La Roche Posay Hyalu B5 Eye Serum

1. The consistency of the product in my opinion was not too bad. Wasn't too thick or too thin, actually just right 2. The bottle is small, and the applicator is sturdy, I just did not like the ball like applicator at the end as the tube was not too sturdy, and I had to hold on too the tube to keep the ball applicator steady, once I did this it was fine too apply 3. I could not really smell anything 4. You really only need a little bit of the product at a time around the area of the eye you are busy with 6. If you use a little product at a time I think the product would last a long time 8. Like the box that it came in, the bottle was small, but a good material and the applicator wasn't bad either 9. I can definitely see some results, maybe not as some people, but it definitely reduced the puffiness around my eyes and the wrinkles around my eye area is definitely less defined

I had never used an eye serum until La Roche Posse’s B5 Hyaluronic Acid Eye Serum. I was very excited as I do have relatively dark under eyes and was wanting to purchase a product that would help lighten them as well as plump them.

On first use of the product, I was not expecting a massage roller at the tip of the applicator but I really loved the thought behind it. I felt that having the massage roller added to the care that we should really be providing around our eyes and is really a great way to reinforce the optimal amount of product onto the skin. The serum itself is really moisturising and the skin under my eyes is really soft. Its effect lasts throughout the whole day. On application, it can feel a bit sticky but after a couple of minutes it does absorb into the skin. It does not have a strong smell to it

I generally have sensitive skin and this serum did not cause any flair ups or reactions. After 3 weeks of using the serum (x2 daily application), I have definitely noticed the lightening under my eyes and well as the area slightly plump firmer from the triage of B%, caffeine and hyaluronic acid. After using the eye serum, I have gotten so many compliments on the complexion of my skin around my eyes. I have absolutely loved incorporating this product into my morning and nightly routine and will continue using it. I was very lucky to be able to try this product and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting extra hydration in addition to lightening their under eyes.

I really like this product. Used as directed, smoothing with finger tips, to remove excess, for me to say I like this product is huge. I never like eye serums! But this is gorgeous! It’s so light and cool. After a week I noticed some improvement in dark circles, and then just used every couple of nights (mostly because I didn’t remember every night). There’s no smell (if even a little smell, it is nice, but I don’t notice much at all), it’s clear colour makes it fee cleaner and lighter than any creams. It os lighter than any serum I have tried before. The applicator is great, it suggested making little circles with it as you apply. I was surprised when I found the ball doesn’t seem to roll, not sure if it’s meant to, but it doesn’t easily, i’d have to press harder than I’d want to to get it to roll, but that doesn’t matter, as it still can be gently moved in a circular motion anyway. I definitely always remove the excess by moving it around the inside neck of the bottle before applying. This is important as you would get too mach otherwise. I usually wipe some more excess off with my finger tips too. I also love the little blue glass bottle, it makes it look clean and refreshing and inviting to use. And I think it’s just a nice looking little bottle to leave out on my bathroom shelf (so I don’t forget to use it). So happy with the results. The first eye serum I have ever liked, and it works!!

Nice basic packaging, easy to read instructions and pictures inside the box. A glass bottle with a glass dropper when you change the top over. The dropper has a silver ball that rolls when you use it, the only problem I have with that is the blue non fragrant runny serum runs down the glass tube and drops down my cheek, so I haven’t really used the dropper to suck some serum up as I find more than enough comes down the outside of the dropper, when I use the ball to smear it around it’s absolutely lovely nice and cold and soothing. ( I really don’t like the amount of serum that runs down the dropper, only once have I squeezed any serum up) so I use the tube to rub some serum around on my eye area then use the ball to massage it in.

I do feel a bit sticky where I have used the serum around my eyes, but I’ve faithfully been applying this morning and night. My make up goes on unaffected as does my mascara etc

I’m at the age where I have loads of crinkle thin skin around my eye’s a criss cross affect of dry creepiness, definitely a tell tell sign of age and a bit of darker shadowing around my eye area closer to the nose so a semi dark circle.

I’d actually quit on eye creams and serums about 6 months ago, as I wasn’t really getting results worth mentioning, so blow me down quite a bit of improvement in my eye area I’d say for me hydration is important as it plumps the skin out making the wrinkles less. It’s also like a wake my eye area up a bit brighter.

For me using this day and night I do have some results so pleased with the skin texture I feel it’s bouncier dare I say stronger. So a very nice serum and no stinging when it gets in your eye lol. The only down fall for me is the serum running down the dropper on the out side .

This is a winner for results not application applicator :) This bottle looks like it will last a long time as I’ve hardly made a dent in it, so feeling value for my money, I’d definitely buy this again.

