Product Review: Dr. Dennis Gross C+ Collagen Brighten & Firm Eye Cream

Product Review: Dr. Dennis Gross C+ Collagen Brighten & Firm Eye Cream 

This product contains some really great ingredients: amino acids, vitamin C, niacinamide, ceramics, peptides, and antioxidants. Too bad it really irritated my eyes. As you can see, I only used about half the tube. At $65 for 0.5 ounces, this is way too expensive to be sensitizing the eyes around my skin! It comes in a pump style tube and is a orangey color. There is no scent and it applies easily. It moisturizes okay, but again the fact that it made the skin around my eyes irritated makes it a no go. Thumbs down from me.

Product Review: Aveeno Almond Oil Blend Oil Mist

Product Review: Aveeno Almond Oil Blend Oil Mist

This is an hair oil mist. It has a really nice scent, although I can't quite put my finger on what the exact scent is. Spritzing it on doesn't leave hair too oily, although it says "oil". I use it prior to blowdrying to protect my hair or post blow dry to add some shine. I wouldn't rely on this for the "deep hydration" it says on the bottle though. If you're looking for hydration use coconut oil or a hair mask.

Product Review: REN Skincare Vitamin C Gel Cream

Product Review: REN Skincare Vitamin C Gel Cream

I actually finished this product a while ago, but here is my review. REN Skincare is a clean beauty brand. This Glow Daily Vitamin C Gel Cream is priced at $48 for 1.69 ounces. It's a lightweight gel cream that absorbs quickly and easily. It has a citrus scent. The packaging is an airless pump which helps preserve the antioxidant properties of the vitamin C. It contains vitamin C in the form of ascorbyl glucoside and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate. It also contains vitamin E in the form of tocopherol. It contains various citrus fruit oils that give it the scent. I love the smell of this. Two thumbs up. Would repurchase.
