Fab Find of the Week: Balance Me Vitamin C Brightening Eye Serum

This has gone down an absolute storm at Beauty Bible HQ, with rave reviews from both Sarah (who is a true connoisseur of products targeting puffy eyes), and Jo (who rarely suffers, but still doesn't like looking tired).

Sitting alongside Balance Me's vitamin C-powered serum for the whole face is this just-launched, targeted treatment for the under-eye area, harnessing ingredients including green caffeine, elderberry flower and our old chum hyaluronic acid, which is just so, so good for delivering a skin drink.

It feels wonderfully cooling on skin, offering instant relief – but it isn't over-rich. Because of that, Jo applies hers relatively close to the eyes themselves, as she finds the product doesn't 'travel' and irritate (which happens with cream formulations). Meanwhile, because there's a touch of reflective mica in the serum, it also slightly minimises shadows, from the moment it's applied. (And that's most welcome.)

See below for a product close-up – and meanwhile, it’s an A+ for this vitamin C treatment, from us.
