Most of us may be wondering if under eye creams is worth the splurge. Do we really need to incorporate it into your daily skincare routine? Most of us prefer and opt to use concealers and attempt to camouflage those dark circles under our eyes.

Though using concealers is a way better option, like any problem we need to get to the root cause of our dark circles, yes it could be a lack of certain vitamins or low blood count (All these issues need to be checked and consulted by a medical professional). But for some it’s just being tired and lack of sleep. Usually working late nights can cause our under-eye dark circles, wrinkles & puffiness.

I know for me it does, as a blogger and digital magazine editor, deadlines, and bulk content creations can have me work and stay late. for cases like this an under eye cream is a mandatory addition to my skincare regimen.

My new addition to my skincare regimen is the Olay Ultimate Eye Cream, I previously reviewed how obsessed I was with the Olay Luminous Whip, which was an amazing product! Just like most of Olay products this eye cream does wonders on my skin!

The Product Claims:

This fights dark circles, wrinkles and puffy eyes in an instant with Olay Eyes Ultimate Eye Perfecting Cream. This 3-in-1 Decircler, DeWrinkler & DePuffer instantly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Supercharged with peptides and vitamins, it renews the skin’s surface over time and reduces puffiness by massaging onto skin.

Formulated with Olay’s color-correcting technology, it acts as a touch of concealer that matches all skin tones. The powerful formula hydrates to smooth and brighten the eye area. Give your eyes a boost of beauty and moisture with Ultimate Eye Cream for wrinkles, puffy eyes, and dark circles.
Key Ingredients:

VITAMIN B3 (NIACINAMIDE)
This ingredient is known to help skin retain moisture keeping it seriously hydrated. Vitamin B3 can also hydrate to help with surface skin cell turnover and regeneration, as well as exfoliation to remove dull skin. Long story short – it’s our unicorn.

AMINO PEPTIDE
Amino Peptides are chains of amino acids and the building blocks of skin cells. These “boss babe” molecules are known to help skin look smoother and firmer.

PIGMENTS
Iron oxides are used to make pigmented skincare products as they don’t easily bleed or smear and have “staying power” so you don’t have to keep reapplying. Iron oxides are ideal for skin-toned pigments and act as a “touch of concealer”.

My Verdict:

Where do you get an eye cream which acts as a concealer on your skin?? Olay has understood what women want, an eye cream + a concealer! This is a winner!
The 3 in 1 benefits to reduce the look of dark circles, wrinkles, and puffiness definitely worked!

I had to attend a virtual conference meeting and was dreading to wear all my makeup to look presentable especially with my eyebags and dark circles due to lack of sleep the night before, so right after skincare, this eye cream did wonders to me by transforming to a subtle concealer and with the added benefits of peptides & vitamins! Plus reduced puffiness, looked fresh and awake for the meeting! This is an award-worthy eye cream and most definitely the ULTIMATE eye cream!
