As much as i have loved the Vichy line so far, this one was a fail for me. I really don't feel that any sort of eye balm ever works on me since I've been blessed with my moms bags (thanks mom). All in all, the product applied nicely but I didn't notice any difference.
I got this product for free as part of the Vichy and ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. What I write here is honest and my own.
So, I have VERY dark circles on both my eyes since forever and I have high expectations on this product. I guess this is not specialized for this issue because I have not noticed any changes at the dark areas around my eyes, though the puffiness has improved and it looks less tired at the end of the day.
I don't know if I can recommend this, but if you're just looking to maintain your healthy skin and has no issues, this might be good for you.
I did not find a significant difference in the area around my eyes after using this product for 4 weeks. I liked that it did not sting or irritate the sensitive area around my eyes that I am normally nervous to put product on. But I found that my eye make up did not go on well after putting on the eye balm, as the products went on as if my skin was oily (even though it did not appear to be).
Note: I #gotitfree to try out in exchange for an honest review.
The eye balm didn't have the best packaging. It felt like cheap plastic for the price compared to the other items in the line. I did like the pump top and you only need about 1 pump for both eyes. The formula was hydrating and didn't cause any issue with my skin however I didn't feel like this product made any difference to my under eye area. I have bags and dark circles and used this product for a month with no real changes. The scent was very refreshing and the formula did feel good under my eyes but I don't think I would repurchase this item. I would want a product that gives me more results especially for the price.

Thank you Chickadvisor and Vichy for sending me this product!!!!
Ive been using this eye balm twice daily for a couple of weeks now, and aside from the hydration i do not see much difference in regards to my eyebags and how puffy my eyes are in the morning. In fact i feel like my eyes look even puffier after using it! however, it is very light and hydrating which is nice, and my makeup seems to sit will with it. So i would recommend this for those who have dehydrating skin, or are starting out with eyecream and just want to start keeping the area hydrated and creating a routine. but if you already have targeted concerns, i wont recommend this product.
I received this free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, it did hydrate my eyes but I have very stubborn dark circles. I found it made a slight difference with my dark circles, I have yet to find any product to get rid of my dark circles completely but this did make them less visible under concealer. I would purchase this as it is the only eye product that I have found that absorbs quickly and does make some of a difference. I would recommend it to a friend.
Vichy Aqualia Thermal Awakening Eye Balm was the third component of the skin regime I have had the pleasure of trying and reviewing. I've never really tried an eye balm before, this is new for me.
I would have to say that this is the least favourite of the products I have tried by Vichy. I like the way it feels when I first put it on, but don't really find a positive difference in the appearance of bags or tiredness in my eyes.
I did find for the first week or two that my eyes felt heavy all the time, very tired feeling and that in the morning I would have more of a crustiness to my eyes, they felt mildly irritated. To deal with this I reduced the amount of balm I was using and moved it away from my eye some to accommodate for the discomfort. This worked well and I can use it without ill effect now.
I will continue to use it for the foreseeable future and continue to monitor whether there is an improvement in the appearance of my eyes. I hope to be able to return and add a more positive review of the Eye Balm as I have found the other Vichy Aqualia Thermal products to be excellent.
I am all about finding products that help boost the appearance of hydration and softer/smoother skin around my eyes. I was really looking forward to trying this out. It feels nice when it's applied and it's quite light, which I love. It does provide some hydration, but the results were quite minimal compared to my current eye cream. For the price though, compared to my high-end cream, it's decent, especially if you're looking for more of a "cooling and soothing" effect.

I enjoyed reviewing this eye cream from Vichy. I usually use another brand so it was nice to try something different. To start off, the packaging was a bit of a pain. It took me a while to get any product out. I love the smell of it. Not too strong. I'm definitely more on the sensitive side when it comes to beauty products and I had no reaction to this which was great. I wasn't a fan of the texture of this product. I found that it didn't absorb well into the skin and felt greasy. When I did my makeup it would get stuck it it which was annoying. All in I probably would buy something else from Vichy but not this product. Good thing I got to review it first!
I love the way this product feels around the sensitive area around my eyes. It really does vibrate and lifts the skin area, I would definitely use this again.
