Already being a fan of the Ole Henriksen Banana Bright Collection, I was delighted to be able to get my hands on the newly reformulated Ole Henriksen Banana Bright + Eye Crème.
The Ole Henriksen Banana Bright + Eye Crème, is a product I have seen so many rave reviews about and with a new and upgraded fragrance-free formula, it features real gold, that is said to brighten, visibly diminish dark circles and crow’s feet and it also improves concealer application and wear. So it is a product which pretty much does it all.
What I do love is that with its peach tint, this eye cream has a non-greasy butter like texture which melts onto the skin as soon as it comes into contact without leaving any trace. As someone with an awful sleeping pattern, dark circles under my eyes are a fact of life with concealer being one of my greatest friends. From this Eye Crème, what I love is that it does have that brightening effect that I noticed on application and my concealer definitely does sit much better, again as promised, but what really does stand out is its ability to reduce, not erase altogether, those dark circles. But how?
If you are familiar with products from Ole Henriksen, you will know that they always have an impressive list of ingredients and this one is no different. Starting with the Triple Vitamin C Complex With Gold Delivery System which is described as being a powerhouse Vitamin C trio for enhanced brightening and elasticity alongside:
- Gold Complexed Vitamin C: Ascorbic acid (pure vitamin C) + super-antioxidant glutathione combine with real gold and this works to create a highly stable, water-soluble complex that improves delivery of vitamin C to surface layer of your skin
- 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid: This is a potent, water-soluble vitamin c derivative with superior stability and antioxidant capacity
- Tetrahexyldecyl (THD) Ascorbate: An extremely stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C that pairs well with other types of vitamin C
As you can see it is an impressive list of ingredients and what they do and why they have been chosen. I have only been using this Banana Bright + Eye Crème and I am really impressed by what I have noticed so far and will update this post again in a few months time as I come to the end of the pot.
