If you’re 40+ and you want to start introducing retinoids into your eye contour skincare but you’re scared about getting irritation because you have sensitive skin, this affordable and easily available @loreal eye cream is the right choice!
THE PROS - It has a very simple but effective formulation based on three active ingredients: a Vitamin C derivative to boost skin radiance and lighten dark circles, Hyaluronic Acid that intensely hydrates and replumps the skin and Pro-Retinol, a gentler alternative for those who may find traditional Retinol too harsh, with anti-aging and skin regenerating properties. It’s much milder and more stable than Retinol, but it’s also less potent, and therefore it takes longer to show results.
THE CONS - I don’t like the metal ball applicator because it’s so hard it hurts and it doesn't help at all to apply the product evenly; 15 ml of product is very little, considering that all Korean eye creams are at least 30 ml; people with drier under-eyes might find it not creamy or moisturizing enough.
