One product that really impressed me this month is DRMTLGY’s Luminous Eye Corrector. I bought it on a whim after seeing it in an Instagram ad. Sometimes, I’ll see something in an Instagram ad and then go over to Amazon and buy it. And I’m glad I did, as this product is no joke: it works!
My only caveat is marketed as a hydrating tinted eye serum but I don’t find it very hydrating–I definitely need to apply eye cream before I use this. (I do have very dry skin, so maybe you won’t!) But this + eye cream (I’ve been using the new Augustinus Bader rich eye cream) together results in such a brighter undereye area for me. Dark circles don’t have a chance!
DRMTLGY Luminous Eye Corrector Review
I bought this product in shade FAIR. When it comes out of the tube, it’s very light. This was jarring at first. Did I buy the wrong shade? No. But I just massaged it in (I apply all around the eye, getting my eyelid too) until it’s absorbed and wow — the results are fantastic! I think you want it to be a little brighter. Once it’s blended in, it looks very natural.
This works so well thanks to four different shades of peach undertones, which cancel blue-ish under eye tones. So it isn’t just a concealer or an illuminator (love both of those things!); it’s also a color corrector. I like that it has anti-aging ingredients (peptides, snow mushroom, ceramindes). And I love that it has SPF protection too.
These photos are totally unretouched and taken immediately before and after (so the lighting is the same!). Honestly, I feel a little self-conscious as I don’t look my best; I was tired and still waking up! But I wanted to share them because . . . they show the difference; and also: real life! I am 43 and have fine lines around my eyes and that is okay. I like that the product works with my fine lines (it doesn’t settle in or look cakey).
