Skin Care Review: Lancome Resolution Eye D-Contraxol

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
Reduces fine lines/wrinkles in the eye area. Makes eye area appear softer and smoother.

Drawbacks
Needs to be used in conjunction with a moisturizer. The product is kind of expensive.

Details
I am 29 years old and have recently begun to notice fine lines around my eyes. They first showed up about a year ago. At first I only noticed them when I smiled or laughed, but soon they were there all of the time. I spent a majority of my teen years in the sun with very little sunscreen, so I think that is the reason they showed up so early. Now, I apply sunscreen everyday, but I wanted to do something about my eye area.

I normally use DHC Concentrated Eye Cream, but I felt I needed something with anti-aging properties. I read positive reviews about Lancome Resolution Eye D-Contraxol, so I decided to give it a try.

The cream has a nice texture - not too heavy - and a light, pleasant scent. It sinks in quickly, and I do not have to use alot of the cream - a little goes a long way. I started using this about 4 weeks ago, and I originally used morning and night. Now I use it at only at night, and I put the DHC Concentrated Eye Cream on top. If I just use the Lancome treatment without an additional moisturizer, I find that my eye area gets a little dry.

At first I did not notice an improvement, but around the end of the third week, the lines are almost completely gone. Even when I smile or laugh, I cannot see them. My eye area appears smoother and brighter. I did not experience any irritation at all - and I have sensitive skin.

Conclusions
This is an excellent anti-aging treatment for they eye area that does what it promises.
