Hello everyone :) so weekend is almost here.. which means its time to relax yourself and take a break from all those busy routine.. well i have a movie plan with my family this weekend :) so lets get into todays topic without any delay. Today am gonna talk about a under eye cream from OXY GLOW which is called ''ALMOND UNDER EYE REPAIR CREAM''. I had my exams last month and i had to study late nights. and after my exams i started watching movies late night which resulted in dark circle.. it was too obvious and i had to do something about it..I bought this under eye cream a while ago and have been using this on and off, but not regularly.. but recently i thought i should use it regularly and see whether it works.. So i started using this cream regularly and its been three to four weeks now.. i thought its time for me to share my view on this product.. so here it is :)
PRICE : INR 198 for 12gm
SHELF LIFE : 30 MONTHS
WHAT DOES THE PRODUCT SAYS ??
Bring out your inner youth with this impressive under eye cream. natural aoils and extracts combines together to restore radiance and reduce the appearance of fine lines. its revitalising effects, also deflates puffiness and reduces dark circles.
INGREDIENTS : aqua, almond oil, GMS, glycerin, vitamin e, carrot oil, aloe vera extract, nutmeg oil, lemon extract.
DIRECTION FOR USE : Cleanse the area around eyes. using ring finger, apply the cream and massage gently from inner corner towards the outer part of the eye. for infinite harmony, apply twice a day, preferably after bath ( in morning ) and before going to bed ( in night )
MY TAKE ON THE PRODUCT :
First of all the packaging in my opinion looks sophisticated.. to me it looks like some highend cream.. it comes in a little glass jar with a white plastic cap with the name written on it. it is quite sturdy.. it smells like mixture of almond oil and some milk cream.. it is not too over powering..
It has a very thick creamy texture.. it doesnt not get absorbed into the skin.. even if i apply the tineast amount it does not get absorbed and it feels greasy. it feels heavy on my under eye area. i used to leave it over night..it feels greasy even when i wake up in the morning.. it is not suitable for day time it will definitely melt away whatever makeup that i am wearing on top of it :-(....i have'nt noticed any improvement with my dark circles.. i do have fine lines under my eyes, this cream doesnt do anything on the fine lines as well. :-(
PROS
1. packaging looks so sophisticated
2. ingredient list is too attractive.
3. though it feels greasy, it moisturizes the under eye area..
CONS
1. it feels very heavy
2. doesnt get absorbed
3. it does not reduce dark circle.
4. it doesnt do anything about the fine lines.
5. it melts away the eye makeup so its not a day time eye cream.
MY FINAL VERDICT :
I absolutely hate this product except for the packaging.. ingredient list is quite attractive but there is no improvement with my dark circle or with my fine lines.. it doesnt do what it claims..
MY RATING
1/5 ( 1 mark for the packaging and attractive ingredient list )
THANK YOU :-)
Even, I am using it for 3 months. No use! Just moisturises around eyes..that's all....waste of time , money and effort!
