Shiseido White Lucent Brightening Eye Treatment

posted Wednesday, 30 July 2008

I'm starting to get dark circles under my eyes, particularly my left eye. They're probably hereditary, but in case they're not, I wanted to see if I could do something about them cosmetically, besides cover them up. I read about Shiseido's White Lucent Brightening Eye Treatment and thought I'd give it a try.  It's billed as "a highly moisturizing, anti-dark circle eye treatment" which sounds like exactly what I need.

According to the company...

"...this lightweight cream addresses both melanin formation and poor local microcirculation, two major causes of dark circles. The Dark Circle Targeting Complex reduces melanin and diminishes the appearance of melanin pigments. By gently massaging the cream onto the skin, local microcirculation is improved while a unique mix of Asian plant extracts recover moisture balance. Additionally, it contains Multi-Luminizing Powder with light diffusing properties to instantly bring luminosity to eye areas."

I've been using Brightening Eye Treatment for about a month now, every day, twice a day as directed.  I make sure to do the little massage routine each time.  And do you know what?  I think it's working.  I find myself using far less concealer than I was before I started the treatment.  My left eye is still a bit darker underneath than my right, but overall they are both a bit lighter.  

The product itself is a light lotion with a pleasant summery scent.  My preference is usually for thicker eye creams, and this one melts right into the skin.  At first, I felt a bit naked, particularly at night, but I now realize that there's an adequate amount of moisture present, especially for these warm summer nights.  And it's especially nice that it's not goopy and doesn't interfere with makeup application in the morning. 

I like Shiseido White Lucent Brightening Eye Treatment, I plan to use it in the future, and I do recommend it for those of you who aren't fond of your dark under-eye circles.  Keep in mind that it's not a miracle-worker, but it makes a difference.
