A MUST-TRY beauty product instantly transformed the crepey skin around the eyes of a woman in her forties.

She gushed about having achieved similar results to people who opt for cosmetic surgery to improve the appearance of wrinkled skin.

She spoke candidly on Reddit’s 45 Plus Skincare forum in response to a user asking how to tighten their crepey upper eyelids.

THINGS ARE LOOKING UP 

The woman shared a link to a beauty product that she was wowed by after receiving it as a sample.

“Worked! Felt the tightening/lifting almost immediately, lasted all day long,” she said, writing under the handle Lazygardener76.

“Almost like an eye lift in a tube haha.

"Didn't purchase it as it doesn't fit within my budget. 

“I usually use TO's caffeine serum instead.”

She revealed that she alternates using Clarins Total Eye Revive all over her eyes, with The Ordinary’s Caffeine Serum.

“I don't have a problem with products migrating,” she said.

“I know some people have oily eyelids, for them I'd say avoid putting products on their lids.”

Many Redditors upvoted the post to show that they were grateful for the product recommendation.

SKINCARE SPLURGE

Clarins Total Eye Revive has been formulated to target fine lines, dark circles, and puffiness.

It contains the natural ingredient furcellaria to help protect the skin from pollution.

The brand recommends warming a small amount of the product in between your fingers before gently patting it onto the skin.

The step should be repeated four times for optimal results. 

COSMETIC CRAZE

Delighted customers have given the cream a 4.1-star rating out of a possible 5 and penned rave reviews.

Among them is one woman who was convinced to buy it full size after seeing a dramatic improvement in her under-eyes in just days.

“Noticed the difference after one week of using a sample,” she said.

“I used it on one eye only for the first week, then asked my better half if he could tell which eye I’d used it on and he could, so I bought the full size.”

Another shopper revealed the eye cream has been a staple part of her skincare routine since she discovered it.

“I've been using this eye cream for about 4 years and absolutely love the little application end,” she said.

“One little squeeze of the tube and you can get the exact amount required and apply it to the eye area simply with the cool metal-shaped applicator. 

“My eyes feel refreshed without puffiness especially in the mornings after a late night and not a lot of sleep due to being a shift worker.”
