Hello readers! I apologize for the long over-due post, I've been so busy with thesis-writing and assignments since the Chinese New Year holidays. It's just sank in that there's only 2 months left before the deadline for my thesis...2 months = 8 weeks = no longer just a double digit countdown = panic mode.
I think it's been so bad that I could be considered as a new addition to the Panda exhibition at the River Safari.
Hello Jia Jia and Kai Kai, meet Apple. >< |
Being such an Innisfree fan, I decided to check out the store for a miracle eye-brightening cream.
After imploring my problems of dark eye circles to the pleasant sales-lady, she recommended this to me!

SUMMARY OF REVIEW:
My thoughts:
I must admit, I was initially a little apprehensive when I bought the eye serum, mainly because the eye creams I've used thus far (hahahs, okay I've only had two), hadn't reduced the pigmentation around my eyes. But I still got the product mainly because the sales-lady had informed me that this product's only purpose is to reduce dark eye circles. And I thought, most of the eye products we see out there claim to do two things at once, either anti-wrinkle and anti-darkening, or anti-darkening and anti-puffiness, etc, you get my drift right? So I thought, "well, since this product only carries one sole purpose, it should work, right?"
I have been using this product for about 2 to 3 weeks now, and it's AMAZING. The dark pigmentation under my eyes have reduced rather significantly, especially the area near the outer corners of my eyes!(sadly it's also where the pigmentation was the darkest)

The only qualm I have is the pump - don't go trigger happy on it, a little goes a longggggg way |

Sorry Jia Jia & Kai Kai, Apple's not coming anymore |
Would I buy it again:
YES! And I'd definitely recommend it to others who are seeking for an affordable eye serum too! Of course, do bear in mind that this has been purely effective for reducing dark eye pigmentation only, and you'll probably need another eye cream if you want to reduce eye bags too.

Price: $34 (30ml) at local Innisfree stores, 20000 won in South Korea,

Hye apple, i have a really bad dark circle, and i'm searching for eye serum review and this really help. Thanks a lot yeah
ReplyDeletehello Juehyun! I'm glad this helps! :)
DeleteI know I'm a little late to the party on this one, but would you say that this serum is light enough to use in conjunction with a more hydrating eye cream?
ReplyDeleteHello! The serum is easily and quickly absorbed into the skin, so I don't see why it shouldn't be used together with a cream. :)
