amazing.
I LOVE this company!!! I just posted a link to "Megs" and this review on their Facebook page along with begging that they "Come to the USA!!!" Hoping we'll help to let them know they are wanted!!! (lusted after???)LOL!
I've never heard of this company but they sound pretty great. I love any company that doesn't take itself too seriously.The product sounds awesome, and since I work crazy hours I need all the help I can get with bags under my eyes. Plus, it's relatively inexpensive. I think I may have to check it out!
With my travel schedule, I need to try this! :) Too bad it is not more accessible!
I love the sound of this company! I love any company that injects a good amount of humor into it's products. I love to see a great company offering great products without taking it's self so seriously. It makes me feel like I shouldn't be using their products because they're just do damn HAUGHTY. I'm not huge on eye creams and I have very sensitive eyes. Anyone tried it whose eyes burn and water with just about anything other than...water? It's odd- makeup rarely irritates my eyes, but cleaners and creams will make them burn like hell.
Satil-I mentioned in my review that I have very sensitive eyes and this does not bother me at all. So many other things like this do.
Maybe one day when I get bags under my eyes. My mom could use this product though! :)
I hope this company comes to the US. :) I'm all for a good eye cream! And their site is just hilarious.

This product looks interesting, my sister actually has a bigger problem with eye bags so I'd recommend this to her.
I want to get my hot little hands on some Anatomicals right now! The website is so much fun. I'll keep looking for someone to sell it in the US, and if that doesn't work out, I'll order from the UK. Or maybe it would just be more fun to fly over there and get it. Anyone up for a field trip??

This gives me a great idea for my moms birthday present, I have a gift bag that says "old fart bag" she'll love it!

I can't find this in town, but am ooking forward to the solution for my sensitive skin. Like my dearly-departed Grandfather used to say - Laugh at what doesn't kill you.
OMG!!!!!!! The website for Anatomicals is absolutely sensational! I love everything about it and even if you are not looking to make a purchase; just watching and reading everything on their website will make you happy! When I first looked at the website, I will admit, it was first thing in the morning and I was hot (not that kind of hot) – no hot, as in my body was overly sweaty because the heat index where I live is abnormally high. So, as I was saying, I was hot, still dead tired because it was, after all, about 6:00 in the morning and I was pretty much still a lump of unenthused flesh and brain matter waiting to jump start my morning. So, I thought to myself, “I really better check out the website before I post my personal review of the eye gel I received.” The very MOMENT I clicked on the Anatomicals website, I started smiling, and then my smile reached all the way to my eyes, then I cranked up the music that is playing and found myself instantly awake and excited and in SUCH A GOOD MOOD! I positively LOVE their website and everything about it! Hands down, it’s the most fun, most appealing to REAL people website for products on line that I have ever looked at! I can’t wait to show every single person I know (well at least the people who are fun like me!) The names they give their products … absolutely OUTSTANDING! I wish I could quit my job and run a store that sells all of their products here in Minnesota! I would be SO successful and people would absolutely LOVE coming to my store. I can’t say enough about how much fun the product names are. Then there are their descriptions of the product! Hysterical and yet completely to the point about what the product will do for you! I am SO impressed with how much fun this website is! They have cornered the market on originality in advertising and on going outside of the lines! I love things and people that are OUTSIDE OF THE LINES! Do yourself a favor and checkout the website and if you don’t like it you don’t have to come back to it ever again, but I’m thinking it would be your loss to not see it ever again!
Ok, as to the no old bags allowed eye gel! First off, seeing those words ‘no old bags allowed’ just cracked me up at first glance of the box the product came in! I always read the box before I open and in this case, I busted out laughing! I had to show everybody the box and literally brought it work – it’s so funny! I couldn’t wait to try it – right there – that’s great marketing if you cannot wait to bust the product out and try it! I was already smiling before even putting on my eyes and when I did I thought “Wow – this is very cooling!” It’s a clear gel that glides on effortlessly and so far I’m impressed! I’m totally going to try it on my upper lip as Goddess Granny suggested with the excess! I never would have thought about that! I love the information I learn here!
Jeanasina!
This is an interesting product. I do have problems with bags, sometimes, although since I have been making a major effort to sleep on my back, with my head a bit more elevated, I notice less baggage in the morning.
I really want a get my hands on this stuff too. I don't have bags under my eyes but occasionally I get black marks if I get overtired. I just want this! Their website ROCKS! I really want the Farewell the Scarlet pimplehell. I Love all the names and packaging of their products. This site is so cool!
Love the website! Where oh where I can I buy this? Artcandy

With my sleep schedule, this would be something nice to tryhttp://saimese.blogspot.com
OH, I'm so glad about this review! Never heard of Anatomicals before, but loved reading the comments about it, and I think the website is so cool. So today, I stopped in Marshall's to see if they had any. I found the Cheese Release Me foot cream - very nice! Also, a wonderful orange/lime body wash. Smells delightful, and comes in a cool cubed bottle. Very cute in my shower. I want to try more!!

Sounds great. I dont have bags but my mom does, I think this will be perfect gift for her birthday.
HaHa! That is a funny site. It says "are you dull, boring, and as much fun to have around as the plague." SO FUNNY! They can have my body...it needs help. :-)
A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.

The site looks really great. I have to check it out for longer though...who wants to hide my purse from me?

Oh no. So much for paying off that credit card....
I'm using it every single night before going to bed :) I literally like it!! It doesn't remove your eye bags magically but it still kinda works if you use it regularly. It's a gel texture that gives you a refreshing feeling instead of greasy. Remember to apply it with a tapping motion do not rub it!
I love the simple, yet witty packaging
I love this brand. THeir body scrubs smell really good. And looks worthy of trying/
I love the logo and slogan! Great concept.

That's so awesome! thanks for telling me about it!
The eye cream sounds like it works really well.
This stuff doesn't work for me, and I barely have any bags...i'm only 24. but a mom of 3 little ones and I don't get much sleep. i started noticing slight bagging under my eyes the past couple months. I ordered this cream from beautybay.com. I thought it would be great, but it did NOTHING for me, it gives a slight optical illusion because it's a shiny clear gel and it looks a little tiny bit better on than not, but it's def. not enough to brag about, in my opinion. anyway, I would skip this product and save up my money for something that really works. :)
I'm desperate to try a bunch of stuff from this company. The whole ethos is so cute, and the products are so cheap and i've only seen good reviews so far.
I NEED THIS! o m g. I really have bags under my eyes.I wish it was all clean and have the same skin tone as my face.. but it just HAS to be darker just there. = =;; and not only do I have bags, they're kinda puffy under my eyes. Maybe it's genetics or something, but this product might definitely help me.
i love this
haha wow! reallly want to try this!
