Review (3/5): A Thick and Rich Eye Cream.
EDITED REVIEW as of 9/25/21.
I came back to edit this review and to lower my rating from 4 stars to 3 stars. Here's why:
After a few weeks of using this cream, I started to develop some sensitivity to it. When I say sensitivity, here's what I mean: 1) The scent bothered me more than it did when I first used the cream. In fact, I started to sneeze most evening after applying it. 2) I'd used the cream on other areas of my face, and noticed minor breakouts in those areas.
Basically, I think the cream was just too oily for my skin. Even around the eye area, which has virtually no oil glands, the non-absorbency of the cream left me feeling sticky and greasy even though I gave the cream plenty of time to absorb.
End of Edit.

Everything else I said in my original review still stands. But the above edit may help you decide if this is the right eye cream for you.
If you're looking for a natural, plant-based eye cream that is ultra-thick and rich, you'll find it in this 2 oz. jar.
The jar will last a VERY long time, because you only need a tiny amount of this cream to cover the undereye area and the corners where crows feet form.
I'd advise putting the cream on a couple of hours before bed, since it takes quite a while to absorb into the skin. (If you don't wait, you'll end up depositing most of the cream on your pillowcase.)
I've also used a small amount of this cream on other areas of my face (nose to mouth lines) and the results were the same as around my eye area.
So what were the results? The skin around my eye area looked smoother and brighter after one night of use.
The results on other parts of my face were less noticeable, but I believe continued use of the cream will improve the results in both the eye area and on the face.
I'm rating the cream 4 stars instead of 5, because of one major issue I have with it, which is: THE SCENT.
The cream has a rather strong minty (?), menthol (?) medicinal smell that takes some time to fade away.
Since I prefer NO SCENT in eye/facial products, I deducted one star from my rating.
That aside, if scented products don't bother you, and you want a thick, rich eye cream you will probably enjoy using this one.
