Hi everyone
Has anyone tried eyesential.....i've been thinking about buying it was a very long time, but the price is putting me off, cant even get it cheap on ebay.
My other concern is what happens when you smile? Do you laughter lines stay smoothed out like botox? I've tried similar products and when you smile your lines look worse than without the product.
Looking forward to hearing your experiences.
Many thanks
Marie

I tried it when it first came out on a TV shopping channel.
You need to not smile until it dries. I didn't like the feel of it on my face and it wasn't totally invisible. Sort of like applying egg white but more liquid. I rarely wear make up but I would imagine applying foundation would "crack" it - sorry not the right word but can't think of another one! - or spoil the effect by rubbing it off.
Ashamed to say I totally wasted my money by dumping it in the bin
Maybe they've changed the formula by now and it's better. See what other folks say but personally I wont bother again, I'm growing old gracefully
Yes I' ve tried it too. Quite difficult to apply it properly as it has to be a very thin coat. You can't use foundation over the top - only powder based ones so the new mineral makeup might work - can't tell you from experience though. I found a product called Genie to be easier to apply, without the slightly white film residue. I got mine on Ebay. However don't use either anymore.
