I got this since I had small lines under my eyes and dark circles and also thought it might be a good preventative to start using something anti-aging now. This started to burn my under eyes after I applied for a few nights in a row. So I would take a break if the irritation became to unbearable. This should have put up a red flag for me but I thought maybe this is one of those products that it might get worse before it gets better,like retin-a. So I would continue using it every night until I couldn't take it anymore. I would then take a break and try to continue using it again over and over again. Meanwhile, after I began using this my under eyes became so dry and at times burned. Somehow,I finished the tube in all it's entirety and it wasn't easy!!! I noticed no positive aspects what so ever. My under eyes weren't even more moisturized ,they actually felt drier and the lines became WORSE under my eyes and they were deeper. Most of the time my under eyes became severely dry and RED and felt raw during this whole ordeal. I'm not sure if the retinal in this thinned out my eye area and that's why my lines became emphasized,all I can say is that it was irreversible and since it happened last year they never went back to normal. I do not recommend and I wish I had never used this. This was the worst experience with any product I have ever had since I am left with deep lines under my eyes now.

I used to buy this when I was a student as it is a good mid price eye cream. It has excellent moisturisation levels although I always had to leave it a little while to sink in before applying concealer if I wanted my concealer to last the day. Kept fine lines to a minimum but did have the tendency to sting a little on over tired, sensitive eyes and didn't prevent puffiness or dark circles. I did notice a difference when I stopped using this in as much as the skin around my eyes felt much drier. I've not as yet been tempted to go back to this eye treatment as still searching for HG eye cream and this just didn't cut it.

I switched from Olay to RoC and have been using this product for about a year. About a week ago, it started to burn my eyes when I put it on. I immediately stopped using it. It's probably one of the most expensive eye creams you can buy in a place like Wallgreens and I'm not sure that they really made any difference as I can see small fine lines under my eyes.

This is an amazing eye cream. I'm in my early 40's and have not had any serious issues with wrinkles but over the last year I have noticed bad eye bags (grey/purple swollen yuk!) that nothing has helped with. I decided to try this and wow. After only a few days, using morning and night, it has definitely helped! It's no miracle cure- nothing is going to make my eyes look like they did when I was 21- but the under-eye area is firmer, less puffy and generally I look much more rested and perky. I have sensitive skin so was worried about reacting to this like some reviewers but it has not caused me any problems at all. A really good product, and the only thing that has actually made a real difference to my tired looking eyes.

I have dry very sensitive skin.. This went on nicely at first, after some days the skin under my eyes was burning and irritated.
I can't use it.

I love this stuff, makes my under eyes super moisturized and smooth the next morning when I use it at night. I do not have any wrinkles or lines but I do have dark under eye circles. This product is not a miracle product by any means but it certainly makes my eyes brighter and primes the area for the following morning when I apply my concealer. I

I was only able to use this product for 2 days (day and night) until I HAD to return it. The product does go on creamy, but left me with a this nasty film around my eyes where I applied it. Worse part is it made my eyes sting and water throughout the day and night. I always apply my eye treatments before moisturizer and for whatever reason the left over from my fingers broke me out all over including around my eyes! The beauty consultant at the store said it must be the retinol not working for me and that at my age this cream is recommended for more mature women. Loved the packaging though, but the price is a little steep even with a discount coupon for a drugstore product.

I've been using this product for about two weeks now, and I haven't noticed any change on my dark circles area, like it was supposed to. Maybe it's just a matter of time and it will have the desired effect. I've read a review around here about someone who had dark circles from heredity and that there's not much you can do when you're in this case. I'm beginning to think I'm one of those. Anywho, this cream has surely improved my eye area skin... I don't have wrinkles yet but it's good to keep them away from the very first moment, right?
I'll keep using until the tube finishes and we'll see what happens then.

I've been using this for about 4 months and very disappointed. It did absolutely NOTHING for my fine lines or puffiness. I suppose it moisturizes well and I liked the texture of the cream, but that's about it. Didn't change the look of the skin around my eyes at all. Didn't even get rid of the tiny lines. Not buying again.

