If you suffer from puffiness, dark circles, and general aging around your eyes, you may have heard of RevitalEyes by Botanique Paris Skincare. This brand claims it reduces fine lines and wrinkles, improves complexion, and increases collagen production. You may be curious about this brand and if all they claim is true.
Does it actually work? Read this to find out.
Uncovering RevitalEyes by Botanique Paris Skincare
Botanique Paris claims to use a combination of red light therapy and microcurrent technology to address aging, puffiness, and dark circles under the eyes. Below is a breakdown of the science behind these technologies:
Red Light Therapy: Red light, a type of low-level laser therapy (LLLT), emits wavelengths between 630-700nm. This range stimulates cellular processes, increasing collagen production [Improving skin elasticity and reducing fine lines]., ATP production [Boosting cellular energy and promoting tissue repair], blood flow [nhancing circulation and reducing puffiness].
Microcurrent technology: Microcurrent is a low-level electrical current (typically 1-400 microamperes) that mimics the body’s natural electrical impulses. This technology stimulates muscle tone [contracting and relaxing facial muscles to improve contour and reduce sagging], enhances lymphatic drainage [helping to remove toxins and excess fluids, reducing puffiness], and increases protein synthesis [promoting collagen production and tissue repair].
However, there is limited research that supports the use of red light and microcurrent therapy for reducing eye wrinkles and improving collagen.
Fake or Real Skincare Device?
A reverse Google image search shows that a very similar product to RevitalEyes is sold on Aliexpress for just $6 whereas Botanique Paris sells it for $140 but both have the same benefits. This isn’t to say that they’re the same products. But it does point to a classic dropshipping approach where cheap products are repackaged and sold for a markup.
The images also show an intensive difference that is just not possible within a one-month time frame and yet the product claims it happened in under two weeks. Differences like these are only possible over an extended period or with the aid of Botox injections.
All You Should Know About Shopbotaniqueparis.com
Generic Images: This brand’s website includes some before and after photos but most of these are also on other websites and social media platforms websites which suggests that these images are not original and thus do not rightfully represent the brand.
Delayed deliveries: Most customers complain of delayed deliveries. Sometimes by weeks past the due delivery date.
Questionable product quality: Customers complained that this product has poor battery life, breaks easily, or simply stops working after a short time. This implies that the product is inferior and cheap but is still being sold at an exorbitant price.
Reviews: Over a thousand positive reviews on their website but searching on TrustPilot shows a lot of negative reviews. There is also the problem of not having a single review on Amazon which seems suspicious. A product that claims to be this good and equally boasts of over 1,000 sales but yet not one review on Amazon is a glaring red flag.
Limited contact information: The details of the company behind RevitalEyes are hidden. no reliable means of contact, no live-chat, and no provided address. Only an email address is provided and this rings warning bells as every legit business has multiple points of contact.
Limited online presence: While Botanique Paris has a website and social media accounts, their online presence is still relatively small. This on its own isn’t a red flag as most brands starting out may also have a small online presence. The red flag is the fact that they have a following of close to 25k on Instagram with a limited level of interaction most of which have one complaint or the other.
Takehome points
Limited studies specifically on Botanique Paris’ RevitalEyes device – Look for clinically proven technology.
Unrealistic and grossly exaggerated claims – Look for products with realistic claims and expectations
No certification which proves a lack of experiment – Look for products that have expert endorsement and certification
Conclusion:
The lack of any expert endorsement or certification is a sign that something isn’t right. While there may be some scientific backing to the benefit of redlight therapy, RevitalEyes appears to be an overpriced product with more red flags than benefits. Although some of the reviews [unverified and likely purchased] praise the RevitalEyes product, several others complain about little to no difference after using it as directed.
