The Ole Henriksen Banana Bright+ Eye Creme is one of my favourite eye creams in recent times. I think it is one of the best brightening eye creams, it’s a great treatment for dark circles, fine lines and gives instant glow around the eye area. I use it so much and I have no idea how many pots of it I have been through now! I have always found it to be a great all-rounder and I love a brightening eye cream with my lack of sleep and early mornings that motherhood has imposed on me!
Recently, the Ole Henriksen Banana Bright+ Eye Creme was re-formulated and improved so I just want to tell you about this wonderful eye cream and also about the new formula and what it will do for you!
OLE HENRIKSEN BANANA BRIGHT+ EYE CREME :
This is a brightening eye cream that contains a triple vitamin C complex, real gold, antioxidants and vegan collagen. It has light-reflecting particles that give instant radiance and glow underneath the eye area. It is a fantastic eye cream for dark circles and fine lines. It also sits really well under makeup and will not crease etc. I love how it looks and feels and it always gives me that wide-awake feeling although I am really not!
I can be reactive to eye creams but this one has been absolutely fine after years of use. The new formula I have been using for over a month now without any problems.
KEY BENEFITS:
- Inspired by banana powder used by makeup artists, this eye cream contains light-reflecting yellow mineral pigments to instantly colour-correct and revive tired looking under eyes.
- The crease-resistant, concealer-friendly formula
- Powered by gold complexed vitamin C for improved delivery to the surface layer of your skin.
I just find it a really good all-rounder that I can use both day and night and I love the instant gratification of the brightening particles. It definitely sits well under makeup and sinks in well etc. My only niggle with it is..is it being in a tub – which means you have to dip in to apply and this of course over time can lead to a build up of bacteria BUT you just need to ensure you are only dipping in with clean hands/fingerips or use a little spatula to scoop out the product. It’s not a problem as so many eye creams I love are in a pot and if they are a thicker formula they have to be kept this way. Only lighter eye serums and creams can be dispensed with a pump applicator effectively.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
• Triple vitamin C complex with gold delivery system – a powerhouse vitamin C trio for enhanced brightening and elasticity
• Bioflavonoids – plant-based antioxidant compounds that neutralise free radicals and other environmental aggressors
• Hardy orange extract – an antioxidant-rich plant that thrives in harsh environments; pairs well with vitamin C, which helps brighten skin and reduce the look of dark spots
• Banana powder-inspired pigments – instantly illuminate your complexion
