When it comes to expert skincare guidance, there are few people as knowledgeable as ‘Queen of Skincare’ Caroline Hirons. A familiar face on ITV’s This Morning and Lorraine, the beauty guru, aged 57, is frequently dispelling myths and offering invaluable advice on various routines.
The blogger-turned-businesswoman launched her brand Skin Rocks in 2022 to considerable acclaim, and now, the brand has launched a 20% off sale on almost everything on their site in honor of the founder’s birthday this week. Amongst her range of scientifically-formulated skincare products is The Eye Cream, which has been reduced from £70 to £56 for a limited time.
The Eye Cream is clinically proven to deliver remarkable immediate and long-lasting results. The fatigue-combating, wrinkle-reducing and collagen-boosting formula addresses all eye-related concerns, making it particularly well-suited to mature skin.
The age-defying product is designed to substantially diminish the depth of fine lines, wrinkles, puffiness and under-eye bag volume, while smoothing, hydrating and firming the delicate skin surrounding the eyes. The tried-and-tested formula represents three years of innovation distilled into a single product.
It is crafted with tripeptide and a microalgae blend that smooths and enhances the appearance of skin texture on lids and crow’s feet. Winter cherry and a cucumber seed blend work to reinforce the skin barrier, minimising the visibility and depth of fine lines and wrinkles, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Persian silk tree bark protects and strengthens the skin while helping to counteract signs of fatigue. Finally, diamond powder serves to illuminate and brighten the skin surrounding the eye area.
The Eye Cream should be applied following cleansing, prior to serums and moisturisers. It has been formulated for all skin types and has undergone a rigorously controlled clinical patch test, making it appropriate for those with sensitive skin.
Meanwhile, a 15ml pot of Trinny London’s Take Back Time Eye Treatment costs £66. It is formulated to visibly diminish lines and wrinkles surrounding the eyes, while also tackling eyelid sagging as the ingredients stimulate the skin’s natural regeneration process.
Alternatively, a tube of Absolute Collagen’s Deep Lift Eye Cream is priced at £50. A richly hydrating formula enriched with niacinamide and squalane for visibly firmer and brighter skin, the eye cream minimises the appearance of dark circles, puffiness and fine lines.
Back at Skin Rocks, The Eye Cream boasts an overall star-rating of 4.8 out of five based on 737 reviews. One delighted shopper said: “Love this product. Silky smooth and sinks in beautifully. I have used it for a few weeks now and I do see a difference.”
A second wrote: “Impressed. The skin around my eyes looks healthier and smoother therefore the wrinkles look less. I would buy again.”
“This cream is unreal,” a third added. “I’ve always avoided using eye creams thinking they’d make my bags worse but it’s totally the opposite, and I’m not afraid to use plenty. My eyes are finally getting the treatment they deserve.”
One shopper, however, wasn’t quite as enthusiastic about The Eye Cream and awarded it a three-star review. They said: “I had high hopes for this product but, having used it for almost four weeks, I’ve yet to see any improvement in puffiness. Disappointed.”
“I gave this three stars purely due to the packaging,” another customer noted. “I have to consistently tap the bottom to release the product. The eye cream is good, I haven’t seen any results yet but I’ve only used it for one week.”
Nevertheless, someone else adored their recent Skin Rocks purchase, commenting: “This is the only product I’ve ever used for my under eyes that has made a noticeable difference. My skin feels noticeably tighter and, ok, the summer sun may have given it a bit of help but my dark circles also seem to have improved. Also, bonus points, it doesn’t sting my eyes in the same way alternatives have.”
Another five-star review states: “I have been using the eye cream for about three weeks and love it. I can see a difference in the fine lines and puffiness under my eyes. It has a fantastic texture and absorbs so easily leaving my skin feeling smooth. Along with The Gel Cleanser and The Moisturiser these products have transformed my skin care routine. My only regret is that I didn’t start using them sooner.”
The Skin Rocks sale sees 20% off almost everything until Friday, July 31. Plus, anyone who spends £120 will get a free surprise gift worth £50.
