The Benefits of L’Oreal Paris Age Perfect Eye Renewal Eye Cream

As we age, cell renewal can slow down and cause a decrease in overall skin vitality, even around the eye area. This is bad news for all of us gals trying to look younger than our years, especially since the thin, delicate skin around the eye is one of the first areas to show signs of aging—think: crow’s feet, lines, bags, etc. But it’s not all doom and gloom. There are ways we can help perk up our peepers to look younger, radiant, and revitalized. Enter: Eye cream, specifically L’Oreal Paris Age Perfect Eye Renewal Eye Cream. Inspired by 20 years of skin cell biology research, Eye Renewal boasts five beautifying actions on signs of aging around the eyes, including dark circles, bags, puffiness, lines, and crepey lids. The innovation includes a powerful skin-renewing formula that helps reveal new cells on the skin’s surface for a radiant, revitalized eye contour. But that’s not all. The eye cream is also formulated with pro-cysteine and helps defend skin against free radical damage and oxidative stress.

So, just what are the results? Within hours, the eye area is hydrated, firmer, toned, and smoothed. In four weeks, notice visibly diminished dark circles, a reduced appearance of under-eye bags, smoothed out crow’s feet and lines, a reduced appearance of eyelid crepiness, and an overall more radiant-looking eye area. Not bad, not bad at all.

How to Use L’Oreal Paris Age Perfect Eye Renewal Eye Cream

Apply a small amount of L’Oreal Paris Age Perfect Eye Renewal Eye Cream onto a cleansed eye area every morning and evening. To help ensure your eye cream doesn’t migrate into your eye after using it, apply a few dots around each orbital bone from the inner to the outer corners of the eye area—and don’t forget your brow bone. Then, use your ring finger or pinky to gently pat in the formula with light strokes. Be sure not to tug on the skin, as this can cause wrinkling over time.

For best results, L’Oreal recommends the following regimen with the Age Perfect range:

Step one: Cleanse your skin with Age Perfect Cell Renewal Cleanser.

Step two: Apply Age Perfect Eye Renewal Eye Cream, followed by Age Perfect Cell Renewal Golden Serum OR Age Perfect Cell Renewal Facial Oil.

Step three: Moisturize with Age Perfect Cell Renewal Day Cream OR Age Perfect Cell Renewal Night Cream, depending on the time of day.

L’Oreal Paris Age Perfect Eye Renewal Eye Cream Review

Right off the bat, I was really excited to see an eye cream stored in a pump container. Most eye formulas I try are stored in jars, which requires frequent dipping into the container for use (if there’s no applicator included). This pump container dispenses an equal amount of cream each time. I also love that this particular formula is non-oily. It feels fantastic on my skin, glides easily, and leaves behind zero residue.

After one month straight of daily use, here’s what I found:

• My eyes appear rested, visibly smoother and more radiant.
• The skin around my eyes is more firm, with a visibly reduction in under-eye bags and dark circles.
• The skin around my eyes looks incredibly smooth and silky.

I’m so thrilled with the results I saw after just four weeks of using Eye Renewal! The formula is not only extremely convenient to find at the drugstore, but also won’t dig a hole into my wallet with frequent restocks. (Because let’s face it, eye cream can be expensive) Thanks to the positive results I experienced with Eye Renewal, it’s now a staple in my arsenal.