The La Roche Posay Hyalu B5 Eye Serum arrived in a stylish white box containing a 15ml blue bottle. The serum has a lovely light fragrance. Although the liquid appears blue, its actually clear.

The applicator/dropper contains a massaging roller ball on the end. This makes it very easy it apply the serum. Squeeze all the serum from the dropper before dabbing 3-4 times under your eyes and massaging in small circles. Its very easy to use. Because you use such a small amount, the serum will last a long time.

As a lady of Italian decent, I've always had dark circles and bags under my eyes. In the 3 weeks that I've been using the serum I've noticed a reduction in puffiness and lightning in my dark circles. I'm really looking forward to seeing more improvement in the coming weeks.

The only thing that may stop me using this product is the price, but even then I'd still seriously consider buying it.

I am almost 40, and have combination skin, which can get dry in winter, including around the eye area. My eye area can be sensitive also, and I wear contact lenses. I have used eye creams in the past, but it's been a while.

This eye serum comes in a small blue glass bottle. It has an applicator, which is kind of cross between a dropper and a roller ball. The serum is clear and gel-like, and I haven't noticed any scent.

I have been using this serum morning and night after cleansing and toning my face. It feels nice and cooling to apply the serum with the applicator, but I don't like to rub it in too much, because I don't want to irritate the eye area. So I apply it with the applicator, and rub in with my fingers.

The serum feels hydrating and non-irritating on my skin. However, I did once accidentally get some in one my eyes, and it stung, so be careful!

I'm not sure if it is firming, as I don't have any sagging, fine lines, or wrinkles around my eye area. But it definitely is hydrating, and makeup sits nicely over it. I would recommend!

I was lucky enough to be picked by BR to review this product! I am a fan of ground roots skincare, I really believe our skin and complexion starts with how well we look after and nourish it. I’ve been through a very stressful life period recently and had developed noticeable under eye bags to the point where I thought I should buy a good concealer. Instead, I started using this product and they’ve basically packed up and left my face :) I really like the format of this product. The metal roller ball applicator is really calming and relaxing to use. I avoid the eye area with my facial serum and reserve it for this lovely eye serum to do it’s good work. The packaging is what I like, simple and to the point, you know what you’re getting. The roller ball is very functional, my only gripe with it is that it inevitably drips a bit of product elsewhere when you’re applying it. The product itself feels thick and luxurious. Once you’ve massaged it in it is absorbed well by my skin and it feels comfortable to wear. I regret not taking a photo before I started using this product for a side by side comparison but I think my eye area is noticeably firmer and glowier (that’s a word right?). I’ve enjoyed using this product so much that it’s going to be added as a staple to my daily skincare routine. 5/5 would purchase in the future.

I have tried a few La Roche Pisay products now and have not been let down yet. Packaging is nice and sturdy- I liked that the bottle is see through, the dropper is a good size, functions well and distributes an even amount of product (would suggest tapping the side off before you apply to avoid drips). The roller is a nice touch- love the cool feeling under my eyes.

The product itself is nice, no weird chemically smell, isn't too "thick", absorbs into the skin well and sits nicely under makeup (I did pat into the skin after rolling to really work the product in before applying makeup).

Results? I used both day and night for several weeks and by day 8/9 I definitely noticed that my under eyes looked less crepey and my makeup has been sitting better- particularly when I conceal under my eyes.

I will purchase this- I think there are potentially better products out there but bang for buck and longevity I think this is really good and am definitely impressed.

My main concern was my dark circles. Since they're not extremely dark I was hoping to see some change. I've been using this product for approximately 3 weeks (day and night) and unfortunately there has been little to no improvement.

The packaging definitely stands out on my vanity - a petit blue tinted glass bottle perfect for travel. It comes with a steel rollerball dropper, which for those who use facial tools may find fantastic, but for me it veered more towards the gimmicky side and not very practical.

To apply, you need to make sure you have just enough in your dropper so you don't dispense excess product unnecessarily (very easy to do). I only filled the dropper just above the rollerball and even that can still be too much because the consistency is watery and therefore spreads easily. 

Using the rollerball, I massaged the product around the contours of my eyes. My biggest issue is that the product is not easily absorbed into the skin using just the rollerball, I need to use my fingers too. There's a slight stickiness left behind which is fine as I don't wear makeup under my eyes.

At first glance the price point is steep however you really don't need a lot - the problem is the application method is prone to product wastage. At this stage, I'm quite underwhelmed and I won't be recommending this unless I see some improvement in my dark circles.
