The package claims that it helps diminish fine lines and wrinkles, well, it didn't! I used this product day and night for 2 weeks and nothing happened to my fine lines. I read it somewhere that this eye cream is ideal for younger skin, say, in the 20s. The cream is very moisturizing and rich yet greasy. Since it didn't work on my eyes I use it for my face as regular moisturizer now and it works great!

This was the first eye cream I have ever bought and will most likely be the last eye cream I will ever buy. I agree with all the other reviewers that this eye cream is extremely hydrating for under the eyes. I wear it every morning under my MakeUpForEver full cover concealer and it makes my concealer go on smoothly. However, I wouldn't buy it again seeing as it only helps to moisturize my under eye area which isn't my primary concern now.

This is a very dense, moisturizing eye cream. It brightens the under-eye area and seems to fill in fine lines. I think this is great for those in their 20s to hydrate and prevent, and for those with some fine lines to hydrate and minimize. My favorite is his truth eye creme with SPF for day.

Perfect for wintertime or when my allergies are acting up and my eye area needs some extra moisture. I like the balm-like consistency that's fast absorbing and doesn't leave any oily residue yet keeps the skin around my eyes hydrated all day. I can see this working as a basic eye cream for sensitive skintypes. Even when my skin is feeling raw and chapped, I can dab this on and it never stings. Really generous sized jar too. It'll probably take me over six months to finish one jar with twice daily usage.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS EYE CREAM. It gives a perfect description of what it does on the label: "allows you to smile and laugh all day, while it maintains the resilience of the eye area." While other eye creams sink into skin only to be rendered useless, this one hydrates throughout the day. It was my introduction to eye creams and I've tried many since, but this wins. I keep it in the fridge so it feels nice going on in the morning (and provides some puff control).

Pros:

--Extremely rich and hydrating for the price point.

--Generous amount of product (a full ounce).

--Basic workhorse, especially for nighttime and the winter months.

--Love the creamy almost balm like consistency, though it's not a balm.

--No smell.


Cons:

--No real anti-aging properties, except for hydration. A fairly straightforward eye cream. Won't do anything other other than protect and hydrate.

--You get a full ounce, but it's in a deep little jar, and therefore, not very sanitary.

--A little too rich for under makeup.



I may well purchase this product again, but I prefer a little more anti-aging WOW. That written, I will keep this jar in my rotation. Like it more than others I've tried, not as much as others.


(I recently purchased a .5 of Lancome's new 85.00 dollar Lancôme Absolue Eye Premium BX Replenishing Cream and it wasn't half the product that this is.)


But I'm not even half-way through this jar, and already frustrated with the jar depth . . .

This is a good product if you have very dry eyes and need a rich eye cream that wont irritate your skin.

I was suffering from extreme dryness and this product didnt cause any problems redness or pain. However i find it a bit basic on the anti wrinkle front and will probably not use again unless if I need something basic.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this product. I went to 4 diff sephoras to search for this eye cream finally I found it and they had exactly ONE left - just for me! It's a thick cream that feels heavenly on your eyes. My make up removal routine is a little rough on my eyes but I feel better after I apply this at night. I apply in the morning as well, but a smaller amount. I don't wear concealer/foundation but I do wear eyeliner and shadow and it doesn't affect the wear of these.

I think you look a bit fresher, and it's a nice eye cream. But it's not a miracle eye cream. And WHY the jar?.

The creme comes in a jar, which kind of sucks. It is not for helping with dark circles or puffiness, which is what I believed they claimed. But is more for those who are looking for some hydration, which it did. It doesn't leave any lingering smells, is thick but absorbs into eye area really nicely.

on the contrary, i really like this eye cream. I'm not picky about antioxidants or anything that promises any specific results. I just want something moisturizing, not smell like chemicals, and stay the whole day. It's not for dark circles, so that is a con, but i like how it keeps my orbital area hydrated the whole day. The packaging sucks. It's in a jar, and my lid already broke in less than a week so i have saran wrap to keep it from drying out. It has a really nice consistency too= thick yet sinks in quickly

I haven't had good luck with Ole products. They are just okay...or bad... This one is just okay. It doesn't stink (like most of the Ole products). It's a fairly generous amount for the money. It is pretty heavy so it will probably last a long time. It is too greasy to use for day-wear. I don't like the idea of all the chemical ingredients (after reading the other reviews, since I didn't read the ingredients list myself !!! :-( I'll probably finish this container but won't buy another. I'll stick with the organic, non-animal-tested products.

I really like this eye cream. it does feel thick but my skin absorbs it beautifully and my makeup/concealer goes on smoothly over it. It hydrates and adds the much needed moisture to my under eye area. I am not sure if it helps with lines, but I think it does as it seems to plump-up my skin making them less noticeable. I use it only during the day under my makeup. I recommend for someone looking for moisture - might not work so great on someone with oily skin. I have normal skin and really like the consistency of this product. Will buy again.

Hydrating, maybe a little too heavy. I get little white bumps when I use this twice a day, every day.

This is a decent eye cream and hydrated the skin around my eyes without irritating them. I don't have any wrinkles or lines yet so I can't really comment about the effectiveness of this cream in those areas This is as good my Clinique All About Eyes Rich so I don't think I'll be converting anytime soon, but I do like that it's unscented.

I'm going to say this about every Ole Henriksen product and not just the moisturiser...I'm sorely disappointed that you can claim that your product line is natural when clearly there are petrochemicals and silicone derivatives, fragrances and colourants being used. I bought an entire regimen i.e. cleanser, moisturiser, mask, eye cream on a friend's recommendation but I took one look at the ingredients list and I returned everything untouched and unused. Maybe I should have been more diligent but I for one think that if you're making tall claims that your products are 'all natural' and 'plant based' then there can be no place for the kind of synthetic chemical overload that you find in each of these products. Womenkind (and you lovely skincare loving men ;)) I recommend Dr. Hauschka instead...u get what u see/what u're told...100% of the pure, natural organic good stuff. Make no compromises!!

Looks and feel very basic - but nurtures the skin wonderful. No adverse reaction from my side - and my eyes are sensitive ! I love the ingredients, not too chemical. My HG for daytime now. Eyeshadow doesn´t smudge on it !
