Hey all!! It's a gorgeous summer day here in Canada! I actually have a day off, so I am sitting outside in the sun writing up this review for you guys :) I feel this is the perfect product to do a write up on because it is definitely one that is on the pricier side - so is it worth your hard earned $$ or not?? That is the question! I have tested this product out since JANUARY (through cold dry winter and hot summer days)...it has maybe one or two uses left it its lil' lifespan. So I can give you an accurate run down of the positives and negatives! Enjoy xo!
Price: C$100.00
Size: .5 oz
Claims: Cooling formula. Diminishes and prevents signs of aging. Moisturizes and firms eye area. Reduces dark circles, puffiness. Illuminates and revives eye area. Improves elasticity.
Key Ingredients:
- Black Tea, Blackberry Leaf Extract, and Lychee Seed Extract (To inhibit damaging free radicals and improve elasticity)
- Noni Fruit Juice (Retain and increase moisture)
Free Of:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Phthalates
Positive Thoughts:
- A little goes a long way! (Like I mentioned, this has lasted since January using it twice daily)
- Fast absorbing (no greasey residue)
- Does not interfere with makeup application
- Very moisturizing (Even during the harsh winter months!)
- Rich & creamy texture (but it feels light on the skin)
- Light fragrance (I cannot smell it when applied)
- Non-irritating (Note: although my skin is not very sensitive)
- After a couple months of use I did notice my eyes looked more hydrated and mildly plump
Negative Thoughts:
- Did not eliminate my dark circles
- Only a very mild reduction in puffiness (absolutely no effect on my puffy eyes after I work a night shift)
- Did not diminish any fine lines
- Did not feel a cooling sensation
The Verdict?
I will still be on the search for that holy grail eye cream. If moisturizing was my only reason for purchasing, then it is fantastic! However - like I have mentioned before - I work nights and need something to really combat puffiness, dark circles and fine lines. My undereyes will forever be a battle!! (And most likely, I will need to change my job to eliminate half of my problems).
If I am going to spend $100 on a product - I want immediate and noticeable effects. I think this is more of a preventative eye cream.
What eye creams have you guys used?? Leave a comment down below! And look forward to my journey as I battle these pathetic "night shift undereyes!"
