Eye Cream Reviews So You Can Find The Best eye cream

I created this site to find the best eye cream.
In the process I've had the chance to try out, look at, and review a
lot of eye creams.

Not surprisingly, I've found that a lot of them don't work. Here are a couple of pages on my site you might want to look at:

  1. The Best Eye Creams
  2. LifeCell Skin Care (98/100)
  3. Age Defying System by EliteSkin (96/100)
  4. All Eye Cream Reviews
Click here for the worst eye creams review.

I hope this site is helpful to you. :)
After you use a cream please come back and leave a comment and let me
know how it worked for you.

Elite Serum

Target Area(s): Crows feet, dark circles, fine lines, puffiness and wrinkles – Use as a night cream

Price:$89.95 – $90.00

Elite Serum is a recently launched product with “Defend. Protect. Rejuvenate” as the tag line. It looks like a botox injection when you first see it…it's not. However, it's a pretty darn good product from a company with a good history of making products that work. Here's what they claim it can do:

  • Lift and Firm Skin
  • Diminish Crows Feet
  • Smooth Fine Lines
  • Eliminate Puffiness
  • Reduce Dark Circles

Besides the companies marketing, here's what it has going for it:

  • Many satisfied customer testimonials.
  • Has real before and after pictures that proves it works
  • They're using Argireline. We know this works to relax wrinkles.
  • A previous product in their skin care line was featured in many industry publications as well as print media like Yoga Magazine, where it was named “Editors Choice of 2009.”
  • The ingredients are known to boost collagen
  • Competitive Price

Other factors to consider:

  • Some might find it difficult to dispense

Description: How does Elite Serum work?

It has some of the most effective anti-wrinkle, anti-aging ingredients in it. Scientifically, these have been proven to work. Here are the ingredients you care about: Argireline, Snap-8, Haloxyl, Eyeliss, Matrixyl 3000, and Syn-coll.

Instead of the normal fillers and binders which some products have to try and make the product last longer, Elite Serum contains antioxidants like red and green seaweed extract, which are well known to preserve the skin’s natural collagen.

Directions for Use: Squeeze it directly onto areas around your eyes. For more intense treatment, apply a thick layer around and under your eyes in the evening and leave on overnight. Don't put it on your finger first. Put it directly onto your skin and massage it in.

Ingredients: Contains a high concentration of pharmaceutical-grade peptides – Argireline, SNAP-8, Haloxyl, Eyeliss, Matrixyl-3000, Syn-Coll, Green Seaweed Extract and Pure Hyaluronic Acid

Guarantee: "Lab-tested with only the highest quality ingredients." — not a very good guarantee.

Recommendation: The company has had great products in the past, so I trust them, but this product has yet to be proven. I would use it only if Lifecell Eye Cream didn't work for you. If you have used Elite Serum I urge you to leave an Elite Serum review in the comment section below.

100% Pure Cosmetics - Organic Coffee Bean Eye Cream

Target Area(s): Dark circles, puffiness and baggy eyes – used as a day and night cream

Price: $14.20 – $15.00

Coffee does not only taste good, it gives you that caffeine kick to jump start your morning but does it really work as an effective ingredient in an eye cream? Lets check out my latest find, the 100% Pure Organic Coffee Bean Eye Cream and see if it lives up to what people expects it to be.

Most effective for:

  • Smells good, no artificial fragrances
  • All natural ingredients
  • Can be used as a day and night eye cream
  • Effective eye moisturizer, removes puffing and swelling around the eyes
  • No parabens, chemical preservatives, toxic ingredients

Other factors to consider:

  • No FDA approval
  • Only removes the dark circles and nothing more
  • No guarantees
  • Takes time to show results
  • Product content is not enough to achieve fast results

Description: The product 100% Pure Caffeine Eye Cream claims that it is effective in reducing puffiness and swelling around the eyes while it enhances circulation that will relieve and diminish dark circles. It is highly concentrated cocktail of powerful anti-aging vitamins, black currant oil and anti-oxidants. It also claims to be made of a hundred percent purely organic ingredients eliminating the use of chemicals, parabens, artificial fragrances, toxins and chemical preservatives.

Although caffeine is a common ingredient used in most eye creams and is popular for its anti-aging and anti-oxidant properties, being an all natural and organic product, it does take time to deliver definite results. Coffeeholics will definitely love this product because the scent of the coffee beans are quite overwhelming. Some consumers attest that it is effective in reducing dark circles and baggy eyes. Women even use this as an alternative to their day and night eye cream.

This product however, won't work well for people who have allergies to coffee and with its other ingredients. The cream is of a heavy consistency that comes out like a thin string from its dispenser so you will have to use your fingers to apply it well and deep into the sides of your eyes. For you to fully experience any change in your eyes, you have to use it for at least a month.

Directions for Use: Apply generous layer in orbital eye area. Can be used as a morning or night eye cream.

