Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado Review

The Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment is my holy grail eye cream, and believe me, I have tried a fair few. This product is affordable yet luxurious, with truly visible results.

I purchased the Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado when placing a Nordstrom order. It was an impulse buy, although I had remembered reading a positive review in the past. Previously I had used roll on eye products for a refreshing pick-me-up, the Clarins Eye Contour Gel for dark circles and age prevention, and the Lancome Visionnaire eye cream for a fiddly bit of brightness. All eye creams, gels and roll-ons that I had previously tried made a small difference to the undereye area, but I was reaching for them in the hope of preventing fine lines and wrinkles in the future. I really did think that this was the extent of what an eye product could do.

The Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment is in a 14g round, plastic container. I do believe it is also available in a limited edition larger size. The packaging is simple and lightweight, not overly luxurious, but not cheap either. It is standard size for an eye cream, but is PACKED with product. I can see a whole lot of product inside, and because it is in a tub, I will be able to access every last drop. The formula itself is tinged green/yellow due (yes, avocado oil is actually second on the ingredients list) and is oh so creamy. Because it is so thick and creamy (which I love), it doesn't absorb quickly or easily, making it more suitable for an overnight product. Do keep this in mind if you prefer a product that can be reached for both day and night. Only a very small amount is needed and like any eye product, this is gently patted over the undereye area. There is little to no scent. I use this product every night, and have been for over 3 months.

The next morning the results are brilliant. My undereye area is significantly less puffy, often no puffiness at all. My undereye area is much brighter, and I certainly don't have to go so heavy with the concealer. I feel refreshed, awake and upon waking up, my eye area looks like it has already been awake for a few hours with an extra few glasses of water. I am 21 so I can't comment on how this product affects fine lines and wrinkles but it is very hydrating and I feel confident that I am doing my future self a favour. I notice a very visible difference if I do or don't use this product, and my eye area isn't even something I was overly concerned about. I can only imagine the results on someone who has more severe dark circles or puffiness.

I already have a backup of this product, even though I can see it lasting me a very long time. Eye creams last such a long time that I find $60 affordable, particularly for something that makes such a visible difference in my skincare routine.
