Hello everyone !!
This is my entry for the giveaway contest. Today I am reviewing the Fabindia Aloe Vera Under Eye Gel.




What the Company Claims: This unique formula contains aloe vera gel that reduces puffiness and revives tired looking eyes. Regular use helps reduce dark circles and prevents wrinkles.

Price:INR 150 for 25ml.

Ingredients:Purified Water, Aloe Vera Extract, Glycerine, Triethano- lamine, Carbopol, Methyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben.

Availability: Fabindia outlets and most of the online shopping sites. I purchased it from their outlet in Inorbit Mall, Vashi.

Expiry: 36months from date of mfg


My experience:
It comes in a tiny jar packaging which I consider as a negative point. I hate to dip my fingers into jars especially if it’s something that I have to apply on my face. Also the tub looks too cheap, seems like it might break the moment it falls down. The product is a clear transparent gel that has a mild fragrance and spreads easily but leaves a sticky feeling behind. So I avoid putting it during the day time.  It’s been a month since I am using this (only once at night) and more than half the tub is remaining so you get a large quantity for the price which is a good thing.



Now does it do its job???
My under- eye puffiness and dark circles have reduced but not significantly. The under eye skin is a bit even toned now and looks fresh and hydrated. It keeps the under-eye skin moisturized which is a plus- point, other than that, no significant reduction in dark circles or puffiness.



Pros-
  • Keeps the under-eye skin hydrated.
  • Smell is mild so won’t bother many people.
  • Small amount is required, hence will last a long time.


Cons-
  • Leaves a sticky feel, hence ideal for night time.
  • Does not significantly reduce dark circles or puffiness.
  • Presence of parabens.  


Conclusion: I might try something else rather than repurchasing this. Something that has no parabens and that does its job also.

Rating: 3/5
