I used the product for about two months and then had an allergic reaction to it. It was pretty bad and I had to go to the doctor. I didn't really noticed any difference in my eyes during the two months. I'm glad that it works for some of you, just not for me

I co-sign everything that MaryEllen wrote. I also received this as a sample. I couldn't believe how much I loved it. I went through two samples before I finally accepted that this eye cream is as good as I initially thought. I gave away my other expensive eye creams and have been using this solely without any regrets.

Agree with everything reviewer MaryEllen said. I also received a generous sample with my skincarerx.com purchase. Has a wonderful moisturizing feel to it, and yes after I was done with the sample, my dark circles were definitly lighter. Makes sense b/c it contains peptides and vitamin K -both proven to lighten and brighten. And even though it has retinol it didn't irritate my eyes for once! Maybe because it's some kind of pure retinol which is advertised on the packaging. I don't have wrinkles yet so I can't review it on that but for everything else it works so my guess is it would help with wrinkles too! I think I will be purchasing this when I run out of my current eye cream.

I received a large sample of this and, having used it for a few weeks, feel that I can review it fairly. It's great! It has a lovely, midweight texture, applies easily, and absorbs immediately. Only a tiny amount is needed to cover the undereye area and browbone. Sine I started using this product, I have noticed that my fine lines are less noticeable, I have less puffiness even upon awakening, and--get this--my gawdawful hereditary dark circles are diminished. I was not expecting the latter, so I was very pleasantly surprised. The claims include "illuminating" the eye area, but I notice no shimmer or artificial lightening additives. My eye area looks moisturized but matte after application. It does, however, have a great cocktail of ingredients, including retinol. I was worried about that, but, amazingly for me, have experienced no irritation of my skin or eyes. I am very impressed and have already purchased the full size.
7/2/11 ETA: I purchased the full size and it has absolutely wonderful packaging--a twist-up pump that's really unique, protects the product, and, best of all, allows great control over how much you dispense. (See photos.) Another reason to love this product!
