Did you know that the skin around your eyes is 40% thinner (and delicate) than the rest of your face? Another fact you might not know is that every day, your eyes do over 10,000 micro-movements—which, if you think of each of those as a step, would be the equivalent of your eyes walking 5 miles every day!
No wonder the skin around our eyes tends to show signs of aging before any other area on the face! And that means it needs extra TLC with a more concentrated product to help hydrate, firm, and brighten in a way that an ordinary moisturizer can’t.
That’s where the new Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Concentrate Matrix can help, especially if you start using it preventatively.
Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Concentrate Matrix is described as an ultra-nourishing, plumping formula designed to give eyes a fresh, wide-awake look. Featuring a massaging applicator, the rich concentrate repairs, and hydrates eyes for 24 hours while reducing the look of lines, wrinkles, puffiness and dark circles.
The newest member of the Advanced Night Repair family, the Eye Concentrate Matrix is packed with a 2X concentrated infusion of hydrating hyaluronic acid to help keep the delicate eye area skin nourished and strengthened.
First of all, let’s talk about the massaging applicator. I have to admit, I was a little confused about it initially but then realized how easy it makes applying the product! As suggested in the directions, I just tap and roll the wand gently under each eye, starting at the inner corner and moving outwards around the crow’s feet. And then finish by patting with my ring finger until absorbed.
I really like how the applicator eliminates the need to dip your fingers in a jar which can contaminate the product with each use.
As for the texture, it’s a silky and lightweight gel like formula that absorbs pretty quickly and instantly makes the skin around the eyes look and feel smoother, softer, and less lined. Not only does this eye treatment deliver long-lasting hydration but also works well under makeup. And being fragrance-free, it doesn’t irritate the sensitive eye area.
Even though the name of the product suggests it’s for nighttime, it’s supposed to be used both day and night. In fact, I like to use it first thing in the morning and under my makeup to resolve any puffiness (and look more awake!)
From staring at the computer screen (or iPhone) all day to not getting enough beauty sleep, my eyes need all the help they can get in the anti-aging department! And this new eye concentrate has definitely been a great addition to my skincare routine to improve the look of skin around my eyes.
Bottom Line
If you’re in the market for an anti-aging eye treatment that targets nearly every problem, from fine lines and wrinkles to puffiness and dark circles, the new Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Concentrate Matrix might be your best bet!
Infused with a double dose of hyaluronic acid plus other powerful ingredients, the rich concentrate keeps the delicate eye area extra hydrated while giving it a refreshed, radiant and “wide-open” look.
The new Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Concentrate Matrix ($69) is available for purchase at Sephora, Ulta, Nordstrom and esteelauder.com

Wonderful product. This will let me know if I want to buy the $69 bottle. I’m sure I will but if more companies did this it would help us decide if it is a product we would like to use.
