PROS
- Deeply moisturizing and emollient-rich for barrier repair.
- Strong antioxidant profile with multiple botanical extracts and oils.
- Occlusive nature helps retain hydration for dry or mature skin.
- Fully plant based and mostly natural ingredients.
CONS
- High essential oil content (lavender, bergamot, etc.) increases irritation risk for sensitive eyes.
- Thick balm texture may feel heavy or prone to milia.
- Limited peptides or actives for firming, puffiness reduction, or brightening.
- Fragrance potential from essential oils may compromise daily wear under makeup.
FINAL VERDICT
Laurel Skin Eye Balm is a rich, botanically-packed treatment designed for deep hydration and antioxidant protection. While emollient and oil-rich, the high concentration of essential oils may irritate the delicate eye area, making it less suitable for sensitive skin or daily morning use. The formula lacks targeted peptides or brightening/puffiness actives, but excels in barrier reinforcement and nourishment for dry or mature skin. It meets Functional Beauty standards only partially due to essential oil sensitization risk.
