Review (4/5): Incredible fragrance. Gentle and moisturizing the eye area.
This is a great moisturizer for the eye area. It comes in elegant white packaging with gold trim. Inside the box is an amber bottle with pump dispenser to keep the contents safe from light and prevent contamination. The cream itself is lotion like in consistency, pastel orange in color, and distributes easily and is absorbed quickly. It is middle range in on the heaviness scale (gel like being light and emollients being heavy). It does not leave a residue per say, but it does leave your skin feeling velvety and protected which made me feel like it helped my skin retain moisture. It has a fruity fragrance that contains sweet orange notes. It did not sting my dry and sensitive skin. Alcohol, paraben, and silicone free. Made in the USA from an impressive list of botanical (see complete ingredient list below). This is the fourth Valentia product I have tried and I have been happy with all of them. I plan on keeping an eye on this brand.
