Several months ago around June 2020, I was fortunate to receive products from derma e.
Here are the products. I already reviewed derma e Vitamin C Renewing Moisturizer (third from the left). For this post, I will review the eye cream second from the left.

Thoughts: When I received this eye cream, I was excited. During that time, I was using another eye cream from derma e and loved it. I couldn't wait to see how this one was going to compare.
Here's a closer look at the opening.
Here's a swatch of the product on my hand.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there's no noticeable scent while using. I just sniffed the product and there's no scent whatsoever. Secondly, I love the packaging. It's simple and the pop of red letters stands out. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of thick plastic. The top is also sturdy. You can feel a tight seal when you open and close the top. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's easy to throw in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. It's also easy to hold with one hand. I like that it comes in a tube. It's sanitary-safe since you don't have to dig into the tub. You have full control of the quantity you squeeze. Third, the consistency is creamy and medium. It's not too thick that it's hard to massage around the eyes. It's also not too thin it runs while massaging. It's a good consistency especially since you have to be careful around the eyes, the most sensitive skin. One thing I found odd is how liquidity it was when I first opened the package. You can see the picture above. The cream was coming out of the tube. After several usage, it got thicker and became the perfect consistency. With that said, it's easy to use. After cleansing and serum, I squeeze a small amount onto the palm of my left hand. With my right ring finger, I dab into the eye cream and pat around certain areas of my face. I focus around my eyes (under and around), smile line, in-between the brows, and my forehead. I learned a long time ago from a skin care specialist to use around the areas that have fine and thick lines. The eye cream will hydrate and improve the skin texture. Every since then I have been doing it without thinking. It became a habit. It spreads easily and absorbs quickly into the skin. It takes several minutes before it is completely absorbed. It's light-weight, not greasy, not sticky, and extremely comfortable. It leaves a soft, smooth texture and it's hydrating. With hydration, it helps diminish fine and thick lines. You have to be consistent with using the product to notice a difference. Lastly and since I have been using this product, the fine and thick lines have improved. It's not completely gone but it's decent looking. I'm glad I got this product. It's a good eye cream and great for preventing aging. I think will be great for all skin types, as well as, people in their 20's to 40's. If you are older, you might want something stronger. This is a good eye cream for hydration.
