Hylexin serious dark circles eye cream review



a formula of antioxidants, humectants, repairing elements, and de-puffing components to fight darkness under the eyes and ugly discoloration.(claim)

This eye cream won as the 2011 best eye cream in cleo magazine .I bought this eye cream was because of a prospect of this eye cream can help to solve my serious dark circle problem.
Ingredients:
Water, Glycerin, Cyclopentasiloxane, Silica, Cetyl Alcohol, Gynostemma Pentaphyllum Extract, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Polyglyceryl-3 Beeswax, Stearic Acid, Dipeptide-2, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Chrysin, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3, Hydroxysuccinimide, Hesperidine Methyl Chalcone, Steareth-20, Polysilicone 11, Chlorhexidine Digluconate, Potassium Sorbate, Triethanolamine, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben

This eye cream consists of various active ingredients such as :hydroxysuccinate, gynostemma pentaphyllum extract, palmitoyl oligopeptide and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-3.All of them helps to reduce the puffiness and spider vein around the eye area. The main active ingredient is the chrysin which is a plant extract and poses the function almost same with the other active ingredients. Silica is a semi metal that only helps to make the skin surface smooth virtually .Cetyl alcohol may cause driness,The worst thing is that ,this product is labelled as paraben free,but what can you see at the end of the ingredient list?

I massage for  around 5 mins also can`t absorb properly...

It has a creamy texture and cannot be spread out easily, this leads to the formation of fine line around the delicate eye area in case you over rub  when you are applying. It has a distinctive natural floral smell without the aiding of fragrance. After applying on the eye area, you can see an immediate brightening effect, but it will not persist until the next morning. After using for one month, I did not see any reduction on the dark circle, on top of that, my eye area becomes allergic sometime. However  I would not blame this eye cream since this condition may due to I overused of the eye cream .The allergic reaction will be more obvious in case you put the eye cream on the upper eyelid.

Instructions:
Apply by massaging the cream around the eye contour region. (Note: No actual how-to-use information is published on the Hylexin site.)

Pros: one tube can last for a very long time
Cons: expensive, causing allergic, poor texture

Available in sasa and research labs counter,retailed price RM 235 for 15 ml
