Always in search of the perfect eye
cream?. Here are four new ones We Like
Tried
& Tested Eye Creams
Garnier Caffeine Eye Roll-On
My concerns: Mainly puffiness and dark
circles under my eyes.
What I noticed immediately: When I began
using this product the area under my eves was very puffy and dark but this
roll-on gel is truly addictive and effective. Immediately after rolling on, I
felt a pleasant cooling sensation. I like that it has no odor and does not
irritate envy eves at all.
Results after prolonged use: The dark
circles under my eves have not disappeared, but I think there will definitely
be a difference with continued use. The puffiness, however, is almost
completely gone and I look more awake. The clear gel is absorbed immediately,
which I like. I initially used it once a day, but now I apply it in the
mornings and in the evenings and can see results far quicker.
Pond's Flawless Radiance White Light
Infusing Under-Eye Cream
My concern: Puffiness caused by late nights
and early mornings.
Pond's
Flawless Radiance White Light Infusing Under-Eye Cream
What I noticed immediately: First and
foremost I loved the mother-of-pearl-like tube - it's so beautiful and minimalist
and an ideal size, which I love. Every time I applied the cream, I felt a
lovely cool sensation and it was immediately absorbed into my skin. The process
of massaging in the cream (with your ring finger for the least pressure), is
very calming too. (Play a little Melody Gardot for better results and instant
relaxation.)
Results after prolonged use: My eyes look
more awake and definitely were less puffy. The skin below term also has a glow
which I am loving.
Lancome Visionnaire Advanced Skin
Corrector
My concerns: My biggest concern is probably
my crow’s feet. I am getting married in it few months and want picture perfect
(wishful thinking) eyes!
What I noticed immediately: This is not an
eye cream as such but a serum that can also be used on the sensitive eve area,
making it more of an anti-ageing multitasked. It is definitely soothing and
felt cool on my skin. I like the fact that I can feel the serum on my skin and
that it doesn't just ‘disappear'. Right away the skin around my eyes felt
slightly tighter - and the serum has it lovely smell.
Results after prolonged use: I think that
the skin around my eves is a lot smoother and brighter, and the pigmentation in
that area has been reduced noticeably. After about two weeks my so-called
wrinkles (I am still in denial) seemed less obvious. I will definitely continue
using this product twice daily.
Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv Re-Creation Eye
Balm
My concerns: I generally suffer from dark
circles under my eyes as well as a little puffiness.
What I noticed immediately: This cream is
incredibly moisturizing. I feel as if it plumped up the skin around my eye area
right away and I noticed less puffiness on waking in the morning.
Results after prolonged use: I have been
using the product for over two weeks and the thing I love most about it is that
a little goes a long way, so you don't feel as if you're going to have to
replenish it after three weeks. Besides the luxurious texture and instant motorization
(and the lovely fragrance), my eyes, without a doubt, are less puffy, the dark
rings are already slightly lighter and I am sure that with continued use most
of my concerns will be addressed.