Ingredients: As indicated in the website, the product contains the following ingredients:White and Green Tea (Organic), Green Coffee (Organic), Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Palmitate), Ribes Nigrum or Black Currant Fruit Oil, Chamomilla and Lavender Wax, Vitamin E (A Tocopherol),Pure Vanilla Absolute, and the following organic extracts of:, Rosmarinus Officinalis or Rosemary, Oregano, Thymus Vulgaris or Thyme, Grapefruit Seed, & Goldenseal (Organic).

Legal Disclaimer: The products and the claims made about specific products on or through this site have not been evaluated by the United States Food and Drug Administration and are not approved to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

Recommendation: If your problem is dark circles and puffiness then I would definitely recommend this to you. It can reduce puffy eyes and swelling. Although the product takes time to show results but then its effective in the long run, so what's a little wait for a long time effectiveness right? This will definitely make you look less tired but not less older. You can opt for Jason Naturals Vitamin K Crème Plus or check our other eye cream reviews. Although caffeine works best when ingested than applied, there's no harm in combining the best of both worlds.

Annemarie Borlind Regeneration LL Eye Wrinkle Cream

Target Area(s): Wrinkles – used as a day and night cream

Price: $47.99 – $48.00

I will not buy this if I were you. It's mighty expensive at $48.00 for only a 1 fluid oz jar of eye cream that does not offer any guarantees or lasting results.

Most effective for:

  • Promotes the renewal of skin cells
  • Smoothens out wrinkles
  • Replenishing oil and moisturizes skin around eyes
  • Strengthens the skin's resistance to aging
  • Calms and soothes the eyes

Other factors to consider:

  • Expensive at $48.00
  • Does not work for everybody
  • No FDA approval and no clinical testing
  • Takes time to show results
  • For some, it has no long term results

Description: The Borlind Regeneration Eye Wrinkle Cream made by Anne Marie claims to be an effective beauty product that is perfect for toning the eye area. It is an effective moisturizer that is clinically tested by dermatologists resulting in the reduction of wrinkle depth of up to around 70% in just 2 weeks. It is also perfect for use for ladies who are over 30 years of age if they want to moisturize poor and dry skin around the eyes. The product promises to rejuvenate the area around eyes, promote the renewal of skin cells to give your eyes stronger resistance to aging, a less tired and younger appearance.

However, this product does not deliver what it actually promises. One of the users attest it took them at least 3 months of use with very minimal reduction of their wrinkles around the eyes. Some experienced irritation and some did not see any results at all. One user even claimed she developed more wrinkles after using this product and had to go back to using her old eye cream. Another user claims that initially the product was effective at giving the skin around her eyes a cooler and smoother appearance, it only lasted for a few hours and she experienced dryness and more wrinkles.

Much as there are some consumers who attest this works for them effectively, you cannot remove the fact that this product does not work for everyone. This could be a very costly and useless product to try if you are aiming to gain sure and instant results.

Directions for Use: Apply daily, morning and evening. Spread a small amount of cream (about the size of a pea) on the fingertips and gently massage into the delicate eye area using small circular movements.

Ingredients: According to the website, the product contains active ingredients like Bio-Complex, Chamomile, Rose Water, Shea Butter, Witch Hazel, Calendula, Coneflower, Sage, Sesame Oil, St. John's Wort Oil.

Recommendation: Use your common sense and don't buy this product! There are other more effective and cost efficient eye creams out there that are sure to give you true and lasting results without the nasty side effects. It does not even have FDA approval to prove that it is totally safe for use.

At $49.99 you can definitely find a product that you can apply just once a day and do wonders for your skin and eyes. At this price and with this product, you will end up being more stressed and wrinkled when you do not get the results that you expect.You can check out the best products we have reviewed like Shiseido Benefiance Concentrated Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream, one that is sure to work for wrinkles.

Peter Thomas Roth Mega Rich Intensive Anti-Aging Cellular Creme

Target Area(s): Wrinkles, fine lines and baggy eyes – used as a night cream

Price: $42.00

If you are looking for an anti-Aging product that won't damage your eyes as well as your wallet, then this product is not for you! The price of Peter Thomas Roth Mega Rich Intense Cell Eye Cream can easily burn a deep hole in your pocket and can even cause a burning sensation in your eyes.

Most effective for:

  • Great eye moisturizer
  • Ideal for aging skin and all skin types
  • Non greasy and lightweight
  • Removes eye bags, wrinkles and fine lines around eyes
  • Hydrating around the eyes

Other factors to consider:

  • Does not work for everyone
  • Can irritate and sting the eyes
  • No money back guarantee

Description: Judging from the numerous reviews from certified users, it gives a lot of promises like removing the classic signs of aging but the product does not offer the promise that there won't be any side effects. Among these promises is the reduction of deep fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. It claims to be a powerful moisturizer that hydrates and firms up the skin around the eyes giving you a youthful glow. For some, the product gave a boost in their appearance, while others were reduced to tears because there were no changes at all, their wrinkles got worse and literally their eyes stung making them cry.

