I requested this as a sample from dermadoctor.com based on the reviews here. As soon as I was through with the little packet, I got hooked. My eyes had dark circles and were puffy. After 4 days I noticed the puffiness receding and there was lightening in the area near my cheeks (understandable since I apply less towards the lash line). My eye contour area looks much better, is moisturized and feels tighter. That said, I've been using it for only a month so I'm not certain about its permanency. I just don't think the veins underneath my eyes can be made to disappear topically. I like it very much, nonetheless, will continue to use it and will get myself another jar.

Cons:
Price may be a drawback for some- $68 for 1 oz. I don't mind since I haven't even gone through 1/4 the jar after a month. I recommend purchasing at dermadoctor.com for the free & 2-day shipping.
Packaging- Took one lippie off for this. Given that it can last a while (at least for me) imo a tube would be better for hygiene and maintenance of the product.~UPDATE~ It's October and I'm *almost* done with it. Lasted a long time.

I've been using this for about a month now. So far I've noticed a faint lightening under my eyes (which are dark) and a faint improvement in the fine line under each eye. While most eye creams claim to do this, few deliver IME so I am fairly impressed. However I don't find this all that moisturizing. At night I let it soak in for an hour, then pat in a bit of Benefiance. As for the price, given the generous amount you get, I find it more than reasonable.

Would be my HG if not for the price. (on the bright side there is twice the typical amount of eye cream-- a full ounce) immediately and over time softens fine lines and moisturizes wonderfully. LOVE!

I have been searching for an effective eye cream. I bought this one based on reviews on this site, and I must say that I quite like it. The texture is a bit thick, but not too much. It seeps right into my skin and has caused no reactions on my sensitive skin.

I've been using this for two and a half weeks on a daily basis. It's definitely lightening up my circles and my wrinkles are improving. With the size of the container, I'll have plenty of it left for quite a while!

What a cruel joke. I got two free samples of this eye balm by requesting them off of the DermaDoctor website. After applying the cream two or three times, I noticed a very significant lightening of my hereditary dark circles. Nothing I've ever tried has made such a difference. I was thrilled at first, and decided I would use up my samples, then buy the full size, for sure. Well, on day four, I have a heinous rash/milia thing going on. I have tons of tiny reddish bumps under my eyes. Definitely not pretty. I've stopped use immediately and can only hope they'll go away relatively soon. And the search continues...

I got a sample of this from Sephora, so perhaps it wasn't enough to give this balm a fair trial, but I had no luck. It wasn't bad, it just didn't do much of anything except hydrate. For me (49, dark circles, some lines), RoC Correxion Eye Cream, Reviva DMAE Eye Serum, and Zia Ultimate Eye Cream are all more effective products and much cheaper.

This stuff caused an allergic reaction. I will never use it again. At first it looked as if it was working but then, poof, allergic reaction. There's too many chemicals. Try an organic cream without parabens- like avalon organics products.

This is my favorite "winter" eye cream. It's richly moisturizing without being too greasy. It helps my eyes look a bit more refreshed after a few hours of sleep. I don't know how well it fights wrinkles, and I don't have severe dark circles or bags, but it does help with the slight darkening and puffiness under my eyes. I got a sample from the dermadoctor websie, and I will purchase this once I run out. The price isn't that bad considering the size.

I'm in shock...this eye cream truly does work! All my life I've had extreme dark circles: they are purple/blue, bruise-like discolorations under my eyes, caused by the pooling/oxidation of blood in vessels. A week ago I started using a little sample of Dermadoctor's Wrinkle Revenge eye cream and started noticing each day that it wasn't taking me the usual two pounds of concealer that it usually takes to cover them. Today I woke up and my dark circles were a pale lavendar color, at least 4 shades lighter than they used to be. The cream itself is thick-ish, but not very moisturizing. I would assume the effects are temporary (i.e. for as long as you use the cream), but am curious to see if there will be even further improvement. As it is, my circles are 50% less severe, which is like a life altering event for me. UPDATE: As expected, the cream only works if used daily. A few days off and the dark circles are back to what they used to look like, so this is definitely not a cure, just a temporary treatment, albeit the best one I've ever found! Also, this is definitely not moisturizing enough, so I layer regular eye cream on top to lock in some moisture. By the way, apparently, Hylexin, the original "serious dark circle cream" has some of the same ingredients as the Dermadoctor balm. I got a little sample from Sephora to see it it worked better and used it for a couple of days. It did not, I repeat, did NOT work as well as for me as the Wrinkle Revenge Balm. In fact, I'm still not sure if it worked at all... It also contains gold shimmers in it, it's quite drying and seems to sting a little. I also hear there's tons of knock-offs out there with the same ingredients.

