I have tried pretty much every eye skin product available in the department and specialty store, including Clinique and Chanel. I found that, in addition to costing an arm and a leg, each of the creams either did not live up to its claims, and/or caused an allergic reaction. Even though my experiences had left me a sceptic, when I read an article in a fashion magazine extalling the virtues of Olay Eye Lifting Serum, I decided to give this grocery store brand a try in hopes of replacing the Vaseline I had been forced to use. I realize no cream/serum can reverse, or even stop the progress of time. However, Olay Eye Lifting Serum has fulfilled my need for a gentle yet highly moisturising product that can be worn under make-up foundation.

PROS:
1) the product does NOT cause an allergic reaction; (with most other products my skin would become puffy and/or eyes would water);
2) absorbs well and does not travel into my cheeks and/or eyes;
3) is highly moisturising (YEY!!!) without being shiny and greasy;
4) reacts well with my make-up foundation/concealer and does not induce creasing;
5) can be applied on both upper and lower eye lids (with most other products the application is limited to lower eyelids only);
6) can be used morning AND night (I hate to fuss with too many products, especially when I travel);
7) the pump application ensures bacteria will not be transfered from your eye to the product and vice versa;
8) little goes a long way: half a squirt of pump is enough to cover the upper and lower lids of both eyes! The .5 oz size lasts a couple of months with twice a day use!
9) the Amazon price is outstanding, particularly on the Subscribe and Save plan; and NO TAXES!
10) I do not have pronouced wrinkles (yet), but I can tell you that the skin around my eyes is VISIBLY tighter.

CONS:
1) it does not make my skin look the way it did when I was twenty, but then I did not expect it to... ;o)
2) my dark circles are only minimal; when they intensify, it has more to do with genetics, dehydration and poor diet. No cream can combat that. Most eye creams that claim to diminish dark circles are actually TINTED (like a concealer, but less so). They cover the dark circle, they do not make it go away...

Overall, I'm happy with the product (moisturises and tightens without causing allergies) and its price (product is long lasting and comes with Amazon discount, free delivery and no taxes). Beats Vaseline, as well as the far more expensive products I used to use! I hope it works for you, too!

I am amazed at the look and feel of the skin around my eyes. I am 69 years old and thought nothing could change the crinkly look around my eyes. What a nice surprise. This eye serum is wonderful. Anytime one my age can find something that really works this well it is amazing.

All eye creams seem to come in tiny .5oz / 15ml containers. I supopse in a way it makes sense - you only use a few drops at a time, around your sensitive eyes. You don't want a giant tub of cream going bad by your bed for months while you get through it. In theory, by having a small container, just about when the lotion starts to fade and age, you've run out of it. I know with handmade lotions I make, the recipes say they'll last a month at the most before you want to discard them and make a new batch.

I really like the Olay Regenerist eye cream. The container is great - the little pump makes it easy to get out just the few drops you need. You put a few along your lower lid and then gently rub them into the area. The lotion stays put, and doesn't get into my eyes. It also doesn't have any fumes or aromas to make my eyes water. I'm the one whose eyes will tear if our cat wanders next to me and rubs my shoulder, so my eyes are generally rather sensitive.

You can turn the pump so that it locks into an open position, great for if you need to travel.

I use this each morning and evening. I really can tell the difference, that my eyes look less tired, that the skin looks more healthy. And really, it makes sense. All skin needs moisture to stay healthy. That skin beneath and around your eyes is extremely thin, so if any skin on your body is going to show dehydration first, it would be your eyes. People look at your eyes all the time when they talk to you, so they notice that pretty quickly.

The downside of course is that eye cream is rather pricey - but again, for the above reasons, I don't think it's as bad as it might seem at first. You use tiny amounts. The cream is specially formulated to be safe for use near your eyes, and to be light enough to absorb into that delicate skin. You really DO need to take care of that skin area in a special way, since the skin is so delicate. And it's well worth it to do that, since people who talk to you are generally looking at your face and your eyes when they do so.

I tend to be frugal, but this is one of the areas where I think taking good care of yourself is worth it in the long run.

