Using anti-aging products has been my go-to nowadays. I am now going on my mid 30's and I can now feel the signs of aging. I may not have dark circles nor wrinkles now but I am starting to use eye creams to prevent those.

My Thoughts: To begin with I don't have any dark circles on my under eyes. I used this for 2 weeks and I can see that it helped brighten my eyes. The cream feels nourishing and hydrating on the skin but doesn't leave my skin sticky which I like. I think this cream is BEST for those who have dark circles and wants to lighten them.

My Thoughts: I prefer storing this product on the fridge as my eyes feels so good when I use this cold. It is a light weight eye cream that is very soothing and calming to the eyes. I use this whenever my eyes are tired - from work and too much computer. I find it very refreshing to use and it makes my eyes more awake and brighter (like a certain glow). I also like that it is made of vegan ingredients which is not harsh on the skin. It is good to use at night time and can also be used in daytime to makes the eyes more alive.

My Thoughts: This is cream easily makes my under eyes firm and tight in about A WEEK of use. It a light hydrating cream that easily absorbs by the skin. It is non-greasy which I also like. I used this at night time and it locks in the moisture better during night time. I do recommend this for those who want to tighten and hydrate the under eyes better.

My Thoughts: I've been using retinol for my skin for months now and I can say that it really made my skin youthful. I haven't used that for my undereye and I am glad that this one is a plant based alternative for retinol which means that is product is more mild on the undereye. I like that this a mild cream and it non greasy. It easily made my under eye moisturized and hydrated. Not sure on the wrinkles though but I like that preps my skin for that.

How to Use: Apply an adequate amount of it then pat it gently around your eyes. Let your skin absorb it before using a cream as a part of your morning and night skin care routine. Gently use an eye massager on the skin around the eyes.
My Thoughts: Not to be bias but personally, I LOVE USING this one and it really makes my eyes smooth and moisturizing. I used this every night. There a tiny spatula on the end of the massager to easily get the product on the tub. While there is a massager on the other end to help absorb the product on the eye. The cream may look and feel thick so I only use small amount of this to prevent it from being so greasy. I love how it makes my eyes hydrated and moisturized in the morning. I use this to prevent having wrinkles in the future.
