This review is for the Cura C face cream.
I have normal skin and thought why not a little vitamin C. I don't understand this moisturiser: it goes on smoothly and but my face doesn't feel moisurized. instead, it looked a little drier and whiter. I touched my face and felt a slippery film sitting on top. Maybe it's meant for oily skin but it doesn't say so in the product info. It is a thick cream.
Update: (added one lippie ) It is June but the temperature is 100F and my AC sorta broke....I am washing my face a lot and my usual moisturizers seem too much for this extreme heat. So I reached for the Cura -C treatment. Surprisingly it made sense to me today: Gel cream was absorbed quickly, and this time my skin felt soothed and softened. Nice!
Well it helped me to understand this product a little: It seems to help skin that's oily on the surface but dry underneath, which is how I felt with the sweating and access cleansing. I can't say I will repurchase but I am glad I found use for my large sample : sweaty days!

Background: I am 25 and have been using skincare products more than 8 years. My skin in comb to oily (in heat/humid climate).
I have used Cura-C eye cream for almost a year. I like its silky texture once glided on the skin. The manufacturer claming it as water-free seems convincing and pleasant. It does not irritate my eyes, compared to Clinique's anti-gravity eye cream, which made my eyes watery after a few min of appication. It had helped moisturize, reduced the fine lines. The first tube did a great impression. For the second tube, i do not feel any improvement or much difference. The product comes in tube which is easy to use and travel friendly. After I use up my second tube, i wont repurchase. I am looking for a new product line.

This treatment comes in the gel form. I like it that it goes on very smooth on my skin. It has never irritated my eye area. I think it is supposed to performe a better job brighten the undereye areas and reduce the dark circles as it contains vitamin C.
It is just another average eye gel for me or may be somehow it is just my problem. I have never liked any eye treatment that is in the gel form. The cream type always performs better on me.

The name on the package is Cura-C Anhydrous Vitamin C Eye Treatment. A colorless thick cream, kinda petroleum jelly like. Looks like it would be greasy, but goes on oddly non-oily. The cream feels ultra silky smooth when applying, but doesn't seem to be absorbed and just sits on the skin then dries up to a smooth film. Maybe because how it's anhydrous? However, I don't feel it's moisturizing enough, and absolutely not good under concealer (too drying and the concealer creases badly). This is a pretty weird eye cream I'd say, will not buy again.

This is my new HG for my flaky eyelids and dark circles. Goes on unbelivably smooth and silky, doesn't irritate, and works even on the dryest Midwestern winter days. A little goes a very long way, which is good because it's very, very expensive. Still, completely worth the cost!
