ORLANE B21 Anti-Fatigue Eye Cream - Your eyes will be in heaven
Hi everyone!
I've just finished my bottle of Orlane B21 Anti-Fatigue eye cream a few weeks ago. I bought it in February and varied between using it once/day and twice/day. So it's lasted about 6 months. I guess if you used it twice a day you'd probably get about 4.5 months out of it. Pretty good if you ask me!
The texture is a beautiful light lotion that feels very pleasant going on. It does a good job of moisturising the area though it is not a heavy moisturiser. I felt that while in summer it was great day and night, in winter I started using it in the morning only because I wanted a heavier one for night time (I was sleeping in a heated room and while my body was LOVING it; my skin wasn't!).
The cream was recommended to me (by an Orlane SA) to get rid of dark circles. It was a pretty big claim on her part and I can honestly say that it hasn't done that. However I do think that it did a good job of de-puffing the area and making the skin around my eyes look more... um... "awake" I guess.
I think it is a very nice lotion that moisurises well, plumps up your skin and makes the skin around the eye area feel nice and soft in general. Another plus is the packaging. It's a pump bottle so you don't have to dip your finger in a pot of cream. One pump dispenses just the right amount so there is no waste either.
I guess I wouldn't recommend it to people with VERY dry skin. But I think if you're in your 20s or 30s and are looking for a nice light cream then you should definitely put this on your list! I got one of my friends hooked on this one 
Hope that inspires someone to try it.
As an aside, yes, I do realise that sleeping with the heater on in "winter" in Queensland is a bit wussy. But hey, they don't build houses here with winter in mind! :P And it *does* go down to almost 0 Celsius at night sometimes.

| "0" degrees celcius?! Lucky you! I grew up in northern British Columbia, where sometimes, the mercury would drop to -40 degrees celcius! My parents would have to plug-in their vehicles' block-heater, to keep the battery from freezing. Brrrrr! Winter is damp here in Vancouver. No snow. Nowhere near as cold! |

Yeah, I've been a bit spoilt by Australia and now think of anything remotely close to 0 degrees as freezing I grew up in Poland so I USED to tolerate colder temperatures. Nothing as impressive as -40 though!  |

| I'd like to revive this thread because I received a sample of the eye cream with my last order and so far I'm really liking it, but I was hoping to get some other views before I purchase a full size. Anyone out there using this eye cream? |

| I've used it years ago, while no big feeling, not so good, not so bad, but I think that might be the best for an eye cream. |
