Shocking Improvement
I am 45 and have been plagued with dark circles since I can remember. I've have tried many eye creams over the years and not a single one made a noticeable improvement. Cassandra Bankson is a huge advocate against eye creams, saying they are overpriced moisturizers. But I recently watched one of her...

Not good
Omg! I am so shocked! This serum made mine upper lids very wrinkly and swollen. Under my eyes there are small red spots. It almost like I have more darker circles. Hard to see on the pictures maybe. I have been using this product for 1 or 2 weeks now, once a day. I hope the damage will go away. I wi...

ehhkkk there's better options out there
This is literally the only product that's ever worked
Let me preface by saying, I don't write reviews. I've also tried nearly everything on the market for dark circles and puffiness. THIS. WORKS. I was shocked that after a week of use, my dark circles were almost gone, and so was puffiness.
Don't waste your money or time
Doesnt work for puffiness or wrinkles in my opinion makes them more noticeable. Would definitely not recommend. Bottle is almost gone and i hate wasting products and cant return. Just a big let down
Drying
nope dont get. I want to lokw it. it dries your undereyes. does not help with anything but adds dryness and tacky look.
Magic in a bottle!!
I had bought this product a few months ago to try out, but it sat in my cabinet because I forgot about it. I just started using it a few days ago and I'm already pleasantly impressed with the results. I inherited dark under eyes from my mother and I have a toddler. IYKYK. I use this in the morning and evening before moisturizer and I can instantly see a difference with the dark circles. It actually makes me look well rested LOL. All in all I am happy with this serum.
