Yes To Coconut Ultra Hydrating Overnight Eye Balm Review & Swatches
Yes To Coconut Ultra Hydrating Overnight Eye Balm ($15.99) is a new Ulta exclusive eye cream or eye balm that launched with the Yes to Coconuts Spring 2016 Collection.
I have to say the newest Yes to Coconut Collection additions are a very pleasant selection of products for drier skin girls and guys like myself. Of course, I got really excited when I saw they would be launching an eye balm plus it is loaded with fantastic moisturizing ingredients like shea butter and argan oil.
Here’s a look!
Yes To Coconut Ultra Hydrating Overnight Eye Balm will be available in a 0.5 pump jar for $15.99 (or cheaper if it pops on sale) exclusively at Ulta and Ulta.com. Hopefully at some point they’ll launch it at other locations but as of now Ulta is the spot to grab this one.
I love this stuff for one reason, it doesn’t promise me the world. It’s a one trick pony that clearly states it what it is meant for that being moisture nothing more, nothing less. The brand doesn’t spend a whole bunch of time bending your ear with promises to depuff your puffy eyes, erase your dark circles, eliminate your fine lines, etc…etc…
None of that.
They simply tell you this is an “indulgent” treatment with moisturizing ingredients. Thank you Yes to Coconuts for being so honest. Their theory and mentality, just like my own, is to treat your finer lines and wrinkles with moisture. Lots and lots of moisture.
This contains virgin coconut oil, shea butter, and argan oil. It has a whipped light fluffy consistency that absorbs in a snap under eyes. I think balm could potentially be misleading as at first I thought this was some sort of eye stick. After opening it I realized it was in a pump and in that case I thought maybe it was thicker. Yanno balm!? So I thought thick, creamy. Nope, it’s very light and fluffy and that’s fine by me as it absorbed in a snap.
I wouldn’t say it was heavily moisturizing for a night eye cream but it still softens, smooths, and hydrates the under eye very, very nicely. I’ve taken to use it as a day eye cream because it wears well under concealer and provides just the right amount of moisture so my finer lines look a heck of a lot better.
All in all Yes To Coconut Ultra Hydrating Overnight Eye Balm excels at what it was developed for, moisture! This is a lightweight, lightly moisturizing eye cream that should work great for those with normal to moderately dry eyes. Personally I have pretty dry eyes but I like using a lighter eye cream in the day versus the heavier ones I prefer in the evening. Although this formula is marketed as a nightly eye cream I like it as a nice, light daily eye cream. For sensitive users it does have a soft coconut milk smell.
As I said I love the brand markets it for one thing and one thing only and it works great at what it was formulated to do!
Good stuff.
