Final Verdict:
L'oreal Paris White Perfect Magic White Double Whitening Day Cream is pretty okay.It instantly brightens the face and gives matte finish.It suits my normal skin,though might not favour other skin types.But other than day cream doesn't benefit skin much.It does not provide any whitening effect.I found L'oreal Paris Skin Perfect Day Cream for Age 20+ a better and affordable option than this day cream.The TiO2 beads are nothing but Titanium oxide which is a sunscreen agent.
L'oreal Paris White Perfect Magic White Double Whitening Eye Cream is nice to wear under make up.It sort acts like eye primer.It is non-greasy and it did help with mild dark circles which is a result of constant travelling and jet lag.The range is bit disappointing considering the skin care range they have and the price point.
My Rating:2.75/5
