Burt's Bees Royal Jelly Eye Creme

Review of Burt’s Bees Royal Jelly Eye Crème.
By Sue B.

Packaging
Burt’s Bees Royal Jelly Eye Crème with aloe vera comes in a neat little purple recyclable cardboard box with several illustrations of bees around it. There is a lot of information on the box including a list of ingredients, directions for use and a brief explanation of royal jelly and its properties. It clearly states that this Burt’s Bees product is 94.20% natural, an important fact for me as I prefer to use organic or natural products, if available.
Inside the box is a frosted glass jar with a silver coloured lid depicting two more bees and the text “burt’s”, which would not look out of place on any dressing table.

Application
This off white crème has a rich, smooth texture which, although feels sticky on application, is absorbed easily. The information on the box states that it can be used under make-up but, due to a greasy residue, I preferred to use it at night.
Burt’s Bees Eye Cream with aloe vera has a subtle fragrance and, by applying using gentle tapping movements with the pads of the finger tips, leaves the skin feeling soft and moisturised. Just a light covering on the finger is all that is required as “a little goes a long way”.

Ingredients
I love the fact that Burt’s Bees Jelly Eye Crème with aloe vera is 94.20% natural. The inclusion of natural preservatives gives this product 12 months of use once opened, which should be ample time if used regularly. The ingredients are clearly listed both on the base of the jar and on the outer box, so you have the information available before purchase.

Results
Burts Bees royal jelly eye crème with aloe vera left my delicate eye area feeling soothed and nourished as I slept. I’m sure with regular use it will minimise those “laughter” lines as it did help reduce puffiness and relieved tired eyes.

Pros:
The petite 14g jar is small enough to take away.
It has a subtle fragrance.
It is soothing and moisturising.

Cons:
It leaves a greasy residue.
