I love this eye cream! Recently developed puffiness and dark circles under my eyes due to stress and lack of sleep. Had used La Praire and Clinique in the past, but weren't doing the job. I went on a search for the right eye cream ... tried a number until I came across this one about 2 weeks ago. It is the best and my eyes look great. The puffiness is gone and the dark circles are barely there! :) It is, as one of the reviewers said, custard-like, smells light but very good, is moisturizing and glides on without any problem, and very easy to apply eye makeup afterwards (in the morning)! It is a wonderful product, the best eye cream I've come across, and I highly recommend it!

I bought a sample of this on eBay and liked it enough to buy the full size. This little jar of custard-like goodness has a surprising number of good-for-your-skin ingredients, including shea butter, caffeine, squaline, and wheat germ extracts, among others. The product goes on smoothly--no need to tug--absorbs quickly, and hydrates well. (It's not a heavy-duty moisturizer, but it does the job for my dry undereye area.) It's great for day--concealer applies easily over it and it does not cause traveling--or night use. I find it mildly firming, it definitely smooths fine lines, and doesn't irritate my eyes. It smells faintly of honey, but not obnoxiously so. It's pricey, but most quality eye creams are getting to be in the $50 range, so I don't mind getting out the credit card. Recommended!

Not near as moisturizing as I thought from reading reviews. It really takes too much to feel it on. I got it on ebay for $10 plus shipping, so I don't feel too bad it didn't do much.

I've been using this eye cream for at least 6 months (I'm finally almost to the end of the pot) and have been quite pleased with it. My undereye skin always looks and feels smooth and healthy, and I absolutely love the aroma when I apply it. I will purchase this again.

I do not believe any product can remove the lines around your eyes. However, this product does soften the tired droopy eyelid effect I was starting to notice. It keeps my eyelid beautifully moisturized without making it greasy, meaning that makeup stays in place.
A little goes a long way, so the pot will last a long time and will negate the expense of the product over time. I will be buying this product again!

I really wanted to like this product after reading the reviews and seeing the price point. Unfortunately, caused my eyes to be severely dry. Also, the product did sting from time to time when applied. It just really didn't work for me. I guess it's back to La Prairie for mei

Great product. I've been on a search for an eye cream that will go well under makeup without causing flaking -- and it appears that I've finally found it. This cream makes my eye area so smooth and soft that I'm almost tempted to use it on the rest of my face/body (if only it wasn't so expensive!) I've only been using it for a couple of days now, and I like the results - but I am not sure if it has been doing anything for dark circles. I will report back long-term results when I figure them out.
Edit: I've been using this product for about three months now, and my love for it has faded. For that reason I am deducting a lippie. I have realized that it does not do a great deal for the look of my eyes. I believe it lessens the puffiness if I use it before I go to sleep and in the morning before I put on makeup. Apart from that, the dark circles are still evident and my eye area generally has not improved. However, it does still go on great under concealer, as it creates a smooth canvas to concealer to slide on evenly. Unfortunately the steep price is rather steep, so using it solely as a concealer base is not a motive for me to repurchase.

I started using this cream after being tired of paying too much for La Mer the eye balm. I find it just as good. It has become an essential in my beauty routine!

I purchased this eye cream after reading the reviews. I have to say, this is a great eye cream. I have been using it for a week now and my eye area is much softer. I don't think it is too heavy and it spreads nicely (not like some that I feel like I am tugging at my eye area). This is a keeper for me.

A friend turned me on to this eye cream and I was a little concerned at first because it's pretty rich, but I've gotten used to that and now I love it. It gives the moisture I need to keep my little lines away.

I love this eye cream. I have used many in the past and this is the best one I have come across to this day. I'm on my second jar. I use it at night and in the morning. It absorbs quickly, my makeup holds nicely on it and it brightens my eye area and smooths the lines. I love it!!

Very nice softening, buttery texture eye cream. Not oily and slightly scented, it covers well and softens the skin around my eyes. Visibly hydrating and improves the texture also. I am loving this simple cream around my late twenties eye area! Beautiful and simple,will be repurchasing soon (have 3ml samples from ebay which will last forever!).

I just love the texture of this, it is softer than butter. The light scent is nice too. This really smooths and hydrates my eye area and is not greasy in the least. As a bonus it is loaded with antioxidants. Definite HG material, even better than Bobbi Brown Hydrating eye cream, which was pretty darn good.

I just finished a nice little sample pot of Jo Malone Green Tea and Honey Eye Cream, and I'm hoping to buy a full size jar sometime soon. This eye treatment has a balm-like consistency that looks waxy, but it warms into a thick cream when it comes into contact with skin. It has a light honey scent, it absorbs easily, and it didn't cause any irritation or milia when I used it for two weeks. A pleasant surprise!

I have long been wary of vitamin C in skin care products for the face, knowing that my skin is sensitive. But my Malone SA gave me a sample of this cream, and it was a generous-sized jar, similar to those EL includes in GWP promotions. For free, I was willing to try it, and at first it seemed quite nice. It was non-greasy, softening, and it did seem to keep the puffiness down. However, in using it every night over several weeks, I was upset to find my undereye skin becoming increasingly sensitive and burning to the touch, so I stopped using it. I recommend that any women with sensitive skin request the sample jar first before spending $50 on the full-sized product.

Sampling works! While playing with the "little strips" at N-M, noticed the Malone skincare products on the shelf. SA gave me a goody bag; I split it with my friend. She took the Vitamin E cream (and loves it), I finished this eye cream and went back for more! I use La Prairie and am ALWAYS looking for more reasonably priced alternatives...esepcially to their Cellular Radiance eye cream, which at a whopping $250 a pop still gives me millia. The Green Tea and Honey cream, at $50 is comparable in price to Lauder/Lancome and much less than Chanel. An SA at Saks told me one time that once you use LP, you can't use anything else; I, and more importantly, my AmEx card are tryin' to prove her wrong. This is a medium-weight cream that soaks in immediately without leaving that awful greasy feeling under my eyes. Just ordered a Malone cleanser based on your reviews (free shipping at her site right now). Know her fragrances are the rage, BUT NOT ON ME. Have high hopes for the skincare, though; BTW, no animal testing. :>) continued >>

This is probably close to HG for me, and I have tried a lot of eye creams out there. It is a medium weight moisturizing cream for me. Probably won't be good for people with severely dry skin, but works great on my oily skin, esp. at night. Nice smell and consistency. My only complaint is that is comes is a jar and not a pump. Other than that this is a really great, and somewhat reasonably priced eye cream.

Probably the only eye cream I've ever finished! I love this as a nighttime cream, its very rich and soothing. Doesn't irritate at all.
