Verdict
I was expecting to love this one and I really don't. Foo!
For me it does nothing: it's not hydrating, has no effect on dark circles or wrinkles, and doesn't particularly revive my eye area either. I also don't think it moisturises properly. What a let-down!
I'm surprised because Clarins' Beauty Flash Balm is just so good and I'd thought this would be too.
I've had a look online and most people agree with me, lamenting that this does nothing and comparing it to the far-superior Beauty Flash Balm.
I definitely wouldn't buy this. If you've had your eye on it because you love the original product, I strongly recommend testing it first.
