Body Merry, a skin care company that prioritizes the use of botanical and natural ingredients, has formulated a thick, emollient eye cream packed full of dozens of beneficial ingredients to both prevent and reverse damage caused by exposure to the sun and elements.
Although I am not a huge fan of creams because of my oily skin, it is winter now and there is little to no moisture in the air, so this Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream prevented the skin under my eyes from crinkling up as if I am 100 years old.
Some of the 70 beneficial elements that make this cream so thick and rich include:
- Vitamin C for brightening and reduction of age spots or excess pigmentation
- Aloe, jojoba oil and other humectants for moisture
- Chamomile to prevent chapping, redness and irritation
Although I did not see the fine lines under my eyes change, I have only used the product for about 4 weeks, so in all likelihood another 4 weeks of use might be needed to see effects on the lines. What I did notice, however, is the darkness under my eyes seemed to dissipate so I looked more awake and well rested. Also, like I mentioned above, the hydration the cream provides is good for me right now due to how dry the winter air is here in Maryland.
I don’t think I can use the cream in the summer, however, because of how oily my skin can be. If you have normal or dry skin, you can probably use this product year round without any trouble.
Although Body Merry feels the cream is lightweight, it seemed thick and heavy to me, but I agree with Body Merry that it acts like a lightweight cream by absorbing quickly without leaving an oily texture behind–excellent.
This eye cream is appropriate for anyone who prefers to use natural ingredients in the eye area (where the skin is extra thin) and wants to prevent or reverse the signs of aging, but it can be used by individuals of any age or gender to keep the undereye area looking bright.
