This product is the most moisturising eye cream I have used so far and it is also the cheapest!

It does not remove dark eye circles but most eye creams don't anyway so I don't really care about this marketing point.

Nice, basic eye cream. Not too thick nor too runny, no harsh scent, absorbs nicely. It's not fancy, but it does the job if all you need is light moisturization.

I really like it! The cooling sensation is addicting and refreshing, my puffiness is reduced and my skin is so smooth and moisturized for the whole day. The texture is really pleasant, it feels like a rich gel, after applying it feels tacky and looks a bit oily though. It also works as an eyeshadow primer as well!
My blog shows it being used as an eyeshadow primer.

I actually like this eye cream. It's light, and is absorbed quickly. It does hydrate my eye areas, and I can notice the reduced dry lines under the eye. So, I am quite happy with it.

I quite like this product. Although I don't think it really reduces dark circles, I can definitely feel the soothing effect when my eyes are puffy/sore from staying up late or crying all night. lol. I bought the jar maybe 1 year ago and there is still pretty much 3/4 left (mind you, i havent been using it everyday until just recently) but you seriously only need the tiniest amount, so it lasts you a really long time. I really like the consistency as it's really creamy/gel like. I think it's a good little product to have for people who just want a basic moisturiser for around the eye.

This is just a regular eye cream. The moisture it gives is okay, it's light and absorbs quickly. As far as reducing dark circles, not for me. I don't know about puffiness though since I never get that. However, I do feel the cooling sensation, which is nice especially in the morning. I don't like the packaging too much, it's a bit heavy and probably wouldn't survive a drop. I also don't like dipping my finger in the container because it's sometimes hard to get a perfect small amount and it gets under nails, annoying at times. Other than that, this eye cream is decent.
UPDATE:
I notice that the product loses the refreshing feel, after a few months.

This product comes in a pot which is just a bit silly for an eye cream where keeping things free from bacteria is so much more important. The pot feels decently heavy and expensive though. The cream is very lightweight and spreads around without sinking in, particularly since it's hard with a pot to get a small enough amount - I ended up spreading it over half my face to try and use up the amount on my finger. In general I either find eye creams are too heavy and bring me out in spots or they don't provide enough moisturising and make my skin too dry. This one somehow did both so I stopped using it. I didn't notice any particular cooling effect but then I didn't really care about that as I don't have puffy eyes.

The first two weeks I use this eye cream - I noticed a slight change in my dark circles, they became lighter (OMG!!!). After a few months, this stuff didn't really work on my circles =___=''' this is such a pity because I thought it would be THE eye cream that sort of works!

The price is not cheap, and the jar is a bit bulky...it's in sort of a tempered glass jar...and it's difficult to open without the jar flying out of your hand if you screw the cap too hard. This eye cream is not bad, but it's not a miracle either.

This is my usual eye contour moisturizer. I love that it's not meant to be anti-age. The are around my eyes is very well moisturized with this cream (I can totally feel a difference when I don't use it) even though I don't notice a huge difference in my dark circles (I always use concealer anyway). I'd love to try Clinique's one but it's too expensive and I'll just stick to this one.

Meh. Nothing remarkable about this product. I didn't expect it to really change my eye area, I have fully accepted the fact that I'm stuck with my hereditory dark bags for life. However I still want to keep those bags moisturized. I don't want them to turn into wrinkly sacks anytime soon. Also I appreciate a reasonably smooth surface to put my concealer on.
This didn't do much for me. The area didn't feel well hydrated once it absorbed - which to be fair, it did rather fast. Didn't provide a good enough base for my concealer. I've used stuff just as cheap that did the trick much better. I used the whole pot because once I buy something, I feel very guilty throwing it away, but it didn't cross my mind for one second that this would be worth buying again.
On the bright side, it's cheap and didn't irritate my eyes, so if you're blessed with excellent undereye skin and want something basic that absorbs fast, sure, why not try. It's not for me though.
