Review: Relastin Eye Silk

They say your eyes are the window to your soul, but sometimes they’re a red flag for your age too!  Crow’s feet, dark circles, sagging…eh, you get the idea. I’m an eye cream junkie, so when a sample of Relastin Eye Silk came my way, I was eager to try it!

Relastin Eye Silk boasts that it will help improve your skin’s elasticity and firmness by promoting a natural protein called elastin, which contributes to your skin’s own youthfulness.

I’ve had my share of eye products come my way—some are heavy, some are greasy, some tingle, some are gooey.  This stuff is hands-down the best consistency I’ve ever experienced.  This featherweight gel is unlike anything else you may have felt.  It sinks right into your skin and goes right to business, diminishing wrinkles, reducing puffiness and giving dark circles the boot.  Many eye products suggest you apply them in the morning and at night, but usually they’re so dense and greasy your eye make-up doesn’t stand a chance of staying on after a morning application.  Relastin Eye Silk not only doesn’t leave residue, but it almost instantly smooths your eye area so make-up application is actually easier!  I felt like my eye make-up actually stayed on better when I used this underneath. 

They suggest using this product 4-6 weeks before seeing results.  However, after two weeks of morning and night application, I did notice my eye area was firmer and my wrinkles weren’t as deep.

Bottom Line: My only qualm about this product is the packaging. I wish it came in a jar instead of a pump.  It would help me have better control over how much product to use and help eliminate waste.  Otherwise, I suggest you make room in your make-up drawer for a new product. This stuff rocks!
