PattyTherre's Full Review: Skin Care Beauticontrol Regeneration Time To Go Ca...
I have been trying - and liking - several BeautiControl skin care products and one I have been using isBeautiControl Regeneration Time To Go Capsules. These capsules have just been renamed Regeneration Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules but both the old and newly named products have the exact ingredients.
You can get the Time to Go Capsules from reps and eBay. The newly named Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules are on the BeautiControl main website and on representatives' public websites.
I like these capsules and feel they add a little extra something to my eye care routine. I will refer to them by their new name but know that the Time To Go Capsules are the same product.

Packaging
These little capsules come 30 to a small glass jar and are boxed. You use just one capsule for both eyes so a jar will last a month if you use them nightly. I don't use them every night, more like every other or every third night. The old capsules are a silver color and the new appear to be a white color with a tiny neck that twists off. They are soft and the serum squeezes out and is thick and light gold. My Experience
I have been using Time To Go Capsules for about five months. When they switched the name, I thought they switched ingredients and got nervous but my rep assured me that the ingredients were the same and I did compare the ingredients lists and they indeed were the same. I then stocked up on a few jars of the Time To Go Capsules selling cheaply on eBay and will buy the newly named ones when the time comes. BeautiControl Regeneration Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules are made to be used nightly before any other products like eye cream. You can use them a few times a week to get benefits as well the way I do.
I just twist open a capsule and dot the light gold serum under both eyes. I tend to put one dot on each eye and then go back and forth until the capsule is empty to be sure I get the same amount under and around each eye.
I then gently pat the product around and under my eyes. My skin becomes very silky and I don't feel any greasy residue when I use this product.
After a few minutes, I use my eye cream or or I can skip eye cream and let the capsules work on their own. My skin is hydrated with the serum on it so I can easily go without eye cream and not feel dry or tight around my eye area.
These capsules contain retinol and other ingredients to plump lines while depuffing and lightening circles. They also contain green tea, an antioxidant, a few different hydrating ingredients, and an ingredient that acts a barrier between skin and makeup or skin and the elements.
I don't feel any sort of irritation or tingling when I use BeautiControl Regeneration Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules. They aren't harsh and they don't cause my sensitive eyes to burn or water.
I definitely feel like the skin around my eyes is being nourished and it is super soft and silky. I didn't notice much of anything else for a week or so of every night use but then I started to see that little lines appeared plumped when I used the capsules and my eyes were not puffy at all in the morning. My dark circles are deep and it's very hard to see much change in those. They may have gotten a smidgen lighter. The skin around my eyes also seemed firmer.
I did note though, when I used the capsules every night for a length of time, that I would get tiny red bumps (Just a couple.) around my eyes the next day. I found out that those bumps came from over-hydration. I was using the capsules and heavy night cream and I literally over-hydrated my eye area and the bumps were tiny sacks of water!
I have since cut back how often I use the capsules as well as how much cream I use when I do use them. That solved the little bump problem and the results seem just as good as when I used the capsules nightly.
In the morning, I wash my face and use my usual skin care and my eyes look more alive, fresher, and less tired. I wouldn't say I look dramatically younger or that I see major results like I would if I had an eye lift, but the skin around my eyes is tighter and smoother and it just looks better.
I definitely will continue using BeautiControl Regeneration Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules or Time to Go Capsules (Whichever I can get the cheapest that isn't expired!) until something else comes along that gives me even better results. So far, Regeneration Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules, along with my usual skin care routine, seems to be working quite well for me. Buying Info
BeautiControl Regeneration Time to Go Capsules are still being sold by BC representatives on eBay as well as one on one, although not listed on their web pages. The only difference between the newer capsules is the name and slight packaging changes.
BeautiControl Regeneration Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules can be purchased on any BeautiControl website or through a rep as well. The cost for a jar of 30 is now $39.50, up from $35.00 when they had the old name. Someone's gotta pay for that new packaging!
Conclusion
BeautiControl Regeneration Time to Go Capsules, now Regeneration Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules, are tiny capsules of powerful ingredients that soften the skin around the eyes, hydrate, plump lines, firm, soften dark circles, and reduce puffiness. All that in a half capsule per eye!
These aren't miracle workers and I'm sure the amount of retinol is not super high but all of the ingredients combined do make a positive impact on the look of the skin around my eyes, the fine lines under and around them, and my whole eye area in general. Using a capsule every other night or every third night works fine for me and saves money too! 4 stars. These are a good addition to anyone's usual skin care routine.
