I was excited a few months ago to get my mitts on the Benefit b.right It's Potent Eye Cream. Not only was I excited about Benefit's description of the product but also the stunning packaging. As with all Benefit product's the packaging is very pretty and look's good on your bathroom cabinet. The price is £24.50 for 14.2g...........read on and find out if it was worth the splurge!
What Benefit claims about the product:
First of all I should tell you that my eyes are my problem area. I suffer from dark circles around my eyes and have permanent dark pigmentation under my eye area.
Eye cream is something I normally do not mind spending a few extra pennies on. However this product claims to be brightening and it did not brighten my eye area at all. In fact if anything it made my eyes red as it stings on application. After reading a lot of reviews about the product this seems to be a common problem. Benefit state that you should just dab the cream gently and not rub it in, even though I did this it still hurt my eyes.
A product that claims to help restore elasticity and firmness tends to be moisturising and I am afraid I just found this product oily. It does not have a luxury feel and actually feels less luxurious that some of the cheaper drug store brand eye creams. I found that the oily consistency of this product made it hard for me to apply my under eye concealer and found that my concealer just slipped off.
I did give this product a good chance as I used it for 4 months.
Sorry Benefit I will not be repurchasing this product again and would not recommend this to anyone else either. At the price of £24.50 I feel this product is hugely overpriced.
