Ella Baché Eternal Beautifying Eye Cream
Formulated with advanced ingredient skin technology, this eye cream focuses on repairing the skin around the eyes. Ultra-hydrating and easily absorbed, the cream is packed with collagen boosters and antioxidants that firm and brighten the delicate eye area.
Reviewers said: “This eye cream is awesome! It’s a lovely rich pale yellow cream that is super hydrating and soothing. It’s a bit thicker than some other eye products I’ve used, which is really good because that helps the cream to stay put instead of creeping into my eyes like a lot of other eye products do. I can see that it has brightened my under eye area and I don’t get any lines when I smile or squint.”

It ticks all those boxes for me. My under eye area looks plump and hydrated with zero irritation.”

I use this as well. I’m not sure if I have seen any benefit yet. I only use it in the morning and use a different cream at night.
I would buy the L’Occitane one for the packaging along
Normally I would go for Innisfree. But I feel Olay is really calling me right now.
I just use a really rich, hydrating cream under my eyes and it does the trick!
