The summer is over. Oh, I’ve been squinting so much this summer! You can tell it from my eyes, as I have quite long wrinkles. Crazy!
Yes, I always use some eye creams and serums, but it’s hot as hell at our place in the summertime, so I pick up very light creams.
This fall I’ve decided to try out a new product from the well-tried brand Estee Lauder.

FORTIFIES: With 360° Matrix Technology, it strengthens the delicate skin around your eyes.
HYDRATES: Intensely nourishes for a full 24 hours with a 2X concentrated infusion of Hyaluronic Acid.
Outer appearance:
The rounded tube is made of thick glass. It fits well in the hand. The shape is quite extraordinary, but the trickiest part here is inside! The cap has a thin and rounded applicator wand, which picks up the required amount of the product and slightly massages your skin at the same time.
The tip looks like a little glass bulb. It feels very nice to apply the product to my under eye area.
This is the real massage for my eyes!
Consistency:
The concentrate has a nice lightweight texture. It is white and half-transparent. The consistency distributes with ease and glides well over my skin.
The product doesn’t absorb in just a blink, although it’s very light. My skin has a damp and somewhat oily finish for a while.
The product soaks in completely in 10 minutes. The foundation applies well after that.
Smell:
The smell is peculiar. It’s strong, but not off-putting. I got used to it over time and now I even like it.
My impressions and results:
First off, the bottle and its wand is very useful. It’s the first time I’ve been using something like this. Very convenient!
I keep this product in a refrigerator. After applying I get the cooling, massaging and moisturizing effects. It removes puffy eyes and refreshes my skin.
The cream covers my skin delicately. Moreover, it moisturizes, softens and refreshes my under eye area. Plus, it strengthens my skin and makes it more elastic. It is not a lifting serum.
I’ve been using the product for 2 weeks and have already noticed the result. I’m not sure if it is detectable in the picture. Check it:
It feels like my skin is smoother, fresher and more hydrated now.
The only gripe is that the product causes tears in case of eye contact. It doesn’t burn my eyes or cause any redness, but only tears in my case. In the evening I apply the cream to my under eye area and to the upper eyelid, but in the morning I put it under eyes only to avoid eye contact.
Final thoughts:
The Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Concentrate Matrix is undoubtedly worth your look. It is apt for girls with first signs of aging. The product moisturizes, nourishes and strengthens your skin. Additionally, it refreshes your eyes and makes them glow.
