Biotique Bio Almond Soothing and Nourishing Eye Cream Review

By Mayuri Tyagi

Hello everyone!

This is my first article on IMBB and I am really excited. I stumbled into this beautiful beauty world when I was trying to get a review for one of the products and now I keep on refreshing the pages to see if there have been any new posts about any new products. Besides that, whenever I go out to buy a new product, I wait to check if there’s a review about it here so that I don’t end up buying something disastrous! Moving on to the review, I took to review one of the products from Biotique. I had heard so much about their stuff so I headed to their counter and asked the SA to give me something for my troublesome dark (well, really dark) circles. Please read on to see if it was a hit or miss.

My Experience with Biotique Bio Almond Soothing and Nourishing Eye Cream:

The cream comes in a sturdy plastic tub. It has a white cap sitting on the top and a screw on cap over that. As with other products coming in a tub, this one too poses that hygiene problem as every time, I have to dip my fingers into it to get the cream out. The cream is white colored and thick in texture. It has a mild herbal smell.

When I applied it on the under eye area, a little got too close to my eye. As expected, it stung badly! But I guess that happens with any cream going into the eyes. The cream has an oily base and leaves an oily film like those heavy winter creams. It doesn’t get absorbed in the skin quickly too. So you can park it aside for day use. I prefer to use it overnight while sleeping as it moisturizes the under eye area well.

I have been using it for a month now and haven’t seen any effect on the dark circles and puffiness. Ya, it moisturizes well, but even our classic Almond oil does that. If you are looking for something for your dark circles, please pass this product as it was a dud for me.

Pros of Biotique Bio Almond Soothing and Nourishing Eye Cream:

• Very moisturizing
• The smell isn’t OTT like some other herbal products

Cons of Biotique Bio Almond Soothing and Nourishing Eye Cream:

• Very thick, oily in composition so doesn’t get absorbed quickly
• Not good for day wear
• Doesn’t help with the dark circles and puffiness

IMBB Rating:
2/5 (just for the moisturizing part)

  1. Welcome to IMBB Mayuri. 🙂

    Except for one of their hair masks, I have never had good experience with their products, so I am not really surprised. Well reviewed, hope you find a good product soon. 🙂

    1. Thanks for the warm welcome Shikha. I have been trying to get my comment through moderation (this is the third reply I am typing in ) and now I figured out why it wasn’t working out earlier 🙂

      Anyways, I think my interest in Biotique products goes down with this product.

  2. Welcome to IMBB Mayuri, I have stopped trying Biotique products because they have stopped working on improving their products.

  3. Hey
    I have used this product too n it stung my eyes like crazy.. I had red eyes almost everytime I used it and tears won’t stop flowing down my cheeks for hours n hours.
    when I put across my complaint with the SA at their Khan market, delhi exclusive outlet…he is stupid enough to say that all eye creams sting and the right way to use one…” is to wash it off after 20 mins”. That’s when I knew… Biotique has lost all hope. Though I still use their shampoo n love it completely.
