Questions & Answers for Tarte Maracuja C-Brighter™ Eye Treatment

Question
Is this product enough moisture by itself?
This product is called a "treatment", so is it considered an add-on product to a skincare regime or is it moisturizing enough to be a stand-alone eye cream?

Yes! It is very hydrating and soothing and does work really well on its own.

I think it serves perfectly well as a stand alone eye cream. It might be labeled as a treatment to suggest it does more than just protect. It's very moisturizing without being gloppy, sticky or oily.

I use this as a stand-alone eye cream and it gives methe right amount of moisture. Try going to a sephora store and asking for a sample so you can try it at home

Question
Does this eye cream contain shimmery sparkles or glitter?
One of the reviews I've read for this product stated that she noticed that this particular eye cream contained shimmery glitter like particles when she took a closer look after applying it on her hand. Is this true?

No glitter or sparkles of any kind, though it does impart a natural luminosity (characteristic of freshly moisturized skin).

There is absolutely no sparkly ingredients to this product. The one reason I love this so much is that it doesn't irritate my eyes. Honestly, this is the best eye cream i ever used. It doesn't sting when applying nor does it irratate my eyes!

answer 4
The scent is faint, and hard to describe. I can only smell it when I make an effort to. The scent is undetectable once applied. I will say that it smells nothing like the cooking oil scent of the maracuja oil.

It is extremely faint, I can't detect much of a scent to it. I'm sensitive to strong perfumes and scents, but this product doesn't really have one.

I think you may be a little young for this product, but visit your local sephora an ask for a sample. That way you can try it at home and judge for yourself if it feels comfortable or not. It's always about how a product feels, not what the age labels say :]

Yes, I wish I had it @ 15 :/ I've had dark circles all my life. Now that I'm older and I have wrinkles, sagging skin, and bags under my eyes, years later I find this. You're never too young to fight aging. Like it or not, even in teenage years you age everyday, so fight it every step of the way!

This is a good product for anyone at any age. The ingredients help brighten up the under-eye area while keeping the skin hydrated and helping with preventing wrinkles or reducing current wrinkles. I started using eye creams when I was a teenager and I wish this product was available at that time, it's an excellent product.

Easily 6 months, if not longer. I only use it at night, though you can use it in the morning, too. Yes, it's a tiny jar, but you also use only a tiny bit of product.

If used properly, the jar should last you at least 3 months. I use it morning and night, so if you only use it once a day, it should last a little longer.

Where's the maracuja oil in ingredient list?
I was looking at the ingredient list, and couldn't find the maracuja oil. What else is it called? I saw the other oils, the vitamin C (and 2 alcohols - what are they for-not being mean, just curious). Is there a "generic" name for maracuja oil? I do use maracuja oil daily, and love it!

Passiflora Edulis Seed Oil

"maracuja" is just their fancy marketing name for passion fruit oil!

just a tip, you can buy good quality passion fruit oil from a health food store and it's the exact same as maracuja oil, i have tried all sorts.
