nothing special, nice moisturizing eye cream that doesnt help with basically nothing.. either wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness or anything else, just moisture and smooths the fine eye area.
Any other brand will match this one.
a little expensive for nothing special.

Yet another eye cream meant for day use that balls up and flakes under concealer. I'll use at night, won't buy again, and continue to wonder if any products with active ingredients will let me put concealer over them.

I absolutely love this eye cream, and I will probably go back to it after using up what I have now. I do not have crow's feet or wrinkles in my eye area, but I was beginning to see the faint start of laugh lines at the outer corners of my eyes, which were greatly lessened while I was using this cream. I have never seen that happen with any other eye treatment I've used in the past, and I will definetly buy this again in the future-besides, I'm skeptical enough to want to know if the results were genuine or a fluke, and trying more than one bottle seems like a good way to find out! Possible update forthcoming....

The eye area around my eyes have become dry. I've never had this problem before. My face is still oily except the areas around my eyes. I'm still in search of my HG eye treatment. This eye cream is decent for someone who does not have a very dry eye area. It does absorb well but that is about it. This does not moisturize well enough for me. I definitely would not repurchase.

Incredible. This stuff is doing wonders for my eyes. It goes on a little sticky but the anti-wrinkle benefits are worth it. It's rich, and interesting smelling for sure, and EXPENSIVE. However, there's a lot of science backing it, so I do appreciate that. It's formulated specifically not to migrate into your eyes themselves - good thing, as I have had that trouble in the past. Fuzzy contacts - no good.

This comes in a little jar, so you have to stick your fingers in it to use it, that's my one complaint. Don't like the potential germ-spreading, so I have to wash my hands before applying this.

This is the best eye cream that I've ever used and I'm on either my 4th or 5th bottle. My problem with eye creams has always been that it's either greasy or too light or burns or has fragrance or whatever. My only requirement for an eye cream is adequate hydration without turning my eyelids into a greasy mess, no fragrance, no irritation, and a hygenic tube or bottle. I don't buy into any claims of reduced puffiness or elimination of dark circles or erasing of wrinkles. Be realistic ladies: can a topical cream really do that much? Of course not. DDF Nourishing Eye Cream is on the expensive side ($48 or a .5 oz bottle) but it works for me, is easy to get, and a little goes a long way. I use this both during the day under my makeup and at night on both upper and lower lids, and it works just fine. Please note that although this is called an "eye cream," the consistency is more like a lotion. I love the pump dispenser even if it bothers me that I can't open up the bottle to get every last drop of lotion. I've yet to experience any creasing of my eye makeup although I should mention that I always always use either UDPP, TFSI, or a cream eye shadow such as MAC Paint Pots or Bobbi Brown under my powder shadows. I never wear powder or cream shadows alone, always both together and sometimes even cream shadow over a primer.

If you have the money and you need a good AM eyecream then this would be good for you because its very like and absorbs quickly. i assume it would be good for women looking for an eyecream with antiaging properties because it has anitoxidants. however, for the price i would not repurchase. the vitamin e eyecream from the bodyshop works just as well for less than half the price. all it did was moisturize. nothing special. and if you're REALLY in need of an antioxidant eyecream you could try neutrogena they have one but i havent tried it yet but that next on the list for me:)

I have tried many eye creams and this one is the best for me. I have sensitive skin prone to millia. I have been using this for 3 months and I find it moisturizing. No millia or other reaction as well. I don't believe that any eye cream is going to turn back time but I do recommend this if you need a moisturizing eye cream with stable formulation of antioxidants.

I was looking for an moisturizing eye cream with SPF and the MA recommended DDF, but the store was out of it. So, she gave me samples of this cream instead. I've tried it three times and each time I used it it burned upon application. Why did I use it three times, you ask...well, I wanted to make sure it wasn't anything else possibly interacting with the cream giving me the reaction & I wanted to give it a chance. Well, that now seems like a dumb idea since I just ended up prolonging the discomfort. This cream instantly irritated my skin, and although the burning sensation eventually wore off, it clearly isn't the cream for me. I don't know what is in this stuff, but it doesn't seem appropriate for such a delicate area of the face. I definitely don't recommend it and luckily it was only a free sample I used since I believe it is quite expensive. Waste of money!

