StriVectin 360° Tightening Eye Serum promises “instantly smoothing and lifting results for the eye area” – and it delivers! I am not a proponent of plastic surgery and therefore I longed for a firming eye serum that didn’t sting and offered instantly noticeable results.

The instructions for this tightening serum are to apply twice per day, both a.m. and p.m., by lightly patting into the corners, upper lid, and under the eyes. I tried this technique and it was so impressive that I wanted to share my review with you.

* Week one: I instantly felt a cooling sensation upon application and saw a reduction in puffiness in the eye area. It seemed to send my under eye “baggage” packing!

* Week Four: My eyes looked brighter and more refreshed. They appeared to have more clarity and less darkness underneath.

* Week Eight: I saw a visible lift and my lids did not appear as droopy. My eyeliner seemed to glide on more effortlessly with less need for touchup the remainder of the day. It was also a pleasure to wake up with a bright-eyed appearance prior to applying concealer or any other cosmetics.

There are impressive “before and after” pictures on the StriVectin website that will immediately make you want to get your hands on this product. I consider it to be a non-invasive eye lift in a tube. It has a cooling metal applicator which perks up the eye area upon application.

It is paraben free and non-comedogenic, thereby deemed safe for those of us with sensitive skin.

Forgo or delay the expensive surgical eye lift that always carry a risk of potential for complications until after you give this product a try. At the very least, you will notice improvement in the firmness and tightness of your eye area.

This serum sells for $ 69.00 and StriVectin offers free standard shipping on orders of $ 50.00 or more on their website: StriVectin.com and available at Nordstrom.
