Many of you probably like me struggle
with dark circles under eyes. I would even categorize myself into the group of
: 'severe' dark purple under eye area. It seems that nothing that I do really
helps in the long run. Only temporary reliefs by using some cool /hot mask and
eye gel patches. The Clinique All About Eyes is an eye cream that's really
popular and is Clinique's bestselling product. I am always desperately
searching for an eye cream to help me with this purple circles (you can even
see visible veins OMG) and dry skin in this area. Not many under eye creams
seem to work on me, it’s so difficult to find a good one, so I couldn’t wait to
start using the Clinique All About Eyes.
Clinique claims; Clinique
All About Eyes; Ophthalmologist Tested.
Moisture-rich formula diminishes the look of under eye circles, shadows, puffs
and fine lines-immediately and over time. Helps boost natural collagen
production. De-puffs with calming botanicals and even strengthens skin's
moisture barrier against common irritants.
I have the sample size jar (5mL), but even this small tube can last you very long. I have been
using it now for about 2 months and now and there is still a lot of product
left. It's to bad the product come's in a jar instead of a tube, it would be
much more hygiene, better preserving ingredients and easier to use in a tube.
The texture seems very light-weight with
a light peachy creamy gel. It spreads easily onto the skin and absorbs fast in
a couple of minutes. I have a dry eye area and this cream moisturizers very
well. The peachy color of the cream can neutralize dark circles , but for this
you would need to apply a lot of product I guess.
I have been using it for 2 months now, I
can say, it’s doing a great job moisturizing the area but not so much for dark
circles. The eye area feels soft and supple after application but could be to
moisturizing for oily types. In this case I would advise using a very small
amount of product. It also seems as if my under eye skin got a little bit
thicker!
My eyes are normally over sensitive, it
doesn't matter what I use I can get itchy red eyes ( so like expected, sometimes,
my eyes got irritated using this cream but not as much as with other eye
products. I'm actually happy about that, if I’m careful during application
there is no irritation. One of the most important expectations I have from an
eye cream is to help me with my dark circles , unfortunately, this cream
doesn't do that for me.
This cream seems more suited for you if
you have no dark circles or just light circles. I would repurchase it again if I
didn't duffer so much from dark circles.
Pros:
-Gel like texture and light-weight
-Absorbs quickly
-Moisturizing
-Makes the eye area appear thicker
-Suitable for all skin types (more for dry)
Cons:
-Not really effective on dark circles
-Not cheap, 30 euro for 15ml/0.5oz
