  • TI can't believe the negatives about this product. I love it! It makes the skin around the eye super soft and soaks right in. It isn't heavy and greasy at all. Very light and has a pleasant smell. Thumbs up!

    I adore this eye balm! It soaks right in and has really made a wonderful difference in the skin around my eyes in a very short period of time. It also reduces the puffiness when applied in the morning before make-up.

Other factors to consider:

• Peels off for some
• Balls under the make-up
• Bad packaging
• Light moisturizing effects
• Gives some women allergies
• Other negative reviews:

  • Terrible! Did nothing and was not hydrating at all… and it was super expensive. Returned it after about a month of using it with no results.

    This eye balm balls up on me! I had to pick the bits off my eye area after it became dry. Not something you want to do in the morning when you are in a rush. I have never used any eye cream that balls up! I used to be curious about L'Occitane's facial skin care products, but this eye balm, in addition to another disappointing product from the same product line, has really turned me off! I think I will never buy any facial products from this brand again.

Description: Immortelle Eye Balm by L’Occitane is often suggested for the treatment of dark circles. The product is described by the company as such:

An eye cream with anti-aging benefits: Reduce dark circles, puffiness and signs of tiredness around the eyes with this gentle cream. Formulated with Immortelle essential oil, this cream will soothe, moisturize, nourish and tone the delicate skin around the eyes.

Ironically, the positive reviews of the users of Immortelle Eye Balm claim its effectivity more on the reduction of eye wrinkles, rather than the treatment of dark circles. It is said to reduce eye wrinkles, but is mostly useless for those dark circles around the eyes. Other positive points about this eye cream is that its not greasy, and also reduces the puffiness of the eyes. It has been pointed out by many though, that the eye balm has a tendency to ball up when used under make-up. There are also reports of certain allergies experienced after the product use. The eye balm comes in a glass tub, which is mostly disliked by many of the users. It has a light scent that does not irritate or noticeably stay on the face very long.

Directions for Use: To apply, tap a small amount of Eye Balm on the bone around the eye twice daily.

Ingredients: WATER, ROSA CENTIFOLIA FLOWER WATER, POLYMETHYL METHACRYLATE, PROPYLENE GLYCOL, RUSCUS ACULEATUS ROOT EXTRACT, GLYCERIN, MYRETH-3-MYRISTATE, NEOPENTYL GLYCOL DIETHYLHEXANOATE, DECYL OLEATE, HYDROLYZED WHEAT PROTEIN, POLYACRYLAMIDE, HELICHRYSUM ITALICUM EXTRACT, ZEA MAYS (CORN) STARCH , SORBITOL, DIMETHICONE, C13-14 ISOPARAFFIN, HEDERA HELIX (IVY) EXTRACT, PHENOXYETHANOL, BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII (SHEA BUTTER) EXTRACT, TOCOPHEROL, CARBOMER, LAURETH-7, XANTHAN GUM, BENZOIC ACID

Sunscreen: None

Recommendation: Not effective as an eye cream for dark circles. Rather, you could consider it for the treatment of your fine lines. However, I would like to reiterate the possible side effects and allergies you may experience with the eye cream. I would recommend getting hold of a tester, before buying the actual eye balm.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Eye Renewal Review

Rating:


Price:$99.00 Elemis Pro-Collagen Eye Renewal .5 oz. (Plus Shipping)

Guarantee: Depends on the store

Most effective for:

• Dark circles
• Minimizes fine lines
• Doesn’t feel heavy
• Gets easily absorbed
• Other positive review:

  • This is a fantastic addition to the pro-collagen range, it is lightweight but yet very moisturising. This product is easily absorbed around the eye area, and a single pump does both eyes, which makes it last for ages! I have been using this since it was launched, and have seen a reversal of the fine dehydration lines (aka wrinkles) that had started to appear on the outer corners of my eyes.

