Review: Etude House Vanilla Moist Eye's Cream ~
I am a huge believer in eye cream and it's probably one of the skin care items that I have to use (as well as the standard cleanse, tone and moisturize routine) as I suffer with quite dry under eye area and plus because I wear quite a lot of eye make-up, when I remove it with eye make-up remover I tend to tug and pull at my eyes quite a lot so it is essential I take care of them.

Eye cream stick with a moisturizing, brightening and anti-wrinkle formula to promote youthful skin around the eyes.

The packaging I must say is CUTEEE! look at the box it comes with :3 ~


 
English & Korean descriptions & ingredients list ~ thumbs up for Etude House ~
for those who understand Chinese...



Unlike other eye creams which I have tried that usually comes in a pot or a tube this one is a swivel stick so it's much more hygenic I find? but then again you will still need to use your fingers to pat it in ~

rather than a 'cream' it's much lighter, it's definitely more of a gel formula...

But the gel formula is still quite hydrating for younger skin or for people who don't suffer with wrinkles, fine lines or dry skin around the eyes ~


Bare Hands ~ kekekekeke
Just applied the eye cream several times ~ 

Patted it into the skin ~ see it leaves a slight sheen to the skin but it will soon go away after some time ~


[DIRECTIONS] Twist to dispense, apply to lower eye-lids by using stick to gently massage around the eyes. Use fingers to gently pat cream into skin.

Overall Comments:
I have no idea whether it's because I'm so used to cream type eye creams or because this formula really isn't all that hydrating, because this doesn't exactly moisturize my under eyes that well, it gives very little moisture.
Also this stick comes with 6.5g of product which is a lot less than the 30ml pots I suppose? but I found this eye cream went down really quickly, you can see I have almost used up the whole thing like 3/4 of the product, bare in mind this is all within less than 2 months of use. I think one of the main reasons why it's going down so much is because I find myself having to use a lot of this to get the hydration I want but even then it's not exactly the most hydrating eye cream I have used.
They label this as being 'vanilla' so I was expecting it to be a vanilla type scent but it's got a very weird under tone to it, I can still smell the hint of vanilla but then there's this orange/citrus spice that is trying to overpower it and I ABSOLUTELY HATE this scent >.< ~
This eye cream is CHEAP and of course you do get what you pay for, and for those who don't have dry skin underneath the eyes you might like this one because it's lightweight and provides little amount of moisture and plus it's a gel type so you won't be getting milia around the eyes as some of you might worry with a heavier eye cream.
On another note, I do find this eye cream to be good to refresh eye makeup on the lower eyelid throughout the day, just swirl it around your middle or ring finger and dap it underneath the eyes and this should freshen up and moisturize any concealer, eyeshadows and etc from creasing and seeping into any lines or cracking.

Would I Repurchase: NO!


Take Care ~ ♥
