Review: Hollybeth's Natural Luxury Eye cream

By
I am usually a sucker for eye creams especially those who claim to lighten the dark circles. This one came in the Hollybeth's Natural Luxury Travel gift set and the quantity that comes in this travel sized pack is more than enough to run for a couple of months. I've been using this eye cream since past couple of weeks and hence thought of reviewing it here today. Check out more details below:

About Hollybeth's Natural Luxury Eye Cream


Hollybeth's best seller is luxurious and rich, full of organic Vitamin E that acts as an antioxidant. This cream claims to soothe and relax the area of skin beneath your eyes.

Price: $32.00

Quantity: 15 ml

Ingredients:
Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (organic sweet almond) oil*, Camellia oleifera (Camellia) Seed Oil*, Beeswax*, Tocopherol (vitamin E), Lecithin *( lecithin)
*Organic

Directions to Use:
Use your ring finger; gently moisturize a small amount beneath your eyes starting from the outside towards the inside. Use daily. Keep in a cool dry place away from heat. May be refrigerated.

My experience with this eye cream:

The eye cream comes in a thick off-white colored cream. The first time I applied it under my eyes; I could feel the texture of the cream. It wasn't ultra smooth to glide well, but had very fine granules which weren't evenly distributed. I massaged the cream well around my eyes the way its mentioned in the directions and the cream gave an oily finish. However, the massage with this cream soothed my eyes to a great extent and I could feel the relaxation and heat. It has a lovely sweet fragrance which I like a lot. I've been using this cream every alternate night before going to sleep.

Below are some more pics:






And below are some of the likes and dislikes that I've experienced from this eye cream:

Likes:

1) I like the soothing fragrance of this cream that helps a lot in relaxing the senses.

2) The cream works well in soothing my eyes after I've spent a long tiring day in front of computer. The cream feels like a concentrated oil that starts working the moment I begin massaging it around my eyes. The experience is always very relaxing and rejuvenating.

3) Very less amount is needed to cover both the eyes so even the travel size version of this cream that comes in Hollybeth's travel gift set (worth $25) will run for long.

4) The ingredients in this product are all natural and organic hence definitely more skin friendly than chemically dominated products. Also, it is gluten free and cruelty free.

Dislikes:

1) The not-so-smooth texture of the cream. I don't know what the granules are, because the moment I start massaging the cream, everything becomes oil and gets well into the skin. However, the rough texture is something I don't like much.

2) The cream leaves an oily finish, so can only be used at night.

3) It comes in jar packaging so unhygienic and messy.

4) Availability: You might not be able to find it in every store around the world, but you can order it from Hollybeth's Natural luxury official website here .

Overall verdict:

I like the cream overall for its soothing fragrance and for the way it relaxes my eyes. However, I'd have liked it more if it'd come with more fine and buttery smooth texture instead of rough one. Since the skin around the eyes is more sensitive, even very fine granules can disturb the overall application process of the cream. I like my eye creams to be smoother.

Rating: 3/5

Olay Natural White Lotion With Mulberry Leaf Extracts - Review

By
Olay Natural White Lotion With Mulberry Leaf Extracts  The best way to spend four hours of waiting period in Dubai transit is to do shopping. In all the shopping I did there, I bought this particular lotion as well. The main reasons behind buying this lotion were: 1) I wanted to try Olay as a brand as I’d heard a lot of good stories about it. 2) I wanted a light moisturizing face lotion that has SPF, UVA/UVB protection and could be worn easily below my foundation for day wear.

Neutrogena Moistureshine Gloss - Review, Swatches

By
Neutrogena Moistureshine Gloss - Review I began to use Neutrogena brand long back, when I was in US. The first product I bought of this brand was a liquid foundation, which was my first foundation of all. And, as expected I chose the wrong shade and had to throw it away. The second thing I bought sometime back was this Neutrogena Moistureshine LipGloss , which apparently happens to be my first tinted lipgloss too, as before this I was used to only lipsticks or lip balms.It took me a while to get used to the concept of glosses.

Syoss Professional Performance Repair Therapy Shampoo During my visits to Germany, I spend a lot of time watching TV commercials, because of the only reason that I can somehow understand bits and pieces of them.
