Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream – Anti-Aging Treatment for Puffy Eyes, Dark Circles, Bags, Fine Lines and Wrinkles – Brightening Daily Face Moisturizer, 1.7 oz

This used to be more of a lotion or cream. Now it’s a gel/serum. The results are not as good. I will try something else.

So far so good. I am a 59-year-old woman who has bad under eye circles, folds above my nose in between my eyes, and deepening folds around my nose/mouth area. I also have rosacea on my chin and cheeks. Otherwise, my complexion is pretty smooth, just blotchy from rosacea. For the last year, I have been using Lancome Absolue in the gold jars ($250 for day and night cream). I finally ran out of the day cream and needed a relacement. I love the Lancome but I can't pay that kind of money unless it is going to be a real miracle cream. So, I went to Amazon to shop for a replacement cream (like I do everything these days). I ran across Body Merry when I was searching for some stretch mark cream for my pregnant daughter. The reviews were all pretty good and I couldn't believe the price - what a savings! So I figured, what the heck. Let's give a try. So, I purchased this one month ago.Another lady had posted some before/after pics and that really helped me. So I thought I would do the same and if I noticed improvement, I would post them, if I didn't I would send the product back because of the guarantee Body Merry offers. Well, I believe I see a little improvement which is wonderful for someone pushing 60. Here they are for you to judge as well - before and after one month of pretty consistent use morning and evening (90%).By the way, I love the way the product feels. Very smooth, very clean. It soaks right into your face and just leaves it feeling moisturized and fresh. I purchase four products: Eye Cream, Super C-22 daytime moisturizer, nighttime moisturizer, and the Super 6 Serum. I have read reviews on the eye cream that some people didn't like the way it smells - it does have a bit of a eucalyptus aroma. It's a light scent that quickly goes away, but I don't mind it because it makes me feel like I'm applying a natural product that has a good ingredient to help my eye area. I also use it on my eyelids, lightly, and I am beginning to see an improvement in the droopiness of my eye lids. The C22 day cream is wonderful and has a fresh citrus (orange) scent. This too goes away as the moisture soaks in. I apply the day cream and wait 2-3 minutes before applying makeup. The nighttime moisture is a heavier cream that I apply after removing my makeup at night (along with the eye cream). I have normal to dry skin that dries out over night; except when I use this cream. Also, when I get up in the mornings, I do not have rosacea face like I used to (even with the Absolue). Some days I am tempted not to wear makeup at all; and some days I just put on a light application of powder and a little blush and lipstick. I still just can't get over the price on this. That's why I purchased it on auto ship - to enjoy the price for as long as possible.Hope your experience is as good as mine.

I'm not sure about this cream. My initial reaction was "hell no!" when I could feel a burning irritation in my eyes from the fragrance. Why oh why would anyone put a fragrance in an eye cream? That being said, I initially put on a pretty big amount of the cream, as I'm used to slugging on Kiels Avocado Eye Cream (very soothing). After putting on a large amount of this Body Merry cream, my eyes were burning from the fragrance, and the undereye area was stinging, I guess from the alpha hydroxy element.The next time, I tried putting on a very tiny amount. That felt much better. There was no stinging. But I did still feel a bit of a burn in the eye from the fragrance. I was ready to return the product, but I thought I noticed a difference in the way my undereye area looked. It seemed a little bit smoother, and the trough area and the dark circle seemed slightly diminished. So I've decided to keep trying it for a little while before I make a decision. I'm using this product in the morning, and very sparingly. At night, I'm sticking with my Kiels Avocado cream, since I find it so soothing for that dry area around the eye. I don't notice any undereye improvement from Kiels, which is why I wanted to try something different. But I do love how Kiels soothes.I wish I had taken a before picture for comparison, but alas - I did not.

I can't comment on whether this product truly helps the eye area look younger, but here is my review thus far:1. Packaging: Solid packaging, no issues with shipping/receiving. There was plastic wrapped around the bottle to ensure it didn't explode during transit. The bottle is short and compact with a sturdy pump that didn't need much "pumping" to initially distribute the cream. The bottle design is a bright white with a light green strip. It's bright and cheery and makes me want to use it.2. The product itself: At first, the cream feels thick. Not quite as thick as Pond's Cold Cream, but not as thin as say a lightweight lotion. It has a subtle, pleasant scent -- nothing overwhelming, and so far, nothing off-putting for me personally. Within about a minute, the cream absorbs and my eye area feels more elastic and slightly cooler in temperature. It continues to feel this way for at least an hour (haven't used it during the day time yet but by the time I go to bed after applying it, it still feels nice). Note: a little bit goes a long way -- aim for 1/2 of a pea size and add more if you need to. Using a small amount will make this product last much longer obviously, but the main point is you don't need much to fully apply to the eye area.3. Sensitivity: I am 28 with combination oily/dry/sensitive skin (yay!!) so nearly every product I try, I react to. I will say that the first time I used this cream, there was a split second of mild burning on my eyelids. That's kind of to be expected since everything seems to irritate me. I didn't have any redness, nor have I experienced the burning since. The bottle states that this cream can be used as a face and neck moisturizer as well. Right now, I use apple cider vinegar/water mixture as a toner and then Burt's Bee's Royal Jelly face cream at night. I'm hesitant to change it up because this is working for my acne, and also delivering intense moisture while I sleep. I may try using the new stuff during the day to see how my skin fairs, but just an added bonus that this cream is multipurpose.4. Anti-Aging: The most important part of this review! I haven't been using this cream long enough to comment on long-term anti-aging effects but I will say that after 5 nights of use, my eye area feels less dry; I also think my eyes look brighter but this could be psychological since I know I'm using a new product. My eye shadow is applying easier (Laura Mercier powder) and surprisingly, my lashes feel softer and fuller. Again, not sure if this is *truly* due to the cream or not. My plan is to use the entire bottle each night and update this review after I finish it.Overall, I'm pleased with this product and I think it's worth the price.

Had no effect...useless...expected a lot cuz of its reviews at amazon.com n such high price..but did nothing.didn't deserve a single star from me.
