What creators are saying
TikTokReviewers love this eye cream for its hydrating, plumping effect and ability to reduce fine lines, praising it as a gentle retinol alternative that's kind to skin. The main drawback is the fragrance, which one reviewer found too strong for sensitive skin. It's best suited for those seeking anti-aging hydration who don't have fragrance sensitivities, though it may work well on less delicate areas like the neck for those who are sensitive.
