I have only been using this product for a few days but I love it! And I'm not easy to please ;-) I have tried umpteen eye creams, including ones more expensive than this, and not been as impressed.
I don't think any product can get rid of dark circles or fine lines but it can make them look better and I believe this is exactly what this product does, and very effectively. My makeup goes on a lot smoother after use and I think this is the key as subsequently my dark circles/fine lines don't look as bad.
If I find that my fine lines start to actually lessen as well over time then that will just be a bonus!
I also have sensitive skin and other eye creams have brought me out in milia etc but this has had no such side affects so far - will update if it does of course!
To apply it, I rub some of the cream on the back of my hand to warm it and then pat it under my eyes morning and night. I usually put it on not long after my shower in the morning so by the time I'm dressed and putting my face on it is ready to have makeup applied on top. The lady on the BB counter was very specific about the warming and patting approach to get the best results and it works for me. She also said you could apply it on your eyelids but recommended only at night.
The packaging has a nice high quality feel to it but I agree I would decant it for travel into something less cumbersome. I paid £38 for it which initially might sound expensive BUT you really don't need too much so I think this pot will last for absolutely ages! Plus, I have no problem spending this kind of money every 6 months or so if it works and makes me feel a lot better about an area that was starting to bother me.

I had been using BB Hydrating Eye Cream, but with winter approaching and the good reviews on MUA, I decided to step it up a notch to the Extra Eye Repair Cream. After 6 months of twice-daily use, I can't say that I like this better than the hydrating cream. It seems to never sink into my skin...just sort of sits on top until it is washed off. I do not see any lasting effects....no 'repairing', no lasting hydration, no difference in dark circles, no diminishing of fine lines. And my BB creamy concealer creases with this eye cream where it did not with the other.
The glass jar is substantial, which is nice, but not nice for travel. I had to transfer some cream into a small plastic tub for travel. (save your empty sample containers from other cosmetics....they are great for this!)
The only positive I can say is that it seems to be lasting a very long time. But for the high cost of this eye cream, and the lack of any noticeable effects, I would definitely not repurchase.

This eye cream is amazing!!!! I recently just purchased this as a dry skin sufferer I'm looking for anything that will help my chronically dry skin my eye area is especially is dry. Back to the product its white and opaque in color the texture is luxurious and I detect a very faint hint of cucumber upon application you can immediately feel how hydrating it is. it leaves my eye area glowy not greasy and It does bring down puffiness and fades those lines fast not that I have any lines I'm only 25 but I do have two faint lines under my one eye that I have had since I was 23 so I'm really hoping this will get rid of them In terms of dark circles it does brighten my eye area not get rid of them but I personally don't think any product can actually get rid of them completely. The price is very steep I paid $65 but looking at it and considering you only use a little amount this should last a very long time so this is an investment very happy with this and when I run out which won't be anytime soon will definitely repurchase!

I've used a variety of eye creams, from drustore to high-end, but I never felt like any of them did a lot for me. Then recently I went through a phase where my entire face was just SO dry and I felt like that close-up on Izma in the Emperor's New Groove - just hundreds of tiny lines. Gross. So I went looking for extra moisturizing products. This one had such good reviews that I went and bought it the same day, and I have to say, I haven't been disappointed at all. My fine lines have basically disappeared, and what I thought were the beginnings of lines at the edges of my eyes are also gone. I even use it on the little parentheses lines around my mouth (just the edges) where I tend to get really grossly dry, and it works on those too.
As for it being a 'repair" cream, I don't know how reparative this is, I just think it keeps my skin so hydrated that the fine grooves aren't there. I imagine that if I stopped using this, it would just dry out again and come back. That being said - why would I stop using it?
I use quite a bit of it, every night, and I slather it from cheekbone to browbone. I started out using just a tiny amount because I was afraid of milia - I've had experience with that before and I just couldn't handle it. It's been two months, and not even a hint of milia with this stuff, even though I use it generously now. Also, I swear my eyelashes are longer and thicker. Unforseen bonus!
I've never had dark circles, so I can't tell you if it works on them. But if you want something hydrating, soothing and plumping - this is the cream for you!
One last thing - people complain about the packaging, but that's one of my favorite things about this. It's solid, easy to find on my bedside table, and it looks nice. I like the thick glass, and unlike a lot of high end products, I don't feel like the heavy packaging is there to make up for not very much product.

