I am always in search for the perfect eye cream and recently I got a sample of which I was quite satisfied… the Lancôme Visionnaire Yeux  Eye on Correction. I usually buy my beauty products in the drugstore, but for this eye cream I wanted to make an exception… so off to the perfumery it was!

The promises

This advanced multi-correcting eye balm, is said to ‘future proof’ your look…

This eye balm has a triple-correcting effect on the appearance of the wrinkles, dark circles and under eyes bags. The cooling formulla should improve the appearance of imperfections around the eyes. Its lightweight texture should blend in seamlessly into the skin, targeting fine lines, evening skin tone and reducing the appearance of bags and dark circles…

Now wouldn’t YOU buy an eye cream that promises all that?! They got me sold anyway 😉

How to use

With the handy pump system, it’s easy to dose the perfect amount of product. I use this eye balm in the mornings as it evens out the skin underneath my eyes, which makes it perfect to put on my make-up. In the evening I am currently using another eye cream of which I will do a review in a couple of weeks time!

Pros

• blurring effect
• leaves my skin very smooth, so a perfect base to apply my foundation
• gives a hydrating feel throughout the day
• hygienic packaging
• pumping system which makes it easy to dose

Cons

• The price perhaps? It’s about 50 EUR for a bottle of 15 ml, so about 3 times the price I normally pay for an eyecream…

Conclusion

This is a very fine product to use, but I haven’t made up my mind yet if I would buy it again. I have been using it for 2 months now and I am still not completely convinced that it is worth paying 3 times more than the drugstore eye creams I have been using… I will make up my mind when I’ve emptied the bottle…

Love, Kathleen
