I was thrilled when L'Occitane's Precious Eye Balm landed on my doorstep. It comes in a glass blue jar with a silver lid - looking very luxurious on the bathroom shelf! Inside is 15ml of the balm - which contains immortelle essential oil and cell extracts which apparently work together to help smooth wrinkes and give you firmer, younger looking skin. A mighty big claim if you ask me!
The instructions on the jar say to use every morning and or evening... I have been using it every morning and evening since I have had it, by smoothing it on under the eye area. There was about 6 weeks worth of product in there doing it that way - so you could easily make it last for a few months if you used it once a day.
The balm itself feels like a very light moisturiser but definitely has a balmy feel to it. It sinks into the eye area quickly - you don't have to leave a big gap between application and putting on your make up which is always a bonus.
While I was using it, I have to say I didn't really notice much of a difference - but as I used my last bit of it last night, I took a photo this morning then dug one out from September... using the eye balm for around 6 weeks. Here are the before and afters...
I was amazed at the difference! I can assure you these photos have not been altered in any way. There is such a visible difference that I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking for a wrinkle reducing product. I am now really interested in seeing what the rest of the Immortelle range does - perhaps I could look 18 again?!
Have you tried any of the range and can give me any recommendations?
Seeing as we're on the subject of L'Occitane... I found this video and thought you guys might be interested. I'd always wondered (and always got it wrong!)
Admit it, who else has been getting it wrong!?
Wow that's good! I'm a huge fan of L'Occitane products (I always pronounce it wrong too!) and will have a lookout for this x
