Review : Bio Nova Eye Wrinkle Treatment.

This came in Decembers Glossybox, I didnt receive it but I'm a sucker for eye-creams so I done a swap with Zoe.

Product Description And Benefits:
The biological activity of the presented product is adjusted to the gender (female), age group (25-39).
Bio Nova's Nano Skin Tech treatment solution for the eye area prevents signs of premature aging. Continued use diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improves elasticity, skin texture and enhances the skin barrier ability. Visably improves skin viscoelasticity in eye area by 28-35% and reduces signs of skin aging. Contains multiple Nano-Complexes with short chain Polypeptides, bioflavonoids, essential vitamins, antioxidants, enzymes, glycoproteins and nucleic acids.


Huge claims! I was really excited to get my hands on the wee pot, I dont have wrinkles but can definately notice a change starting to happen around my eye area and as a result, I am now the eye cream queen. I'll try anything that promises to prevent wrinkles but my main areas of concern are dark circles, puffiness, and bags due to a messed up sleeping pattern.



This eye cream retails at £43 so yes, I was expecting to see some improvement.

How To Apply:
Apply small quantities of product around eye area, upper eyelid, lower eyelid, external eye area and temples. Take a pin drop amount of cream, rub it in between fingers and gently press it against the skin. Use morning and night. Make-up (preferably oil free make-up) can be used 5 minutes after product application.

This eye cream is heavily perfumed, theres been a few times my eyes have streamed with tears after application. I really dont get why an eye cream needs to be scented, unless its a result of trying to cover up the true smell? Wouldnt recommend this for anyone who wears contacts or has sensitive eyes.
After over a month of using this product and I still havent noticed any benefits. I tend to be harder on products which are more expensive and make wild claims. The cons completely outweigh the pros. The only thing I like is the texture. I'll continue to use up the rest of the pot and edit this post if theres any improvement but I doubt there will be.



If you've tried this I would love to know your thoughts on it. If I had to rate it out of 10, I'd give it 1/10. Might sound harsh but really, you would get the same non existent results from dabbing thin air under your eyes.

  4. I have very fair skin with early eye wrinkles (I'm 33 with otherwise normal skin but probably more eye wrinkles than expected for my age). I have always looked for value in eye creams, and have tried everything from Chanel to drugstore brands. My main concern now is to use only natural ingredients! I now use the Lady Soma Renewal Serum - it is one of the best serums for the eye. I use it under concealer, which I apply immediately after. I find that the texture of serum helps to blend in the concealer so that everything doesn't gather around the wrinkles.

    I do not find it too greasy for me- it seems to absorb quickly into my skin. I use it at night as well, using slightly more product for night use. I am very happy with Lady Soma for daytime use.

  8. most of the fancy creams with high prices fail to come up to their claims. It is better to go for botox treatment rather than spending hundreds of pounds on these products. For more information about anti-ageing treatment kindly visit http://www.cosmedocs.com/treatments/botox-treatment.php
