Hello folksickles. Today's review will be for the L'Oreal Paris Eye Defense Eye Cream.
Availability: This retails for $13-$18 and can be purchased at drugstores that carry L'Oreal. I would suggest calling ahead to ensure the product is in stock if you're interesting in purchasing it in-person.
Would I buy this again?: I'm not sure.
What is this product designed to address?
According to lorealparisusa.com this is what the product is and what it does:
Reduces puffiness, lines and dark circles.
Light-weight, non-greasy. Dermatologist and Ophthalmologist Tested.
Defend
the delicate eye area against the first signs of aging. Eye Defense
smooths fine lines, reduces puffiness, and diminishes dark circles.
This light, non-greasy gel-cream is designed for all skin types.
Does it contain any special/beneficial ingredients?
Glycerin: Helps draw moisture to the skin.
Jojoba Seed Oil: Has hydrating properties.
Caffeine: Helps boost circulation thereby reducing puffiness and dark circles.
Oat Kernel Extract: Has hydrating, soothing, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Hyaluronic Acid: Helps skin retain and lock in moisture.
What is the texture like?
I'd describe the texture as a lightweight yet hydrating gel cream.
Is it scented?
It has a"clean" soap-like scent.
My overall experience/comments on the product:
Honestly I have been playing with this eye cream for about a month now and have really been liking it. I like that it's lightweight but gives my eye area good hydration, it's not heavy, it absorbs quickly, I do find that it de-puffs my under eye area because of the caffeine and the gel texture being cooling, it plays nice with makeup, it's easy to get my hands on it. All pluses, I was ready to rave about it. That is, until I read others' reviews, people are saying that this burned their eye area all of a sudden. Someone even said she started to have vision issues. That has not been my experience thus far but I'm afraid to repurchase this once I use up the two jars I got at BJs to avoid any potential complications. Hence, I likely won't get it again. It has been quite some time since I purchased my very beloved MIZON Multi Function Formula Snail Repair Eye Cream and I think I'll try to get my hands on it again when I'm done with this.
