Lancome Genifique Advanced Genifique Light Pearl Review

Absolutely love this product!! I was so excited to trial this product. I found the consistency light, and loved how you apply it with the rotating and massaging applicator, it is really refreshing for the eye area. It doesn't really have a smell that I noticed. It goes a long way, I only had to dip it in the bottle a couple of times for both eye areas. I found it only takes about 20 seconds to absorb in, and it feels nice and smooth after. I have been using this for a couple of weeks morning and night and there is still over a half a bottle left, so should get a good month or a bit longer of use. I think this product is worth the money, its a bit more pricey than other products i have brought, but this is my new favorite and will definitely be buying more. The packaging is good, easy to understand, and the bottle is glass. After 2 weeks of use i can notice a difference in the appearance around my eyes, it has started to smooth out my fine lines, so I definitely think after 4 weeks of use it will show more results. I would recommend this product to everyone, its so nice and easy to use and great results:)

It is Such a pretty bottle you want it on display!! Looks lovely. It’s easy to open, and has a pearl drop which you use to apply the product around your eye area. I found it a little tricky at first with the applicator but once you know how much product you need and using it a few times it becomes easier. It’s nice and cooling and like a wee massage when you apply it. You only need a very small amount. It absorbs nicely into your skin with no sticky residue, My eye area skin feels smoother and brighter.

My Christmas came early this year and the lovely ladies at Beauty Review gave me the opportunity to review the Lancome Genifique Advanced Genifique Light Pearl serum! The serum comes in an amazing bottle that has a massaging applicator in the lid of the bottle that allows you to get the serum everywhere you need it to go around your eye contour and on your lashes easy peezy. I love love love the results of using this for just over 2 weeks, once a day. Fine lines are finer, bags have been unpacked and don't exist at all now! My eyes look younger and my lashes look stronger, its like Lancome found the fountain of youth and bottled it. Its not the cheapest eye serum on the market at around $130 for 20 ml but its worth every cent!

Whether I like it or not my skin is getting a little bit older and one of the most affected areas for me is my eye lids of all places! They have become a little 'hooded' over time so a product like this is just what I've been looking for and it delivered. I've only been using it a week and yet I can see a noticeable difference in the firmness of my lids. They are just not so saggy. The applicator is very good - well sculpted to get to all those hard to reach areas which when you try with your finger usually ends with some in your eye. Another be beautifully elegant bottle from Lancome. Awesome experience from beginning to end. Will definitely buy again.

I was beyond excited to trial this little number and it didn't disappoint at all. I have been using this both morning and night and have noticed the skin around my eyes a lot brighter, before it looked quite dull and tired. So now I don't look like I've had an all nighter! I wouldn't say that the dreaded wrinkles have disappeared but I don't think that miracle exists in a bottle. It is super easy to use and the applicator makes it feel like a mini eye massager. I did find it took a bit longer to absorb into my skin but once it had my skin felt amazing. It smells nice and not over powering. I highly recommend this product.

I was so excited to try this product as I’ve never tried an eye serum before. I was a little nervous that it wouldn’t sit well under makeup and or eye cream. I had no need to worry I wore my normal eye cream over the top every day and just the serum at night and applied to my lashes. I couldn’t notice any bunching or separating of my concealer over the top so it’s definitely makeup safe. The best thing about this serum is how much it de puffs the under eye. I’ve had several comments over the past few weeks on how “rested I look “. I normally wait a few minutes for it to sink in before applying my eye cream and it’s completely invisible. If you don’t have dry under eyes you could probably get away with just using this. I also have sensitive eyes and they weren’t bothered by this formula at all, even when it’s applied to the lashes. I have noticed my lashes look slightly longer but I’ve also been applying this to my brows and I’ve definitely noticed that the tail of my brows is longer (woohoo). I don’t love the applicator as I can’t tell how much serum I’m using and I feel like it is dragging when I apply it. The bottle however is beautiful and feels and looks very luxurious . I will definitely purchase this product again as I’ve not found anything else that gives me these results.

Lancome's eye & lash concentrate is packaged in a black and silver, luxurious-looking box, with the distinctive, silver Lancome flower on top.

Open up the box, and the product itself comes in a nifty-looking bottle, which is a matte silver with a shiny silver lid. The bottle is mostly silver, but with a little black lettering and blackish/silver base. It's a stunner. All in all, this product has been packaged beautifully, but I would expect nothing less from Lancome.

I was excited about using this product as I do suffer from dark rings under my eyes and a little puffiness or eye bags (who doesn't suffer from that kind of stuff at the age of 45?). Its fragrance is subtle - it doesn't really have much of a smell, which is good when you have to apply something near your eyes. I personally don't care for eye serums that have too much of a smell. So it ticked that box straight away.

To apply it, you just sweep the tip of the applicator gently back and forth around your eye contours, as has been shown on the box. Then - again using the flexible applicator - massage the product into your skin. There's no need to get messy fingers: by using the applicator itself to massage it in, you avoid the need to get it all over your fingers. Another excellent design by Lancome.

