I put this product on in the mornings and the primrose scent is very appealing. This product has in two weeks greatly improved the appearance of dark circles under my eyes and it is the very first product I have EVER tried that made a noticeable difference for me. It goes on light, it is non-greasy, it has SPF with zinc, which gives the faintest hint of shimmer giving eyes a lovely dewy appearance. I have very slight fine lines under my eyes at age 29, and the product definitely diminishes them, but does not erase them. The product is also fantastic for dry skin and when I have puffy eyes in the morning, it soothes them almost instantly. Overall, a great product that I would definitely recommend. The only possible detractor I could see would be women who like a really thick undereye cream will be dissapointed. This one is very light, which I actually prefer, but I know some don't.

Don't waste your money on this or the DDF Eye cream with SPF. (Posted a review on that one too).

Comments about Korres Natural Products Evening Primrose Eye Cream SPF 6, 1.01 fl oz:
I have been using this eye cream for over 1.5 years now. This is my 4th I believe. Beauty.com is the last remaining place to buy the 30 ml tube from - Korres recently changed their products (for the worse), and on their website it now comes as 20 ml tube for the same price. So I really wanted to get the older, larger tube while I can. With that said, the expiration date on the one I ordered is May 2012. On the other hand, other Korres products and natural cosmetics also have short shelf lives. Which doesn't mean I wouldn't use them after that date. But be warned. The nice thing about this cream is that it doesn't irritate like multiple caffeine containing eye creams. Caffeine promotes water extraction from the skin, and it certainly makes mine dry, so it's a mystery to me why would anyone shove it into eye creams. I use a different eye cream at night, but in combination of the two, I have not seen a single wrinkle form in the past 2 years. As for the dark circles claim - I cannot comment as I have never suffered from the phenomenon. Those who do - I heartily recommend visiting a doctor rather than smearing on one cream after another.
Also, I like the tube packaging - much more hygienic than wide mouth jars and much more compact than wasteful pump-bottles.

Comments about Korres Natural Products Evening Primrose Eye Cream SPF 6, 1.01 fl oz:
This product did not work for me at all and I'm in my late 20s. The area below my eyes is dry and I have a few fine lines and this product did not help with either. I tried using it for a few weeks, then stopped using it to compare the results and I did not see any difference. I got better results with vaseline.
Side note: I think the reason it says not to use it on your upper lids is because if it gets in your eyes it BURNS!

Comments about Korres Natural Products Evening Primrose Eye Cream SPF 6, 1.01 fl oz:
With all the rave reviews, I really was expecting more from this product. It is ok as a moisturizer but other than that, I really would not recommend it. I did not see any improvement in dark circles or fine lines. For the price, I was expecting more.

Comments about Korres Natural Products Evening Primrose Eye Cream SPF 6, 1.01 fl oz:
I received this cream as a sample, and after using it once had a bad allergic reaction ( eyes swelling,etc. ) I have had this reaction before with other products targeted to dark circles, but haven't had this experience in a long time. I wish I knew which ingredient I was allergic to so I could avoid it in the future.

Comments about Korres Natural Products Evening Primrose Eye Cream SPF 6, 1.01 fl oz:
I am excited about this product. Even though it is pretty pricey, you use such a small amount, I think it will last forever. The only thing I didn't realize is that in the packaging it recommends that you keep it away from upper eyelids. That is very disappointing to me as I was looking for an eye cream for my entire eye area. I haven't used it long enough yet to know if it's effective, but it feels nice and doesn't have too strong of a fragrance, though I wish it were fragrance free.

Comments about Korres Natural Products Evening Primrose Eye Cream SPF 6, 1.01 fl oz:
After all the stellar reviews for this product, I had high hopes. I was very disappointed to find that it creates a strange texture on the skin under my eyes. Not sure what that's about, perhaps it's just me. Feels good going on and seems to brighted the under eye area, but the over all results were a let-down for me.

Comments about Korres Natural Products Evening Primrose Eye Cream SPF 6, 1.01 fl oz:
My favorite eye cream ever. Highly effective, lasts a VERY long time (be sure to buy one with an expiration date far in the future!). It can sting *slightly* if you get it in your eyes, so use caution, but no more than other products.
