If you've been following this blog for a while you know I'm a huge fan of Omorovicza. The Hungarian brand uses thermal water as the base for it's products. There is something magical about those Hungarian thermal waters. Rich in minerals like magnesium and calcium this thermal water just really agrees with my skin. Up next to talk about is the Gold Eye Lift. Details per Omorovicza:
This nourishing, anti-aging, gold eye cream reduces the appearance of wrinkles and renews the appearance of youthful elasticity. It also brightens tone and helps to undo sun damage in the delicate eye contour.
Key Benefits
- Tense the skin in the delicate eye contour throughout the day with the sequential release of chicory root fructo-oligosaccharide.
- Heal micro-damage and strengthen skin with a powerful anti-inflammatory, colloidal Gold.
- Diminish dark circles with anti-coagulant vitamin K.
- Resurface fine lines and wrinkles, and reverse sun damage with vitamin A (retinol).
- Reduce puffiness with arnica.
- Enhance skin tone and help reduce the appearance of age spots with Vitamin C. It also boosts the synthesis of collagen and elastin to help restore elasticity.
- For renewed elasticity and vitality, strengthen dermo-proteins such as elastin and collagen with polypeptides (palmitoyl tripeptide and caprooyl tetrapeptide).
- Retexture the lipid matrix to restore suppleness with ceramide.
- Leave skin firmer, more supple and younger-looking Healing Concentrate™ delivers minerals deep into the skin.
This eye cream is the most hydrating and moisturizing of the three Omorovicza offers. I've tried all three eye creams now. It combines vitamin A or retinol with vitamin K and vitamin C, arnica, colloidal gold, ceramide and peptides for a multi-targeted eye cream. This anti-aging cream is good for dark circles and loss of firmness. Gold is anti-inflammatory, vitamin K is usually in creams for dark circles. Vitamin K is a fat soluble vitamin that plays a big role in the body's coagulation. In essence vitamin K helps keep your body from excessive bleeding and bruising which is why it helps with dark circles. Arnica is anti-inflammatory and helps accelerate the healing process. I actually have a big tube of Arnica gel I use for post massage because of it's healing properties. Retinol is your anti-aging powerhouse working on fine lines and wrinkles, it can also help reduce dark circles by thickening the skin and reducing the transparency of the skin under the eyes.
The texture is a thicker cream and it has a pale yellow color. The scent is very minimal & very Omorovicza--which is always a light non-offensive scent. It's always pleasant, light and never heavy. I love the glass pump packaging. The pump has an inner bag so the cream is essentially in an air free environment. This is the most moisturizing of the three eye creams. It's perfect for night use. I would consider this a medium weight eye cream. It's not the heaviest nor is it anywhere near being a light cream. You'll find this to be enough hydration for overnight.
Overall, I found this to be a very pleasant eye cream to use. It was hydrating, nourishing and it worked. It works within reason. I say that for all eye creams because I always think we have this expectation that an eye cream can fix all of our dark circle issues from not sleeping or bad habits like too much wine. I'm guilty of both and I know a cream can't fix my bad habits. I would purchase a bottle as it was well done.