This is hands down my favourite eye cream and I have used A LOT of the years. Im 35 and in my teens & 20s I LOVED the sun and sunbeds. By the age of 32 I had 2 big lines under each eye which were there even without smiling. I could barely wear concealer as the skin was so crepey & it ages me beyond my years. Thanks to this cream those 2 lines are gone and the skin is so much more moisturised its like its taken years off my eyes.I am so chuffed and what was once one of my worst features is now something that doesnt upset me anymore.
Im on my 2nd pot of this and will continue to buy. I do like the glass jar if you keep your make up looking nice & pretty sat on your dressing table but if you travel they are a pain as take up so much space in your make up bag. continued >>

There isn't a lot that I can add to the other reviews. I am in my early 30's and shamefully have never regularly used any cream or treatment on my eyes, even though I have been noticing dryness and the beginnings of crows feet. Lately my skin has just looked parched and dull.
I started cerave moisturizer for my face and bought this product for my eyes based on reviews. I can not believe the difference in my skin. My eyelids went from slightly wrinkled and thin to completely smooth and plump, and the skin really glows. Eye makeup glides on effortlessly and looks amazing. The light crows feet that are starting under my eyes look much better. I'm not kidding when I say my eyes look like they did at least 5 years ago. The only downside is the price, but it is worth it. i can skimp on other items, but this is one of those products that actually is worth it to splurge.

I've finally found my HG eye cream! In a perfect eye cream, I have two basic requirements: one that hydrates my under eye area to help with those fine dry lines that make up seems to settle into and something that wouldn't cause milia (those small white bumps I'm prone to that can creep up when a product is too rich or greasy). I found exactly what I was looking for in this product. I have tried many eye creams over the years and the search has been surprisingly difficult.
I simply follow the directions with this product and I apply to my lids and below my eyes at night and only below my eyes as a moisturizing prep during the day. The cream has eliminated my dry lines and prevents my under eye concealer from becoming dry or cakey throughout the day. Love, love this and very highly recommend!
Side note: This eye cream does made the claim that it reduces puffiness and dark circles, and I disagree. Since I did not buy the product in hopes of treating either of these problems, it does not influence my rating; however, if you're in the market for something that does, I'd look elsewhere.

I was introduced to this product about 8 months ago. First let me start by saying I've tried just about every under eye cream out there and pretty much all have left me feeling 'meh'. The BB sales assoc. suggested the extra eye repair cream would be a perfect companion to the concealers I was purchasing so despite the price tag, I gave it a shot. Boy am I glad I did--I Love, Love, Love this product! It has made a big difference in the appearance of my under eye area. No, it doesn't really do much for the dark circles, but there's been a noticable improvement in the fine lines and it definitely helps to do away with that tired look. My eyes just look brighter and well moisturized. And it works perfectly with the corrector and concealers--they essentially sit on top of the moisturizer which helps to prevent it from looking cakey or lined.
A few months ago while visiting the BB counter, my "BB girl" recommended the hydrating eye cream as a lighter alternative (I think I may have applied the extra eye repair cream with a heavy hand that day). I knew right away that it wasn't going to cut it for me. Thankfully BB has a fantastic return policy and I was able to exchange it for my HG product. I won't use another eye cream ever again!

I loved it that winter as a daily undereye moisturezer and it also behaved good as concealer base. For the night I needed something extra and thus used an Extra eye balm. I haven't reached half of it when it expired(( I won't buy it again since La Mer creme works nice both as a night and day treatment, but yes, this was a good thing for me.

This cream is pretty hydrating and thick, but a small amount goes a long way. There is sufficient amount in the jar which will last you a long time. However the jar is quite heavy so it is not travel friendly. Also it is really expensive but it did not actually reduce my dark circles. These reasons might be the cause of me not wanting to purchase again.

I am not impressed with this eye cream. It is a bit hard to apply under the eyes as it is not creamy enough. I don't think it is particularly moisturizing compared to the Hydrating Eye Cream which I think is an over all better product for the under eye area. *Update* I am beginning to love this eye cream. Very moisturizing and wears well under concealer. No irritation and so far, no milia. *

I like this eye cream. It's moisturising, it's not sticky or too heavy, and behaves very well under makeup. So far the best eye cream I've ever used for my very, very dry eye area is Laura Mercier Flawless Eye Cream, but it's ridiculously expensive, and this Bobbi Brown cream is a compromise I'm happy with.

Not as hydrating as I expected - the effect does not last all day - but it does help concealer go on easily and evenly. And no lasting change in fine lines etc. But that was probably too much to hope for!
the packaging looks nice but sticking fingers in the pot every day is a wee bit yucky.
I probably will buy again (though not for a while - this is very long-lasting) but more cos I haven't found anything better than because this is actually what I want.

The packaging of this eye cream is very sleek and sophisticated. I like the glass jar. The scent does not smell much, but it does give a very soothing sensation. The texture is rich and creamy.
Overall, this eye cream is very creamy and moisturizing, which is what I first look for in a eye cream. However, apart from moisturizing the eye area, I do not find it helpful in reducing any fine lines or dark circles. It could be a good anti-aging eye cream for some people. However, for the price, I would not repurchase the product.
Also, during the winter, if you live in somewhere quite cold, the cream would turn into a harder texture and makes it harder to apply around the eye area.

