Thanks to this lightweight contouring eye cream - packed with darkness-diminishing vitamin K, age-erasing peptides, de-puffing orange peel and skin-calming Icelandic kelp - puffiness, fine lines and dark circles don't stand a chance. What's more, a cooling effect leaves eyes feeling energized and looking bright. 
The best-selling Icelandic Relief Eye Cream formula is now available in a convenient, travel-friendly pen, providing on-the-go relief from the damaging effects of stress. 

Features :
Vitamin K increases circulation to help diminish dark under-eye circles
Anti-aging rice peptides help firm skin by destroying the enzymes that break down collagen and elastin
Orange peel helps reduce puffiness
Cotton powder fills fine lines and acts as an optical diffuser to downplay wrinkles and dark circles
Icelandic kelp helps revitalizes skin and fight inflammation

A Sephora cult-favorite eye cream in a convenient, portable pen, it provides an on-the-go antidote for the damaging effects of chronic stress. This best-selling essential helps address all three major eye care concerns: puffiness, wrinkles, and dark circles. Skin is revived by a blend of soothing nutrients while optical diffusers brighten the entire eye area.

It is free of Parabens, Sulfates, Synthetic Fragrances, Synthetic Dyes, Petro-Chemicals, Phthalates and Triclosan. It is also 100% vegetarian, cruelty free, and allergy tested. The natural solution does not contain petroleum or mineral oils.

This was my Sephora haul way back in July which I have been using consistently for the last 3 months. According to the label at the back, the eye pen is good for 3 months once opened, so I have been using it diligently every morning and most of the nights.

I first read about it in an online article and knowing that its not available in Singapore, I subsequently asked a friend to get it for me as her family was visiting the States. At US$20, it definitely affordable. I only hope it works as Vitamin K is known to work for dark circles.

This is my first and only product from Skyn Iceland. The company is all about creating skin care solutions for stressed skin. Their products are known to center on the Biospheric Complex, which is Skyn Iceland’s proprietary blend of elements found in the Water, Earth and Air, that are combined with the latest in technology for products that soothe, heal, and restore skin.
Ingredients such as Icelandic glacial water infused with minerals, Arctic cloudberries, red cranberry seed oils, and thyme extracts deliver powerful antioxidants and moisture to rejuvenate your complexion.

I have fair skin with obvious dark circles, eye bags and fine lines. My eye bags are hereditary but I am still on the never-ending quest to ban all these troubled spots out of my life. I like the way the pen is made. Just 1 or 2 clicks and the lightweight eye cream oozes out, without any messiness. It is also hygenic and portable.

The packaging as a whole, look and feel simple and minimalistic. The so-called cream is lightweight, non-greasy, soft yet squishy at the same time with a firming under layer.

There is a slight cooling sensation when applied and it feels refreshing. I am not sure if I am supposed to use the pen to apply it, but I have always used my third finger to dab the cream on my undereye area.

The cream is lightweight which I like, but sadly, it does not deliver what its supposed to do. It scored 3.4 from 82 users at Makeupalley
