Beauty Product Reviews
I’m not in love, but I do like it
Let me start by saying this is a very nice eye concentrate in terms of texture, hydration, effectiveness under makeup. But for the steep price, I would never consider a repurchase. Not when there are so many medical grade options for half the price that are just as if not more effective. That’s why this gets four stars instead of five. But taking price out of the equation I am very pleased. The feel of this when pressing in between my ring fingers and then tapping gently around the lower eye area is very nice. Cushiony, light, balmy, silky. It glides very nice onto the eye skin, and although immediately it doesn’t seem like it will completely sink in, after just a minute or two it completely absorbed. Leaves my skin feeling hydrated (and without a film like some other products do) and perfectly primed for makeup. I can tell hyaluronic acid is in this product. It does appear to give a of amount of hydration, and my eye area does not appear to have a dried out look throughout the day. I do find myself wanting something heavier for nighttime though. Maybe that’s just personal preference. Do I think it helps with fine lines and wrinkles? After only a month of use I am not so sure. I think if anything the hydration it gives and plumped my fine lines a bit, but not sure about long-term repair of lines which is something I always am looking for. As far as claims of brightening and improving radiance, I do think it has temporary effects. It like a very subtle pearl type opulence that I think reflects light and makes the area brighter as an optical illusion, but again I would not say there is any long-term benefit from extended use. I’m glad I was able to try this complementary for testing purposes, but I will continue to purchase eye products at a lower price point.
