Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel : Review

Few blessed souls have bright eyes even after spending their day and night getting the best of social media. Rest of us are highly dependent on some of the best eye creams that are available to save us from the mental trauma of dark circles and puffy eyes.  Spending countless hours in front of a computer during my IT days gifted me a lifetime subscription of dark circles. The newest launch Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel, is latest addition to my vanity. I have been testing it over 2 weeks now. I am ready to share my opinion about the gel.

Packaging

Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel comes in a transparent glass bottle with a very tiny pump fitted on it’s mouth. There is nothing much printed on the bottle about the product but the outer carton discloses every thing about the product. The bottle is very tiny and looks super cute. But.

But, it’s not as convenient to take out the product as it seems like. The pump does not work. Million times, I pressed the pump but nothing came out of it. Now I just twist open the pump and take out the product.

It kind of defeats the purpose of having a pump at your disposal. All the convenience is lost.

Fragrance & Texture

Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel has a clear gel formula which absorbs quickly into your skin. It’s non sticky, non oily and of medium consistency gel. The formula spreads easily on skin and just by tapping, it disappears into the skin.

The gel is clear when taken out of the bottle but in the bottle it gives a pinkish tone, which is beautiful.

The eye gel, has a very mild and almost unnoticeable smell. The smell has bit if sweet notes.

My Experience Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel

I have a pair of deep set eyes and there is no way I can illuminate the shadow under my eyes because the hollowness around and under my eyes is very prominent. Also, my under eye area is dry as compared to the rest of the skin on my face.

Under eye area does not have much of oil glands. Due to dryness, your eyes develop fine lines faster than rest of your face.

If I do not apply any eye cream or nice moisturizer under my eyes, I start noticing fine lines. That’s very reasonable. Recently I travelling a lot and I missed packing my favorite Juicy Chemistry Coffee And  Green Tea Eye Cream with me, as a result, when I returned from my trip, my eyes looked really aged. They had developed fine lines. Horrible sight for me.

Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel, has no doubt, the best consistency out of all the eye creams that I have ever used. It does not leave behind any sticky or visible residue like Juicy Chemistry eye cream does. I can wear Plum eye cream even in the morning, under makeup or without makeup. No one can tell.

How Plum Eye Gel Is Doing?

I love how beautifully the eye gel moisturizes my skin. Even with gel texture, it has moisturizing agents, which is absolutely commendable. It perfectly hydrates my super dry under eye area. Fine lines due to dryness were gone within 2-3 application. (Cannot comment on deep rooted fine lines induced due to ageing)

But, it has not shown any visible result in terms of brightening my under eye area. Juicy Chemistry eye cream worked like a charm and within a week (I swear). I have been using Plum eye recovery gel from more than 2 weeks now, but could not notice any difference in my dark circles.

My under eye area otherwise look pretty healthy and well rested even though if I sleep for like 5-ish hours per night. So I have devised a routine, girls. I plan to use this gel in the morning and the Juicy Chemistry eye cream at night so that I can get best of the both worlds 🙂

The Good Things About Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel

• Contains natural ingredients as Plant Polypepticides, Amino Acid, Hyaluronic Acid Licorice Extracts, Plant Stem cells, Organic Aloe Vera.
• Sinks into your skin just by light tapping
• Can be worn any time, even under makeup
• Hydrates under eye area perfectly.
• Under eye area looks healthy and well rested.

The Bad

• Does not work much in terms of brightening under eye area
• The pump does not work
• Costly as compared to other result oriented eye creams.

Rating: 3.5/5

Plum Bright Years Under Eye Recovery Gel, is more of a hydrating eye gel to me rather than a brightening one. It’s texture is very good as it sinks into skin and hydrates it well. Apart from that, I did not find any brightening effect on my eye area which is a big let down. It’s costly for an eye cream that does not work on dark circles. I do not intend to buy this gel again.

 

Wish it had been more potent as I love Plum products a lot. I am not sure how much more time, it will take to show any results in terms of brightness.
