Description
An effective line reducing eye treatment for brighter, younger-looking eyes. Contains a potent concentration of Pure Vitamin C 10.5%, known for its affinity with skin and powerful ability to improve the appearance of aging skin. Contains Haloxyl, which strengthens, soothes and brightens the eye area, helping to eliminate dark circles.
- Active Ingredients:
• Bitter Orange: Possesses a complex chemical makeup. Of particular value is the oil that is extracted from the petal of the bitter orange tree and is particularly effective at stimulating cutaneous tone. Bitter Orange is also known as Bigarade Orange or Neroli.
• Haloxyl™: This new, patented ingredient improves skin around the eye area by stimulating natural enzymes that help strengthen under-eye area capillaries. Studies demonstrate the effectiveness of Haloxyl™ and its ability to increase skin density to better support the microvascular network in eye area skin and alleviate inflammation.

Would you recommend this product?

Speaking about things I haven't like about this item, first of all - it is a price of a full volume product. Despite its miraculous effects, the volume/price ratio is unbalanced. Then go its absorption properties: I can't say it did not absorb, it did, but it was like a tiny layer of oily substance remained for a very long time. Perhaps, it is the properties of the serum (that the skin feels as though it was greased with oil or butter), but I have found them a bit uncomfortable. And the last off kilter thing about the concentrate has been it is odd (verging on unpleasant) smell. I felt is very subtly and only upon squeezing the serum out of the pack, but it still has succeeded to unnerve me.
I may recommend Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Eye-Brightening Concentrate but I bet that the high price might overshadow its beneficial effects.
