I have been using this eye primer for at least 6 months. It was my first eye primer purchase and it has done me well. The tube is easy to use, when you squeeze it comes out easily- not to much so there is no wastage. I don't have dark circles or puffiness really so I haven't noticed if it works that way. I do have fine lines and they haven't disappeared. I used it under my foundation and concealer and it seems to help give a nice, hydrated finish, no cakey patches, so I will keep using it. I won't claim it to be a miracle eye product but I am happy with the lightness and the way it absorbs easily into my skin, definitely not greasy.

Light and hydrating
Tips: Try before you buy- there are a few eye primers out there at the moment and they are too pricey to buy without sampling.

Makes dark circles disappear!
I used this under my foundation, however its something that you can definitely wear on its own. The texture is really silky and it has a shimmery quality to it as well that I really like. I have dark circles under my eyes and this makes them disappear. The makeup that I put under my eyes definitely stays put with this on!
Tips: Use sparingly.

Smooth under eye heaven
I'm so impressed by this product, I have bags under my eyes which means I get natural creasing, I am forever wiping cakeyness from my fine lines and it just looks horrible, when reccommended this this price nearly gave me a heart attack but I thought I'd give it a shot cause no drug store prouducts were doing much for me. Since purchasing 3 months ago I have not once had to wipe or clean up under my eyes, my concealer lasts all day and keeps its looks smooth and hydrated !! 10/10 from me
Tips: Also using a nice under eye cream 10 mins before applying primer can help a lot more !

Hydrating but not as good as standard primer
Smooth feel when it goes on, and a nice hydrated feel after but doesn’t fill the gaps smoothly enough for my liking for make up application like normal smash box primer. I think on its own leaves a nice feel. Just Didn’t really feel it was any better specifically for eyes.
Tips: Worn on its own with good moisturiser is nice, but not as good as normal smahsbox primers under make up.

I have big black under eye circles and I am constantly on the hunt for the best thing to hide those big black rings and this is the best cover up I have used yet! To make matters worse I also have fine lines too (damn you ageing!!) so I need something to cover up the blackness but also not be heavy and cakey and settle in my lines. I don't ask for much do I?!
Well apparently I don't because this has answered my calls. Yes seriously!! plenty claim to do both but don't live up to it.
It's very lightweight and soothing yet it does cover up dark circles it's like magic!! I have worn this on its own and blimey it hid those dark circles but didn't make it obvious that I was wearing anything. I also wear it under foundation and it is amazing it doesn't cake or settle in fine lines. It is so light weight and feels so silky on my skin. I find I only need to use a tiny half pea sized amount because it does go a long way. Yes it comes with a reasonably hefty price tag for the amount you get BUT it does go a long way and it does work. I feel like I need to buy several of these and store them as "back up" because I'm scared to be without
