Nice cooling effect

This wasn't too of my to try list when I got this in my beauty box so it day unopened for a little while. This is a 30g tub that is used sparingly so it will definitely last a while. The product itself is a lovely shimmery gel which has a pleasant but soft aroma. This has a cooling effect when applied which seems to dry and tighten at the same time. Not sure I've seen any great results as yet bit I'll keep using it. Only downside is occasionally it seems to form a skin which when you touch round your eyes later comes off. I don't think it's visible to anyone else and it may just be me using to much product but worth being noted. Overall don't think I would purchase this product myself but it is a nice pampering treat for now.

Eye'm not sure about this.

I got this eye cream in the Staff Picks BBBE and I was keen to try it as I'd heard other people say they liked it, and I knew it was pretty pricey.

It comes in a cute white cardboard box with a pink lid and Dr Lewinns branding - attractive and pretty. Inside, a surprisingly small, white, pot holds the actual product.

The product itself is more gel-like and less of a cream. It is kind of silky-shiny-simmery-transparent all at the same time.

Once applied, it is refreshingly cool and absorbs very quickly. I really like the initial cool feeling. I have to say though, after using it for a while, I haven't really noticed any difference in my eyes. I really wanted to, and hoped I would, but I really can't see any changes. It hasn't reduced/revived any lines nor reduced any puffiness, nor firmed anything, as the product claims to do, so apart from enjoying the cooling feeling when the product is applied, it hasn't impressed me.

The instructions say to use sparingly and I have, so the pot will last for ages, but that's not really a bonus if it isn't doing anything. It has Vitamin A and collagen and elastin, so I thought it would do something - maybe it takes a lot longer than a few weeks to notice a difference or maybe it just doesn't work so well for more mature skin. Either way, I'll use it to the end of the pot, but I won't be repurchasing it.

Shimmer

I got this in the Incredible Eyes BBBE.

Packaging-wise, it has a very clinical look, in a white tub with Dr Lewinn's written on it.

Inside is a clear gel/cream formula with a gold shimmer. It looks very pretty and inviting.

The formula was thicker and more sticky than I expected, but it still applies just as easily to the face as a normal eye cream.

Once on, it takes a few minutes to dry and feels like it has a slight firming sensation.

Ingredients-wise, overall it looks pretty good. I'm not sure if I would repurchase at that price, but I'll enjoy it while I've got it.

Eye cream

I got this product in the Incredible Eyes BBBE. it is more of a gel than a cream and it has a luxurios shimmer to it. A little definately goes a long way so the product should last a long time. Probably a bit out of my price range but if i could afford it i would buy it. It is refreshing on tired eyes and i think it helps reduce puffiness and dark circles but not so much fine lines. I dab it on and just leave it to absorb into my skin. I accidently got a bit in my eye once tho and it stung quite a bit so a bit of care needs to be taken when applying it.

Not sure on this one

I love the look and feel of this product. I do enjoy putting it on, BUT I'm not so sure it really does anything. I have lines under my eyes and they definitely have not improved due to this product. The skin itself may be more healthy, but visually there is no change. I wanted it to work because I like the feel of the product when I put it on, but it just hasn't done anything...

Perfect in the morning for tired eyes

I received this in the awesome Incredible Eyes BBBE and have been delighted to discover it! Primary because it's so refreshing on my tired eyes and dark circles in the morning, and you don't even need to use much to get a good effect. I'm not that keen on tubs like this, as it's not as hygienic and good at preserving some of the ingredients that can oxidise, hence the 4 rather than 5 stars. So that's the negative bit out of the way! As for the rest, like I say, it's wonderful to wake up to, as it is a gel formula, and our bathroom is usually freezing in the morning, so the gel is always lovely and cool. This refreshes my poor eyes and perks them up on early mornings. It also tightens the under eye a bit, and fades dark circles a bit. While it's not cheap, I think it's good value for money, given the amount in the tub and how long it lasts for - as I said, you hardly have to use any to get a good effect.

Tips: Keep it in a cool place for an even more refreshing morning pick me up on tired eyes!

A little bit of Luxury

I got this in the Incredible Eyes BEBB, it was one of the products which made the box so easy to purchase & then glad I had. The 'cream' is more of a shimmery gel. I apply it after moisturising my whole face by dabbing it with a make-up spatula around my eyes and letting it soak in at night. Really feels like luxury with the shimmer and thicker texture. A little bit is all I use, and so the jar will last me ages! I think i might start using it day and night. I dont really suffer from puffy tired looking eyes (in my opinion) but I am finding it reasonably effective on my fine lines. It wouldnt surprise me if this jar lasted me a whole year as I have been using it for over a month now, every night and barely made a dent!

Great value for money - even if the initial outlay may seem high.

Instant firming action!

The day I received this I had terrible red puffy eyes and so applied straight away. It is a lot thicker in texture than other eye creams I have tried which felt a little strange but it really did work. The puffiness and fine age lines reduced visibly. I’ve never been diligent about using eye creams as haven’t noticed much benefit from the ones I have tried but now use everyday due to seeing results from this product. It is also a decent size so won't have to replace for a very long long time!

I have since noticed that it leaves a lovely creamy pale shimmer where applied. Apply strategically under makeup to enhance your eye area :-)
