I didn't like it, it has no effect, and it burns.
I really liked this product. The leather is soft and there is no shine. It provides instant brightening and a refreshing effect. It also lightens dark circles, not just after the first use, but within a week or two of daily use. I will definitely buy it again.
At the moment, this is the only product that actually works out of everything I've tried. It's not a wow effect, but it does something. It's more convenient than patches. It didn't remove the dark circles (but I didn't expect it to), but it did reduce the morning puffiness (on the upper and lower eyelids) after the first use.
I put a drop on each eyelid on clean skin, gently patting it into the skin, repeated it twice. After 20 minutes, I applied hyaluronic acid, moisturizing cream, and then SPF.
I bought a large quantity of products, including professional ones from well-known brands, and in all cases, the effect was equal to zero. This is the only product that actually reduced puffiness under the eyes! I don't have dark circles under my eyes, so I can't say anything about that effect, but the serum helps with puffiness.
I did not buy it here. It helps me a lot specifically with the problem of under-eye puffiness. No other product has worked as well, it practically eliminates puffiness, and it has a cumulative effect. It should be used in combination with a moisturizing cream or serum. I find it strange to read reviews saying that the product does not work. In such cases, I believe it is either a counterfeit or the person does not have the issue that this serum is designed to address.
I bought this serum specifically for the swelling around my eyes. The other day, I cried a lot and my eyes became swollen. In the evening, I applied the serum and then a regular moisturizer on top. The swelling went down before I went to bed. I'm not sure about the dark circles, but it works really well for reducing swelling. When it runs out, I will definitely buy it again. Before I started using it, my swelling would last until the next day after crying in the evening, but now it goes away throughout the evening.
I bought this for my mom, and she has been using it for about a month now. She is extremely satisfied with the results, as there are genuinely no signs of swelling.
I have been using it for a month. There is no effect at all, except for a pleasant refreshing sensation. That's it. What else can you expect from a $9 serum?
I have been using it for over a week now and I can clearly see the results! It effectively brightens the skin around my eyes by a significant 100%.
I bought this product for my mom. She suffers from severe swelling in the lower eyelids, and cosmetologists were not willing to perform any procedures as they were unsure of their effectiveness. We ordered this product without expecting much, but it exceeded all our expectations. The swelling subsides, and we noticed amazing results within a week. It even reduces swelling from the first use. I highly recommend it!
I have been using this serum for 5 days, both in the morning and in the evening. After applying it, it is essential to use a moisturizer! I am 100% satisfied with the results. Swelling under the eyes and the consequences of lack of sleep can be forgotten. I never expected that in my 40s, these issues could be resolved with a cosmetic product! Thank you MAKEUP for introducing us))))))
I have been using this serum for a month. I am 37 years old. The skin around my eyes doesn't have any particular problems, no visible bruises, but there is sometimes slight swelling in the mornings. The main advantage of the serum is its good draining effect due to caffeine. The swelling really goes away quickly. Sometimes I apply it not only on my eyelids but also on my entire face in the morning to "wake up" faster. I always follow up with a moisturizer to seal in the serum.
I bought it from another website for 245 UAH and have been using it daily in the mornings for 2 weeks now. I had read reviews and was expecting some kind of "wow" effect, but as usual, when expectations are high, the result can be disappointing. I am 24 years old, with soft skin, no swelling, and frequent dark circles due to lack of sleep. As for the result, my skin has become softer, but I'm not sure if it's because of the serum or because I changed my moisturizer. The consumption is minimal, the jar is very large, and I hope to use it up within a year since it's a 30ml bottle. It does tighten my skin, as I forgot to apply moisturizer after using it once, and all the fine lines popped up and showed themselves to the world in all their glory. So, I only use it with a moisturizer, do not repeat my mistakes.