This is the only eye cream/serum I plan on wearing. It does not swell my eyes out and drift into them as I sleep. I always said I would never wear eye cream and that they were a waste of time. Once I found Regenerist Eye Serum, I was hooked.

I would say this is a good product. I use it twice a day and I do feel a general tightening in the overall eye area. Also an improved softness in the upper lids. Its worth a try if you need a little lift in the area. If used in conjunction with Eye Derma Pod, the skin will improve drastically in a few weeks. Its a little pricy for the size of the bottle, but its Olay so that's not a surprise.

Started noticing small wrinkles & saw Consumer Reports had said the Olay Regenerist line was better or just as good as the more expensive products. So decided to try the Eye Serum. I put it on before bed & woke up to see improvement in eye wrinkles, and very soft, yet firm skin around my eyes that lasted all day. So I purchased 3 more of the Regenerist products to try! The Eye Serum is very gentle & didn't bother my sensitive eyes at all. Highly recommended. I can't wait to see what it does in the long run.

THIS WHOLE LINE OF REGENERIST PRODUCTS IS THE BEST...I USED THE EYE SERUM, THE FACE, SERUM, THE FACE SPF 15 LOTION AND THE CONTINUOUS NIGHT RENEWAL CREAM...YES IT ALL ADDS UP BUT I DONT EVEN LOOK AT THE PRICE ANYMORE...WITH RESULTS LIKE THIS THE PRICE DOSENT MATTER...I HAVE BEEN USING THIS FOR A YEAR STRONG AND I AM VERY ROUTINE WITH IT AND LET ME TELL YOU THAT I LOOK 2 YEARS YOUNGER...MY SKIN IS AMAZING, ITS SO RADIANT, MY SKIN TONE IS SO EVEN...THE LINES BETWEEN MY BROW HAVE TOTALLY SMOOTHED OUT AND MY FORHEAD LINES ARE GREATLY REDUCED...THE FINE LINES ON MY EYES ARENT AS APPARENT AND MY LAUGH LINES DONT SEEM AS DEEP...I GET COMPLIMENTS ALL THE IME ON MY SKIN...I WAS THE BIGGEST SUN WORSHIPER AND THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT SAVED MY SKIN...THE DIFFERENCE THIS LINE HAD MADE MAKE ME WANT TO STAY OUT OF THE SUN BECAUSE IT LOOKS SO GOOD!!! I ALSO HAVE THE MICRODERM KIT AND THAT WORKS REALLY WELL EVEN THOUGH I DONT THINK MICRODERM IS THAT GOOD FOR YOUR SKIN..ITS TOO ABBRASIVE FOR MANY...THE DAILY MINI PEEL IS MY FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD...YOU USE IT EVERY NIGHT AND AFTER 10 DAYS IT LOOKS LIKE YOU HAD A MINI PEEL...THIS IS WHAT REALLY CHANGED MY SKIN...I ALSO HAVE A HYDRATING CLEANSER AND ITS GOOD TO USE WHEN YOU JUST WANT TO CLEAN WITH MINIMAL EXFOLIATION.. THIS WHOLE LINE IS WORTH THE MONEY

I decided to give this product a try after reading some test findings that the Olay Regenerist line was rated #1 in wrinkle creams. I started using this product about a month ago and just after a couple days could tell a difference in my eyes with this product. I don't really think that it has made much of a difference on my fine lines but it has made my eye area tighter. The puffiness is decreased and my eyes just look better. I would buy this product again.

I use this along with the Regenerist Face Serum and I love both, but this eye serum definitely tops everything else I've tried. Its rich, a little goes a long way, and it really helps the bags and lines under my eyes. When I wake up in the morning, it makes me look well-rested even when I'm not. I definitely think that this eye serum is worth the money and I definitely recommend it to anyone.

I love Oil of Olay products. I have been using their facial wash and regular moisturizer for years.

I received a free sample of this eye serum and was so impressed! I'm 46 years old and the area around my eyes was very dry. I had tried other products, but they made my skin break out. This serum makes my skin feel very smooth and silky. People are always guessing me to be years younger and I think I owe it to Oil of Olay.

It's a little pricey and the bottle is very small, but you only need a small amount. It lasts me about 8 months. I make sure I never run out. This is good stuff!
