So I know what you’re thinking… truffles?! What the heck?! First of all, truffles are a VERY pricy food that’s considered a delicacy. However, when incorporated into skincare, it can help make your skin look more even by blocking the production of melanin in the skin. It also contains amino acids, which help prevent aging.

 So let’s talk about my experience with this eye serum. This eye serum has a light-weight consistency. I love that because it’s perfect for layering, daytime, and the warmer months…which is when I was using this serum. It also smooths onto the skin very nicely. The serum is a beautiful gold color and almost has a bit of shimmer to it. Now let me talk about my eyes for a bit. I have SUPER sensitive eyes. It’s honestly way too much to get into, but if you follow my social media or youtube channel, you’ve probably heard me talk about this. This serum did not irritate my eyes, which was a relief. I also liked that it kept my under eyes hydrated. I can notice when I’m neglecting my eye area (because my fine lines are more pronounced when I’m not being diligent) and which this serum, I felt that my under eye area looked more plump. It’s hard to say whether or not I noticed a long-term difference, but I like this!

 But here’s the thing. This is EXPENSIVE. I actually didn’t realize how much this cost (because they sent it to me in exchange for a review) until I looked up more information of this product for this review. When I saw the price, my jaw dropped. It’s $699. I actually think this is a very valuable part of this review… I had no idea how much this line cost. In other words, when I was using this line, did I think this was a $699 eye serum? No. I had no idea. I thought it was nice, the packaging is nice…. but I honestly don’t this is $699 nice. So takes that for what it’s worth.

I love cleansing oils. I can’t live without double cleansing my skin! I don’t wear makeup everyday, but when I do, I wear a lot…so cleansing oils and balms are a must in my routine. As you can see in the picture below, it’s a beautiful gold color. I love the consistency of this because it’s super smooth and glides onto the skin. As for my experience with this cleansing oil, I love that this doesn’t leave my skin feeling stripped. It actually leaves my skin feeling very comfortable, soft and smooth. I would say this is best for those you who don’t wear a ton of makeup. As you can see below, I applied some mascara and eyeliner to the back of my hand and massaged the oil on the swatches to show you guys how effective this is. It doesn’t break up the makeup as much as I’d like it to, so I save this for my no makeup days.

 I have very dry skin. So I’ve become more selective when it comes to cleansers. I can immediately tell if I like a cleanser or not just by judging how dry my skin feels after using it. This cleanser is really gentle on my skin. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed because it’s a nice soft cleanser. However, again, with most of these products… I didn’t realize how expensive these products were. So when I was using this, did I think this was a $129 cleanser? No, I didn’t. I did enjoy using but I don’t think I would shell out that much money for ANY cleanser.

This moisturizer kept my skin nice and hydrated. As you can see in the picture below, it’s a medium consistency… not too thick, not too thin. I felt like this absorbed pretty quickly and didn’t feel heavy on my skin. Overall, I feel like this is a pretty basic face cream. I didn’t notice a significant difference (possibly because I always heavily hydrate my skin with LAYERS of skincare) but I like that it felt comfortable on my skin.

Last but not least, I tried out their peeling gel. I personally like peeling gels because I feel like it’s a gentle way to exfoliate and stimulate my skin without having to abrasively scrub at my skin. This peeling gel makes my skin feel SO SOFT! It does a really nice job of removing dead skin cells and my skin looks visibly brighter after using this.

I hope you guys enjoyed my review of some of the Gold Elements products I received! Let me know if you’ve tried some of their products. I look forward to hearing your thoughts 🙂