It works perfectly. It reduces swelling, brightens dark circles, and leaves the skin toned. Yes, it tightens the skin. But a serum is an active product, and actives need to be "sealed" with a cream. So, as soon as the serum is absorbed, it is necessary to apply a cream and there will be no tightness or wrinkles. It's frustrating that people don't know the basic rules of skincare and blame the skincare products for it.
The serum saved me in difficult times: it eliminates swelling by 100%. You can cry all day, use the serum in the evening, and in the morning, look as if nothing happened. However, no product can remove dark circles as they are a physical feature of the face.
This product effectively deals with swelling and eliminates dark circles. Its texture blends smoothly and there is a slight stickiness. It has a minimal consumption rate.
I ordered a second bottle, as the first one lasted me for half a year of daily use in the mornings. My skin is mature, 40+, dehydrated, and I experience upper eyelid puffiness almost every morning. It doesn't help with dark circles and bruises, and even more so with wrinkles (it would be foolish to hope for that), but somehow it manages to reduce my upper eyelid puffiness. So in the morning, I use patches under my eyes, serum on my eyes, and voila - I feel human again. It instantly tightens my skin and gives the impression of lifting the eyelid. At least, that's how it feels to me. Overall, I liked this product.
I don't know how, but it works! It instantly reduces swelling! Yes, some wrinkles may become more visible, I noticed a few when I squinted hard, but I think it's natural because water is being drained from that area. The skin becomes incredibly soft and doesn't feel tight (I usually spray my entire face and especially the area around my eyes with thermal water beforehand). The serum works, I'm satisfied!
This is the worst product I have ever bought!!! I purchased this product before, applied it a couple of times, and then threw it in a faraway drawer. It instantly absorbs and dries out the skin, tightens it, and makes all the wrinkles around the eye area three times more visible and deeper! Recently, I decided to give this product a second chance, applied it, and it instantly absorbed again, tightening all the skin under my eyes. Every day of use, the wrinkles became deeper and deeper! I used it for about 4-5 days, and it seems like the skin around my eyes turned into that of a 70-year-old lady, as this product simply negates everything, dries out, and only adds more wrinkles! It's a terrible product, I don't recommend it to anyone! I threw it in the trash to spare my skin from further torture with this ineffective remedy!
It absorbs instantly and tightens the skin, reducing puffiness slightly, but wrinkles appear twice as deep. There is not even a minimal moisturizing effect. This product may be suitable for young girls to hide puffiness after a sleepless night, but it definitely does not work as an anti-aging remedy. One star only for the absence of stickiness and scent.
After a week of use (morning and evening) - zero results. It neither brightened nor reduced puffiness. And by the way, it doesn't smell like coffee.
Sometimes leaves a sticky residue.
Swelling around the eyes has subsided.
Smells delicious.
Lasts for a long time, no doubt.
I have been using this serum for a long time. It lasted a long time! And now, I'm looking for it again, but it's not available ((((
The results are instant! Just a minute after applying, the puffiness and dark circles are significantly reduced. This is a magical product for those who are over 35.
It works, and it works instantly. It smooths out wrinkles and illuminates the skin from within.
Of course, it won't get rid of dark circles if they are genetic, but it will make the appearance more "refreshed".
I didn't buy it here as I found it cheaper elsewhere.
The serum is effective, and you can see an immediate brightening effect in the areas around the eyes where it is applied. I was pleasantly surprised, although it may not be as noticeable for those in dimly lit environments. I personally apply moisturizer on top of the serum.
I don't see any results whatsoever.
No changes.
I have been using this serum for several months now and it really works. My skin has become firmer, fresher, more alive, and nourished. By the way, I am 42 years old. I am amazed by the comments of some girls who expect miracles from just one serum. Any skin requires a comprehensive approach, and no serum can hide the effects of your indulgent eating habits. I give this serum a solid five-star rating, just like all the products from this brand. They all work, the key is to choose and combine them correctly.
I forgot to rate the product in my previous comment.
The serum is nothing special. I have been using it for almost six months, but it hasn't reduced my swelling.
