This is so not worth the price. I think you can find much better creams that are cheaper and more effective. I used up the entire (small) bottle of this and didn't notice any changes in my skin, other than simply being moisturized. The scent is also too strong and messes with my perfume. I prefer Dr. Denese's neck cream, or just using a really good face cream on my neck. This, like so many of Lush's products, is a cutesy novelty at first, but then quickly proves to be overpriced and useless.

So this might not be the best review because I did not use this cream for it's intended purpose. While it is marketed as a neck cream, I use it as an eye cream because it promised all the benefits I was looking for around the eyes. Made sense at the time. Anyways, the packaging is great so far, although it will probably be a pain to get the last drops outs. It dispenses the perfect amount with half a pump and requires no finger dipping in jars. The smell is very unique, although not unpleasant. It absorbs immediately into the skin and leaves no residue or greasiness. In fact, nothing is left behind, that's the problem. I saw no improvement what so ever in my eye area after using half the bottle (quite a few months of daily use). No short or long term effects. So it might work on horribly scaly necks (physically possible?), but skip it for the eyes.

I've been using this for a while now and have to say I can't really tell that it's made much difference. The skin on my neck is quite bad and I thought this would cause some improvement but to me it's just like any other moisturiser. It does make the skin nice and soft when applied but I don't see the benefit of having spent almost £10 on a tiny bottle of this stuff over just using my normal face mosituriser on my neck. Not a fan of the smell but it's bearable but the expiry date is ridiculous, after paying that price I don't expect it to last 4 weeks!

I really like this product! After I applied it, the skin on my neck and decolleté feels very soft, looks eventoned and smells sooo nice! The cream feels very moisturizing, and it soaks right in, just leaving soft skin behind. no greasy residue. It didn´t cause any breakouts, too. And what I also really like is, that it comes in a pump bottle, so I don´t have to put my fingers in a jar all the time. I have to use 4-5 pumps with every application, though.

*~*~*~*Love this!*~*~*~* I epecially love the scent- very flowery & feminine. I use two pumps for neck & declotee' area. It hydrates my skin very well and makes it look smooth. I'm not sure of it's firming qualities, but I will continue to use and see.

I love Mirror Mirror. I use it on my neck and under-eyes. I let it soak in all the way before applying concealer under the eyes, though. I personally love the smell and I think it has made a big difference in my skin.

I really like the way this cream feels and it does seem to tighten the skin on my chest but I cannot stand the smell! It is really strong and smells like sandalwood mixed with chocolate or something. I was disappointed because everyone raved about the scent in the reviews.

Love this..the smell and feeling on my skin was awesome! Wanted a little more antiaging so I now mix it in my palm with philosophies c powder, derma e dmea and alpha lipoic serum, retin a cream and roehip oil. This combo has given me awesome skin. I've been combining these for three years and am guessed at 30. I'm 42 and will never stray from the mishmass that I make for myself! Really not that expensive considering other products once you get it all together. Hope this is helpfull to someone my age who is looking for there HG! I have yet to be disappointed.

I wanted to use this as a face cream, undereye cream and neck cream. Sadly, I think I can only use this as a neck cream. I tried this on my forehead as it seems that the beginnings of wrinkles are starting there- unfortunately it felt kind of harsh on my forehead area (itchy) and made it oily. I tried to use this on my eye area as I have the most awful eyebags and dark circles- unfortunately it didn't seem to do anything and kind of stung the area. I'm not too fond of the scent and it doesn't really appear to soften or firm my neck or really do anything except leave an overpowering scent. Nevertheless, I will keep using this product until my little bottle finishes although I find it pretty much useless. Edit: It seems to be getting rid of a bit of the sun damage on my neck- I'm upping the lipppies.

I've had this two years past the expiry date, and it's still as fresh smelling as the day I received it.
I got this as a birthday gift almost exactly two years ago. I used it religiously, and then kind of forgot about it. Like a lot of people, I do get obsessed with a product, but then am easily lured away by another similar product, and then I end up obsessed with that one (and promptly forget about the old one!).
I found this amongst my beauty products when I was doing a bit of 'spring' cleaning, but decided not to toss this, as the product didn't smell or look off.
First of all, if you're familiar with Lush, you're probably familiar with their Fever scent. Well, this is scented like Fever. For those of you who aren't in the know, Fever is a scent that is similar to Chanel No. 5.
This is a rich cream that is intended for the neck and decolletage-- to moisturise and firm the area.
I must say, it does a great job of doing just that.
I initially wanted this due to the scent (at that time, I couldn't get enough of Fever OR Chanel No. 5). I've always been diligent about slathering creams on my throat/neck and such. Gotta keep it nice and toned there, ya know?
I love that it's in a pump. WHY CAN'T LUSH DO THIS WITH MANY OF THEIR OTHER PRODUCTS? Perhaps it's because this product is in a pump bottle is the reason it hasn't gone off. Two pumps is all it takes to cover my neck.
Two for the other stuff, haha. A little does go a long way. It's quite rich, so don't let the small size of the bottle put you off on purchasing it.
I've even tried it on my face with great results! Yes, it's quite scented, but that didn't put me off, or cause me any problems (break-outs, etc). I'm generally not sensitive to such things.
The smell is one that lingers, but not in an overpowering way. It's quite nice.
Lush claims that it's the high amount of glycerin and the tiger lily extract that firms up the area it's applied to. Not sure about that, but it sure does a great job of firming!
It absorbs right into the skin-- absolutely no greasiness. Leaves the skin very silky and very supple.
I took one lippie off because I dislike it's lack of sunscreen. I have to apply a separate sunscreen, which I'm not too keen on having to do. If it contained that... well, this would be THE perfect product.
Aside from that, it really is perfect! I highly recommend this!

