MY REVIEWS
OVERALL VERDICT >>>>> LOVE
RATING >>>>>>>>>>>>>> 5
My skin type:
Normal to Dry (Cheeks and chin area)/Combination Oily (T-zone), Uneven skin tone with lots of freckles and pigmentation on cheeks. Also, sensitive (redness) around the cheek area.
Just a note:
I generally do not wear make up except for sunscreen. On a daily basis, it's only my skin care and sunscreen, that's all.
How long have I used this:
A year.
Will I repurchase:
Yes, unless I found something cheaper that works the same or better. But for now, gotta love stuff that bring dead eyes to life!
This is another one of my favorites from CLARINS. Following it's predecessor, the Shaping Facial Lift Total V Contouring Serum, this one to me works the exact same way as the facial serum except that it's for eyes.
Most of the traits of this eye serum is exactly the same as the the facial serum, for example, the smell of this serum is as pleasant as the facial one but it does have a slightly, just a teeny bit thicker consistency and texture in comparison to the facial serum. Nevertheless, it's also as lightweight as the facial serum and absorbs almost immediately to allow for an eye cream application if applying eye cream is one of your skincare routine.
For me, I find that this eye serum works as both, a serum and eye cream altogether. I never really feel the need for eye creams anyway as I rarely have panda eyes nor dark circle.
One thing I noticed about this eye serum is that it brightens and firms the eye area making my face looks more awake which is what I was hoping for when I bought this eye serum. A little goes a long way too. This, used in combination with Foreo Iris (more on this later) really enhances not only the look around the eye area but the face overall.
All in all, this product delivers results that although it's pricey, I wouldn't mind repurchasing this in the future, unless I found something better and cheaper.
PROS
Lightweight.
Absorbs fast.
Skin around the eye area looks significantly brighter and firmer once applied.
Smells great. Mild and calming. Not at all overwhelming.
Noticeably brighter and firmer eyes day by day.
Helps get rid of eye rings and dark circles.
Pump bottle prevents the product from oxidation which reduces the potency of the product.
A little goes a long way. A pump or half a pump (if you know how to control the amount) is all it takes for both eyes.
Not cheap but not as expensive if used all on it's own.
Considering the results, worth the money if you don't mind splurging.
CONS
The bottle is not transparent, unable to know how much product is left in bottle.
Expensive especially if you have to purchase other eye products as well.
