AMOREPACIFIC Moisture Bound Rejuvenating Eye Treatment Gel Cream, 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

Love this!

It's fantastic.

So I ended up being lucky enough to order a number of items from Amorepacific through the Vine program. I am a 50 year old man that has been fighting my age with a good face care regiment for about a decade now. I have used or use stuff from Kiehls, Brickell, Phace, Neutrogena, and a bunch of others I have found over the years. This is my first time using this product line and I was more than a little curious why they were priced so high. Amorepacific describes their process as handcrafted. They own their own green tea farm on a Korean Island. Their claim is that their use of high end ingredients, meticulously crafted and cultivated, make for better products. Call me skeptical. Let me say unequivocally that this is really great eye cream. There are others out there that I think are on par but, after a week of using this, the difference is noticeable. Eye cream tends to be expensive but a little goes a long way and that's the case here. It goes on cool, leaves the skin around your eyes feeling great, and does real work on your wrinkles and dark spots. Of the products I received from Amorepacific, I think this is their best value. At $85, it is in line with other high end eye creams and I doubt you will find a better one. Call me a big fan. I am a skeptic no more. Well done to the Amorepacific team here!

Great product, but too expensive

I love a good eye cream, and this one is really versatile and effective. At night I can use slightly more and my eyelids stay moisturized all night. In the morning I can use just a dab and it works well under make up. My lower eyelids are less puffy in the morning, and fine lines seem to be smoothing out after a couple of weeks. While most of the products I've tried from Amore Pacific are heavily scented, this one is not which is great for sensitive skin. I truly dislike the lid on the jar, it makes it awkward to unscrew it on such a small jar, but this isn't a huge problem on the eye cream jar. The moisturizer jar lids are another story, those things are too big for my hands! But this is an awesome eye cream for my dry 30 something skin. They definitely make me feel like less of a tired looking mom.

AMOREPACIFIC is a South Korean beauty and is the world's 12th cosmetics company. They've also been around since 1945. You may have heard of Sephora which is also them. Key ingredient is bamboo sap which grows on a magical island in South Korea free from war with unicorns and candy streets. The goal is to minimize puffiness dark circles, which AMOREPACIFIC also has another related product AMOREPACIFIC Intensive Vitalizing Eye Essence Serum Treatment, 0.5 Fl Oz The treatment gel isn't greasy and depuffs (very quickly) and smooths the face. It also helps with dark circles under the eyes While this is very expensive, the key to the price be realistic is to stretch out the product to last as long as possible bringing the price down. Just a little will work. This is a very highly rated product on other sites with 100s of reviews.

Amorepacific Moisture Bound Rejuvenating Eye Treatment Gel Cream promises “rich hydration” and claims to be able to minimize the appearance of dark circles and puffiness for a revitalized, youthful look. This feels like an ultra lightweight eye gel that’s pleasing in the sense it dries quickly and has a non greasy matte finish. There’s no need to wait before applying my makeup. But this eye gel feels too lightweight, and I don’t feel or see any noticeable benefits. At a minimum, I’d expect to get adequate hydration (perhaps even plumping from sodium hyaluronate) and a comfortable feeling, but I don’t get either. This gel also fails to help my dark circles, though in fairness mine are difficult to address and few products make a noticeable difference. I’m in my late 50’s with dry, sensitive skin. I don’t get a rash from this gel, but my skin gets a burning feeling. It may be the chemical fragrance, but I suspect it’s the alcohol as it’s the 7th ingredient on a long list. Per Paula Begoun, non fatty alcohol is bad for the natural barrier of the skin no matter what skin type and is a “pro-aging” (rather than anti-aging) ingredient. I see no reason to start adding alcohol to my regimen at this point. This gel does have some potentially beneficial dry skin ingredients, such as sodium hyaluronate, beta glucan, glycerin, vitamin E, butylene glycol and soybean seed extract. Also, for reducing discoloration, it has niacinamide and acetyl glucosamine (though I’ve read “n-acetyl glucosamine” is best). Most ingredients with available data rate low risk per EWG, though a few rate moderate risk and fragrance rates high risk. While this gel has some good low risk ingredients, many alcohol free eye treatments provide me superior hydration and benefits. 3 stars.

This review is for the AMOREPACIFIC Moisture Bound Rejuvenating Eye Treatment Gel Cream. My wife absolutely loves this eye gel cream, and has become one of her go-to daily products as part of her daily beauty regimen. Some of the comments she has made regarding the effectiveness of this product is how well it has cut down on the puffiness under the eyes, how she no longer has dark circles in the mornings after applying it the night before, and that she has noticed the fine lines are actually going down. She has become a raving fan of this particular product and how well it works around her eyes, especially given the fact it takes very little of the product daily to obtain great results. So clearly this is a product our household definitely would recommend to anyone that wants to improve the skin appearance around their eyes.