I would cry too if I didn't get my money's worth on such an expensive eye product. It will take two applications a day for several weeks before any definite results can be seen when you use this eye cream. Until then, try holding back your tears as you use this!

Directions for Use: Apply twice daily to face and neck. If desired use in the P.M. as a night cream

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Glyceryl Stearate, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Propylene Glycol Stearate,Cetyl Alcohol, Viola Tricolor Extract, Camellia Sinensis (White Tea) Leaf Extract, Echinacea Purpurea Extract, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Ceramide 3, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Wheat Amino Acids, Collagen, Elastin, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Ascorbyl Methylsilanol Pectinate, Panthenol (Pro Vitamin B5), Allantoin, Soluble Collagen, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Squalane, Dimethicone, Oleic Acid, Polysorbate 20, Maleic Acid, Lactic Acid, Hydrolyzed Elastin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Polyacrylamide, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Carbomer, Disodium EDTA, Propylene Glycol, Quaternium-15, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Foeniculum Vulgare (Fennel) Seed Extract.

Recommendation: I would not recommend this product. Aside from it being expensive, it does not fully guarantee that you will get the results that you deserve. That makes it very risky to even experiment with. At relatively the same price you can find an eye cream like Hylexin Eye Cream that can offer you more and definitely deliver.

L'Oreal Paris Youth Code Regenerating Skincare Serum

Target Area(s):Puffiness and moisturizes – Use as a day and night cream

Price: $19.59

A practical consumer will use their common sense and cents in buying a product that is truly worth their every penny. Unfortunately, this product does not fit the bill for the perfect buy.

The producers L'Oreal Youth Code Daily Treatment Eye Cream claims that they have invested over 10 years of extensive research to come up with a product that effectively rejuvenates the skin around the eyes to help you restore your youthful looks. The product comes with a unique metal applicator which dispenses the cream and helps in faster absorption by gently massaging the skin around the eyes. It is supposed to reduce stress signs, wrinkles, eye bags, and aging skin around your orbs. It works as a powerful moisturizer that encourages your skin's natural regenerating powers resulting to younger looking skin around the eyes.

Here's what it has going for it:

  • Fragrance free
  • Non-greasy
  • Dermatologically tested for mildness
  • Tested by Ophthalmologists
  • The ingredients are known to boost collagen
  • Regenerates skin around eyes for youthful look

Other factors to consider:

  • only 0.5 fl oz – not enough product content
  • can cause eye irritation
  • does not work for everyone and for all skin types
  • the smell is not pleasant for everyone
  • takes time to show results

How It Works: Although in some websites, this product is sold for less than the $24.99 retail price, the tube and its contents are not enough to satisfy the customer. There are no money back guarantees and it does not indicate that it has FDA approval. Some people attest that it works but what is very significant about it is that it took several weeks and even months to show dramatic results. Other users swear that it did not do anything for them and even caused rashes, irritation and skin bumps.

Directions for Use: Apply one to three drops over your face and neck, smoothing gently until thoroughly absorbed. For best results, use in the morning and evening in conjunction with other Youth Code products.

Ingredients: According to the site, the product's contents are:Water, Glycerin, Squalling, Stearic Acid, Cetyl Alcohol, Palmitic Acid, Cera Alba (Beeswax), Glyceryl Stearate, Propylene Glycol, Honey, Algae (Seaweed) Extract, Glycine Soya Protein (Soybean Protein), Isohexadecane, Sodium Hydroxide, Silica, Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate, Hydrolyzed Rice Bran Protein, Panthenol, Polysilicone 8, Acrylamide (Sodium Acryloyldimethyltaurate Copolymer), Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Phenoxylethanol, Digluconate, Ethylparaben, CI 77491, CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide), Cyclohexasiloxane, Sodium Benzoate,Stearyl Alcohol,PEG 100 Stearate,Nylon 66,PEG 20 Stearate,Ruscus Aculeatus Root Extract/Ruscus Aculeatus (Butcher's Broom) Extract ,Caffeine, Bifida Ferment Lysate,Cholesterol, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer, Adenosine,Hydroxypalmitoyl Sphinganine,Fagus Sylvatica Extract, Polysorbate 80,Acrylates Crosspolymer,Methylparaben,CI 77499,CI 77492 (Iron Oxides)

Recommendation: I would not recommend this and these are my reasons why.

The producers of this eye cream claim that it was subjected to dermatological and ophthalmologist testing but the true gauge that it is really safe is for it to have FDA approval.

Even with daily use of the product, it will take more than a month for you to see any significant results and you will end up having to buy another tube just to see if it really works. Through its customer's testimonials, it is proven that it doesn't work for everybody and it has existing side effects.Check out my review on 100% Pure Organic Coffee Bean Eye Cream, this can be the cream for you. As for the L'Oreal Youth Code Daily Treatment Eye Cream, use your common sense and keep your cents – Do Not Buy!
