Too early yet to see a difference in my skin, and in general I’m not a big believer in eye creams, but the ingredients in this one speak for themselves. Difficult to find a retinal (retinaldehyde) product in South Africa. This is the only one I know of specially formulated for the eye area. Better than retinol as it converts more easily to retinoic acid and is the next best thing to over-the-counter tretinoin. With the added ginseng, niacinamide, peptides and ceramides, I’m really impressed, especially for the price. Has a slightly odd fragrance (maybe the macadamia oil?) and goes on looking slightly yellowy but dissolves into the skin quickly and doesn’t leave a residue. I love that you get a decent amount of product too, unlike most teeny-weeny eye creams! So impressed with the ingredients that I ordered a second one so that I can use it on other areas (neck, around mouth, etc). Will only be using it a night though, because of the retinal.

I love this formulation and it is one of the only gentle Retinal products that my sensitive skin can tolerate. I use it on my entire face!

I am not a big believer in eye creams but this products packs quite punch especially when you see all the ingredients and that the star ingredient Retinal which is usually only found in very VERY expensive creams is available in this product and you won’t have to break the bank to buy it either. I only been using it for 3 weeks now but already I can see a difference especially since I use it as a serum for my whole face. Tube is much bigger then most eye creams and is worthy of the hype. Highly recommend A+++++

I’ve been enjoying this eye cream, it has been great having a retinal prodcut that is easy to use under the eye. Great value for money and it is lasting me quite long. Can’t say I’ve seen a reduction in fine lines under my eye yet, but I’m hopeful as I know retinal is really effective and I haven’t been using it every night which I am doing now. I have also been using it on my forehead and those wrinkles have reduced. All in all great product.

I would highly recommend this product to anyone new to retinoids, dry or sensitive skin. I received my product just before winter and it didn’t dry out my skin or cause any irritation or purging. Very nice lightweight gel texture and quite hydrating. Very impressed
