My Experience with VLCC Almond Under Eye Cream

 

I started using this product because my main concern was my mild dark circles that I developed due to ignorance. So I just needed a product which would do that for me while moisturizing the skin under the eye. I came across this product and tried it and it kind of lightened the dark circles within the application of few weeks.

It comes in a cute little jar and has a soothing almond-like fragrance, which I really love. It is white in color and looks thick in texture but spreads very well and gets absorbed in the skin, it is also not too oily. And the best thing about it is that it also gives a cooling effect when applied. But, it doesn’t stand on its claims. As it does not fade the dark circles completely even after regular use for about 3-4 months.

Pros:

1. Easily available
2. Moisturises and gives a cooling effect on the application.
3. Easy to apply and use.
4. Affordable
5. Not too oily or greasy.
6. Travel-friendly.

 

Cons:

1. Only lightens the dark circles, does not fade them away completely.
2. Comes in a glass jar, which is unhygienic.

 

Overall Performance of VLCC Almond Under Eye Cream

The claims made by the brand are not completely true, as it does not fully eliminate the dark circles; it just lightened them to some extent. So if you have notable dark circles, I would not recommend this product to you. Otherwise, if you have mild dark circles like me, then surely go for it, as it worked for me.

 

Would I recommend or repurchase it?

 

It worked for me. So I would only recommend it to those who have mild dark circles. Don’t go for it if you have prominent dark circles because it does not completely fade them, it only lightens them a bit. I would rate this product 3/5, as it doesn’t do what it claims. So, for visible dark circles, it’s totally not recommended.
