Review: Resvology Age Corrective Eye Cream


Today I have a product from Resvology, Age Corrective Eye Cream, which I had received from BrandBacker for review purposes.  Resvology is a company that focuses on anti-aging solutions.  All of Resvology's products contain 4-AR molecule, is basically the only stabilized ester of the widely recognized "youth molecule," resveratrol.  It has a much more greater gene activating actions in-vitro compared to natural resveratrol, and is Resvology's unique patented molecule.


Resvology's 4-AR Molecule helps reignite youthful gene expression and boosts the presence of collagen and elastin in the skin.  The Age Corrective Eye Cream helps minimize wrinkles, puffiness, and dark circles.


It comes in a slender tube holding 0.5 fl. oz/ 15ml.  


I found that one pump or half a pump was actually enough for both of my eyes.  The texture was very smooth and thin, but creamy like a lotion or other eye creams.  It has a smell that reminded me of glue paste for some reason, but that was only when I brought it close to my nose to smell it not when it was applied.  For one 15ml bottle it cost $89, which in my book is pretty pricey since I prefer budget friendly products.  I have used it once in a while and I could feel my skin tensing after I have applied it.  I hope to see bigger results later on down the road. 

  • Vitamins A, E, & C ester neutralize damaging free radicals
  • Panthenol conditions and hydrates
  • Barley, Sandalwood, and Olive extracts help soothe the skin and renew natural moisture barrier
To keep in touch with Resvology:
Thanks for stopping by my blog and I hope you have a wonderful day.

Review: OSLO Cosmetics - Meteoroid, Sextens, Pictor, Milky Way, Lyra, Aquaii, Grus, Pyxis, Andromeda, & Eye Bond Primer Wand


Hello darlings!  Today I have several products from OSLO Cosmetics to share with you, which was received for review purposes.  Awhile ago Joyce, the owner and creator of OSLO Cosmetics, had contacted me asking if I would like to review some of her products.  Of course I said "Yes," and I am glad that I have done so.  Just like me and many others, Joyce is a makeup junkie.  So yay!  She designed the OSLO Cosmetics line simply because she wanted to share quality products with the world.  Her products are 100% Vegan and cruelty free, not to mention handmade.


The Eye Bond Primer Wand: $7 (may be seen in the picture above) comes in a clear tube, that is sort of lipgloss like.  It has a sponge-doe applicator, and a clear base that is sticky to help hold on to the loose eyeshadow a bit more.  What is also nice about the Eye Bond Primer Wand is that it will also condition your skin as you wear it.  All of the swatches for the loose eyeshadows were applied over the Eye Bond Primer Wand.  After playing with OSLO Cosmetics for a few days now and testing the products against my every day errands to just the weather, I discovered the primer really held up the loose eyeshadow I was wearing until it was time to remove it.

I had received two of her blushes: a full size of Pictor, and a sample size of Sextens.  The blushes when purchased come in a 10gram jar and in loose powder form.  Both of the blushes which I have received could be bought as a single for $7 each, or you may purchase it within the Arc Blush Collection (it comes with three other shades: Indi, Gemini, & Equilus).


Pictor:  is a shimmery light pink blush that has gold shimmer within it.  You could either use this as a blush or a highlighter.


Sextens:  is a gorgeous deep matte with a cranberry shade.  You could build up on this product.  I didn't use that much on the swatch so I could show that a little could go a long way.  That goes with a lot of the OSLO Cosmetic products.


Meteoroid:  $4 is one of their Cosmetic Glitters that they carry.  Meteoroid is basically fine gold glitter with holographic tendencies.  For a full size glitter you get it 5 gram jar.  I have something planned for this wonderful glitter later, and will eventually share with you.
