Target Area(s): Eye wrinkles and puffiness- Used as a day and night cream

Guarantee: Depends on the store

Most effective for:

• Non-oily
• Ingredients are very hydrating
• Great eye cream for puffy eyes
• Is not known to cause any side-effects such as break-outs or milia
• Works well with make-up
• Good scent

Other positive review:

" My husband bought this eye cream because his under eye area was dry and little lines were forming too soon. Within a month we both were surprised how the tiny lines had vanished and his eye area looked soft. I use it myself and I like it too. Really good product! "

Other factors to consider:

• Has minimal effects for fine lines
• Expensive
• Has not worked for a few who have tried it
• Does not work as well for women over 30

Other negative reviews:

I use other products from Estee Lauder and I thouht I'd try this one, but it didn't meet my expectations. It's a good cream but it's not worth the money, you can buy similar products cheaper. I wouldn't recomand it to anyone above 30.

Description: Estee Lauder is one of the more expensive products in the beauty industry. It would be quite apparent that this product would also be a tad more expensive than your regular over the counter products. This eye cream is one under the blemish and wrinkle treatments by Lauder, described by the company as:

Estee Lauder Future Perfect Anti-Wrinkle Radiance Eye Cream: Significantly smoothes the look of your eye area with all the groundbreaking, targeted Cell Vector technology of Future Perfect face crèmes Smooth it on and instantly brighten the look of dark circles. Keep your skin perfectly hydrated Silky eye crème reduces the look of eye lines and wrinklesfast. You'll see a younger, more revitalized look return

Majority of the women have found this eye cream to work, although not much for their eye wrinkles, but have found it good for other skin problems such as eye puffiness, and for the lighter types of eye wrinkles. The best factors about this anti wrinkle treatment is that its ingredients are great for hydrating and moisturizing the applied areas. It also has a light scent that isn’t irritating. It may not be as effective for women over 30, since its effects are very light. But there are less fears of trying it if you’re willing to shell out the cash. This is because there are no reported cases of major of even minor side effects such as break-outs, milia, or itchiness. It also goes well with make-up like some eye creams, and does not produce extra oil that would end up as greasy oil on your face.

Directions for Use: Dab a small amount under and around the eyes, morning and night.

Ingredients: powerful antioxidant NDGA, Vitamin C and Siegesbeckia (a soothing and protective herb), which are delivered to the skin via Cell Vectors

Sunscreen: None

JEN says: The perfect way to greet the new year, for the young, posh, and willing to spend a lot for their skin, this can provide them with the protection they need from premature aging. If you’re suffering from more, and more extreme problems, you should try on a different eye cream.

Target Area(s): Dark circles and fine lines (specially formulated for men)- Used as a day and night cream

Other positive review:

My husband bought this eye cream because his under eye area was dry and little lines were forming too soon. Within a month we both were surprised how the tiny lines had vanished and his eye area looked soft. I use it myself and I like it too. Really good product!

Other factors to consider:

• Has no effects against eye puffiness for some
• Causes irritations for some users
• Scented
• Not good for sensitive skin

Other negative reviews:

I was really disappointed with this product – it's that poor it made absolutely no difference to my under eye area. Expensive product that delivers nothing unlike other products in this range.

Description: Move over a while ladies, we’re not the only ones concerned with skin. There are a lot of men who also consider their eye areas to need immediate action, and so, this is One Of the Eye Cream for Men. Anthony Logistics for Men Eye Cream is one of the few, and more popular eye creams for men. It’s definitely much bigger than the regular eye cream and is described to be

Light and easily absorbed, this excellent eye cream will help reduce fine lines and the signs of ageing. It also contains ingredients designed to strengthen the delicate tissue under the eyes to help reduce dark shadows and puffiness.

The sales says a lot about the product. The only problem is it does not work well with men who have sensitive skin. It may be of little concern for most men who does not have very sensitive skin due to only minimal exposure to chemicals. Overall, this could be a good eye cream for men.

Directions for Use: Dab a small amount under and around the eyes, morning and night.

Ingredients: Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Natural Ingredient. Improves elasticity, moisturises and conditions, helps increase firmness. Shea Butter For smoother, more supple skin.

Sunscreen: None

JEN says: The first ever eye cream for men review, I made it a point to choose one of the creams recommended by men I know who actually try these sort of products out. Because I have had no experience with eye cream, I base this purely on men comments and reviews. Their recommendations definitely were in line with what I have searched. Setting aside the minimum who have not seen any results, this would be an eye cream to try out.