Pros:
High quality cold pressed oils.
Excellent packaging, makes me wonder why all of Lush moisture products aren't available in pumps.
Great texture, the smell is strong but it smells nice and fades eventually.
Moisture without heavy greasy feeling. Can be used in the daytime.
Plumps up fine lines, and can be used all over the face including the eye area (unless your eyes are sensitve to frangrance, then beware).
Cost. Has all the high quality ingredients of much more expensive Lush products but is only $21.95 for 1.7 ounces.
Cons:
No sunscreen.
Strong scent.
Bottom line, this is a really nice moisture lotion with great ingredients available at a drugstore price.

Very moisturizing, I don't know how well it is on wrinkles though, I haven't noticed too much of a difference with my fine lines. I was told to use this around my eyes, it's super moist, and I love that, but really makes my concealor melt into my fine lines. The smell is way too strong, I'm not much of a scent person when it comes to my facial regime, but the smell does go away after awhile (not totally, almost like a light perfume).
EDIT: Ive stopped using this around my eyes. the perfume in there gave me a bad reaction, as well, my old eye cream is better at keeping my concealer in place.

I bought this because i love the smell of fever, and was pleasently surprised at how soft it made my neck! Really really soft. Like, i can't stop petting my neck! Plus, the awesome smell lingers, but doesnt overpower. To me, it smells like a fresh greenhouse full of beautiful flowers on a sunny spring day. I'm not crazy about the pump though, i have to pump it like ten times to get the ammount i need, and then i feel greedy lol.

I have to confess, the only reason I bought this was for the scent! Cheap alternative to perfume and it has bonus benefits too :) It is actually quite lovely as a moisturiser. Nice and light, absorbs real well and may even tighten! Though I am sure that was psychosomatic (sp?). Heh but regardless, I will repurchase simply because of the divine smell! And if it does what it claims to do, the better for me!

I have wanted to try this for a long time & I finally purchased it a week ago. The manager @ the LUSH store told me that she uses this as an all over face cream & eye cream as well. I tried it under my eyes & WOW this makes a huge difference & doesn't get greasy etc. This is also wonderful as a chest/neck/facial cream! The scent is amazing yet stuble- this is def. a repurchase! ♥

I'm giving this a 4 because I love the scent, even though it's not completely successful as a firming neck cream. It's the same smell as the Fever massage bar, and reminds me of the discontinued Potion (which I loved). I can smell carnations in this, but it also smell like white chocolate, lilies, and roses to me. I absolutely love it. The cream itself is rich and very moisturizing. I love using this on my neck, although it only firms the skin a little bit. I do think it costs a lot for such a small bottle of something you really don't need (neck cream, eye cream, face cream... really, this is a marketing ploy). But then again, it's full of costly essential oils. If you think of this as a fragrance, it's a bargain, especially as it lasts 2-3 months even with daily use. I've bought this three times so far, and hope they don't discontinue it. My only beef is with the tacky plastic pump bottle, as it doesn't look very elegant and I'll have to cut it open to get the last bit. Then again, the packaging makes it durable enough to bounce around my much abused makeup bag. ;)

At first I was sceptical on neck cream - do I really need another cream for another area of my body - but after using this a few times, I am hooked. The smell is lovely, and you can actually feel it firming your neck up. I am going to use this religiously to avoid lines on my neck!

I generally don't bother with neck creams , like the reviewer before me I think one cream is good for face & neck. However, I make the exception for this as I absolutely adore the subtle scent this imparts to my neck. It is very feminine and warm (Jasmine, Rose, Sandalwood. Tiger Lilly Petals) but very soft. It does firm & moisturise the neck , when I use this the fine horizontal lines are diminished. But really, I am lazy and actually don't really care about ageing, for me it isn't a big deal, I really buy this for my sensory pleasure. If you are looking for a neck cream/discreet fragrance put some on your wrist and sniff it a few hours later- you will be hooked.
