I got this eye cream in the Staff Picks BBBE and I was keen to try it as I'd heard other people say they liked it, and I knew it was pretty pricey.
It comes in a cute white cardboard box with a pink lid and Dr Lewinns branding - attractive and pretty. Inside, a surprisingly small, white, pot holds the actual product.
The product itself is more gel-like and less of a cream. It is kind of silky-shiny-simmery-transparent all at the same time.
Once applied, it is refreshingly cool and absorbs very quickly. I really like the initial cool feeling. I have to say though, after using it for a while, I haven't really noticed any difference in my eyes. I really wanted to, and hoped I would, but I really can't see any changes. It hasn't reduced/revived any lines nor reduced any puffiness, nor firmed anything, as the product claims to do, so apart from enjoying the cooling feeling when the product is applied, it hasn't impressed me.
The instructions say to use sparingly and I have, so the pot will last for ages, but that's not really a bonus if it isn't doing anything. It has Vitamin A and collagen and elastin, so I thought it would do something - maybe it takes a lot longer than a few weeks to notice a difference or maybe it just doesn't work so well for more mature skin. Either way, I'll use it to the end of the pot, but I won't be repurchasing it.
This wasn't too of my to try list when I got this in my beauty box so it day unopened for a little while. This is a 30g tub that is used sparingly so it will definitely last a while. The product itself is a lovely shimmery gel which has a pleasant but soft aroma. This has a cooling effect when applied which seems to dry and tighten at the same time. Not sure I've seen any great results as yet bit I'll keep using it. Only downside is occasionally it seems to form a skin which when you touch round your eyes later comes off. I don't think it's visible to anyone else and it may just be me using to much product but worth being noted. Overall don't think I would purchase this product myself but it is a nice pampering treat for now.