Target Area(s): Fine lines and dark circles – Used as a day and night cream

Guarantee: Depends on the store

Most effective for:

• Dark circles
• Minimizes fine lines
• Doesn’t feel heavy
• Gets easily absorbed

Other positive review:

This is a fantastic addition to the pro-collagen range, it is lightweight but yet very moisturising. This product is easily absorbed around the eye area, and a single pump does both eyes, which makes it last for ages! I have been using this since it was launched, and have seen a reversal of the fine dehydration lines (aka wrinkles) that had started to appear on the outer corners of my eyes.

Other factors to consider:

• Stings the eyes
• Has a tendency to clog pores
• Doesn’t go well with make-up
• Expensive

Other negative reviews:

I have been using the cream for approx 3weeks. I have noticed a difference in my dark circles. The only thing is wen i now apply my conceler it does not sit smoothly, where as before i could get a nice smooth coverage now it just clogs up and makes my eye area look dark. Does this happen to anyone else or is it just me?

Description: This is in the line of the more expensive eye creams, with a price of $99, a price you don’t usually shell out for an eye cream. The product is said to:

This intensive eye cream is formulated with a unique synergy of potent seaweeds that cleverly mimics the skin's function. The powerful anti-wrinkle properties of Padina Pavonica combined with the Amino Acids, Beta Carotenes and Vitamins B, C and E contained in Chlorella and Blue Green Micro-algae, help to smooth, firm and support ageing skin. Results are further optimixed with the anti-Oxidant properties of Methylsilanol Munnuronate, an organic derivate of seaweed that binds moisture in the Epidermis. Independent Clinical Trials* have proven that the appearance of fine lines around the eye contour is visibly toned and smoothed to reveal truly youthful eyes.

There are only a few reviews online about this eye cream, so research might be a bit difficult for you. However, for this much, I would expect optimum results with very minimal negativities to consider.

Directions for Use: Morning and evening, warm 2 pumps of Pro-Collagen between fingers and with firm patting movements work the product around the contour of both eyes, taking care not to drag the eye.

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Dicaprylyl Carbonate, PEG 8, Methylsilanol Mannuronate, Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Polyacrylate, Hexyldecanol, Hexyldecyl Laurate, Padina Pavonica Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Disodium EDTA, Methylparaben, Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides, Sorbitol, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Fragrance (Parfum), Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Algae Extract, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Tocopherol, Equisetum Arvense Extract, Persea Gratissima Leaf Extract (Avocado), Polygonum Fagopyrum Seed Extract, Hydroxyisohexyl 3 Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde, Acacia Decurrens Absolute, Rosa Damascena Flower Absolute, Butylphenyl Methylpropional

Sunscreen: None

JEN says: I’m not very keen on this product. Although it does work for some women, for a price like this, I would expect exceptional results. I would suggest you go search for other natural eye creams reviews with equal or better results, for a lower price like Avalon Organics Lavender Revitalizing Eye Gel review

Sincerely,

Target Area(s): Fine lines and puffiness – Used as a day and night cream

Guarantee: Depends on the store

Most effective for:

• Not greasy
• Minimizes fine lines
• Pleasant smell
• Works for puffy eyes

Other positive review:

I can't believe the negatives about this product. I love it! It makes the skin around the eye super soft and soaks right in. It isn't heavy and greasy at all. Very light and has a pleasant smell. Thumbs up!
-BeKind20thers

I adore this eye balm! It soaks right in and has really made a wonderful difference in the skin around my eyes in a very short period of time. It also reduces the puffiness when applied in the morning before make-up. -duBarry

Other factors to consider:

• Peels off for some
• Balls under the make-up
• Bad packaging
• Light moisturizing effects
• Gives some women allergies

Other negative reviews:

Terrible! Did nothing and was not hydrating at all… and it was super expensive. Returned it after about a month of using it with no results.
annaginsberg

This eye balm balls up on me! I had to pick the bits off my eye area after it became dry. Not something you want to do in the morning when you are in a rush. I have never used any eye cream that balls up! I used to be curious about L'Occitane's facial skin care products, but this eye balm, in addition to another disappointing product from the same product line, has really turned me off! I think I will never buy any facial products from this brand again.

Description: Immortelle Eye Balm by L’Occitane is often suggested for the treatment of dark circles. The product is described by the company as such:

An eye cream with anti-aging benefits: Reduce dark circles, puffiness and signs of tiredness around the eyes with this gentle cream. Formulated with Immortelle essential oil, this cream will soothe, moisturize, nourish and tone the delicate skin around the eyes.

