Most Helpful Positive Review Love this eye care product-AMAZING product I have always taken very good care of my skin. I have spent probably thousands of dollars over the duration of my life time on different skin care products. Although finally at 52 I have found the skin care line that I am happy with it is very pricey. No one likes to spend $100.00 for 1 skin care product. So when I came across The Ordinary line I was super eager to try several of their products & so far I have loved them all in more ways than 1. I am a firm believer in a a few skin care products & a good eye care product is essential in order to retain a youthful look. From my experience the eyes, forehead, mouth & neck are the first to show signs of aging, other than the gray hair of course lol. I have been fortunate not to get a lot of gray YET lol. However my eye's look tired, puffy & have dark circles. So finding a good anti aging & over all good skin care line was essential for me. After years of spending thousands of dollars on different skin care products I was ESTATIC when The Ordinary hit the shelves. Every product I have purchased has done what it stated. As far as this product again it has done just as it states it will do, dark circles GONE, puffiness GONE, tired eyes-IMPROVING. I stayed tired chasing around my 9 years old child with ADHD so being tired comes with that lol . I just can not brag enough about this product & I hope Ulta continues carrying it because it is going to be my new go to- skin care line & I am certain anyone that try's it will feel the same. BRAVO to The Ordinary great work on your skin care line!! LOVE IT all!!
Most Helpful Critical Review Chemical burns around my eyes!!! The ABSOLUTE worse product ever and I'll definitely be returning. Read the one and two star reviews (I wish I had). Not to only did it make the dark circles significantly darker but I also have chemical burns around my eyes after a few days of use once a day as another person mentioned. The skin is raw and so painful it's has me almost in tears. Since the area around my eyes is so swollen I'm having to hold an ice pack over my eyes, cannot wash my eye area and the skin is crepey and dry. This company puts very vague information on their products and minimal warnings to stop use and contact a doctor if burning or irritation occurs. I should have read more about the product and ingredients on the internet instead of just going by what's on their box. Save the $10 or whatever it costs. I would have never bought knowing I'd miss work and spend 20 times what I spent on the bottle at the doctors office.

I'm in my 20's and have pretty dark under eye circles due to my fair and thin skin. I was doing some research when this product came up in a couple lists and decided to try it out. It's been about a week and I can tell that my under eyes are a little brighter. I put this on my eyelids and the outer corner of my eyes too. The skin under my eyes feel hydrated and so smooth to the touch so I am loving this brand. Trying to figure out which of their products to use for my whole face now :)
Not showing results after 2 weeks 2
erynmcgnugget from Midlothian, VA
I have been using this morning and night for two weeks, and haven't noticed any results. I have very apparent and genetically dark under eyes, so I wasn't super hopeful for this. If there is any difference in their appearance, it's pretty negligible. I will say that my eyelashes appear to be a bit longer so I guess that's a pro even though that wasn't the area I was necessarily looking to improve lol
Did nothing 1
Eclipse from Lake Forest, CA
Used under my eyes to help with slight darkening. I get filler so not worried about bags, but there's a little darkness there... no effect. Returned.
Great on the morning! 5
Aly from Miami, FL
I love this thing. I use it an the morning whenever I have puffy eyes. It reduces puffiness in 5-10 mins! I don't know if it works for dark circles because I don't have any, but it definitely works at reducing puffiness!
Love ittt 5
Em from < 3
I've bought this for myself and as a college student who gets minimum sleep, it works great for the puffiness! I bought it for my mom and she uses it night and day followed by a cream, and she loves it. My under eye makeup has definitely goes on smoother than what I had before which is what I love about it!
Not for me 2
Marlee from Atlanta
It irritated my eyes after using 4 times. Also caused red blotches. When applied around my eyes it would begin to sting a little. Maybe just not for me!
So far so good 5
Tina from Long Island
So far I'm loving this , no strong smell and feels really good when applied. Hoping it works well .
On my second purchase and I have found good results so far 5
Mj from Tampa fl
Did some research in this product came up numerous times it is a great price point and I am I went back for my second purchase. So far I have found that it does reduce the puffiness and I am glad with the results highly recommend
Great for dark circles! 5
Donna from Indiana
I have dark circles due to iron deficiency and I use this every morning to help. I really have noticed a difference in how light my eyes look. Of course I'm not expecting some insanely drastic change, but this really helps especially if I want to walk around makeup free and not look like a zombie. I have used it for a week now and my skin has responded well to it. Its safe on eyelids and undereyes.
