Eye Care Experience

Although I can't say that I have a lot of experience with cosmetics, but I could justly say that finding a right product for each individual skin type is somehow a difficult job. And yea, as an cosmetic addict, me too, have the same problem of getting a suitable product for myself. And through my experience, magazines does help, the counter girl does helps, but most of the time, research helps more...of course, going to a specialist would be an better option, but you know, not many of us could afford that...

Lately, my eye care product has reached it's bottom, and I face the same problem as everyone else does. Should I go for the next? Or should I just stay with the same product...?

The product I'm using currently (that's going to finish), is Origin's Eye Doctor. There's one thing I would really love to comment obout this product, it's refreshing honey dew smell...I really love it...! It's quite a fine product, not too oily, not to dry. And the best thing is, it seems to 'lightened' my under eye bump, they're not that obvious anymore!!! Just one thing...fine lines under my eye seemed to still stay there...well, I don't know what to cause that fine line to be there, but there's just one thing I know for sure, I don't want it to be there!! (They makes me look old...sob sob...) Therefore, this time, I would like to try on an eye product with firming effect with it. Origin's Eye Doctor seems to have just the moisturising effects, and although they worked well, I would just want to move on and try those with firming effects to solve my problem...

After some research done on the net...I think I should give Clarins a shot...

==============

So, the following would be just some comparison of the 2 products...
