My experience with this eye cream:

I started using this eye cream around a month back and have been using it daily for both morning and night time. It is a very light cream with medium consistency that gets absorbed into the skin pretty soon. It has very mild floral fragrance, which doesn't last for too long. I usually take a little amount on my finger and gently massage it around my eyes, focusing more on the dark circles.
I noticed a great reduction in the puffiness around my eyes from the day one of the usage. It definitely works amazingly in bringing my eyes back from swollen bulbs to normal state. Over the period of usage, I've also noticed a good amount of reduction in my dark circles. I really like this cream for being so lightweight, that I don't even realize its presence around my eyes every time I apply it. It does moisturize the tender skin around my eyes and makes it quite soft. However, I don't have any fine lines as of now so can't comment on its effect there.

So, on that note, let us have a look at the likes and dislikes of this cream:

Likes:
1) Extremely lightweight cream that gets absorbed into the skin in a jiffy.
2) Comes with mild floral fragrances which is quite soothing and doesn't stay long.
3) A very little amount is needed for both the eyes so one jar would definitely run for a long time. I've been using this cream daily twice (both morning and evening) and still more than half is left.
4) It works wonderfully in reducing the puffiness around the eyes.
5) Over regular usage I've definitely felt a considerable reduction in my dark circles.
6) It has made the skin around my eyes quite moisturized and soft.

Dislikes:

1) Company tests on animals.
2) Contains parabens. I donno why it is not mentioned in the Sephora's website, when I could see Parabens as one of the ingredients of this cream on the cover of the kit I bought.

Rating: 4/5

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. I bought the shade 04 Glimmer: Neutrogena Moistureshine Gloss Like usual glosses, it comes
