Organic Apoteke Eye Cream Reviews

Review of Organic Apoteke Rejuvenating Eye Cream
by Joanna E.

Packaging: The Organic Apoteke Rejuvenating Eye Cream comes in a glass bottle with a plastic pump fitting and lid, all of which are recyclable. The Organic Apoteke logo is a tiny discreet one and the black printing makes for a very neat appearance.
Application: The Organic Apoteke eye cream has a lovely silky smooth texture and is quite runny which makes it very easy to apply. The pump yields very well to gentle pressure, making it easy to measure out the tiny amount of cream that you need. It is a gentle cream colour which I found blended quickly into the eye area, and was absorbed impressively quickly into my skin leaving it really soft. There was no stickiness or greasiness remaining on my skin after the cream had been absorbed. The skin around my eyes can be quite sensitive, but I had no problems with this cream at all and after using it once each day for a couple of weeks, not only do I have soft skin but I also seem to have fewer fine lines around my eyes, which is always a bonus!

Ingredients: I love the fact that all the ingredients Organic Apoteke uses in their products are either vegetarian or vegan friendly. There are no animal ingredients used, no synthetic additives nor any of the harsh chemicals such as parabens, just natural and organically certified ingredients. The list for the Organic Apoteke Eye Cream is an impressive one, with oils and butters of sunflower, almond, coconut, shea and carrot all of which are excellent for the skin, having very enriching properties. The whole is gently scented with rose and some thought has obviously gone into putting the best ingredients together to create an eye cream that does what it sets out to do. As no harsh chemicals are used, Organic Apoteke Eye Cream does have a limited life of 6 months, which is no problem as using it every day means that the 15ml bottle would last less than the 6 months. I also like the fact there is an expiry date on the base of the bottle.

Results: By using Organic Apoteke Eye Cream once every day for a couple of weeks, there is a definite difference in the softness of the skin around my eyes and also a few less tiny lines. The cream is priced very reasonably and for the tiny amount used each day certainly represents good value for money, especially with all the excellent ingredients it contains.

Pros:
Absorbs well into the skin, leaving no residue
Improves the skin around the eyes
Lovely subtle aroma
Excellent ingredients

Cons:
Can’t really think of any but the tip of the pump could get a bit dried up if you didn’t use it for a while.
