Garnier Eye Roll-On with Caffeine

  • Posted on July 22, 2008 at 6:20 pm

We were a little unsure when we first opened this – would a roll-on product really be gentle enough around the eye area? Well, don’t worry – it is! In fact it’s so soothing it’s rather addictive!

Formulated to hydrate and refresh tired eyes, the roll-on certainly does that. After a couple of weeks of testing this out we have certainly found it to moisturise well (although if you’re looking for something to combat lines and wrinkles this may not be enough for you) and it definitely perks up tired eyes – we were using it through the day, not just in the morning – it works well, but if applying over make-up the rollerball does get a little grubby.

Longer term effects are reasonable, after just over two weeks use we noticed a slight reduction in dark circles.

This will last such a long time too – being a rollerball applicator there’s no product wasted.

A handy product, though you may want to combine this with a different product for night-time, especially if your main concerns are lines and wrinkles rather than tiredness and dark circles.

Molton Brown Eye Rescue Ultracool

This is a very nice gentle product made from natural ingredients. Most of us found it moisturised the eye area well, though only one person said they found it made a noticeable difference to dark circles.

On one person, who often has problems with eye treatments, the product did irritate and made her skin slightly blotchy and itchy. Best for those who have dry skin and not recommended for those who have sensitive skin around the eyes.
