Talika Eye Detox
Product Overview
European company started originally in 1948, Talika Paris, discovered that, after treating burn victims with a botanical salve for their eyes, they soon experienced longer, fuller eyelashes. For years, Talika has been famous for its eyelash formula, which has an extraordinary amount of clinical research behind its capacity to double and even triple the length and strength of eyelashes.
In 2005, Talika produced its own product for dark circles and puffiness near the eye, called Eye Detox.
Like the Talika eyelash formula, the Eye Detox product include natural or naturally derived components. Most of these appear to be proteins and peptides (signally molecules that encourage protein synthesis), but there are also other exclusive ingredients, such as Horse Chestnut and Cornflower water.
Horse Chestnut has long been known to be useful in those with varicose veins or similar circulatory problems due to diabetes. It seems to have a positive effect on the blood vessels in the body and helps prevent the pooling of blood than can show through skin and make you look gruesome. In theory, Horse Chestnut would therefore be able to minimize dark circles, because it would boost circulation and prevent the clogging of blood that often leads to dark circles.
Cornflower water has also been used to the formula to soften and soothe the skin, which could be desirable in those who have puffiness under the eye.
Price: $75

Dos And Don’ts
The Talika Web site in English is incomplete. Some of the translations from French to English seem incorrect or at the very least a bit “clunky.so you may face some difficulty understanding the promises and information provided in the site. Given the history of Talika’s eyelash product, the company can be given the benefit of doubt but it is quit hare to believe on all the claims. The company claims through site use of the formula resulted in 85% less dark circles and 100% less puffiness under the eye. However, the translation may be inaccurate, and that these numbers refer to the percentage of people who noticed a positive effect, not the effect itself. Hopefully the company can clarify this soon. The web site does contain some positive customer testimonials, but it does not offer a free trial of the product.
So you may go for the product if you want to.
Final Comment
Paying $ 75 for a product with the combination of the Lipocils eyelash formula and the Eye Detox without any trial offer might be too expensive for many consumers. Even if you buy it you may still need to purchase a separate formula for crow’s feet, which drives this eye kit higher in price than other comparable systems that contain all three formulas already.
