Description from the package: Every day the delicate eye area is exposed. Eyes can appear visibly fatigued and lose their youthful radiance due to factors such as lack of sleep, external aggressions and signs of aging. Our highly concentrated eye cream combines a Bifidus and Yeast Prebiotics Complex in a fast-absorbing silky gel-cream. It helps accelerate skin surface barrier recovery. Eye contour feels revitalized. With day and night use, this potent eye cream acts on the visible signs of youthful radiant eyes: hydration, smoothness, luminosity, dark circles and fine lines. Eyes look rested and recover a more youthful luminous look.

Thoughts: I've always wanted to try this eye cream and given it was on sale, I took advantage. I did not know I took advantage twice.
Here's a closer look at the packaging.Here's a closer look at the opening.Here's a swatch of the product on my hand.Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there's no noticeable scent while using. I might have gotten used to the smell or it's not close to my nose. I just sniffed the product and there's a slight scent. It's very floral and I actually like the smell. It's on the sweet side. Secondly, the packaging is nice. It looks so professional. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of glass. The top is also sturdy. I can feel a tight seal when I open and close the top. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's easy to throw in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. It's also easy to hold with one hand. Third, the consistency is creamy and on the medium. It's not too thick that it's hard to work with. It's also not too thin that it runs while using. It's a good consistency and you can take your time with massaging it into your skin. With that said, it's easy to use. After cleansing and serum, the eye cream is the next step in the skincare routine. I used it both mornings and nights, and am still using it. I would dab my right ring finger into the pot and grab some product. I would dab all over the lids, undereye, smile line, my eleven, and the forehead where I notice fine and deep wrinkles. I would pat with my ringer finger until it gets absorbed into the skin. It absorbs quickly because I have dry skin. It might be too thick for normal to oily skin individuals. It's not light-weight. I can definitely feel the texture. It's not greasy, not sticky, and it's extremely hydrating. I feel like I am putting a nice, calming moisturizer on my eyes. My skin feels soft, hydrated, and alert. With hydration and constant usage, the fine and deep lines would improve. Lastly, the next morning my skin around the eyes look good but it's one of those products you need to be consistent for improvement. I am glad I got this product. I have noticed slight improvements around the eyes. Cannot wait to see what happens after using both purchase!
