Review
Loreal Paris Blush Paint Chubby comes in a black coloured plastic tube with pink colour cap. Colour of the cap signifies the shade of the blush. Like 01 Pink shade has pink cap. Similarly 02 Tangerine has orange cap and 03 Fuchsia has Fuchsia coloured cap.

The Blush stick is quite thick, so you get a lot of product. The blush the quite pigmented, therefore a tiny amount is sufficient to give a nice pop of colour on both the cheeks.

Review of Garnier Ultralift Eye Cream

Today I’ll be reviewing Garnier Ultralift Eye Cream which comes in an eye catchy 15mL red coloured plastic tube.



Price - € 6.99 (After 50% off at Boots).



Product details (As given on Boots Website)

Garnier Ultralift Firming Eye Cream - 15 ml gives visible results after just 8 days. Garnier Ultralift Firming Eye Cream - 15 ml is specially designed to smooth the delicate skin around the eye area.

- Smoothes the skin around the eye contour area
- Visibly softens wrinkles and fine lines
- Firms the skin
- Ophthalmologically tested and fragrance free.
- Recharges the natural cellular regeneration mechanism to effectively reduce the appearance of new lines and wrinkles.

Review -

Garnier Ultralift Eye Cream has lotion like runny consistency rather than a thick creamy one. Its quite easy to apply and spreads smoothly without applying much pressure around the eyes. Since the skin around eye is delicate so any eye cream should spread effortlessly. 


As an eye cream it works fine as it moisturises eye contour area really well. It hydrates eye contour   area. But on the downside, it does’nt lightens dark circles nor makes the eye area radiant. So, its claim that this Eye cream is radiance boosting does not hold true. 

Since only a tiny amount is needed each time, so this eye cream is going to last for a long time even after using it for 2 or 3 times daily.  

This eye cream did not work efficiently on fine lines and wrinkles even after using it for 2 months. Maybe, it takes longer than this to show its effectiveness on wrinkles. Overall, Garner Ultralift eye Cream is a good eye cream which moisturises well but does not work on fine lines, wrinkles and dark circles. 

So if you are looking for an eye cream for moisturising the eye area then Garner Ultralift eye cream is a good choice. But if you are expecting anything more from this, you will be disappointed. 

Overall I would give this eye cream 2.5/5 stars.
