Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado Review

My partner gave me this as part of a Kiehl's gift basket and I was very excited.

However I found it to be greasy and that it wouldn't sink in regardless of how it was applied (patted, rubbed). And for an eye product it sting like crazy if a bit happened to get in my eye.

Needless to say I was very disappointed.

I ended up using it to moisturise my elbows and knees - which it did a pretty good job of!

Definitely not worth the money (or sore eyes) in my opinion.

When I opened this product I was nervous because it seemed really heavy but it’s heaviness is why it’s so effective. It’s green as you’d expect from a product made with avocado and it’s very hydrating. I have very dry under eyes and this is probably the best eye cream I have found to help this issue. I don’t use this during the day if I’m wearing makeup as I find my concealer doesn’t sit very well on top of it. If you don’t wear concealer however it will be fine as you only need the tiniest amount. There are 2 sizes available and I’ve recently purchased the large one because I love this cream so much. It’s definitely not budget friendly but I expect to get at least 6 months out of the large size. This isn’t going to miraculously reduce wrinkles but it will hydrate to help minimise and prevent new fine lines.

I received my first pot as a gift and I would totally recommend to others who have dry to normal skin or are looking for a thick eye cream. This was one of the first eye creams I ever tried and it did not disappoint. Although it's a small pot, it lasted for a long time as it is very thick in consistency and you only need a small amount.

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.

I received this product as a birthday gift, and it's become one of my favourite beauty products to use nightly!

I am a fan of this brand and other eye creams, so I was thrilled to receive it. It is a small plastic jar, but packed to the brim with a creamy, light green cream.

The name itself promises a creamy eye treatment, and upon first touch you know it's going to be a winner. It's incredibly thick, and almost feels sticky to the touch, but it absorbs quickly and leaves your eyes feeling pampered.

I dab a tiny bit on my ring finger, and then use that bit to touch my other ring finger. I apply using light dots around the outer area of my eye. The product shows on your skin but absorbs quickly. It promises to not migrate into your eye (and cause irritation) and it lives up to this promise.

If you're looking for a creamy eye cream (I use mine at night), to splurge on or gift, this one is a winner!

The cream comes in a white plastic pot, and didn't do much to impress me. The cream itself is pale green and is super creamy. I use a spatula to scoop out a pea sized amount and use my ring finger to dab it around my eye. It's super creamy so spreads easily and really doesn't migrate or irritate my eyes. It's rich, but not too rich to irritate and my skin just drinks it up.

It is so rich so the small tub lasts a long time. It's the best eye cream I've used so far and I'll definitely repurchase it. My eyes look less tired and less puffy too!

I was really skeptical about the results I would get using this eye cream. Especially since the last time I got a sample of an expensive eye cream with groundbreaking ingredients I was left with dried out, hashtags and crepey skin. Yep, that groundbreaking, overpriced "top of the line" eyecream with exclusive ingredients made my under eyes worst and gave me fine lines I didn't have before! I got a couple of sample sachets of this eye cream and honestly didn't expect much because the ingredients list doesn't have anything overly fancy in it like heaps of peptides, retinols/retinoids, hylauronic acid, stem cells plus extracts from a newly discovered tropical berry/root deep in the rainforest that is an elusive fountain of youth....yadda yadda yadda. But this eye cream did wonders for my dried out crepey under eyes not because of the fancy ingredients but because of the texture. The team at Kielhs nailed the perfect texture for an eyecream to lock in moisture and not go into your eyes. It doesn't feel heavy but it packs a punch in terms of moisture and anything you apply under this that's hydrating just absorbs and the hydration stays under your eyes and plumps it out. Over time because your eye area gets more hydrated, plumped out and moisturized the fine lines get ironed out. Bye bye crepey undereyes! I know! Truly amazing! No wonder this is a cult product. Now I don't know if this helps with dark circles but I'm not complaining. In fact, I'm getting a full-sized pot which I imagine will last me for ages since two little sample sachets lasted me for weeks. I highly recommend this if you need some heavy duty moisture to plump out some fine lines in your eye area or don't want lines under your eyes at all, prevention is better than cure.

I bought this cream online after reading its reviews. Needed a change from my old eye cream that didn't seem to be working. I have been using this for about 4 months now and I love it. Comes in two sizes, travel size and one a bit bigger. Is quite expensive but it does the job. Is quite a thick cream so you don't need to use very much. I use morning and night, takes a wee while to soak into the skin and make up goes on fine afterwards. My eyes look so much better, fine lines are not as noticeable as they were before. I have recommended it to a few friends and they love it too.