Other factors to consider:

• Stings the eyes
• Has a tendency to clog pores
• Doesn’t go well with make-up
• Expensive
• Other negative reviews:

  • I have been using the cream for approx 3weeks. I have noticed a difference in my dark circles. The only thing is wen i now apply my conceler it does not sit smoothly, where as before i cld get a nice smooth coverage now it jus clogs up and makes my eye area look dark. Does this happen to anyone else or is it jus me

Description: This is in the line of the more expensive eye creams, with a price of $99, a price you don’t usually shell out for an eye cream. The product is said to:

This intensive eye cream is formulated with a unique synergy of potent seaweeds that cleverly mimics the skin's function. The pwoerful anti-wrinkle properties of Padina Pavonica combined with the Amino Acids, Beta Carotenes and Vitamins B, C and E contained in Chlorella and Blue Green Micro-algae, help to smooth, firm and support ageing skin. Results are further optimixed with the anti-Oxidant properties of Methylsilanol Munnuronate, an organic derivate of seaweed that binds moisture in the Epidermis. Independent Clinical Trials* have proven that the appearance of fine lines around the eye contour is visibly toned and smoothed to reveal truly youthful eyes.

There are only a few reviews online about this eye cream, so research might be a bit difficult for you. However, for this much, I would expect optimum results with very minimal negativities to consider.

Directions for Use: Morning and evening, warm 2 pumps of Pro-Collagen between fingers and with firm patting movements work the product around the contour of both eyes, taking care not to drag the eye.

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Dicaprylyl Carbonate, PEG 8, Methylsilanol Mannuronate, Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Polyacrylate, Hexyldecanol, Hexyldecyl Laurate, Padina Pavonica Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Disodium EDTA, Methylparaben, Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides, Sorbitol, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Fragrance (Parfum), Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Algae Extract, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Tocopherol, Equisetum Arvense Extract, Persea Gratissima Leaf Extract (Avocado), Polygonum Fagopyrum Seed Extract, Hydroxyisohexyl 3 Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde, Acacia Decurrens Absolute, Rosa Damascena Flower Absolute, Butylphenyl Methylpropional

Sunscreen: None

Recommendation: I’m not very keen on this product. Although it does work for some women, for a price like this, I would expect exceptional results. I would suggest you go search for other natural eye creams with equal or better results, for a lower price

Plazan Anti Wrinkle Eye Cream Gold Review

Rating:


Price:$72.00 Plazan Anti Wrinkle Eye Cream Gold .5 oz.

Guarantee: 30 Day money back guarantee

Most effective for:

• Ingredients formulated to concentrate
• Money-back guarantee
• There are some reviews that claim to the effectivity of the eye cream
• Other positive review:

  • I’ve tried using it since my aunt raves about it all the time. When I finally got to try it, we have been battling over the cream whenever either of our stocks are out

Other factors to consider:

• Minimal reviews online or otherwise
• Expensive
• Some ingredients are taken from human or animal placenta
• Other negative reviews:

  • I didn’t notice any difference with this product. Waste of money

Description: The Plazan website says: Plazan anti wrinkle eye cream contains placental glycosaminoglycans and low-molecular components. Plazan anti wrinkle eye cream is specially created to smooth out wrinkles in the thin and delicate skin around the eyes. It improves blood micro-circulation, normalizes skin metabolism, promotes the retention of moisture in cells and intercellular spaces and improves the elasticity and resilience of connective tissue structures. The number of wrinkles is reduced and the puffiness and tiredness around the eyes disappears.

This is quite new in the market, and there are minimal reviews and women who have been able to try this. However, the ingredients are known to work for wrinkles, so it may be worth to try.

Directions for Use: Apply a thin layer of anti wrinkle eye cream for eyes onto cleansed skin, slightly tapping with fingertips until it is absorbed completely. Do not rub in. Use in the morning before applying make-up and in the evening after make-up removal.

Ingredients: water, olive oil, emulsive wax, glycerin monostearate, triethanolamine, polyvinylpyrrolidone, dibunol, parabens, aromatizer, low-molecular Plazan, glycosaminoglycans

Sunscreen: None

Recommendation: Being new and not very well proven yet, add in its being pricey, I would rate it at a 2. Try going through other eye cream reviews for the best eye cream.
