From vitamin C to retinoids, there are many ingredients in an eye cream that are known to banish dark circles and smile lines, but have you heard of diamond powder and lime pearl?
Australian skincare brand Alpha H’s Liquid Gold Firming Eye Cream utilises the aforementioned ingredients and peptides to plump, brighten and smooth the delicate eye area. Currently 25% off at LookFantastic, skincare fans can buy this at £48.74 instead of £64.99.
The award-winning product needs to be applied close to the lashline and under the brows and absorbs quickly. Some customers said they have seen improvement around the eyes, leaving the skin “soft and wrinkle-free” and others said it will be a “regular purchase” for them.
What makes the Alpha H Liquid Gold Firming Eye Cream special is the three hero ingredients – Australian lime pearl, diamond powder and Eyeseryl acetyl tetrapeptide-5.
Lime pearl, also known as caviar lime extract, is a natural source of AHA to gently exfoliate and brighten skin; diamond powder scatters reflective light to diminish the appearance of fine lines while the patented tetrapeptides reduces the appearance of puffiness and darkness from under eyes.
One customer has converted to a firm believer of Alpha H and said: “I discovered it a few years back and it knocked the socks off the other eye creams I’d been using (Estee Lauder, Clarins etc). Never looked back, it glides on smoothly and no greasy residue – and it works a dream. This is my go-to and will keep buying again and again.”
A second echoed: “I have been using this cream for seven years and cannot imagine my skincare routine without it. It is light, non-irritating and does improve skin quality.”
A few others mentioned that they loved the applicator, which helps them to put the cream on without getting too messy. One dubbed it as “a little tube of magic” for reducing the appearance of eye bags and dark circles.
But others were less impressed and struggled to see a positive change after using the eye cream. “Not seeing any results as yet but this one is a newbie for me, I do like the way it gets absorbed into the under eye area,” they added.