Love this product 5
Ouala from Falls church , va
The product is pretty good it does not give any allergic reactions since I have a really sensitive skin. Also it's pretty cheap and lasts so long
Meh 3
julezlovescoffee from Wooster
It's good to add this into your routine. I haven't noticed a difference Good or bad. But I'll keep using it to see!
My under eyes look so much better 5
Emily from Seattle, WA
I love this product already! I have a natural facial bone directly under my under eye that accentuates my dark circles. This product is pure magic but I definitely see results. You don't need a ton, not even a penny size. Put it under your eyes and the surrounding area before bed and in the morning.
takes a while to see results 5
micheller from va
i got this in like may and am now almost finished with the bottle. at first i was unsure about it as i did not really notice a difference, but now looking back at pictures from before i can tell that my undereyes are a bit brighter and definitely less puffy. it won't cure genetic dark circles but now i feel i need less color correcter and can get away with just concealer. also my concealer goes on more smoothly and the weird little bumps i would get around my inner corner haven't popped up in months. i will definitely be repurchasing this now that i see the long-term benefits!! i would highly recommend but you do have to be patient
I would buy this product 5
Hunter from Miami, Florida
Overall, I would buy this product again. At first, I was skeptical as when ever I read the words, "Reduces dark circles" it typically doesn't work, but in this case, it actually did help, just not a lot to the point you utter "Woah!". *It does however work VERY well for reducing the appearance of under eye wrinkles and puffiness substantially. You will wake up in the morning to nearly no bags (not completely, but mostly reduced appearance). The best part is that you need very little to apply, maybe 1-2 drops, which is great as the product lasts for a very long time.
Not for me 2
Nina from St.Louis
I've never used this consistently as it's irritated my eyes, but I've never noticed any benefits from this. I put it around the contour of my eye (above and below). It shortly begins to sting immensely, and I rinse it off. The next morning my eyes are swollen and puffy. I can't say whether this actually works or not because I haven't used it consistently, so it may work for people without sensitive skin.
Great product 4
Tina from Chino
I saw noticeable results after just two weeks. I haven't been able to find a product that actually works for me and I've spent a lot of money trying to so its amazing that i found this one and its super affordable.
I did not see any difference 2
Ana from Aventura
I did not see any difference
Bacteria grows in dropper 3
Casey from Massachusetts
I only got to use this like twice and there was bacteria or something growing up the dropper. (The dropper never even touched my skin- I drop onto my fingers then apply to my face). I only saw one other review mentioning this, but it was concerning enough for me to return it.
I feel like my under eyes are brighter 5
Danarino from Florida
I use this all over my face in the morning. Mostly under my eyes. I am not sure if simply paying more attention to my under eyes is why I am seeing improvement or if this product actually does what it says to does. I do not usually use any sort of eye cream but I will use facial lotion in my eye area. Even still my eyes seem fresher after using this daily.
it's ok 3
anna from texas
it didn't work for me personally but ik people who this worked wonders for. not for me though
Depuffs!!!! 5
Reebs from Maryland
I use every morning as part of my routine. Within an hour or two the puffiness is gone. Only been using for a few weeks but all reviews I've read so far and what I've noticed is it hasn't made much of a dent in my dark circles but the extra baggage that 2020 created under my eyes has decreased dramatically and the just woke up puffiness disappears quickly.
For extra moisture I'll add a rich eye cream over it as well.
Broke my undereyes out?? 3
Lj from CA
I had really high expectations for this product as I have bad genetic dark circles & have heard great things, but for some reason every time I use it my undereyes start getting irritated. Nothing crazy, but it's there. Red patches about 4 cm big, and they go away if I don't use it daily. So just a heads up if you have really sensitive skin like me!! It feels great otherwise.
Yes 5
Mare from Modesto
Much less puffiness
Meh 2
Beth from Oregon
I haven't noticed a difference, and it burns my eyes (I could be very sensitive!)
Other eye creams/serums work better for me, I just really loved this price point so I thought I'd try
Might be my new go to product! 5
Tay from Columbus, OH
My old fav product stopped selling a smaller size of it so I gave this a try. It will last forever and is cheaper than what I was buying before! Absorbs really fast and doesn't leave any grease around eyes. Plays well with other products. Great results (less darkness under eyes). I might make this my new go to eye treatment!
