PROS:

I really liked the lightweight dry-oil texture of this eye serum. I was able to use one drop for both eyes and press the remainder onto my neck. Within in couple of days of daily use, I noticed a noticeable smoothing of the skin under my eyes so it is definitely moisturizing. When I massaged this serum under my eyes in the morning, I was pleased to get a nice well-rested look. I cannot say that it was a dramatic de-puffing, but it was a certainly noticeable effect. It has a very deep coffee scent, which I happen to love; however, if you are not a coffee fan you may not be able to handle the roasted aroma. Ive been having so many eye problems lately thanks to over use of contacts and I felt completely comfortable using this product near my eyes. I found no irritation, rashes, or eye issues in the slightest.

CONS:

It's going to sound ridiculous, but the deep orange tint of this oil is probably what strikes me the most strange. It is absolutely gorgeous in the bottle, however, some of the reddish-orange tint does show up on the skin. After a while you no longer notice it, but I'm sure those with fair to light skin tones will be a bit shocked with the tinge of red. I also feel as though I still prefer eye creams and balms to eye oils. It can be a bit difficult to apply concealer shortly after this oil and I need to make sure that it has absorbed really well into the skin.

FIRST IMPRESSION:

Over the course of the three to four weeks that I was regularly using the Budhi Sacha Inchi Eye Nectar, I truly did notice a pleasant change in the skin under my eyes. Everything seemed smoother and more firm. My little fine lines were much less noticeable and some of the dry patches from my eczema were basically invisible. The care that went into blending this formula and the results I saw, make me believe that this serum is an excellent option for those who are just starting to see tiny fine lines or are noticing the very beginning of slackening skin.
