Clarins Eye Contour Balm Review | Glam Radar

Hello beauties here is my Clarins Eye Contour Balm Review!
I would like to update my skincare regime as I found some new products that you will surely love like I do. But first let me start with an eye cream review. As I’ve mentioned before I am using the Clinique All About Eyes- cream but suddenly I had a change of heart. I decided to check what other brands can offer. Lucky enough I was able to drop by my local shop and get a free sample of Clarins Eye Contour Balm. For me, it is always a must to get and try the sample sizes before splurging thousands in one product to avoid waste of time and money. I used it religiously, day and night, and it takes only a small amount to do the job. So the 3ml sample size took me 2 weeks to finish (still got some few drops remaining) . I have been convinced with its formulation for the effects it brought to my eyes. It doesn’t work overnight but you’ll surely feel and see a difference. So here I availed the full size at Duty Free Fiesta mall for $41 for 20ML / PHP 1700 pesos at local shopping malls like Rustan’s and Essences. Not cheap but not too expensive for an effective eye cream that would definitely last you longer. just a pea size amount to do the job swiped and unblended- for reference. Pros
- It softens and moisturizes well the skin.
- It has a nice light texture that dries and soaks into the skin without being too greasy or creamy.
- Deeply hydrating without that heavy feeling
- It applies, spreads and blends well without tugging the skin.
- It leaves the under eye area fresh, smooth and matte.
- It works well under make-up without leaving any streaks or “blotchy-ness”
- It doesn’t sting and has no burning sensation at all- Suitable for sensitive eyes or for people who wears contacts.
- Suitable for all skin types. No allergic reaction
- It softens or somehow blurs the appearance of fine lines.
- It contains natural ingredients. No fillers, brighteners and fragrance
- It has a nice efficient squeeze tube that dispenses the right amount of product to use.
Cons
- Too Light- for some with overly dry skin and for those who needs or likes the heavy feel of super rich emollient eye moisturizer.
- No fancy packaging
- It has no Foil seal on the mouth of the tube opening.
Overall
It’s worth the price. Clarins eye balm is quite rich you will only need a tiny drop of product- a little goes a long way. So, don’t be disappointed when you see how small it is for the price. I love how it simply provides better performance and value than any other cream that I’ve tried. Go to any Clarins counter, get a sample and try it for yourself =)
