Product Review: Glow by Dr. Brandt Revitalizing Retinol Eye Cream

Product Overview

Dr Brandt eye cream is a hydrating anti - aging formula. It claims to be a unique combination of time-released Retinol and ruby crystal complex that improves the skin texture around your eyes. It reduces wrinkles and repair delicate eye skin to give the youthful glow. The pure white formula has a gel-like consistency and it seems it is providing orange oil which is a fragrant irritant.  The teeny pieces of micro shimmer in it makes the eyes look more radiant and also removes dead skin and fine lines. But you cannot use any makeup as it doesn't go well with it because of being greasy, so it is better to use it during bedtime. This particular cream doesn't contain ingredients that help to remove dark circles and puffiness. It targets only fine lines and wrinkles.
