I purchased this to wear in the AM, in lieu of my HG Olay Regenerist Eye Lifting serum. The gel-like texture applies very smoothly; however, I don't feel that it 'settles' into your skin quickly enough.
This is the first product I apply during my AM m/u routine, followed by serum, moisturizer, primer, foundation, then eye primer. This usually has about 10 minutes to sit on my lids before I get to my eye primer step and it still balls up underneath it. :(
It's not a bad product, I just don't care for it underneath eye makeup. Since I don't go m/u-less that often, I think I'll return to my HG eye serum.

One of the best eye contour products out there, due to the gel base formula it's so safe to use on the delicate eye area! I keep it on the fridge and love the cool sensation, good hydration and the way it soften my eye area! I had no bad reactions with this product, smooth on well, perfect for de-puffiness and brighten the eye area. A cheap product but it doesn't mean it's bad, it really have tons of botanical ingredients (plant extracts). A keeper for sure, and will buy it again!

I love this product. I have very sensitive eyes and this is the only eye treatment that I have found that doesn't irritate my eyes. It has helped to brighten my grey circles caused from having respiratory problems and has helped with dehydration lines around my eyes. Since it is a gel I do keep it in the refrigerator and it is very cooling. I have noticed that if I use too much product it does ball up a little but that doesn't discourage me from this product... I LOVE IT!

I really like this gel eye cream. I was torn between the another brand but bought this anyway, and Its great for spring, summer time due to the gel consistency its cooling and doesnt break me out. It still has not done anything for my fine lines but I dont think any gel formula would. Its great for daytime too.

I do not like this eye gel. It seriously makes your eyes PEEL! Its too rough for the eye area. Even when I apply a small amount to my eye area it still makes it peel. I'm not satisfied with this gel.

I bought this product for my dark circles. It has really lightened them, which I'm very pleased with. (The circles are not completely gone, but still better than they've ever looked!) It is also good for puffiness.

This is the only product I've tried that actually reduces the puffiness under my eyes. It has quite a lot of quality ingredients for the price -- caffeine, peptides, retinyl palmitate, sodium hyaluronate. I only wish Avon would take out the methylparaben. (It's apparently not a good idea to wear methylparaben or retinyl palmitate in sunlight, by the way.) I wear this gel under my eyes at night, and a heavier moisturizer on my eyelids & crow's feet. Recently I tried a more expensive eye cream under my eyes, and my puffiness returned, so I went back to the Total Radiance eye gel and it again reduced the puffiness. It's not a miracle, but it does help noticeably. continued >>

This is a really nice eye gel, very cooling and easy to apply. I just wish it was in a plastic container, because I dropped it and broke the lid :(

Very good eye gel. Feels a little cool on the skin and I like how quickly it is absorbed. There are little reflective specks, but I don't notice them once it's on. Not sure if it does anything else except moisturise, but it's more than good enough for me. Will buy again once I finish.

I have used this eye gel for a couple of years now and recommend it to everyone I know. I have extremely sensitive eyes and this gel is soothing and not irritating like most other products I have tried. It calms the puffiness. Highly recommended. I wish Avon would package in a pump.

I like using a gel around my eyes; I have extra sensitive skin and cannot use a lot of products. Avon Total Radiance Eye Gel seems to work well for me and it is on sale a lot. At times, I use regular eye cream and put the gel over it. I have oily skin and that may be why the gel works so well for me. I used to use Almay gel, however, it is not made anymore, or at least I cannot find it and I like the Avon product just as well. With sensitive skin, one is lucky to find an eye gel or cream that can be used with success.

I am at the age where lines are forming under my eyes. This gel does a fantastic job in tightening the skin under my eyes and smoothing out those lines. The skin under my eyes is starting to brighten up too!

My mom and I recently recieved a ton of Avon products, althought the makeup was horrible and was returned- the skincare is fantastic! :) this eye gel is great for reducing puffiness, which I get often due to pesky allergies- within minutes of applying this my puffs fade away and the gel leaves a nice cooling sensation on my eyes. The jar I got was on sale for $8 and usually retails for $16, I am so glad I tried this before spending money on other more expesnive products. This product also claims to reduce undereye bags, I have a bit of dark shadows just in the corner of my undereye and since using this they seem to have gotten lightened. I'm very pleased with this, and glad I gave Avon skincare try!

Claims: "This soothing gel refreshes and revives the eye area. Minimizes the appearance of undereye bags and helps brighten dark circles."
I bought this b/c the Avon catalog compared it to Clinique AAE, which I LOVE.
PROS: Inexpensive (frequently on sale for $5.99). Very light and cooling.
CONS: Doesn't smell great (unperfumed, but has faint smell). Doesn't brighten dark circles.
Overall, if you're looking for tightening, this is a good product. However, for me, I need something more moisturizing (Avon ANEW 24 hour eye moisturizer works great for this!).

I was using Lumene's Time Freeze Instant Cooling Eye Stick and really liked it, but it was $20 and my CVS stopped carrying so I thought I'd give this a try since its so much cheaper, has caffeine (which is what I think works for me), and some peptides pretty high on the ingredient list, which the Time Freeze didn't have. I keep this in the fridge for use in the mornings to reduce puffies. It works pretty darn good for that. Its moisturizing for a gel, absorbs quickly, and has a tightening effect that I really like. My fine lines and puffiness are noticeably reduced. I haven't tried it on under mu or concealer so I can't speak to that (I only leave it on for about 1/2 hr, then shower it off and use my staple day time eye cream. The effect lasts even after I take it off). Comes in a .5 oz heavy glass jar, which I like. Smell is mildly of witch hazel, which is the 2nd ingredient on the list. I like that smell, but it disappears quickly. Normally $12.99 but its on sale right now for $5.99. For that price will definitely buy again.
