I’m not the best at remembering to use eye cream, but I’ve been enjoying the Chanel Sublimage La Creme Yeux Eye Cream in recent times.
Sure, it’s a bit of a splurge, as most items under this line are. It is after all their most luxurious range, and targeted at those who need a little something more for the skin.
Is it earth-shattering in its efficacy?
