“Everyone thought it was complete insanity,” admits Melanie Simon, the celebrity facialist, of her new Circ-Cell ABO Blood Serum, a somewhat eerily named eye gel said to mimic certain functions of human blood topically with the help of powerful perfluorocarbons. “As we get older, our blood vessels break down and become increasingly unable to deliver nutrients to our tissues and metabolize waste,” she says. ABO Blood is targeted to the under-eye area, specifically dark circles and puffy or crepe-y skin, but Simon slathers it over her entire face. “It’s especially great for city dwellers,” she says. “If you press it in after your skin-care regimen, it will lock in your products, protect your skin from the environment and feed it, all at the same time.” $118; circcell.com.