Just not enough. I like a more hydrating cream. For the price, I don't think it was worth it. One interesting note, I didn't have any reactions to this like others, which is shocking since I'm extremely sensitive.

this was given to me as a sample at Sephora.. my under eye area is always dry, so i will always say this first in any review. i expect a lot out of an under eye product, because i feel like they never really last for more than an hour. this product definitely did last for at least half a day, and was pretty hydrating, but i cant say that it did any sort of magic. it didnt burn me after applying it, and actually felt cool and refreshing under the eye, maybe i would have seen more improvement if i had used it for a longer period of time.

This eye cream is OK. It doesn't hydrate very well. No as good as the Kinarese Intensive Eye Cream.

I think that DDF is a very effective skincare line, but this eye cream does not work for me. I don't have sensitive eyes, but I thought I would give this hydrating, gentle eye cream a try. Gentle???? It burned upon application and apparently I am not alone. I love the texture and the way it looks under make-up though.

This was a sample with sephora and although it did not feel bad going on, it really did not moisturize well. I woke uo three days into my sample with several small pimples around my eye area when I usually have for the most part in the pimple catgorory pretty flawless skin. Ick.

Sorry but I got this as a sample with a Sephora order and it did nothing but burn up my eye area! I was peeling and red the next day after using it one time. So this product is no go from me. Maybe it is just my skin chemistry but this was the first DDF product I have ever tried so I won't be using them any longer. Trying out the Peter Thomas Roth system and so far I like it.

I'm so glad I tried this cream via a Sephora sample as opposed to wasting money on this product. It is probably the worst eye cream I've tried. Moments after application, my eyes began to water, itch, and burn. Note that I was careful not to get any of the cream in my eye as I applied. This was too irritating for me.

I bought this under false pretenses I think...the SA at Sephora told me that it would be a good anti-aging cream, but it says nothing about that on its packaging or on the DDF website. All it is is a moisturizer. I use my normal face moisturizers on my eye area and have done that forever with great results. I got convinced that this was an unacceptable practice, although no one was able to give me an explanation of why. Anyway, I ended up buying this even though it sort of stung my eyes when I tried it in the store. After a few days of using it, my seborrheic dermatitis came flaring up on my eyelids because this cream is too rich (although not as moisturizing as you'd expect for the richness). Luckily I stopped using it, or it might have given me millia too. Overall I was far less than impressed...my regular moisturizers are way better and less sticky. It took me two years to get rid of that skin condition without having to use any medicated creams anymore, so I especially don't like this product because it brought that back (it's gone again now). I should also mention that the packaging is gigantic, and 50% of the size is just the cover of the pump. Also, it is nearly impossible to get the right amount out of it...sometimes you get barely anything and need a second squirt, and sometimes you get a huge gob. Soooooo not worth the money. Plenty of creams have antioxidants so this one is really nothing special at all.

Since I like other DDF products, I thought I would try this. Half-way through the day, the skin under my eyes started to burn so badly I had to immediately wash it off. The next morning, I had small blisters, and the lines under my eyes were red and inflamed. Since other people seem to have had great success with this, I'm assuming that there is a particular ingredient to which I'm extremely sensitive. I have never before had trouble with an eye cream, so I don't think my skin is unusually sensitive. I'd advise caution in using this product

I bought this on the adv of fellow MUA'ers last year.. it was my first eye cream. Unfortunately, it gave me milia and did more harm than good--I wanted badly to believe it would work for me, but no such luck. I still don't know how to get rid of the milia, but pevonia's eye cream (not gel) has helped..