Ironically, the positive reviews of the users of Immortelle Eye Balm claim its effectivity more on the reduction of eye wrinkles, rather than the treatment of dark circles. It is said to reduce eye wrinkles, but is mostly useless for those dark circles around the eyes. Other positive points about this eye cream is that its not greasy, and also reduces the puffiness of the eyes. It has been pointed out by many though, that the eye balm has a tendency to ball up when used under make-up. There are also reports of certain allergies experienced after the product use. The eye balm comes in a glass tub, which is mostly disliked by many of the users. It has a light scent that does not irritate or noticeably stay on the face very long.

Directions for Use: To apply, tap a small amount of Eye Balm on the bone around the eye twice daily.

Ingredients: Water, Rosa Centifolia Flower Water, Polymethyl Methacrylate, Proplyene Glycol, Ruscus Aculeatus Root Extract, Glycerin, Myreth-3-Myristate, Neopentyl Glycol Diethylhexanoate, Decyl Oleate, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Polyacrylamide, Helichrysum Italicum Extract, Sorbitol, Dimethicone, Zea Mays (Corn) Starch, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Hedera Helix (Ivy) Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) Extract, Tocopherol, Carbomer, Laureth-7, Xanthan Gum, Benzoic Acid, Sucrose Palmitate, Sodium Hydroxide, Dehydroacetic Acid, Tetrasodium EDTA, Glyceryl Linoleate, Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil, Borago Officinalis Seed Oil.

Sunscreen: None

JEN says: Not effective as an eye cream for dark circles. Rather, you could consider it for the treatment of your fine lines. However, I would like to reiterate the possible side effects and allergies you may experience with the eye cream. I would recommend getting hold of a tester, before buying the actual eye balm.

Sincerely,

Target Area(s): Dark circles – Used as a day and night cream

Guarantee: Depends on the store

Most effective for:

• Good value
• Not very expensive
• Works for dark circles
• Stinging disappears after a week of use

Other positive review:

This product really works!!! I didn't believe at first that a face cream would actually reduced the appearance of eye dark circles. My wife dark circles were huge and very obscured and this product really reduced them to normal levels. The dark circles didn't dissapear, and I think it was because they were very severe, but my wife is very happy to have just very mild dark circles now instead of really black ones.

Other factors to consider:

• Stings the eyes
• No effects for fine lines, puffy or baggy eyes
• Sometimes causes puffiness around the eyes
• Produces shiny effect

Other negative reviews:

This product did nothing it promised. It dries out the eye area and actually burned so bad it made my eyes water every time I used it. Not worth buying …look for something else!

Description: Vita-K Solution Professional for Dark Circles is of course, designed to diminish or minimize the dark circles around the eyes. The product description, according to its site, is that:

Vita-K Solution Professional Dark Circles minimizes the appearance of Dark Circles. Formulated with ProVita-K Complex combines the remarkable proven benefits of Vitamin K with a unique amino acid/polypeptide complex that significantly improves the appearance of tone and elasticity, and dramatically reduces the appearance of dark circles with the very first application. Enriched with new ProVita-K Complex & mica. New Professional Vita-K Solution provides instant results. No expensive treatments or surgery needed. Clinically Tested & Guaranteed.

In general, it is quite effective on treating those dark circles. Many have already attested to its effectivity as an eye cream for dark circles. What’s best about this product is that it costs less than $20.00, with a price of only 13.30 in Amazon. However, there are some skin types that do not go well with Vita-K Solution Professional for Dark Circles. The most typical negative effects are the stinging of the eye area upon application, and the noticed dryness and puffiness of the skin area being applied. It is said that the stingy feel will disappear after a week or so of use, but there are some women who do not go beyond a single or few applications due to the felt irritation.

Directions for Use: For best results apply a sufficient amount on the desired area twice a day, preferably after shower or bath. Use 4-6 weeks continuously for optimum benefits. When desired results are achieved; continue to use once a day to help keep age spots from reappearing. Results may vary depending on your skin type and condition.

Sunscreen: None

JEN says: As an eye cream for dark circles, it is regarded as pretty effective, and I would rate it as a 3. However, if other considerations are also looked upon, like for example other eye area problems, I would rate it as a 2, most especially if you have pretty sensitive skin in that area. Before using, be careful and consider possible irritation. If only bearable, light stings are experienced then it is safe to continue use, if not, check out Korres Eyebright Firming Cream review or our best eye cream reviews for the best choices.