I know I'm really young to be getting eye cream for wrinkles and stuff. But I wanted an eye cream to prevent wrinkles and get rid of my dark circles. My mom uses roc and said it works really good, so I picked this up, not realizing that I need a light eye cream to prevent not to get rid of. (BTW if anyone knows of a eye cream which is light & prevents, please let me know) Anyways back to my review. I'm on the fence with this one. The first week I used this, it worked great. I saw my dark circles fading and it didnt burn, sting or tingle me when I used it. But then i started to notice when i put it on, it would leave this weird black residue, while i was rubbing it on it, the residue would build up in little balls of it and come off. Dont know what that was about. Also after the first 1 or 2 weeks, I started gettting a bunch of little bumps around my eyes, I dont think they were pimples, just bumps. & i NEVER break out. But They would go away, but then come right back when I would use the cream. Don't know what that is about either. 1 good thing though, the tube is small but it DOES last, i've had mine for like 3 months and still have way more than half the tube left. All in all I wouldn't repurchase. It faded my dark circles, but the side effects aren't worth it the $ 25. LADIES ;; if you are 25 and younger;; DON'T get this, you DON'T NEED IT. Save your $ 25. Get something lighter. & if anyone knows a good light eye cream please let me know. :] continued >>

I really love this eye cream. I bought my first tube in Paris when I found that I hadn't packed my night-time eye cream. (Fail.) I didn't want to spend a fortune on something that I wasn't familiar with, so I picked this up in a pharmacy, since I'd always read that RoC was a respected brand in Paris.
I felt slight tingling the first few times I used it, but it went away quickly. I love that this is in a tube, rather than a jar. I love that it smooths on beautifully & you can use concealer over it very nicely. Mostly, I love that my eyes look really fantastic when I'm using this. I will continue to purchase it. For what it's worth, I would definitely buy this even if it cost 3x what it actually costs. It is priced very well indeed! continued >>

At 34, I've started to notice the beginnings of wrinkles and crow's feet around my eyes. I've always had bad dark circles, and 2 toddlers have not helped. What sent me looking for this, however, was the discovery of milia on my eyelids, probably from some other greasy eye cream I'd been using. I did some research and found that retinol might reduce them. So I bought this and I have been very pleased. My eyes are noticeably smoother and my dark circles are also less noticeable. I don't know if that's because the general condition of my skin around my eyes has improved or what but I know my eyes look better and concealer seems to work better and not cake as much. The milia are all but gone. Very pleased. I also love that it's not in a tub I have to dig out with my finger.

I like this. It seems to moisturize well and it does not sting the eyes. I have seen no results with this though. I"m debating if I would buy this again because for the price I want to see some results, even if it's a tiny bit.

This eye cream states that it reduces under eye circles and erases wrinkles. Well, I've been using this cream for a month and I like it. I don't love it, but it is a good cream. First of all, I have dark cirlces from heredity and they are still there after using this cream. I didn't notice any mind blowing reduction in the appearance of them, maybe a slight lightening of them. But, I came to realize that nothing will rid heredity circles except maybe the possibility of some injections. On the other hand, I did notice a reduction in the little wrinkles I have at the corners of my eyes. In fact, those wrinkles are gone :) Also, this cream provides a nice base for concealer. The skin around the eyes are softer and smoother. I also love the fact that this has no strong scent and it didn't cause any breakouts or tiny white bumps (clinique aae rich-I blame you for that!) Also, I hate eye creams that come in jars. I love the tube that this comes in. Lastly, the price is affordable. I believe I paid $23 + change for this. I will continue to use this and hopefully the benefits will increase over time.

Great great product. It does exactly what it says and starts showing its magic in less than a week. I bought this for my mom who has dark circles around her eyes and kinda drooping eyebrows, and fine lines around and on her eyelids. Well, in a few days of using this product, she saw differences and even I could notice the change in her eye area. Woww! Her dark circles are greatly lightened, and the eye area has firmed up nicely and there is definitely a reduction in fine lines. LOVE IT!

A lovely, rich, moisturizing eye cream that I use nightly for the last 6 months. This is a great cream full of vitamin C, antioxidants, and retinol. It is packaged in a tube that keeps all ingredients stable. I have noticed that my under eyes feel really moisturized and my small expression lines around my eyes has significantly reduced. This tube seems to last quite some time as only a small amount is required.

Holy cow NOOOO. This GAVE me fine lines and like these seeable veins under my eyes! It's really gross! I am no stranger to eye creams and have tried many. Never before have my eyes looked so bad! I went through half of this and went back to an old one that will hopefully recover my eyes... I will not repurchase this.

Pros:
-Saw a visible difference in fine lines under the eyes
-Used everyday, it lasted a good eight months
-Nice creamy texture, not too heavy
Cons:
-Pricey for a drugstore eye cream
-An adjustment period, the product tingled my eye area (not in a good way) for the first two weeks
-heavily fragranced
-gave me pimples around the eyes periodically
Overall, it was a nice product and that gave visible results given time. Would I purchase it again? I'm not sure, I like the way this product worked but the cream might've been too rich for me since I got small pimples around the eye area every few weeks.
