Hello beautiful people ,
I’m not really sure how to write a review . This is the first product review I post on my blog , and it is a negative one !
I bought this pack in a parapharmacy for 145,50 Dhs (approximately 15 USD) . It says “buy one , get one free” . So I bought the Diopticerne eye contour dark circle correcting cream untinted and I got the tinted one for free .
This is the untinted one :
And this is the tinted one :
As you can see , the tubes are quite small .
I have dark undereyes and the untinted correcting cream was supposed to help reduce the appearance of dark circles and shadows . Based on reviews I read online , I had high hopes for this cream .
Few minutes after applying the intinted one , I would feel a sensation of burning and tingling in my eye contour . It would last three minutes and then fade . I thought that the sensation of it burning meant that it was working its magic . But then on the 11th day , after applying it , the sensation of the burning and tingling didn’t fade after three minutes . I kept feeling it even after an hour after applying the cream . I couldn’t bear it so I washed the product away . The contour of my eyes was left a bit red , but the redness faded by the next day . I stopped using it after that . And as for my dark circles , I didn’t notice any difference . I used the tinted cream once , and the colour didn’t quite match my skin . And because I don’t wear makeup on a daily basis , there was a very noticeable difference in color .
I honestly don’t know what caused the burning and tingling sensation , is the contour of my eyes sensitive or is it something else ? Anyways , this product is a big flop for me . And actually it was the first eye cream I ever used !
I am still in the search for a miracle solution for my dark cirles . If you have any recommendations , please tell me about it in the comments . And thank you for reading up to here !
Hi Yasmine! I use almond oil or castor oil in the undereye area. While I don’t think they make a huge difference I like that they are a natural and they are suitable for sensitive skin. I hope you find something that works for you! 😊

Hi , thank you for reading ! I am afraid of using another product with chemicals on my undereye area so I think I’ll switch to natural oils ! And thank you again ! 😊