But, now for the drum roll please... the WOW factor for me through using this concentrate is definitely the fact that my under-eye area in particular feels INCREDIBLE. I feel it targets the puffiness issue incredibly well. I have been using it every day for the past few weeks, and it certainly makes a difference to the appearance and feel of my under-eye area. What eye bags? I'm honestly now asking myself that very question! Wow. I really love this product. It makes such a difference to the way my skin feels around the eye area, and it even makes me feel less tired whenever I apply it! How a product can achieve that is beyond me, but that's the effect it has on me. It contains probiotic fractions in it, so perhaps that really helps it to work so effectively, I don't know. I'm not a scientist. All I can tell you is that my under-eye area LOVES this product! My lashes too feel silkier yet also somewhat stronger, so that's a bonus as well. What a great little number from Lancome!

Depuffing brilliance in a silver-shaded bottle. It's a big thumbs up from me. Five kisses.

I'm in my mid 40's so with my eye area, fine lines, circles and just general appearance of my skin are concerns. I'm very lucky in that I haven't yet got too many deep wrinkles but definitely find lines and just in need of 'brightening' generally are attributes I look for when looking at eye serums/products.

This eye serum is beautiful. The Génifique Eye Light Pearl is a really unique product from others I've tried. The wand is amazing. Takes a little getting used to as it's very flexible to work with the contours of your eyes - but once you get the hang of it, it's fantastic. It gets product in the places needed. Love it!

Another very Luxe looking glass bottle. I do love Lancôme packaging! To use, open the bottle, swirl off excess product and simply apply to the under eye area, a sweep across the upper lash line, and brow bone area, and then continue massaging under the eye with the applicator.

The wand is very cooling and soothing on the eye area as it massages the serum in, applying the product in all the right places. It is a really light serum, and absorbs quickly. Over the past few weeks, there hasn't been really dramatic results, but definitely some subtle changes. I have found fine lines are softer, and the dark circles (which mine aren't terrible) certainly appear lighter. I feel my eyes look a little less aged looking (like blurring), and the skin around my eyes softer. It definitely softens the eye and makes ever. Make up applies easier around the eye area, gliding over, and not caking in the fine lines.

My lashes - hard to tell their change, but if this serum is like other lash serums it takes 6-8 weeks to see those kind of changes, so I'm reserving judgement, but I did feel these past few days they looked fuller/thicker.

Again, a pricey product, but with the help of the lovely wand, you don't tend to waste too much product, so it will last a long time. I feel it delivers on it's claims, and is worth every penny. And, if the lashes look nourished and fall out less, then its potentially a 2-in-1 product, which makes the price more appealing too as it's a real saving, considering how much lash serums cost!

I can't fault the product. It's lovely on the eye area. Definitely softens the wrinkles and fine lines. Dark circles are definitely lighter. Lashes look healthy. I think this product needs longer use to really reap the benefits it offers. I don't get 'bags' as such, but the cooling wand is sure to be a hit with anyone that has 'bags' issues.

If you can afford it and love an 'all-rounder' eye 'serum then this one is lovely and one I'll likely re-purchase, though I think this bottle will last quite a long time.

Thank you again BR for a fabulous opportunity to Trial beautiful products.... Lancôme is now a must have in my routine, and so glad I was on this trial. I head into Christmas with a glow

This was a really interesting product, the packaging was sophisticated, the bottle is glass in a luxurious silver pearl and does not hint to the strange applicator inside. The applicator is weird, it is a steel teardrop on a rod that protrudes from the plastic cap.

The first time I opened it it and heard the satisfying clink of the metal applicator against the rim of the bottle I thought 'oooooh fancy like champagne'. Quickly followed by 'what on earth am I meant to do with this'.

I followed the instructions to the letter and found this product messy to use. Mainly because it is hard to get prescison with a big steel ball tip. I basically run the applicator over the line of my top lashes (and half over the eye-lid, can't help it) and under the eye - for the grey tired baggies.

The product claims to produce results as early as 7 days. But I haven't seen any difference yet and I have been using it for 2.5 weeks everyday. Nevertheless, I like the pamper experience and will continue.

Even when the product is finished I will be keeping the applicator as the instant cooling of the steel on my end-of-day tired eyes feels so soothed and relaxed. Really the applicator is the only reason I gave this product a 4 star instead of 3.

Fingers crossed I am a late bloomer and start seeing results soon.

This is a fantastic product, I feel very lucky to try it!

The bottle is just as classy as the face serum and the applicator is very different to anything I've seen before.

I have quite puffy, dark eye surrounds. A mix of age and long hours I think! This is one of those products that works both straightaway and builds up long term benefits. I found after use in the morning my eyes were lighter and brighter and just felt less tired.

Over the course of this trial I think my overall texture with regards to lines and wrinkles has improved massively.

My lashes do look a bit thicker than before I think, but for me this is a real winner as an eye serum.
