Mineral Eye Gel



Adovia Mineral Eye Gel

with Dead Sea Salt & Minerals, Vitamin C, and Vitamin A Retinol


Adovia Eye Cream - Powerful Eye Gel for Eye Puffiness, Dark Circles and Wrinkles by Adovia Mineral Skin Care - Reduce Appearance of Fine Lines & Wrinkles Around the Eyes - with Dead Sea Salt & Minerals, Vitamin C and Vitamin A Retinol
Taken from the Amazon listing for this product:

So the only negative I have about Tomoson is that I don't have unlimited time to write my reviews.  Especially for this kind of product, it would be nice to be able to really evaluate how this product has affected my under-eye circles, puffiness, etc.  I really can't speak much to those claims (made on the Amazon listing linked above), mainly because I have started my first ever job and have been working too much in order to stock the entire store and get it open, but I will be happy to tell you my general thoughts regardless.

So I feel like the first thing to point out is that this product is listed for $42 but on sale for $29 on Amazon.  While this isn't unreasonable compared to many eye creams/gels on the market, particularly the higher end ones in which you are looking at a price tag usually over $100, I still wouldn't want to pay that if I was looking to purchase this eye gel.  The size is not bad at all- I've used this a few times and have barely made a dent- but I just hate seeing that price.  

Regardless, you're probably more interested in the quality of the gel, aren't you?  I want to first make sure that all of you are clear on the fact that this is a GEL, not a CREAM.  I must not have been paying attention when I first looked at the product because when I arrived I was a little surprised to see that it was a gel.  But I think after using it I really like that it is a gel instead of a cream, mainly because I really think this product would work perfectly if you were interested in putting it in the refrigerator and using it cold.  Talk about getting rid of under-eye circles/darkness/puffiness!!  Unfortunately I have not taken the time to explore this method further, but I hope to in the future and really recommend that you try it to.

There's not much else to say about it- the product is pretty much just a normal eye gel. One thing I do want to strongly warn you about is getting any of this stuff in your eyes- it BURNS!  It seems like every time I use this I get some in my eyes and have to wash them out to get rid of the sting; but again, that's probably just user error.  I don't notice that my eye area is more moisturized or anything the next morning after using this, but it feels nice to put on before bed as part of my skincare routine (its much too hot in NC right now for a morning skincare routine- I feel like everything just melts off my face).

All in all, I have to say this is another O.K. product from Adovia.  I still think convenience is a factor that has to be considered (can't find this in a Sephora or Ulta), but I really find no faults with the product itself either.  I didn't mention this in my other Adovia post, but their shipping was very prompt and I had no problems on the ordering end.

I did also write a review on Amazon that sums up my thoughts that I have presented here. If you would like to check that out, here is the link:  http://www.amazon.com/review/R155FQEOEJKS69

Have you tried this eye gel?  Have any other questions about my experience with this product?  Want to suggest a product for me to try/review?  Leave me a comment down below!  In the coming days I will have a couple more reviews popping up on my blog, so please check back for those!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
