Review | The Body Shop Moisture White Shiso 2 in 1 Brightening Eye Cream

I have been on the look out for a good Eye cream since quite sometime. All the work load last year took a major toll on my health and later, less sleep caused puffy eyes. While a member of Team Dancebee suggested that I try the Forrest Essentials eye cream (since she swears by it), I came across the newly launched Moisture White Shiso 2 in 1 Brightening eye cream by The Body Shop and decided to give it a try. Since my major concerns were puffy eyes and signs of fatigue (which this product promises to heal), I thought this eye cream would be a good choice. After using the product for a month, here's what I felt about it. 

Product name: The Body Shop Moisture White Shiso 2 in 1 Brightening Eye Cream

Price: Rs 2295

Quantity: 15ml

What the product promises: The dual action brightening eye cream promises to brighten the eye area, improve the darkened skin and reduce the appearance of the signs of fatigue. After regular application, the skin around eye area feels fresher and smoother.

Key ingredients: Shiso extract and community fair trade aloe

How to use: Take a small quantity of the cream on the micro-circulating massager and massage the product around the eye area.

Texture: The eye cream is very smooth and does not feel sticky. Just a little bit of the cream is required and hence, the product will go a long way.

Our experience: Products like eye creams don't work like magic wands. You need to give it sometime before you can actually see the result. Fortunately, The Body Shop Moisture White Shiso 2 in 1 Brightening Eye Cream starting doing its job on the first day itself. After massaging the product, the eye area felt hydrated and very relaxed. Well, that is exactly what you need after a long day of work. I noticed how the product began reducing the puffyness below my eyes after using it daily for a week. After a fortnight, my eyes looked less puffy and a small dry patch above my right eye had completely vanished. While I cannot comment on how this product works on dark circles, it definitely worked on healing the issues that I was dealing with. I have continued using this product and so far, I have been quite happy. The packaging is great and very travel friendly. The massager is perfect and much needed. I also love the creamy texture and mild fragrance of this product.

 

Pros: - Good packaging

- Love the inclusion of a massager

- Smooth texture and mild fragrance

- Delivers as per promise

- Shelf life of three years 

- Not tested on animals

Cons: None

Verdict: For a product that delivers according to what it has promised, I will definitely vouch for this eye cream. It provides the perfect hydration and care that a good eye cream needs. The massager deserves bonus points, since just a few seconds of massage leaves my eye area feeling relaxed. The texture is not very heavy and is perfect for all skin types (and all seasons too). Since most eye creams are in a higher price bracket, this product is well priced. The  Body Shop Moisture White Shiso 2 in 1 Brightening Eye Cream is worth every penny and is highly recommended by us.
