Clarins Eye Contour Gel

After making a rather large splurge in Bamboo Beauty a couple of months ago I received a number of free products with my purchases. One of these free products was this dinky little Clarins Eye Contour Gel.

This gel promises to minimise puffiness and dark circles around the eye area. It contains Wild Rose which helps to drain the skin of toxins and help tackle puffiness and dark circles, concentrated Rose Water helps to relax, soften and soothe the eye area and Palmetto refreshes and tones the eye area. 

Now me not being one for gel products on my face I was very wary of trying this but the lady in Bamboo Beauty assured me that it is fine for the most sensitive of skins. It is very cooling and refreshing when applied to the skin thanks to the Palmetto so is lovely to use in the mornings to awaken your under eye area. With being a gel consistency is it very light in texture and sinks into the skin almost immediately, one of the benefits of it being a gel based product is that you can also apply over makeup throughout the day so it's great for that afternoon lul when your eyes need a slight pick me up.

I must say I am getting increasingly impressed with the Clarins gel based products, my skin tends to react really badly to gel products as they just dry it out but this Eye Contour Gel has been absolutely lovely to use and has hydrated rather than dry out my under eye area.

Have you tried this product? What do you think of it?

  1. I had a little sample of this too, but really wasn't at impressed! It was such a watery consistency that it slides off quite quickly, and whilst quite refreshing, it didn't do much else! Disappointing product! Works differently for everyone though!

    1. OH REALLY, WHAT A SHAME BUT AS YOU SAY ALL PRODUCTS WORK DIFFERENTLY FOR EACH PERSON.
