Hi
lovelies!
I'm
back with another post, and now I’m Using my IPad to write up posts when I'm not on my
laptop, so that I have plenty of posts and ideas for my blog. I love using my
iPad as it's a lot easier to store ideas and get inspiration for new posts. I
felt like I lost my blogging mojo a little, but I think stress was a big part
of it too. However, I'm feeling pretty good about blogging again.. Especially
with a little make over that I have planned. Today's review is going to be
about an eye cream I have been absolutely loving, despite it being a product I
thought I might not actually get along with. I'm not the biggest wine fan, so
when I saw that it was a wine based eye cream I did have some reservations
about using it. However, it's become my go to eye cream for the past three
weeks, and I'm really excited to review this as the reviews of it are very
limited online. Anyway beauties! I will get right into the review and as always
I love hearing from you all, so don't be shy :)
About
This
anti wrinkle and firming eye cream contains red wine resveratrol and lupin
extract to improve elasticity and reduce lines and wrinkles. Escin and ruscogenine reduces dark circles,
as well as using beeswax, Shea butter, hyaluronic acid, oat and lecithin to
moisturise in depth.
The
Review
Initially,
I thought I wasn't going to really get along with this product, as I'm not that
fussed on wine and the scent of it. However, I have been pleasantly surprised
by this product and it has actually replaced my Origins Eye Doctor, which may I
add is a still a really good moisturising eye cream. Apivita Is a brand I have
heard of and seen in M&S but it's a brand I have never really known much
about. Apivita is a natural cosmetics brand from Greece with a wide range of
natural Skincare and bath and body products. Apivita focus on creating green
products that have a Greek twist, plus they are free from any nasties.
The
best thing about being a beauty blogger is finding out about new brands and
products, and since trying this product I have purchased other products from
the brand that are also amazing! ( the express eye patches are amazing ) Anyway
moving onto the actual eye cream ... This eye cream is absolutely amazing for
moisturising the eye area, but at the same time it isn't too much. the cream is
quite buttery, which makes it a dream to apply under the eye area. The cream
has a slight pearlescent tone to it which I find helps to almost lift the
appearance of the eye area, which instantly makes you feel more bright and
awake. The Apivita Wine a Elixir Eye and Lip Cream is a really comprehensive
cream which covers, wrinkles, lines, darkness, puffiness, dehydration and
taking care of the lip area all in one product. Since using it I have found the
texture of my under eye area has improved and I haven't experienced any dryness
at all. I have been using it under my Bobbi Brown Concealer, and it has kept my
eyes from becoming dehydrated, which is amazing especially in the horrific
weather we have been having in the UK recently. In terms of dark circles I find
it hard to monitor how well an eye cream is working, as mine are hereditary :(
however, I have had a few no concealer days since using this cream, which is
always a good sign.. As it's the dark circles I want to cover haha.
Overall
this eye cream has definitely made a positive impact on me, but there are a few
things that I need to mention. Firstly, there is a definite scent of wine! But
because it's an eye cream the scent isn't strong as it's not all over your
face. The scent also hasn't put me off using this eye cream at all, but it's
still something to take into consideration if you’re quite sensitive to any type of fragrance. It's also very
expensive (£32.00), but in my opinion it's just as good as Origins Eye Doctor/ Ginzing if
not a little better, as the apivita eye and lip cream covers every possible eye
and lip concern you could imagine.
Apivita
is definitely a brand that has got me interested and wanting to try more. The
Wine Elixir Eye and Lip Cream has quickly become my go to eye product, as it
has genuinely kept my eye area smooth, hydrated and brighter looking. If you
are looking for a multi tasking eye cream and don't mind the smell of red wine
then this would be a fantastic choice. I hope you have enjoyed this review, as
I always put my all into my reviews to make them as detailed as possible. Don't

Fairly insightful submit. Never thought that it was this simple after all. I had spent a great deal of my time looking for someone to explain this subject clearly and you're the only 1 that ever did that. Kudos to you! Keep it up

When in reality it is best to begin using eye cream in your late teens or early twenties, thereby preventing the appearance of future wrinkles, since it only makes sense to prevent any damage being done while you are young. How to get rid of bags under eyes
