Shisedo Sun Protection Eye Cream.

I spotted this at a local chemists in the reduction bin for the grand price of $1! I wondered what the catch was. I looked for the expiry, nope. That was all good. I think it was just the last one and they weren't going to stock any of the line again. Yay! In a tube the standard size of eye creams, this is quite a thick cream but I would expect that from a sun cream. Only a small amount is required and care is needed not to get any in your eyes, as like all sun protection, it will sting. I tap all over my brow bone and underneath my eye area, covering the 'square' around my eyes. My usual eye makeup consists of only eyeliner and mascara, so I can't comment on how this product would work under eye shadow. However, I do think that it's advisable to let it set at least 10 minutes prior to eyeshadow application. I can't say that I have noticed any noticeable wrinkle reduction, but I think that sun protection is possibly the best anti ageing thing that you can do for your skin. Not sure that I would pay full price, but I'd be willing to pay $40 for it.

Meh

I first bought this because it had a high SPF, higher than most other eye creams, and that's what I wanted. It's a medium consistency and was white when I put it on and it took more effort to blend than other eye creams I've used, which was a bit annoying. It moisturised well but wasn't so heavy that it made my eyes puffy (a common problem for me). I like that the tube has a tiny opening so it's really hygienic. So I thought it was OK and I used it a few more times. But then everything changed... a couple of times on hot days it "melted" into my eyes about halfway through the day and oh wow did it sting - a lot! Even rinsing my eyes didn't take away the sting. Red eyes streaming with tears are not a good look. Needless to say, I won't buy this again.

Offers Spf but Did Nothing 4 My Bags & Dark Circle

I bought this eye cream when I first heard about protecting your eye area with spf and so went hunting for an eye cream with spf and found this. It was pricey but prevention is better than cure. So I coughed up the cash and bought it. I like that it absorbs within 5-10 minutes which is good if you're going to wear makeup and it offers an spf of 25. But that's where it ends, this eye cream is rather pricey and it did nothing for my under eye bags and dark circles. If I wanted to use it I would need another product to brighten my under my eyes and reduce the under eye bags and at over $50 a tube I was hoping this product would do all that. This product has fragrance listed on the ingredients but I haven't noticed it in the scent. I've finished up my tube and I don't intend to repurchase. Unless you're a hardcore Shieseido fan, I would recommend giving this a miss and instead invest in a good eye serum or cream and get a facial sunscreen that's gentle enough for your eye area or at least that doesn't make your eye water and just apply that around your eye area in the morning. There's a lot of good non-greasy sunscreens that can do the trick for a lot less or at least a much larger tube or pot.

Tips: If you seriously considering buying this sweet talking the Shiseido counter assistant into seeing if they can provide you with sample is worth a shot as this is pricey.
