Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller: Review

I am part of an online site where they will send me free items in exchange for me getting the word out about the product, so once in awhile I find on my doorstep a mystery box that I am more than thrilled to slice open to see what is inside. This time I was sent a package containing a new product by Garnier.

Garnier is one of my top favorite companies for hair and skin care products, so getting something from them to try was pretty neat. In the box, a small green and black package stating it was Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller. My first reaction was that the product was way too small, however after opening the package and seeing it, and holding it in my hands I realized that there was more than enough product inside of the small green plastic container to last for quite a few months, even with daily use.

Appearance:
 
Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller comes in a neat stand up hard green plastic tube. There is a small black twist off cap. Underneath the cap you have a metal rolling ball, which is used for easier application.

Promises:
 
Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller's name alone basically tells you what it was designed to do. Besides renewing your skin though it will also reduce fine lines, dark circles, and it will relax the skin making the area around your eyes look rejuvenated, bright, and new.

According to the box, your eyes will INSTANTLY look renewed and refreshed. After one weeks time with daily use your eyes will have reduced puffiness, and reduced dark circles. Using it for longer will increase the reduction of dark circles and puffiness.

I so far have been using Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller for around 2 weeks now, and I'm here to talk about my results... or lack of.

My Use:
 
First I will say that the metal roller ball is by far my favorite feature about the product. When I rolled the metal ball across the surface of my skin it immediately gave off this comforting cooling sensation that I really liked.

The serum comes through the metal ball and allows you to have complete control over where it is applied. No messes here!

One issue I did have though was having to tip the tube and shake it to sometimes get the serum to come out of the roller ball. It gets stuck and won't roll otherwise. Doing this though will waste some of the serum, because it allows a lot of it to come through when you shake or squeeze it.

Instant Results?
 
I wouldn't say so. Even though it was promised I'd have instant renewed and refreshed eyes, that was far from the truth. I applied and massaged in with the roller ball a decent amount of the serum, and saw nothing different.

The serum itself is clear, and although it feels great on your skin, is oil free, and absorbs really quickly, it didn't do anything magical in an instant. Scratch off that promise.

After a week of using Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller, the results were there, and my dark circles were slightly lessened, but still it was not dramatic and likely I am the only one who sees a difference because I want to see a difference.

After two weeks though I will say that my dark circles are close to being written off as gone for good. Improved sleep I am sure added to the results though. Puffiness is not something I suffer with greatly, but occasionally I get puffy eyes from a lack of sleep.

Overall:
 
Although I am not thrilled with the product, it did work slightly at helping reduce dark circles under my eyes, and if dark circles is something you suffer with, I'd recommend you give it a try. At $12.99 it's definitely worth trying. Combined with a good sleep pattern this may work wonders for some.
