Do I really need a serum just for my eyes? After using this blue gem of a product the answer is...yes!
This is easy to apply and absorbs well. I like to use it morning and night before my moisturiser. In the morning it makes my eyes feel refreshed and awake and at night it soothes my tired eyes.
This has had a noticeable effect on my crows feet, smoothing out the wrinkles rather nicely!
Highly recommend!
I was lucky to receive this as part of a trial team. Like other La Roche Posay products I have tried the eye serums packaging was simple but sleek, I do like their style. The applicator was a droplet wand with a rollerball on the end, the idea being you squeeze a small amount of product into the wand, wipe off the excess and apply the serum to your skin.
Firstly, the positives. I do like a rollerball applicator and found it cooling against my skin, which helped with puffiness around my eyes in the morning. The serum itself didn’t appear to have much of a fragrance and was a lightweight liquid which felt very hydrating against the skin. I do agree the serum made my skin feel nourished and more radiant.
The downside? I really disliked the applicator. I felt like it took up too much product and even with wiping off the excess I still got drops of it coming off the wand and I felt it ended up using more serum than needed. I’m also not a fan of using the rollerball on my skin and then dipping it back into the remaining serum, it feels less hygienic to me.
I wouldn’t purchase this myself but if the applicator didn’t sound like an issue for you then the serum itself is nice enough and it is an affordable option for an eye product.
Tips: Make sure to wipe off excess before applying.
