I just bought this product at Wal Mart for about $9. It is a "simply natural" VERY rich eye cream. It comes in a .5 oz white jar with an orange label. It states on the package:
"Rich vitamin blends, plant emollients and humectants reduce appearance of fine lines and add moisture to dry under-eye skin making it look younger and healthier. Anti-oxidants provide protection from harsh enviromental effects, and herbal extracts of Aloe Vera Gel, Chamomile and Geranium supply needed moisture."
I bought this because of its consistency, this is a very thick rich cream. My fine under eye lines have been getting more noticable and at 35...I'm not likin' it!! I wanted something that gave me long lasting moisturization during the day/night. This seems to be very moisturizing and it didn't make me wake up with swollen eyelids--which most creams cause for me, this doesn't have any discernable fragrance as far as my nose goes, but it is NOT fragrance free, I guess to me it just has a basic "cream" smell--if that makes sense. At my Wal Mart there was only two of these on the shelf and they were both dust covered, but I think I might have found a gem! If you wear eye liner on your lower lashes during the day, I'm not sure this would be a good day eye cream, because it would probably make it smudge, but at night it works beautifully. I have never found an eye cream this rich before. I will list the ingredients at the end of this review, for all that are interesting. I have never specifically bought a natural product before, but I'm starting to think I've been missing out! I will update this in a week and let you know if I'm still loving it ...which translates into..no milia, lots of moisturization and less noticable fine lines. EDIT: This burns my eyes and makes them water like crazy when it gets into them. I love how thick and moisturizing it is but I have to be VERY careful and not get it close enough to my lash line that it can "seep" into my eyes. EDIT AGAIN: Stopped using this, its not worth my eyes burning and watering like crazy. Who makes an eye cream that you can't get near your eyes??? I think Wal Mart stopped carrying this and good riddance, trust me you don't want it. I started using safflower oil (see my review on it) and it works 1000x better, its become my HG eye moisturizer!!
