Beginning of this year in January 2016, I went to Generation Beauty LA.

I got a bunch of goodies that I either purchased or got for free. I already reviewed Benefit They're Real! Mascara (top middle), Laneige BB Cushion in Light (top middle), Pixi in Wakeup Wisteria nail polish (bottom right), Too Faced Melted Chocolate in Chocolate Milkshake (bottom middle), NYX Strobe of Genius Illumination Palette (top left), Belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb (top middle), Belif The True Cream Moisturizing Bomb (top middle), and NYX Ombre Blush in Strictly Chic (top left), and Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint in TBT (bottom right).
I receive two products from pur-lisse. For this post, I will review the eye serum.

Thoughts: I have never tried pur-lisse products but I've heard great things about it. For that reason, I was excited to try this product out.
Here's a closer look at the pump.
Here's a swatch of the eye serum on my hand.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there's no noticeable scent whatsoever. I just sniffed the product and there's nothing. Secondly, the packaging is small and adorable. I have to be honest when I first received this, I thought it was a sample size. It's actually the real size. I've been using this for several months now and I'm no where close to finishing the bottle. A little goes a long way with this product! Plus it comes with a pump making it sanitary-safe. Third, the consistency is light and it feels like a lotion. I just pat the product around my eyes, between the eyebrows, forehead, and the smile lines. My skin absorbs this product quickly and easily. Since I have dry skin, it always needs to be hydrated. With that said, I still think it's great for all skin types especially people who want to prevent aging. Once the product is absorbed, the skin feels hydrated and soft. It also prepares for eye cream or at least I apply right afterwards. With a combination of eye serum and eye cream, it doubles the prevention. Lastly and since I've been using this product, I noticed hydration around my eyes as well as less fine lines. It could be this product but it also could be a combination of products. When it comes to dark circles and puffiness, I cannot say. My dark circles and puffiness is light and small to begin with. I usually don't know a difference except after I apply foundation. The color becomes more neutral. With that said, I still recommend this product. My skin looks soft, alive, and youthful after I pat the product.

Pros:
* No scent whatsoever.
* Comes with a pump.
* Sanitary-safe.
* Little goes a long way with this product.
* Light consistency.
* Lotion-like texture.
* Easy to apply.
* Skin absorbs the product quickly.
* Skin is hydrated.
* Skin is soft.
* Great product to prepare for eye cream.
* Less noticeable fine lines.
* Skin looks more alive and youthful.
* Paraben free.
* Cruelty-free.

Cons:
* Can be costly depending on how you see it.

Would repurchase: Yes.
