The Body Shop Lightening Touch

If dark circles under your eyes are the bane of your beauty regime, then The Body Shop's Lightening Touch is the product for you. The product itself is a tinted cream of a similar consistancy to liquid foundation, which promises to lighten the skin around your eyes and make dark circles less noticable. It comes in a fancy silver tube divided into three segments. The bottom segment is twisted to get the cream to come out the top, the middle segment holds the cream and the top segment has a brush to help you apply the cream. I find the brush quite bristley and plastic, though, so I tend to use my fingertip. The best way to use the product is to dab ...  Read the complete review

The Body Shop Lightening Touch Concealer is a product that has been a staple for me for a couple of years now. It is meant to be a highlighter-type concealer, in the vein of Yves St. Laurent's Touche Eclat, brightening the under-eye area whilst simultaneously camouflaging dark circles. The Body Shop recently re-packaged this product, along with the rest of their makeup line. While I don't argue the line was in need of a face lift - the old packaging had seemingly been around forever - I do take issue with this particular product's repackaging. I bought the new, silver pen-style concealer pen recently. I had used the dregs of the old container, which was a ...  Read the complete review

The Lightening Touch is a great little secret weapon make up product. If you have darker shadows under your eyes this is the perfect product for you. It comes in two shades, a light, yellow toned one and a slightly darker pink toned one. It is best to test them in the shop to find out which will be most effective for you. It costs £9.36 at the moment, however, it used to be around £12 so perhaps this is in the sale. To use, simply turn the end of the pen for about two clicks. This dispenses enough of the product for one eye on to the little brush. Ensure that you have applied your foundation BEFORE you use the Lightening Touch. Place along the dark ...  Read the complete review

Recently I was talked into hosting a Body Shop at Home party. I had been looking for something to disguise the dark circles under my eyes, which I am really paranoid about, so thought this was the ideal time to try some things out... and Body Shop products are really good too! I decided to purchase a product called "lightening touch" in shade 01. It is available in 2 different shades - the one that I ordered and shade 03 which is slightly darker. I thought that as seen as I was trying to lighten up my eyes, the darker shade wouldn't be a good idea! Unfortunately there aren't any colours for darker skin. Lightening touch is designed not ...  Read the complete review

I managed to get hold of this a few months ago. It is the best thing possible to stop bags under the eyes showing. I have tried many similar products to this by many different brand, even some more expensive brands, however this one stood out from the rest, because it worked noticeably. Not only does it remove any trace of darkness underneath your eyes, it also makes your entire eye socket look lighter and a lot more awake!! I would say this is an essential for anyone who has to make a very early start! You only need to use a small amount of the product, therefore another advantage of Body Shop Lightening Touch is that it will last for ages, and give you good value for ...  Read the complete review
