Pond's Age Miracle Dual Eye Therapy UV

With all the hype going on about Pond's Age Miracle line, I thought of trying out this eye cream. The jar is divided into two. 1.) The Pink Cream (upper eye collagen cream) - helps reduce the appearance of lines, wrinkles and crow's feet; 2.) The White Cream (under eye brightening cream) - helps reduce the appearance of puffiness and dark circles.

I've been using this for months now. Like 4 months, I think.. I know it's in the box direction that the pink cream is for the upper eye and the white cream is for the under eye. But I have fine lines under my eyes so there are times when I put the pink cream under my eye, too.. I love how the cream goes on so smoothly. I use this in the morning, because there's no sticky feeling at all. It actually feels powdery smooth after you have applied it.

I have no problem with this cream, it didn't give me any bump. BUT I didn't see any improvement either. It didn't really do anything for my fine lines or my dark circles. But I think it's good enough as a daytime eye cream because it's non-sticky and it also provides UV protection. Better than nothing. =)

UPDATE: Shiseido Benefiance Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream

Ever since I noticed the web-like fine lines underneath my eyes, I've been so obsessed looking for the perfect eye cream. Before I had started using this product, I've been using other eye creams from The Face Shop and Pond's (which I'm going to make a review sometime soon). But I guess they don't seem to be working well enough for me.

So anyway, I had been using Shiseido Benefiance Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream for more than a month now. The cream is rich. I think it's too thick and it leaves a shiny film around my eyes. I'm not really so much of a "sticky product" fan, but for night time it's fine. So yeah, I use this at night and I use a different eye cream in the morning.

The first night I used it, I noticed in the morning that it diminished the look of fine lines underneath my eyes. I was so surprised and I actually couldn't believe it myself but I was so happy! =) The 2nd night I applied this, I noticed the next day that I had a red bump underneath my left eye. I panicked. The red bump didn't last that long, it immediately disappeared the next day.. So I still gave the eye cream another chance. I thought maybe I should put on just a little lesser so my eye area won't be over-moisturized. So that's what I did. And I didn't get the red bump again. Although, there are times when I end up putting a little more, I occasionally get a tiny bump under or above my eye. But they don't last long at all, the next day they're gone... But then again I noticed that my fine lines would reappear. I don't know why. Some days they're gone, some days they're back... As for my dark eye circles, I don't really think it did anything for that part. And I am not really sure if any eye cream would help get rid of it, I have asthma and my dermatologist told me that asthma and other allergies could cause dark circles. So yeah..

The product is quite pricey. It's around PHP 2,700+ (USD $ 57.00). I am not sure if I am going to repurchase. I would probably try other products first and keep looking for my perfect eye cream.

Any eye cream you have loved/hated?

UPDATE: Shiseido Benefiance Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream

Okay so I have applied the eye cream again last night. When I woke up this morning, I noticed I have this small red bump under my eye! :-s Okay I am not yet concluding that this came from the eye cream, I'm not really sure if it's a pimple or just an insect bite. *sigh*

I will still keep using the eye cream and see what happens, I hope not to get any bumps anymore. I hope that's just an insect bite.. *fingers crossed* I really want this cream to work. It seems to be working but if it's gonna cause me acne, I might just stop using it and give it to my mom.

Shiseido Benefiance Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream

So I have been obsessed about finding the right eye cream for me. Just a few days ago, I checked on the mirror and noticed some fine lines under my eyes! I freaked. I've been using eye creams but maybe they're not good enough. *sigh* So yeah, I worried and tried researching for a good eye cream.

I came across Shiseido Benefiance Revitalizing eye cream, but when I searched for it on their website, it wasn't there. I figured that they had already discontinued it and re-produced it with a new formulation called Shiseido Benefiance Concentrated Anti-Wrinkle eye cream. I read good reviews about it. Some claimed it visibly reduced fine lines. Although some would say it's better for mature skin with deep wrinkles. I'm on my early 20's but I still thought I'd give it a try.. So yeah, I got the eye cream yesterday for PHP 2798+ (USD $59). It's pricey, I know. But for the sake of my eyes. It's better than be sorry later.

What I think about it? The cream is actually quite sticky so I use it at night only. I think it moisturizes really well... And the effect? I know it's too early to judge, I've been using it for 2 nights only. But it's really weird. I first used this cream last night, and this morning I noticed that some of the web-like lines underneath my eyes have been reduced. Okay please don't laugh at me. I actually do not want to believe it myself. Because I know I have just used it once! Maybe I was just hallucinating or something, but I kept checking all day and I really noticed the lines were reduced... But around late afternoon, I noticed the web-like lines were back. I don't know, maybe the cream has the effect of masking the lines for a while? Or maybe I really was just hallucinating.. Too early to judge! I know, I know.. I will just post an update about this cream in a month or so..
