secret key snail repairing eye cream

i've wanted to try another eye cream for so long but i don't know which one to try. i wanted to try sum:37 or sulwhasoo samples, but i can't afford the full size, so i have to find something new. i was going to buy the loreal revitalift x3 one, but somehow i always hesitate. and then i found out about secret key. actually, the one that i want to try is the snail+egf one, but somehow my sister made a mistake and buy the regular snail one. oh well, i can't find the difference, but all i know the snail+egf one is branded as an upgraded one. (but i'm confused.. i read somewhere that the new design only say snail even though it's the snail + egf one, but correct me if i'm wrong)

description from en.koreadepart.com: 
ingredients: adenosine, beta glucan, niacinamide, arbutin, macadamia seed oil, jojoba seed oil, squalene. (a lot of these ingredients are known for their moisturizing as well as whitening properties).
product description: protects skin from harmful materials, chondroitin sulfate of main ingredient of mucin keeps resilient and radiant skin. affects mildly on eyes and creates vivid and moisturizing skin. refreshing touch. 

actually, this is my first snail product.. so i'm kind of excited to try. some bloggers report that they like it, so i hope it works on me too.

the packaging: it's packaged in a simple tube, white cream tube with a brown cap. it's a screw cap. there's an english text at the front with the product name and a little bit description, but at the back everything is in korean. but i'm happy it's a tube! a little bit hygienic than my previous tub.

the smell: well, this one smells nice.. floral scent, so i'm sure it's not a snail scent. yaiks.. i can't even imagine how snails should smell. hahaha..

the product: it's a white gel cream, pretty light and easily absorbed. it's quite watery since it melts easily after being applied but doesn't leave sticky feeling. 

the result: it's quite moisturizing but not as heavy as my previous skinfood which takes forever to absorb. but this one also takes awhile to sink in, but not forever. about the moisturizing part, if you have pretty dry skin, then probably this one is not quite moisturizing enough for you. as for other result, i think it does nothing to my dark eyes. but it's moisturizing enough that i don't notice any lines underneath my eyes. but it's just a month or so, so i will update about it if i noticed anything else. but so far i like it better than the skinfood one since i can use it day and night.
