Hola Girls,
After Oriflame’s Seeing Is Believing Eye Cream got over, I started using Iraa Insta Renew Multi Action Under Eye Cream which I got in one of my September fab bag subscription. It’s been about a month now that I have been using this eye cream. Using an eye cream is a part of my skin care regimen. I don’t use the regular day creams or lotion under my eyes. Because I generally use very light lotions on my face & which might not provide the essential moisturization to my under eye area which always demands for more.
My Ideal Eye Cream
I have deep set pair of eyes and hence permanent dark hollows around my eyes are quite prominent. They never disappear. With time, my eyes seem to sunk in more into my skull which makes the dark circles more intense. I have this constant struggle to keep my under eye area brighter to pop out my small eyes. Here is what I desire in an under eye cream:
- It must be lightweight but should be able to provide right amount of moisture.
- It must absorb easily.
- It must not leave behind nay oily residue.
- It must not come off in layers in case I apply a concealer or any other makeup under my eyes.
- It must work to diminish the appearance of dark circles.
- It must work to minimize fine lines or laugh lines.
- It must improve the texture of my under eye area.
- It must be clinically tested to be used on the under eye area.
- It must not be super expensive.
- It must be easy to use & carry around.
- Better if it contains natural ingredients.
- Also it should be devoid of parabenes.
I hope you get an idea how high my hopes are when I start using a new under eye cream. So I always test an under eye cream on these parameters. Now I am going to share my views of iraa instarenew multi action under eye cream.
Eye Creams For Dark Circles : What Worked For Me And What Not
Iraa InstaRenew Multi Action Under Eye Cream
This is a fast absorbing fragrance free formula designed to soothe the delicate eye area and renew its youthful look. Containing exotic algae, grapeseed, cucumber, shea butter & vitamin E, this eye cream reduces dark circles, puffiness, fine lines and wrinkles, leaving skin hydrated and revitalized.
Algae : Increase collagen production upto 93% to improve skin texture around eyes.
Grapeseed : Moisturizes eye area without feeling heavy
Cucumber : Treats skin pigmentation
Shea Butter : Moisturises Skin
Vitamin E : Anti oxidant & moisturizer .
Price & Availability
It is priced at Rs. 490 for 20gm. It is not a budget product but is relatively cheaper than the high end branded under eye cream. Eye Creams are generally priced higher than face creams because they are specially formulated for the delicate eye area.
Iraa under eye cream is available online. Though I have not witnessed the availability offline yet.
Ingredients
Packaging
Iraa Under Eye Cream comes in a sleek tube packaging. The white opaque tube has a nozzle to dispense the product. The nozzle is covered with a shiny metallic cap which gives the overall packaging an attractive look. The labels on the tube are quite informative. You can also refer to the outer packaging of the tube which again contains the product info.
The packaging is quite attractive as well as very user friendly and easy to carry around.
Fragrance & Texture
This is a fragrance free under eye cream which is like another positive point about this eye cream. It’s texture is quite runny and water based. So it instantly gets absorbed into the skin leaving behind nothing at all. There is no greasy or shiny finish to be noticed after words.
My Experience
Till now, things are looking quite good about this eye cream as you might have noticed. Texture, fragrance, packaging, everything seems falling in place. What about the moisture part. Does it quench the thirst of of under eye area? Yes. Surprisingly, I do not feel to slather any moisturizer after using this cream under my eye area. My under eye skin feels quite hydrated.
Now after using it for about a month, what are my observations regarding the long term effects of this eye cream? I find the texture of my under eye area has improved. It’s more smooth & with lesser number of fine lines.
I do not have deep seated wrinkles or do not suffer from puffiness, so cannot comment on those concerns. But it surely has not done much about the appearance of my dark circles. They seem to be as much pigmented as they were before using this eye cream.
I can’t tel how much product is left in the tube but I would keep on using it until I finish it so that I in case I find any progress I shall notify you.
Do I Recommend Iraa InstaRenew Multi Action Under Eye Cream?
- If your main concern is to treat dark circles, then, it is not a right cream.
- If you want to treat fine lines & improve under eye area skin texture, it is a nice grab.
- I am not sure if I will be re purchasing this cream. I am in two minds right now.
Overall, Iraa InstaRenew Multi Action Under Eye Cream is a nice eye cream to maintain under eye area health and appearance. It contains the goodness of algae, cucumber & grapeseed. It is very lightweight, absorbs easily. Does not interfere with makeup applied over it. Hydrates under eye area very well without giving giving shiny finish. The price is bit on high side, but I have found that decent eye creams generally come in that range.
Please share if you have any experience with this eye cream. Have you found the one eye cream that works for all of your concerns? I would like to know that.
Much Love.
