  • LIGHTENS DARK CIRCLES: Arnica works to stimulate white blood cell activity, relieving trapped fluid and bruising, leaving the eye are refreshed and brightened.
  • DEPUFFS EYE AREA: Naturally derived Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, a unique type of Vitamin C known as one of the most effective and deeply penetrating topical antioxidants, gives eye cream an extra boost by improving skin circulation. Leaving under eyes visibly brighter for a well-rested, bright-eyed look.
  • NOURISHES & HYDRATES: The skin around eyes is thinner and more fragile than the rest of the facial area and therefore needs deep hydration to remain soft and toned. Organic Rosehip Oil, botanical Hyaluronic Acid, and our Proprietary Silk Protein Amino Acid Blend are nature’s most powerful sources of hydration, for a smoother eye area.”

Review:

Between the two the eye cream is my favorite! One pump is more than enough to do both eyes. It’s texture is thin, almost like a serum. It gets tacky as it absorbs into the skin. The color is a pale creamsicle orange. I used the True Glow Eye Cream only at night. I found for my skin type (oily) it was too much for during the day. As for the claims: I didn’t notice a significant difference in my dark circles. I did nourish and hydrate. I don’t have wrinkles so I can’t say about that. Anything that hydrates will help diminish fine lines though. Again for the depuffing claim, I don’t have puffy under eyes. The reason I liked it was it helped tighten around my eyes. The pores on my brow bone didn’t see as apparent when wearing matte flesh tones.
The mask was average. It did hydrate. When looking at the claims thats about all it’s suppose to do. I guess it lives up to the claims but my biggest con was the smell. It was quite strong. After washing off the mask hours later I could still smell it. I think with regular use this product might help people with drier skin types.
  • How many stars? Eye: 3.5/5 Mask 3/5
  • Who would you recommend this product for? Dry, mature skin types. Those looking for an organic / natural brand. 
  • Last Comments? Overall these products were good. Nothing ground breaking in my book but worth a try. I have oilier skin so I don’t think I could see the full benefits. I will continue to use the eye cream. I think these products were an example of good ingredients, mediocre results. 
Have you tried anything from Valentia (xx)? Thoughts?
These product was sent to me for review. My opinions/thoughts are completely honest! ♡
