Other positive review:
I may have recently turned 37 but with this wonder firming eyecream I don't look a day over 30! I love it. It goes on easily and doesn't burn your eyes after the application. Best out there!
Other factors to consider:
- Contains mineral oil
- Causes milia for some of the users
- Runs off with sweat
- The pump has a tendency to dry up and create balls from the eye cream stuck in the pump tube
Other negative reviews:
I did not like this product because I had the MK age fighting eye cream before and it did not compare to it. It didnt spread easily or make my eyes feel really moisturized. I definately liked the Age fighting cream much more. Plus the packaging is bad, every time I use it I have to push out about quarter of an inch of dried product and its just a waste!

… that, as described by their website. In reviews, there is a good number of positive reviews, agreeing with the product advertisement, more especially with minimizing the eye wrinkles. Another good thing about this product, is it is sold at a very competitive price, only 12 dollars from Amazon, and, it comes in a .65 oz bottle, which is .15 oz more than the typical packaging. However, there may be a good reason for this extra. Although refuted by some, there are probably some manufacturing instabilities with the packaging. There are some women who complain about getting dry, balled up eye cream along with the fresh eye cream, which means you get a certain waste of money.
Another issue is the mineral oil content in the eye cream, which sometimes produces milia for some women. And, although thick during application, it has a tendency to run with sweat on those certain times.

Recommendation: This is definitely not one of the best eye creams we have reviewed in this site, but is still worth considering. Not exactly useless, and in fact, could help with the fine lines. However, I would be careful with certain allergies you could experience with some of the ingredients. If you’ve tested this eye cream, and still not content, or do not want to try this product at all, check out other eye creams we reviewed like Kinerase Eye Cream review or Neutrogena Eye Cream review.