This is so far my favorite eye cream. Its uber expensive, but very moisturizing, calming, etc, but not oily. It's got great ingredients, but its not been like a miracle where it makes my lines go away, but it does help with puffiness and lines a little so far, but I haven't been using it too long. Great texture .. but I think it should be in a pump for stability and cleanliness.

I'm 34 years old and don't have any crow's feet, bags, dark circles, or puffiness, and I want to keep it that way! I used to use Lancome Primordiale eye but it was getting too expensive. This stuff so far has been working great. My undereye area seems tighter and smoother. Not greasy at all. Just the right amount of moisture, but my eye area is not dry anyway. I'm looking to prevent the signs of aging. I use it am & pm. It's also a big jar so it's worth the price. But since the jar is so big I feel gross sticking my finger in it twice a day! The jar will last forever!

First I want to say that I adore DERMAdoctor, especially their customer service!! You can ask them questions about skincare and the reply prompty. You can even request samples free of charge!! It costs nothing!! No shipping, nada!! I requested a sample for Wrinkle Revenge Eye Balm via this method. I'm really young (only 19 years old) but I have dark veiny circles under my eyes (no wrinkles). I heard that this stuff helps w/ that so I gave it a try and WOW!!! I saw results the next morning after ONE treatment!! I used this only a few days now and the results are just astounding. My veins are barely visible now. I'm not sure if everyone will have the same experience. Maybe I had abnormal results 'cause I treated them really early? Who knows, but this stuff works!!! You don't need much at all. I still have the majority of it left from one sample pack and I requested two. Maybe after using these two packets they'll disappear forever?? That would be awesome.

I don't think of this eye treatment as a moisturizer...I think of it as an anti-wrinkle cream. You know, I hardly use anything any more that doesn't make a significant impact on my skin...I'm too old and fighting time to use foo-foo anything anymore, so I use heavy duty treatments with science to back them up. This is one of those products, along with a script Retin-A product, AHAs and BHAs at every turn, anti-oxidants, and derm treatments as I can afford them. I've tried samples of the most expensive skincare in the world...Revive(another MD line)...and while wonderful, I sure can't afford it. The only thing Revive has that DERMADoctor products don't is their "Epidermal Growth Factor"...I guess I'll never know what I'm missing. Also, the Revive tends to be greasier than my lovely DERMADoctor products. There's truly no other skin care line that I'd consider using at this point for serious results. I also use MD Forte, some Obagi, some SpaMD, and some really nice Murad products. I switch around frequently because I give my skin what it needs at any given moment. Works for me. The DERMADoctor products have become my cornerstone workhorses. They're initially expensive, but the eye treatment will last forever. Give yourself the pleasure of these wondrous products, and give them at least a couple months before making a final call.

I really like this eye cream. No funky smell, works graet under makeup. Nice consistancy similar to bobbi brown hydrating eye cream. This does have EVERYTHING in it that you need ingredient wise. Dermadoctor says dryer skin types may need an additional moisturizer over this. Small white bumps under eyes that I got from who knows what product look smaller. I just started using this a few days ago. Any miracle occurs I will update. Also, HUGE jar for an eye cream which justifies the cost.

Although I liked how this cream absorbed quickly and felt nice on the eye area, I could only use this in AM b/c this is too light for my mature dry eye area at night. You do get a nice portion (1 oz)for the cash and it's ff so if you have oilier lids you probably will love this. Works well under makeup. I was a little disconcerted to see that they post a warning on the box instructing the user to not get this in the eye which is nearly impossible considering this is an EYE PRODUCT--WTF? It did burn slightly on my ocular rosacea so this will probably have to go back but I do have screwy skincare problems that won't apply to the general masses.

This is a fabulous eye cream. You need very little. It soaks right in and I saw results in just days. The best thing is that you can use it under eye makeup without a single problem and I normally have the oiliest eyelids in town! This cream sinks right in and almost works as a primer for eye makeup. I love this.

Wow, very large jar (1 oz) for an eye cream. Moisturizing feeling that dries down a bit. Can slather on all over, no stinging, no puffies, no cheek breakouts. I use with the matching moisturizer. Very nice for use when you have other treatment products in your routine (like AHA or retinol or differin, RAM, etc) that can make your eyes irritated and a bit puffy/wrinkly looking when they are too strong. Love.
