I rarely post comments on Amazon. I want to do it this time because through the years I have benefited a lot from the comments that people posted here, plus that this product does wonder to my eyes. I hope my opinions will do some help here.

My eyes have a lot of problems. I have dark circle, puffiness and since recently they started to grow winkles. Through the years I have been trying to find an eye cream that can help me with these issues. I tried almost all the department store products. I won't say that they didn't work but I can barely see any difference. Until one day I found this ROC eye cream(They carry another eye cream but it doesn't work as well as this one). Originally, I don't have a lot of confidence in drug store products but since it's in a reasonable price, I decided to give it a shot. In the next few weeks I saw my puffiness clearly shrink and some of my wrinkles disappeared too. I fell in love with this eye cream ever since. So far I have consumed more than 6 tubes and I just ordered another 4. I also share it with my friends and regardless what skin condition they have, they all have positive comments.

I'm 48, have chronic insomnia, work at a computer all day and don't drink enough water. That being said, the bags under my eyes are the size of your typical piece of carry-on luggage. Over the last six months, I've tried four types of "anti-puff", "anti-dark circles" and "serums": ROC Retinol Correction Eye Cream, Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roll-On, Clinique All About Eyes Serum and last month, I bought and tried L'Oreal Paris Collagen Micro-Pulse Eye Correction.

I bought the ROC product first. I followed all the directions and used it every day. I saw no change at all, even after six weeks of use. Then I got the Garnier product. It seemed to work somewhat. When I got the trial size Clinique product, I used the Garnier on one eye and the Clinique on the other, just to see which product worked better. The Garnier worked better, the puffiness wasn't nearly as bad, though the circles were still dark.

While on shopping trip at Ulta, looking for eye makeup remover, I stumbled on the L'Oreal product. It was around $12 and I had a 50% off of any product coupon. I've been using it on one eye with the Garnier on the other for two weeks. The Garnier was thrown in the drawer with the other failures. The L'Oreal product works. After two weeks, the darkness has faded, the small lines at the corners of my eyes have lessened and within 30 minutes of use, the puffiness is almost non-existent.

i've used a dozen different eye creams for months at a time and did not see any difference in my skin. after only 1 night of using this cream i actually noticed that my eyes were brighter, the dark circles under my eyes were lighter, and the discoloration at the outer corner of my eyes was lightened. I can only imagine the increase in progress i will see with time. MY ONLY PROBLEM with the product is the packaging. It comes in a metal type tube which i hate, and the product itself is very thin so if you store the tube laying on its side or hold it upside down the product comes out and leaks everywhere. I store mine upright though so i no longer have problems.

I have been using this product for about a week and have noticed a big difference already. I am 28 and have just one or two creases around my eyes that I am working on fading, and also as a preventative. This stuff works, and I will be trying other Roc products in the future.

A very gentle undereye cream. I have used other name brands which extensively irritated my eyes and made them tear all the time. This one is definitely a keeper!

It works - it really does - and better than some other expensive eye creams I've tried. This is the first one that I've used where I've actually seen results.

I'm a man, and have had dark bags under my eyes from staying up too late playing video games and watching TV since I was 16. Having used this product off an on for about a month I can say that I have noticed a difference in the color of the skin under my eyes. I think there would have been a greater difference if I had corrected my sleeping habits and applied the lotion twice a day instead of just when I go to sleep. This product however is by far the cheapest solution to dark eye circles and unlike most other product it can be easily obtained at a local drug store. Since I am young, I can't really comment as to its effectiveness on clearing wrinkeles but for those of you night owls out there who either dont get much sleep or spend a majority of your time looking at a tv screen, I would reccomend it.

How can I compare Roc eye cream to Lamer? Yes I can. They are both Made in France. Lamer The Eye Balm is $140 VS Roc Correxion Eye Cream $14 (Amazon). (both are 0.5 oz) I love Lamer but I also love Roc eye cream about the same. Only that I can buy 10 Roc instead of 1 Lamer. I use eye cream since I turn 20 and now has been 15 years of prevention. I careless about face and body cream but I do careful about my eyes. I never miss a night putting on eye cream. So Roc save me money. The company and product are reliable- that's very important. I can't speak for others but so far so good for me.

It's kind of funny that many of these reviewers expect immediate results. Really? You want years of wrinkles to disappear literally overnight? In that case, I recommend surgery...not over the counter creams. My experience has been nothing but positive. I have recommended this cream to several women after they have found out my real age and asked 'what do you do?' It works. I will say that it took a full 2-3 months to get noticeable results. I stuck with it, though, and now I won't quit! I will also mention that this is the only ROC product I have used that does not have fragrance--this is very important to me since I have eczema and sensitive skin. I actually use the eye product on other parts of my face, too. This is the best price you will find anywhere--especially on subscribe and save. I'm ordering here at Amazon now after spending way too much at the drugstore on this same product. I was kind of disappointed to see some low reviews here and did not feel they were justified. I recently learned (yes recently, I am gullible!) that some of the reviews here on Amazon are guerrilla marketers who are paid to support specific products. I am very cautious when I read these reviews now. So, take this review and do with it what you want, but I'm just a 40 year old mom who loves to shop on Amazon and give props to products that really deserve it!

I bought the ROC winkle face cream at Costco and it came with this free sample of ROC Retinol Correction Eye Cream .5-ounce tube. Sure, another glorified eye cream I thought. I didn't use it but used the wrinkle cream on my chin area (that shows my worst sun damage with fine wrinkles starting) and it was okay...didn't reverse the damage or change the skin texture.

I then tried the ROC eye cream a couple days ago because I couldn't find my expensive eye cream tube. I have one fine line of a crow's foot starting on my right eye, but my main concern is swelling and puffiness on my upper and lower lids which nothing helped. The first 2 days I couldn't figure out what was happening, my eyes were looking different but I was too busy to find out what was different. Today I gave myself a facial with the Clarisonic, worked around my eyes and neck, used dermabrasion and then applied the ROC Eye Cream. That was it!!! My bags and puffiness were disappearing, almost non-existent! I feel a tightness around my eyes now - in just a few days! I can't wait for longer testing to see if it holds up or if it's a fluke. I'm skeptical about beauty claims, being a Cosmetologist in California, I have seen many snake-oil products come and go.

This isn't a heavy cream, more of a rich, liquidy lotion...it's easily smoothed onto the eye area without pulling of the skin. I use it on the outer corners and smooth it under my eyes to my nose, then put more above my eyes from eyebrow to eyelash and onto my upper nose/eyebrow area...like a raccoon mask. A little seems to go a long way. I keep my tube in a drawer standing upright - as one reviewer said it's liquidy and it sometimes oozes into the lid if lying down, could be a heat issue as it's been hot here and I just started using this product. I can say NOTHING else I have tried made such a fast impact as this ROC has on my eyes. I use it morning and night and it's not too strong for my oily, Italian, fair complexion with rosacea. If someone finds it too strong, just dab some water around your eyes before applying a small amount and see if that helps lessen the strength of it. I have sensitive skin and so far I'm okay with the face and eye cream from ROC, even tho' the face cream has a strong scent to it, the eye cream is more neutral.

I give this 5 stars just for the amazing effect it had on my eyes. Everyone is different and what works for some may not work on others. I'll report back in a month and see if I still agree with this review.
