The Clarins Super Restorative Total Eye Concentrate targets the visible signs of ageing around the eyes. The formula contains active ingredients that help to combat under-eye puffiness and dark circles, as well as plant-based ingredients like harungana extract to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
The majority of testers were pleased with the visible results. They said the product helped to reduce puffiness and dark circles, and brighten the skin around the eye area. Some members also noticed that after a few days of use, the lines and wrinkles around their eyes were reduced.
Other members were impressed with the easy-to-use pump dispenser and that the concentrate did not leave an oily feel on the skin.
Some testers did mention the high cost of the product, however they did note that only a small amount of product was required per application, so the product would last quite a while.
