I saw a YouTube video by the manager of a cosmetics specialty store and heard it was effective against under-eye wrinkles, so I bought it. Lately, I've been really bothered by under-eye wrinkles! In the afternoon, foundation gets stuck in the wrinkles, making them even more noticeable, and I want to do something about it. I wasn't sure where to buy this product, so I searched and found it on Suzykirei online. It was also during a 10% point rebate sale, so I ordered it immediately. Suzykirei online is so convenient and helpful in situations like these. This product is supposed to be applied to the problem areas immediately after washing your face. It looks like a serum, or a slightly softer eye cream. It spreads easily, so just a small amount is enough. It absorbs quickly and isn't sticky at all, so it's easy to use before applying makeup. I know that using this won't completely eliminate wrinkles and won't have an immediate effect, but I'm going to try one bottle first to prevent further damage. It's only 15 grams, so it's not a very large amount, but you only need a small amount each time, so it seems like it will last. I'll decide whether to repurchase after I've finished the first bottle. The usability and price are satisfactory so far.
I remember buying and using this brand's eye patches a long time ago, so I decided to buy this one. It's supposed to be applied to the problem areas immediately after washing your face. I wasn't used to it, so I applied it like a serum, just like I normally do. I don't think it'll have an immediate effect, but I'll try using up the whole bottle.
It has a texture that is more compatible with the skin than Wrinkle Shot and is suitable for pinpoint application. It is a serum that settles into thin areas of dry skin and prevents wrinkles before they occur. Although ethanol is ranked highly, it is an excellent serum that does not irritate the skin around or under the eyes at all. I had been interested in the IC.U brand, so I liked this product and it was an excellent product that made me want to repurchase it and try their other items.
I was attracted by the words "topical Botox" and bought it. For now, I've switched to using only this wrinkle-fighting product, and continued my usual skincare routine. I apply this to the problem areas immediately after washing my face. It's thick, so it feels a bit sticky, but two pumps are enough for my entire face. I've never really liked layering lotion on top of it. I've almost finished the whole bottle, but I don't think I've noticed any effect... Will I see any effect if I use several bottles...? I usually use Vital Perfection Retinobright, and I feel that this is much more effective.
I bought this product with high expectations after seeing it rave about its immediate effects on a beauty salon YouTube channel. I usually use BA Eye Zone Cream and am satisfied with it, but it's on the pricey side, so I was looking for something a little more affordable. This caught my eye and I bought it. About a month after I started using this product, the wrinkles under my eyes that had improved with the BA eye cream reappeared... Oh no... I realized once again that BA is expensive, but it's effective and worth using.
