Advertised Benefits
The Lancôme website advertises the following benefits:
Pushes lines and wrinkles up and out in the eye area
Adds firmness to skin in the eye area
Firms and strengthens skin in the eye area
Reduces appearance of dark circles in the eye area
Reduces puffiness and dark circles in the eye area
It goes on to explain the technology that is used in the Lancôme High Resolution Eye Collaser 5X eye serum:
Rice Peptides (Collaser-48™): Stimulate synthesis of Collagen I, III and VII, the main collagens in the dermal-epidermal junction
Alfalfa Extract and Co-Enzyme R combined with Vitamin Cg: Stimulates synthesis of Collagens IV and V to help provide structural support
Vitamin P: Strengthens blood capillary walls in the eye area
Caffeine: Stimulates microcirculation in the eye area
Look and Feel
The .5 fl. Oz. (15mL) container is small and elegant. The serum looks like a cream when it is pumped out but feels more like oil when applied around the eye. It has a cooling sensation and does make my eyes feel refreshed. I have accidently gotten some in my eye and there was no burning or irritation.
Wrinkle Test
I have been using the serum in the morning and at night for two weeks now. I have noticed a slight decrease in my morning wrinkles.
Puffy Eye Test
I rented the movie Marley and Me and sobbed. After a massive cry session my eyes are swollen for days. I applied the Lancôme High Resolution Eye Collaser 5X eye serum both that night and the next morning in hopes I would not look like a monster at work. I was especially impressed that my eyes were visually less swollen in the morning. For puffiness control this product gets an A+.
Unexpected Results
I took my son to an indoor mini golf course and discovered that this eye cream is responsive to black lights. I am not sure why but I had glowing circles around my eyes.
Overall Score Card
The Lancôme High Resolution Eye Collaser 5X eye serum feels great and seems to work well. It is $59 for .5 fl. Oz. (15mL) which is too expensive for me even with the free gift. I will enjoy the eye serum while it lasts but I will not be purchasing it again.

Post a CommentLOL. A bit too much for my budget too, and I certainly don't need the bags under my eyes lighting up! Tweeted
I won't even buy makeup! If I'm happy with how I look, why paint myself up to make others happy?
I'd need a few of these!
Thanks for the heads up! The glowing circles might be fun around Halloween. ;)
Even a slight decrease in "wrinkle-age" (is that a word?) might get me to try a sample :)
