BENTON FERMENTATION EYE CREAM REVIEW

September 18, 2023

Assalamualaikum and hi Cloudees!

Lots of people claimed that eye cream is nothing but an expensive moisturizer, but still, I honestly need it as my skin is dry type and using face moisturizer around my eyes stings and sometimes makes my eyes teary). I mentioned how I cannot live with eye cream on my other blog post and Benton Fermentation Eye Cream is on my top 3 list but I never really made a post on this eye cream. So, here we go!



||     ABOUT THE BRAND                  

Originated in South Korea, this brand is actually inspired from the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" where Benjamin grows younger with time. Benton wishes to 'turn back the time' of its users' skin and they strives to give the high quality, healthy and trustworthy cosmetics with reasonable price and excluding harmful ingredients.

This brand actually pays a lot of attention and work to be a sustainable brand. Their packaging are all recyclable and eco-friendly, they use biodegradable tape and even the ink for the product label is made from healthy soy ink.

And comes the best part.....

Benton products are certified vegan, PETA cruelty free, dermatologically tested and clean beauty. It means that their products do not contains ingredients from animal, does not conduct test on animals (animal cruelty-free), and they use minimal ingredients that are proven to work on your skin!




||     BENTON FERMENTATION EYE CREAM                  

This eye cream is quite popular and it has been on the market for years. I honestly tried this eye cream as I saw this guy on tiktok who has a very very healthy-looking skin and he always rave about this eye cream and said that it was holy grail (sorry, I forgot his tiktok name TT~TT). I've tried several of items he reviewed and since I agree on most of his reviews, I think there is no harm in giving this eye cream a try.


This eye cream is a hydrating eye cream that brightens and firms the eye area while getting rid of your wrinkles. Its texture is quite thick when squeezed out of the tube, but it feels very light and absorbs really well. Like other eye cream, it can be used anywhere on your face especially at the area with fine lines. It's also perfect for sensitive skin too.

||     TEXTURE & HOW TO USE                  

The texture is quite thick compared to other eye cream I've tried before, but it does not feel heavy when applied to the skin. I have purchased several tubes of it, and it is safe to say that this is the eye cream that I keep going back to because I really like it.

Here's how my skincare step, up to eye cream:
    i. Cleanse
    ii. Toner
    iii. Essence
    iv. Serum
    v. Eye cream

tried to squeeze it & make zig-zag pattern but it's thick & refused to cooperate for the sake of the picture. hahah!

Apply suitable amount to your fingers and use your ring fnger to dab / massage it to your eye area. I usually squeeze around 1 finger-length, and divide it between my eyes. You can add more or use less according to your preference. I use this every time after cleansing and toner. I literally never skip my eye cream, especially at night and before I apply my makeup.


||     MY REVIEW                  

My skin type: Dry
Disclaimer: I bought this with my own money thus my reviews are not sponsored, and it is my honest thought. 

Pros:
❤   A little product goes a long way
❤   Does not sting my eyes
❤   Really, really hydrating
❤   Absorbs well
❤   Not sticky
❤   Very lightweight
❤   Unscented, no smell detected
❤   Can be used on other areas especially the ones with wrinkles
❤   Reasonable price and last quite long
❤   Squeeze tube - release perfect amount every time
❤   It works!


Cons:
☁   None so far


expiry date stamped on the tube

Price and where to grab?
☆   Price: RM89.66 for 30g on their Shopee official but I got mine for RM 48.15 from HERE (worry not, I often get my K-beauty supply here and so far they're all authentic)

☆   It's a really good eye cream and for RM48.15, it really lasts long. I use it to the last drop and since it's in a plastic tube packaging, I usually just cut the tube with scissors when I'm unable to squeeze it anymore. No skincare is wasted here, especially good ones like this!

☆   I personally think that this is the best eye cream I've ever lay my hands on based on 3 factors - its functions, long-lasting, and very affordable.


Till then, thank you for reading!
