Skin Genie Anti Eyeging Review

There's quite of a hype about this eye care product in beautymnl.com and I got really intrigued. Good thing that they were in Trendsetter's Bazaar last February and I got this for a buy 1-take-1 deal. It comes in a 10 ml roller bottle, like the ones used for oil perfume or cologne. I think this type of packaging is nice because it helps massage the under eye.

I bought this from Skin Genie during the Trendsetter Bazaar last February.
They now have a new packaging when I checked beautymnl.com.

What I like:
  • What's amazing is that this really soothes your eyes. If you have puffy, tired eyes, it will help your eyes calmed and moisturized. I now understand the hype.
  • It's cool when applied. If you put this in the refrigerator, it will be more soothing. 
  • In fairness, the product does not spill from the roller bottle. Of course, when you roll under your eyes, it dispenses quite more than enough.
  • It's kind of watery but not oily. It's quite sticky like a serum or essence.

What I do not like:

This is not good under makeup, especially if you have rolled a lot. It is best only to apply during bed time or if you do not have any plans on going out of your house.


Will I repurchase?

Maybe. I'm still open on having an all in one product that moisturizes, soothes and can be used under makeup.

I don't want to say that I like this better than the Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream because I use them respectively on respective routines. I use Mizon for day time and Skin Genie for night time or when I am just at home. They do both work and I get no milia from using them.

Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream Review

I've never used any eye creams or eye care products when I was younger. I really had an oily face before, so I don't use any moisturizer or any eye creams. I think I oiled too much to make my eye area quite moisturized. Well, I am not that young anymore and the grease production on my face has already calmed down. I need something to moisturize, calm and soothe my eye area, without getting unwanted side effects, like milia. I stare a lot at the computer for long hours almost every day and it tires my eyes badly. I can see some fine lines already. I'm also wearing contact lenses and it really tires my eye muscles after wearing them for more than 8 hours. I used aloe gel before but I feel that it's not that adequate for my eye issues. I think as you age, you may need a little bit of a help. So, it is already high time for me to get eye creams.

I got to know about Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream when I searched online for affordable eye creams. Mizon is often listed within the top 10 of many lists and there are a lot of reviews about it. Some like it, some don't. I also read Fiddy Snail's review and listened to Gothamista's vlog about it and that helped me decide buying this one.

I got Mizon during a free shipping sale from beautymnl in November last year. There are two variants for this eye cream: a tub and a tube. I got the tube one because it's hygienic, even though it's only 15 ml. I haven't finished it yet since I only put this usually at daytime, seldom at night. Though, I think I should use this up already. It has been a year already. (#^O^#)

As of writing, it is still sold the same price as the time I bought it last year. :O

What I like:
  • It contains 80% snail mucin. I'm quite a fan of snail mucin recently.
  • It has no smell. 
  • It is not greasy. It is very, very light and a little goes a long way. 
  • It sinks in very quickly, so it is nice to put under makeup.
  • It's good as a daytime eye cream. It's moisturizing enough to help you apply concealer smoothly.

What I don't like:

Nothing I can think of really. (#^O^#)


Will I repurchase?

I think, I would. I'm still open to other eye creams but this can be a repurchase without a doubt!
