If there was one brand I had to pick as a favourite in the "all-round makeup and skin care category", I'd pick Lancome. They've already come out with my HG eye-cream, my HG mascara and a lip lacquer I love.
I've been wanting a Rouge in Love lipstick for a while now after I tested one out and it lasted through a greasy pesto. Each time, the lighting works such that I end up with a shade too dark (thanks for taking them off my hands, Mum. Not that you had a choice).

Thanks to insufficient sleep, staring at computers, reading in dim light, forgetting to bring sunglasses, low water intake and other forms of eye abuse, I have mild dark circles, tired lines and mild eye bags. I've used a tonne of products which have made my eye-area feel better and moisturised, but which didn't really make a difference to the problems mentioned.

I've used samples of Genefique Yeux and wanted a full-size, but then I heard that Genefique Yeux Light Pearl was an improvement on it, so I decided to get it. I love the bottle it comes in. It looks very luxe, and you can see how much of the product is left.

Check out the ingredients list - no parabens! 

On opening the bottle, you find an applicator which is a steel "bead", attached to the lid. The bead rotates 360 degrees. It is meant to massage the product over the dark circles and lines. All you have to do to apply the product is roll the bead over the eye area.The product itself is a milky liquid that is neither too runny nor too viscose. I can't tell you if it has a fragrance, as I have a stuffy nose.

Here are my findings about Lancome Genefique Yeux Light Pearl.
