Ole Henriksen – Ultimate Lift Eye Gel
Suited to all skin types, this anti-aging eye treatment harnesses the natural power of cucumber and calendula to counter signs of fatigue, irritation, and age. It intensely hydrates, using humectants to plump, firm, and smooth the often-neglected eye zone, reducing puffiness, sagging, and wrinkles.
My Thoughts:
I received a sample of Ultimate Lift Eye Gel from Sephora, and started using it immediately. A few months later, I have to say I am very pleased with it. I usually apply it in the evening, since it is a bit sticky and does not play well with makeup applied over it.
Though Ultimate Lift Eye Gel does contain a few ingredients that have some contamination concerns, it still receives a significantly lower hazard score (see below) than most other eye treatments I have tried in the past. I have tried a few that were more expensive, and none of the others have had noticeable results.
Since using Ultimate Lift Eye Gel, I have been asked on more than one occasion why I look so rested, by someone who knows me well enough to know that I hadn’t slept well the night before. Needless to say, when this sample runs out I will be purchasing a full sized jar.
