Review on The Body Shop Vitamin C Eye Reviver

Containing Vitamin C as a brightening radiance boost to the eye area, it also helps to neutralise free radicals.
Its white gel-cream form is light and non-greasy, suitable for everyday use.

Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant that fights off free radicals that damage the skin, aids the skin in producing collagen to help prevent wrinkles and reduces melanin formation.

Ingredients :
Vitamin C - powerful antioxidant that helps protect the skin against damaging environmental elements, such as the sun, pollution and cigarette smoke. Helps neutralise free radicals, which are destructive molecules that attack cells and harm the skin.
Orange flower water - Gently refreshes and hydrates the skin. Is known to be beneficial for dry and more mature skin.

So how does this product fares?

Well, it does nothing to my eye area. There is no brightening effect and it does nothing to help to reduce my dark circles.

In general, how well a skincare product with Vitamin C fares, depends on its formulation, as in some products, the formulation may not be enough to make an impact.

At $32.90 for 15ml, you can forget about it.