It's the perfect eye cream for winter months because of its thick texture and it really hydrates the area around your eyes. Just a little bit goes a long way. Make sure you rub them on your finger tips before you apply for a smooth coverage.

this is the best during the winter for those who need the extra moisture. a little goes a long way and I warm up and pat around the eye area. hydrates all day and I like this better than the clarins, clinique, kiehls, lauder and lancome eye creams. this is similar to la prairie's cellular eye contour cream- bit it's cheaper and even better! my search for the perfect winter eye cream has ended!

This is an expensive, but luxurious, THICK eye cream, just the way I Love them, that lasts a long time because you don't need much. I am thrilled that I have found my new HG eye cream!

Okay, not crazy about her pretty jars. NIce looking but not ver practical.
I am on my second jar of this eye product. I like BB Hydrating eye for moisture, but it does nothing for puffy and dark circles. This Extra eye repair cream works for all, lots of moisture and it really helps with the puffiness I have under my eyes, I don't know if anything will ever help my dark circles. Mine are really dark, so it may have helped to lighten them, but I don't think there is a product made that will get rid of them. I ran out a while back and bought Clinique All About Eyes Rich... I did not make it through the jar before I went back to purchase a new jar of BB EXTRA Eye Repair Cream. I won't go back to anything else... Thanks Bobbi!

I have been using this eye cream for about a month. Let me preface by saying Im kind of an eye cream junkie. I seem to continuously buy them, even when I have so many that I only just began using, I switch from one to the other daily. But all this has stopped since I found the Bobbi Brown Extra Eye Repair cream.

I first got this as a GWP and didn't have any high hopes at all. But I absolutely LOVE the thick consistency. Love love love it. Haven't seen an eye cream like it before! Instantly, from the moment you apply it, the skin feels sooo supple and nourished. I have what you call "dehydrated" skin around my eyes, Im 21 but have deep creases and lines underneath along with dry skin. Concealer ALWAYS creased unless I powdered it to death, which then meant I had incredibly dry cakey rough skin!! But my problems seem to have gone as soon as I applied this.

They say you are meant to rub it between your fingertips to soften the texture a little - then you won't have to drag it over your skin so much. But I dont do that. I apply a little blob under each eye and let it sit for about ten seconds. It seems to warm up on its own like that anyway, then I gently spread it and pat it in. Yes I am not minimalistic at all. I like to slather it on. But the first thing I noticed was - my concealer did not crease! I believe there are some 'cones in this, which would explain that. Having suffered from dry under-eyes for so long I was weary of any product containing alcohol or silicone. But this really really REALLY hydrates my skin. My skin has never seemed so supple. Even my boyfriend noticed, I think because it leaves a slightly 'glossy' finish there - or shall I say, dewy; you know... that fresh 'just moisturised' look. Goodbye to patchy scaly skin. Goodbye to dehydrated, aged looking, skin. Welcome fresh, dewy, moisturised healthy skin!

I can't live without this now. I keep the GWP size in my handbag, because sometimes at work if Im topping up my concealer (I have awful dark circles) I like to pat a little of this over the TOP to freshen it and keep it in place. Try that, it really works! If you find your concealer has too much of a matte dull finish, or seems too powdered.. add a tiny amount of this on top, patting it in. It will NOT remove the concealer in patches, it just blends it in more and KEEPS IT IN PLACE. Yes, *no creasing* whatsoever, no dryness either.

Im sorry I don't really have much to say on its performance as a wrinkle/dark circle reducer. I genuinely can't say I've noticed a difference in those aspects. However, I have tried so so so many products and none of them worked either. I guess I've given up in that department. But I think this cream fills the void somewhat, as rather than providing those long term benefits, it definitely DOES help in instantly refreshing and moisturising your under eye area so that your concealer application is so much smoother. No one would tell that I have deep creases or shadows when I use this. If in time I discover that through some miracle my creases and lines have gone I'll be sure to update!

Also - LOVE the fresh cucumber scent, mmmmmmm.

I purchased this right after the Christmas holidays, and used it all through the NY winter and into late spring. I found it did a phenomenal job at moisturizing the undereye area and keeping the skin supple. I used only a tiny amount, and warmed it in between my fingers before tapping on with my ring finger. I did not experience any milia, nor did it irritate my eyes. I also think this giant container will last forever, as I have hardly made a dent in the 6 months I used it, and I used it both day and night. This also works wonders for moisturizing dry patches.
I agree with others that the glass jar is heavy and cumbersome. Aside from that, I don't see any issues with the packaging. Overall, would repurchase and would recommend for those with very dry underye areas. For mr, now that the weather has warmed up, I've been using Lancome Genefique, which has a lighter texture. continued >>
