I had to try this eye cream due to the good reviews on MUA. I was disappointed though. It doesn't even come close to MK's Indulge soothing eye mask. I returned it after using it 4x. I have learned my lesson, I won't doubt my MK eye mask again!
P.S. Mk's is less expensive to boot!

I have allergies, and this product actually reduces the puffiness I get in my eye area. I am also impressed by how lightweight the formula is, yet how much moisture I get from it. Great product!

First of, let me say I am 20 years old and don't have heriditary(sp?) bags/circles but do have slight dark circles from staying up too late :) This cream works ok for me, does reduce puffiness in the morning and has helped to slightly decrease my dark cirles. Now, my circles aren't bad enough that I have to use concealer, so I don't know how this cream would fare for darker circles. It does feel really refreshing on. I have sinus problems and my eyes get really puffy and this does help. I don't use this religiously so I'm not sure if my review is fair to the product. The good thing if you are still interested in trying this product is that BBW does have sales frequently on the Pure Simplicity line and also they have a 100% guarentee on everyhing if you should be unsatisfied with the product. That being said, why not try this? I gave it a three because I have young skin and I'm using it primarily as a precautionary measure to wrinkles and for my slight dark cirles/puffiness and it works "ok" so it probably won't be anything great for somebody who is in need of a more "aggressive" eye cream. So a 4 for me and a 2 for others who probably wont have good results from this cream give it a 3.

If all you need is an eye cream to moisturize, this could be good for you. Especially if you have dry skin. Personally, I'm not really a fan of the eye cream since it is too greasy/oily for my senstive and oily combination skin. At the price of $22, I would recommend L'Oreal eye defense $12 or Neutrogena visibly firm which are cheaper.

This cream does not really do much of what it says on the package except for moisturize, slightly. At first I thought it was working, but now, not so much. I use to put it on in the morning, but I've steered clear of it now because there is just enough oil in it to give you racoon eyes (even w/ a e/s base). I use it at night, I dont' see any big difference in my eye circles, puffiness or whatever but at least it keeps the area from drying out. The price is not worth what you get for the product. It will probably last long since you don't use much of it but I'd rather not shell out the 22USD. A tip for those of you who hate dipping your fingers into the jar (I hate dipping into the jar too). I shake the jar a bit, turning it upside down so some gets stuck to the lid. Then I take a dab from the lid, eliminates stuff in nails! BOTTOM LINE: only works as a moisturizer for me, and is too expensive (in my opinion) if it has no other benefits.

This eyecream did not do anything for my dark circles. It did calm the under eye, but did not sell itself to me to buy again.

I like this eye cream very much. No product in the world has ever burned my face unless it specifically said it would so I don't understand where exactly some people are putting the eye cream, it doesn't mean eye as in put it in you eye, its around the eye. Anyway I love the fact that it has green tea in it, it smells very nice and leaves my eyes very moisturized.

I got a sample size of this Eye Cream - and I have used it for a week now.
It did a great job in keeping my eye area moist.... But aside from that, I didn't see much improvement in complextion, puff eye saggies and dark circles.
The cream has a very gentle scent and absorbs quite nicely. I would recommand this product to those with dry or pale skin.

I got a GWP size of this (which is really quite large) in a bulk lot off ebay. I expected not to like it from the start, and figured I'd just put it right up for swap (this wasn't even one of the products I was interested in, but it came with the lot), but I tried it anyways. It moisturizes well and my eyes feel refreshed, but for the price, you can get any ordinary eye cream from the drugstore. This does nothing special.

Thank goodness I received this free in a GWP, because it is horrible! I have no idea if this actually works because the second I put it on my eyes they started burning and watering like crazy. I immediately had to wash this off. My eyes/skin are not sensitive at all, but my eyes did not like this at all. continued >>

I got this as a GWP and it does a good job of hydrating the skin around my eyes. It doesn't break me out or give me milia. It is a little sticky and a bit pricey. I don't think that I will purchase the full size product.

This cream is quite thick (though not greasy) and was a bit much for my sensitive eye area. I would have prefered a gel, as this cream was a bit too rich for my needs. I hope they come out with something lighter than this cream, perhaps a green tea eye gel for more sensitive skin and eyes. **Update** i tried this again in the dry of winter & still couldnt use it. If anything, my reaction to it the second time was allergic-- red, itchy, swollen, stinging, BURNING teary eyes that looked like i was getting over a weekend of crying. Damn! Steer clear if you have sensitive eyes. continued >>

This eye cream is just okay. It helps with the puffiness and fine lines (to some extent) but not the dark circles. My big problem is that it can really sting my eyes, so I can't use this comfortably on a regular basis. Oh well, the search continues...

this is my favorite eye cream so far. ive only used this and shiseido benefiance but i hated the shiseido becuz it was sticky greasy and gave me milia (i'm 15) this one reduces puffiness and moisturizes very nicely. it is smooth and silky

I'm surprised at how much I like this product. I got one as a GWP when I purchased something from their new Pure Simplicity line. The GWP was pretty generous, as it seemed to be full size. The cream itself is plump and emollient, while not greasy. It sunk in nicely around the eye area and felt soothing. I don't necessarily feel calmed by it, but then again I'm not one of those people who has unreasonable expectations about my skincare products and the supposed miracles they promise to perform. It's a good eye cream, performs like a higher end one and at $22 is a bargain when you consider some of you out there are paying triple for a racket like La Mer.

So far I'm impressed with the product overall. It absorbs easily without any shine or greasiness. I'd like to think my eyes look a little better but no one's asked me if I've had a facelift yet!...THAT said: I hate products that I need to dig a fingertip into to scoop out. Half of it gets under my fingernail and I'm sure I wipe of $1.00 a swipe @ 22 bucks for this teeny jar.

I'm not a big eye cream type person, in fact, the only ones that I have ever used were either GWP sizes or ones that I had received in swaps. My fiance gets a lot of products free due to his job, and he passed this one onto me :)
I was sick recently and hadn't gotten much sleep, plus my skin has been extra dry due to the colder weather, so I was very excited to try this out. I put a tiny bit under my eyes every morning and night. I have very sensitive skin and I found this cream to be very soothing and calming. My eyes seemed fresh and brighter in the morning and I really think it helped to lessen the dark circles under my eyes that I got while I was ill (I had the flu and it was awful!!).
I walked into BBW today to check out the price for this and I was shocked to see that it retails $22.00. I'm not sure how much high end eye creams retail for since I've never purchased one, but that seems like a bit much to me for a mid-end product.
I used to think that most BBW facial products were...well...crap but I'm actually starting to change my opinion. I think I'll even shell out the $22 for this if/when I use it up.
Rave from me!!! :o) continued >>
