L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Eye Cream Review

Eye creams. Hmm. Are they just a day cream in a smaller, more expensive jar?

I started using this eye cream somewhat negatively, due to my preconception of eye creams in general. L'Oreal apparently sensed my cynicism and decided to blow me away with the first use.

The texture is rich but light - and its definitely not the same as either the day or night cream! The scent is very, very light, which is what I want when a product is going near my eyes!

It melts into the skin and feels instantly cooling and refreshing. My bags/dark circles seemed less puffy. Honestly within 10 minutes I no longer looked like an extra from The Walking Dead.

Over the last four weeks I've noticed a huge difference in my under eye area - less puffy and less dark, and the fine lines around my eyes are definitely looking less, erm, crease-y.

I love this SO much I can't mark it down for being in a pot.

The Revitalift Eyecream is in a smaller square jar than the day and night creams, and is the perfect size to be part of the range. Other than the smaller size, it has a red lid (not white) so is easy to see at a glance what product you are choosing.

The cream itself for some reason felt slightly ‘lighter’ to me than the day and night cream, and absorbed beautifully. The instructions say to apply gently from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner, tapping with the fingertips. This is the first time I have seen instructions like this, I’ve always been told to use the ring finger and go from outer to inner eye. I’m unsure if the tapping creates a different reaction, or if just to ensure you’re not pulling at the delicate skin, but either way it works. The cream seems to be unscented, which I actually liked, and it never created any irritation or discomfort with use.

As for results – I was pleasantly surprised. The fine lines around the outer corner of my eye, and the delicate skin below my eye have improved, with lines reducing or disappearing, and everything seems more plump, with no sagging.

Overall I would happily use this product again. It’s a great price point to get results.

Positive: Great container looks and feels impressive. The cream was rich and unctious so felt great applying around the eye area. Negative: I prefer using a tube or pump for my eye cream. I feel you don't use as much. The fragrance again was like cheap air freshener. A fiddly lid the square lid is awkward to close.

Would I use again? I will need to wait a further month to see results as my skin renews. I enjoyed the texture and can deal with the negative if I see results.

I was super excited when I was picked for this review - been using good old faithful products that I reviewed a few years ago and thought this would give me the option to find something new - This regime consisted of: L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Day Cream SPF 15 LOréal Paris Revitalift Night Cream & LOréal Paris Revitalift Eye Cream. Great looking set of these products arrived in nice looking boxes. The day cream has a nice peach colour to it and not to heavy for day wear. The night cream consist of a rich white cream that spreads easily over the face, and I used eye cream sparingly because it is quite thick compared to other eye creams I have used in the past. No overwhelming fragrance that suited me just fine. I did not have to use much of any of these creams as it spread easily onto the face and neck.

I have been using the product close on 3 weeks and still it I have only used a little bit - think these will last for quite a long time and I think it will be good value for the price. Its is pretty affordable as long as you don't go out and buy them all at once. The pretty simple and I liked the presentation - unfortunately again packaging goes to waste (outer packaging) - the white containers easily fit on my dresser. I think that using the products for longer will help to reach its full potential, I don't think it can be reached in only a few weeks - its not a miracle cream that have made my wrinkles magically disappear unfortunately but I'm still holding out for a miracle :)

I have flirted with several different eye creams over the years. It has always been one of those things I buy, use for three days and then lose in my drawer. Not this time though. The people at Beauty Review needed me. So true to my word I have used the L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Eye Cream every day for the past month and while I haven’t noticed a reduction in wrinkles or crows feet I have enjoyed having hydrated eyelids. This cream made my eyes feel more supple and look brighter, and in a way made me believe I was warding off the aging process one blob of cream at a time. Immediately after use, the skin around my eyes feels softer and smoother. It comes in a very small package (they say all the best things do) and you only need a tiny bit for it to do its magic. This cream isn’t as thick as the others in the Revitalift range but it still feels pretty rich. There is little to no scent which is a positive in my book. I would recommend this cream to others, and will be buying another jar once the time comes.

Another cream I was very excited to try! It came in a small pot which I thought was the perfect size and instructions that were easy to follow. The cream was a very nice consistancy and you only need to use such a tiny amount so I think this would be value for money. Unfortunately my eyes don't seem to like this as every time I put it on I would wake with very itchy eyes, I would test it by not using it and didn't wake with itchy eyes so its defiantly the cream. I would actually recommend this to a friend but if you have sensitive skin I would be wary first.

I was excited to see how this would live up to its claims. Unfortunately for me I did not experience all the claimed benefits of using this eye cream alongside the day and night set. It was an easy cream to apply. Nice and light and easily absorbed. It did feel a quite moisturizing on my eyes without being greasy. So I would say it did hydrate my eye area. Unfortunately, as to its claims of reducing crows feet and wrinkles I am unsure. It may be due to not suing for long enough or just not be the case at all. Overall I was happy to use the eye cream for the benefits of hydration but would not say this is a miracle anti-wrinkle cream.

I really liked this eye cream - it was quite thick but easy to apply and easily absorbed. I used in conjunction with Revitalift night cream to difficult to determine if my skin felt great because of eye cream or moisturiser.

Personally I did not see any results from using this cream. It's thick so a little goes a long way. It doesn't have much of a scent. I picked it up for cheap online and was hoping it would at least brighten my eye area or something nice but no definetely does not lift or firm the eye area. I reused the little container to put one of my broken lipsticks into it.

I got his eye cream in the last vault. I love L'Oreal products so was very happy to get it. I liked that it got great reviews as well.

The product comes in an easy to use 15ml, screw top pot. Kinda small for the price, but not outside the boundary for a superior product.

It is a cooling, moderately thick cream. I'm not sure it is a cream, but it's closer to a cream than it is to anything else. I note other people commented that it is thick, but I love thick creams and serums on my dry skin, so it certainly suits me.

LIke the night cream I'm using it with, it is very reminiscent of Ponds cream and has the exact same scent. If it came in a plain pot I would swear to God it was Ponds. And I used Ponds for years and loved it, so it's a compliment to say that.

I've been using it every morning and evening and I like the feel. It is soothing and hydrating. Oddly for my age, I don't have lines under my eyes but do have puffiness at times. This product does appear to reduce that puffiness. Based on that, I can say it does do what it says it will do.

Do I think it's a superior product that justifies the price? yes I do. There are a lot of eye creams around and I think this, while not the best I've used, it in the top three. That's pretty good. I do recommend trying it, particularly if, like me, you like a nice thick, cooling, hydrating eye cream.
