Handy Eye Treatment Pen
~AG~
Bought this Crème Simon Multi-Benefits Eye Treatment Pen last year. Finally, tried it recently. This twist eye-roller pen is designed to perk up tired eyes. The cool metal ball claims to smooth fine lines and boost blood circulation. This best-selling Eye Treatment Pen claims to reduce puffiness and dark circles. The twist packaging allows you to control the amount you need and keeps the applicator more hygienic. This eye gel has a lightweight texture that claims to prevent "eye seeds" formation (milia). As with Crème Simon products, this Eye Treatment Pen does not contain parabens, oil, alcohol and silicone. It also contains many botanical active ingredients to brighten the eyes area.
Crème Simon Multi-Benefits Eye Treatment Pen contains 2.5ml (0.08 fl oz) of product and costs S$25. It is pricey for a small eye gel pen. The good things about this product are that the eye gel is lightweight and the metal roller ball is cooling. The bad thing about Creme Simon Eye Treatment Pen is that they are stingy with the amount of eye gel. My Eye Treatment Pen lasted for less than a month, and I did not use it everyday! I was so surprised that the eye gel ran out so quickly, I kept twisting the pen in hopes that there will be more product. This eye gel does not go well with my under eye concealer. I noticed that my usual concealer will clump up together when I used this eye gel. A big No-No! This Eye Treatment Pen did not have enough product for me to judge whether it helps with my dark circles. For the puffiness, I feel that this eye gel did not do much for it.
I would not recommend this Crème Simon Multi-Benefits Eye Treatment Pen. The amount of eye gel in each packaging is too little for the price. Moreover, this Eye Gel did not mix well with my must-have under eye concealer. *thumbs down*

A peel concentrate for the under eye area that offers a natural, gentle antidote to dark circles and fine lines.
Created by Ole Henriksen (skin guru to the stars) to address the specific needs of the eye region—specifically signs of fatigue and age—this exfoliating formula will revolutionize skincare for the under eye region. Because the tissue around the eye is so fragile, it is often recommended NOT to exfoliate that area. This groundbreaking blend represents a new realm of possibility for more youthful skin around the eyes.

The sales lady at Sephora recommended me this product that she claims can get rid of milia. I have been having persistent milia under my eyelids. She said it is due to the clogged pores & oil gland that is congested. She said this product works for her because it somehow "exfoliate" the area. This product is designed specifically for the under eye area. It retails for US$42. The Ole Henriksen Vitamin C Line is rather well-known in the beauty market. So I was excited to try this product. She said it takes about a month to see the result. I am been using it nightly for two days now. I don't use it in the day time because I heard Vitamin C makes your skin more susceptible to the sun rays. The direction also mentions to use an SPF for the eye area on top of the peel concentrate for daytime use. Since I don't have a SPF eye cream, I decided to dedicate it solely for nighttime use.
I will come back in a month to report on the results, and of any adverse reactions. Wish me luck!
Please stay tuned :)
