Hi lovelies, how are you all? I can't believe it's July already and my birthday is next month! Are you enjoying the monsoon?
Today I am here to review a product that I have been using for almost 2 months now. It is the The Body Shop's Moisture White Shiso Brightening Eye Cream (a mouthful!). Though I started using this almost four months ago, after using it for 15 days I had to stop using it while my skin was going through a major irritation and rashes. Later, I find out that it was because of a moisturizer that I was using then. After over a period of one month, I started using it again. I have been loving this product since then. Now, let's know more about this product-

Packaging: The Body Shop Moisture White Brightening Eye Cream comes in a sleek white plastic tube packaging with a metal dispenser-cum-applicator and a semi-transparent plastic screw cap.
Product: The product is white in colour, thick but lightweight and creamy in texture. It has a hint of sheen to it.
My Thoughts: The Body Shop Moisture White Shiso 2-in-1 Brightening Eye Cream is a very creamy and lightweight product that works really well to brighten up your under-eye area. I have oily skin and the most affected areas are my T-zone and under-eyes. Although the cream is very creamy, it does not makes my under-eyes greasy. The consistency of this product is neither runny nor very thick. It is just sufficient to spread evenly. It has a dash of shimmer to it that adds a sheen to the under-eye area in order to brighten it up. I like to apply it by taking one dot on my ring finger and warm it a bit with the ring finger of the opposite hand and then finally dab it on the areas where I need it. In this way, the product does not get wasted and a very less amount of product is used. I use the metal nozzle to blend the product into the skin rather than applying directly with it. The metal nozzle surely helps to soothe the eye area. I have not seen any dramatic reduction of my dark-circles but the areas are brighter now.
Ups:
- Moisturizes the under-eye areas very well.
- Creamy yet not greasy.
- Brightens up the eyes, giving them a healthy glow.
- Non-allergic.
- A little goes a long way.
- Metal nozzle helps in soothing the under-eye skin.
Downs:
- The product gets gathers in the outlet, creating a mess.
- The packaging makes it impossible to keep track of the usage.
Overall, I love this product. It is now a must-have in my kitty. My skincare is almost incomplete without this. Every time I use it, it makes my eye area much more alive. I think you must give it a try once. I bet you would love it. I would love to know your thoughts on this product. I'll be back with a new post very soon. Till then be safe & keep smiling!
