Boots Essential Cucumber Eye Gel

I had tried various things for under my eyes to remove puffiness and brighten my eyes up, so when I saw this in Boots and for £1.50 it was quite inexpensive.

Now I will admit I am the laziest person on the planet, especially when it comes to my skincare routine, I don't want too many steps otherwise just won't get into the habit of using it.

I'm not the biggest fan of this, I've been using it for quite awhile and I haven't really noticed any difference to be honest my eyes are still as puffy even though the gel is quite cooling when applied to the under eye area and I haven't really noticed them being any brighter. My under eye area must need an industrial strength gel to remove my bags.

For £1.50 it's a  thing of nothing ventured, nothing gained and for £1.50 it hasn't broken the bank. I won't repurchase again but I wil have a look at alternative products and see how the handle.

Thanks for tuning in

Bourjois 123 Perfect CC Eye Cream

I have heard good reviews about this eye cream, this was one of the new launches from Bourjois at the beginning of this year the 123 range. I have to admit I am slightly won over by the applicator (rubber so no chance of any product sticking around and containing any nasty bacteria).

To get to the actual cream you have to twist the bottom of the pen and just apply under the eye (I apply it under the eye then blend in with my fingers), I think you could blend it in with the applicator but it is just easier with fingers.

The formula contains an SPF15 and allows for 24HR hydration around the eye area. I have noticed that it stays under the eye for a while and I've only had to re-apply once during the day, it does brighten up the eye area and the product blends into the skin really easily.

This is a good product and one I will definitely keep using.

This retails for £7.99 in Boots and Superdrug.

Thanks for tuning in
