I received this product at a discount, gave it 5 stars and hope I get sent more free stuff.
I gave this item 5 stars but not because I have used it but because I didn't want to give it a terrible rating to look like a jerk.<br /><br />Here is the deal. I am looking for a good eye cream. Something hydrating, something to soften lines and help prevent new ones. Something that will not cause milia or other eye irritations. But how do you know if something works when 98% of the reviews on a product all end with the line - "I received this product free/at a discount for my honest review"?<br />Click on the reviewers name on any of these ratings and take a look at their other reviews. All 5 stars (for the most part) and ALL items they have reviewed in the past were "received at a discount for my honest review". Seems like quite a lot of these Amazon users collect freebies/discounts, "review" the product and then collect more and more freebies. Or maybe there is a cash incentive? I am all for smaller companies getting their name/product out there and using the buying public as promotion is smart but when that is all there is in these reviews, it's like the reviews are being bought. In fact, that is exactly what it is. Promotional pricing is one thing but when 99% of your "customers" are recipients of a deal, I know the reviews aren't what they seem. I am sure some are but most, especially those asking for a Yes to be clicked if the review was helpful so they can horde more free products, are absolute bunk. It's disheartening and a real bummer when you want to read REAL opinions. I am convinced that most of these reviewers, especially those with a huge list of reviews they received at a discount, don't even try the products. Some of the reviews have tons of reviews of beauty products. Am I to believe they use all of them? Bet I can find a lot of this stuff on ebay<br />Amazon is great for so many things but no matter how good the price, repeated freebie/discount reviews make me run for the hills.<br /><br />[...] HAHAHA
Rating: 5 stars
