Shu Uemura Red:Juvenus Roll-Away Instant Eye Fatigue Corrector Review

The Shu Uemura Red:Juvenus Roll-Away Instant Eye Fatigue Corrector is a cooling roll-on eye fatigue corrector that is designed to instantly reduce signs of fatigue and brighten the eye area. Shu Uemura claims that the Red:juvenus is the first innovative skin beauty program with Phyto-Red Energy Complex consisting of Amalaki, Pomegranate and Lycopene Capsule 2X (a patented encapsulation technology to help better delivery of ingredients into epidermis).

I tried this roller-ball and for those who usually lack sleep like I do, this does a good job. I love the cool, refreshing feeling on my undereye area. Here are some tips on how to apply the roller-ball on the eye area, per the insert that came with the product:

1. To release the appropriate amount of formula, slightly tilt the roll-on applicator towards the face while lifting the head slightly.

2. Gently slide the roll-on applicator over the eye area. Repeat 2-4 times.

3. With the roll-on applicator, gently apply pressure to pressure points for 3 seconds each. (the points are the inner corner and slightly above the inner corner of the eye, and tail-end of the brow just above the eye socket).

4. Move middle and ring fingers slowly around the lid and eye area to blend the formula into the skin.

5. Pat undereye area lightly with fingertips to help the skin absorb the formula. Finish by pressing temples gently.

I noticed that this does make my undereye area look more awake and refreshed. I will try to put up comparison pictures soon. This product contains caffeine which instantly perks up the eyes and makes them look brighter and less puffy. I also love the directions on how to apply this. The shiatsu massage feels really heavenly and it's an instant relaxer for me. I will definitely bring this with me to trips and will be a staple in my bag for in-flight relaxation.

I have deep bags especially if I lack sleep, so this product is a must-have for me. No matter how wonderful my makeup is, I don't look good if my eyebags are puffy and I look fatigued. I apply this after I wash my face and before putting on makeup, and the additional couple of minutes it takes to apply this really make a difference on how my eyes look, particularly my undereye area. That part of my face looks more rested, refreshed and less puffy after application of the Roll-Away Instant Eye Fatigue Corrector.

This product retails for $26 and is available on the Shu Uemura website.
