............................
Founded in 1991 with private Romanian capital, COSMETIC PLANT passed through the years in continuous development. COSMETIC PLANT had the inspiration to gather from nature’s bouquet those elements, which, through their special properties, will satisfy the necessary care each one of us has. The natural extracts and oils of argan, olive, green tea, sea buckthorn, marigold, hip-rose, chamomile, basil or sage, are incorporated in creams, emulsions, lotions, or shampoos and tend for the complexion—be it normal, sensitive, mature or oily—for the different types of hair, hand, body or foot skin.

1991 – Cosmetic Plant is founded by Mrs. Ileana Mester, pharmacist with extensive experience in cosmetology. The initial investment was less than $ 1,000, the products being made ​​in a building of 40 sqm. The beginning was not easy, the creams were created in small batches with hand-written labels. Soon, with customers testing and assessing the products, Cosmetic Plant flourished and grew from year to year.

Let's go back to the review of the Cosmetic Plant Eye contour cream with Q10 and green tea for normal/combination skin.
 
Formulated to provide the optimal care for the skin around the eyes, the Eye contour cream Q10 and green tea enriched with a mineral complex, is a source of essential actives in the fight against premature aging.
 
The active mineral complex (Ca, Mg, Cu, Zn) ensures the supply of minerals and electrolytes essential to enhancing the well-functioning of mitochondria, the energy factory of the cell. It improves cellular oxygenation and energy metabolism while limiting free radical production.
 
The efficient combination of coenzyme Q10, natural ingredients (wheat germ oil, grape seed oil, almond oil, green tea extract), vitamins (A, E and B5) with the moisturizing active and the mineral filter, provides protection, hydration, and skin firmness. Fragrance free and no parabens !
Recommended age : from 30 to 55.

Directions: Apply the cream daily in the morning and evening, on the area around the eyes. For best results, it is recommended using the cream in combination with the Anti-wrinkle day cream and the Anti-wrinkle night cream in the same range. Avoid contact with eyes!

It comes in a 30 ml glass bottle with a little pump (very useful and hygienic) and has a valability of 6 months. It has a not too thick, not too thin consistency.  It is absorbed very quickly into the skin. It has a delicate, soft, sweet smell.

It nourishes well the eye area but if you have a very dry area, this cream is not moisturizing enough. It didn't cause me any eye reactions to it, like irritations or reddening or waterring of the eyes.

Ingredients : Aqua, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glycerin, Methylpropanediol, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Dimethicone, Titanium Dioxide (nano), Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil, Triticum Vulgare Germ Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil, Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil, Isopropyl Myristate, Ubiquinone, Squalane, Zinc Gluconate, Magnesium Aspartate, Copper Gluconate, Calcium Gluconate, Propylene Glycol, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Panthenol, Pentylene Glycol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Allantoin, Sodium PCA, Fructose, Urea, Maltose, Trehalose, Glucose, Sodium Lactate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Retinyl Palmitate, Tocopherol, Sodium Chloride, Citric Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Phenylpropanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Diethylhexyl Carbonate, Polyglyceryl-6 Polyhydroxystearate, Polyacrylamide, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Laureth-7, Sodium Hydroxide, BHA, BHT

All in all, the Cosmetic Plant Eye contour cream with Q10 and green tea is a good quality product for its price point, it decently nourishes the eye area and it is quickly absorbed into the skin. I give it the B grade, if you are searching for a good eye cream that won't leave you broke try this one! Until next time ,
