Most Helpful Positive Review Perfect for Dark Circles This product is amazing and does exactly what it claims! Probably my favorite of all the CeraVe line.
Really the dark circle relief and puffiness relief in the morning is what impressed me, I've been using it only a week and a half, so I'm still waiting for the darker circles at my inner eye to fade with further use. Already the main portion of my dark circles have faded to invisibility.
I use this product everyday once in the Morning and once at Night. I spread it along the orbital bone as my dermatologist instructed (VERY IMPORTANT, and the cream will reach the rest of the undereye area from the orbital bone area, don't worry) which will prevent the bumps/breakouts some people report using this (bumps/breakouts comes from getting it in the eye/tear duct itself, though it's possible some reviewers were just allergic so always patch test!). I also use the cream on my top lid because I have some dark/brown discoloration there and it seems to be helping that fade as well.
It's disappeared most of my dark circles almost completely and I can tell the skin under my eye isn't so thin anymore--I get itchy eyes a lot so the skin around my eye has thinned out and this product has countered that and started to restore the healthiness to the skin around my eye.
The only warning about this product I'd give is that it can sometimes mildly burn if the skin around your eye is thin--the burning will go away once you use this for awhile as it thickens the skin around your eye. It also burns pretty bad if you get it in your eye, so pleaseplease avoid that! And again only apply under the eye by feeling around the orbital bone (that bone under your eye) to avoid getting it in your eye and causing irritation to the eye, or worse, in some peoples' case, breakouts and bumps.
The only other complaint I have is that I wish they gave you more cream for the price. It's still a fair price, though, considering how well it works. But I've recommended this to a friend and will continue to do so with everyone I know who struggles with eye discoloration, puffiness in the morning and/or thinness of the skin around the eye.
Most Helpful Critical Review Moisturizes but doesn't repair... I used this product twice a day for a full month. To be fair, you should know I'm 41 and have that dreaded crepey under eye area. Here's my two cents:
I love that this cream comes in a tube because it makes the application very easy. The only con to this is that I have no idea how much product is still in there after a month's use. It still feels like there's quite a bit left, though.
The cream is a nice, thick formula and blends quickly and smoothly into the skin. I usually wait about 5 minutes for it to sink in before applying my makeup, and I have no problem with smudging.
Overall, it's a good product for the price. Considering the reputation of the brand and the fact that this cream contains hyaluronic acid, I was expecting better results. While it moisturizes well, it didn't deliver on repairing and restoring my under eye area.

DON'T BUY. SUPER IRRITATING. MADE FINE LINES WORSE. VERY DRYING. MADE NO DIFFERENCE. THAT'S ALL I GOTTA SAY!!!
I personally would not buy this again 4

Not a bad product but be VERY carful with what products you are using with it. I used this a few times with nothing else and was fine but as soon as I incorporated it into my skin care routine, (CeraVe face cleanser and Aveeno moisturizer) the area around my eyes broke out in a horrible reaction and I have had a rash for about a week now.
I swear by this !! 5

Doesn't do anything. Waste of $$ 1
Aracely from CA
I'm 21 and I have oily/combo acne prone skin. I had high hopes for this product but it does nothing. Yeah, it moisturizes my eyes but doesn't minimize eye bags/puffiness/wrinkles at all. Makes me look greasy too. I use Cerave's tub of moisturizing cream on my face as moisturizer and for my eyes, and it works just as fine if not better than this and you get 12oz for the same price!!!
This is my daily eye cream and I love it! 5

I've tried many eye creams, and this one is both affordable and effective. It's great!

CeraVe products are usually great, This one not so much. Burned and dried out my under eye skin.
Dried my skin 1
Ouch from United States
This dried my under eye area out so bad. It looked like sun burn with all the peeling. I had to stop using it in two days.
Doesn't work 3
Lay from Texas
This product doesn't really bring about any change for me. I've been using it for months maybe a tiny difference but really it's just a moisturizer in my opinion. I'll Still continue to use it though.

Absolutely incredible! 5
Anna from Anchorage, Alaska
Before using this product, my under eye bags and dark circles were so bad that concealer wasn't even helping anymore. After less than two weeks of use, a thin layer of tinted eye primer (not even concealer!) covers any issues I might want to hide. I've always had horrible under eye bags (my whole family does) but this product helps so much I don't even feel the need to put on makeup! LOVE IT! I've had under eye repair creams that sting or make my eyes water, but this one is sooo gentle! I cannot believe how FAST this worked, and how well! Will buy again and will always recommend.
Best eye cream 5

I have dry texture skin. I love this product
Only one that doesn't burn my eyes 5
Dana from Arizona
I have tried so many eye creams from mario badesco, elf, even a luxury spa brand eye cream that costs over $100. I decided to give this a try because I like their facial lotion. It is the only eye cream I have been able to use over 2 weeks because unlike all the others it does not burn my eyes! Granted I am 27 and this is more preventative care than trying to tighten any crows feet
does it moisture? yes? but what else? 3
EXPN from 07055
I've bought this because I really like the CeraVe line and thought oh an eye cream? and it says it's good for dark circles? wrinkles aren't much of a problem for me nor is dryness but I do have dark circles. (I eat well, sleep well, and overall a good lifestyle I just have no idea why I have these dark circles so this was the main thing I wanted to fix. the moisturizer is good and I have combo skin with a super oily t zone, but I don't think it had any negative effects on me but it also didn't work for the dark circles. I've used this product for 2 months and will continue to use it until it runs out but I wont rebuy it.
Dried me out 1
Camm from Atlanta, Georgia
I've been using the same eye cream for years but i finally decided to venture out and try something new as I've heard great remarks about Cerave and love their healing ointment. I'm not sure what ingredient triggered it, but I've never seen my under eye in such bad condition. It's supposed to moisturize but instead caused irritation. My skin dried out, then turned dark. (My family was asking who blacked my eyes) I discontinued use and over the next few days, the darkened skin peeled and flaked off. I had to return it. Be careful!
Love this! 5
Makeup Junkie from Toledo, Ohio
I have mature skin with a little puffiness, and a little bluish color at the inner corners of my eyes. I have been using the CeraVe Eye Repair Cream for 2 months, and have noticed a difference with less puffiness, and less bluish color. I love this eye cream, and the great price! I would definitely recommend to family, and friends!

Irritates my eyes 2
Kayla M. from TX
It's so strange how my eyes just don't like this cream. Everytime I put it on there's visible redness around my eyes and my skin feels dry. It's such a shame because it has such nice ingredients and it's a good price point, but something is definitely irritating my skin :/
Smoothing, works well 5
W from San Diego
This eye cream is thicker and does a good job smoothing the under eye area. It feels hydrated but not slick. The packaging could be more user friendly, but it's fine.
My eyes are so dry! 1
Nicole from Philadelphia
A few days after using this product I noticed my under eyes and eyelids felt super dry and tight and I thought maybe it was a face tanner I was using. I stopped using for the rest of the week and then picked back up. After 3 weeks I determined it was definitely the eye cream that was totally drying my skin (the opposite of what it claims to do!). I have read a few other reviews saying the same thing :(
It was GREAT! 5
Natalia from CA
