Aveeno Fresh Essentials Anti-Fatigue Eye Roller Reviews

Description

From the brand known for harnessing the powers of innovative ACTIVE NATURALS® technologies that combine the very best of nature with the power of science, Aveeno has created a new facial skincare line to help combat the many environmental factors that cause stress to the skin: Fresh Essentials. From poor diet and sun exposure, to a hectic lifestyle and lack of sleep, simple everyday stresses can rob the skin of essential nourishment and hydration, resulting in noticeably tired skin that looks dehydrated and dull.

The Fresh Essentials Anti-Fatigue Eye Roller infuses delicate undereye skin with ACTIVE NATURALS® anti-oxidant Southernwood Extract and vitamins A, C & E to combat the look of dark circles, hydrate to brighten eye area, and de-puff the undereye area with its cooling roller ball.

    I had the chance to try this product through the Chick Advisor product review club. I've bought a number of Aveeno products in the past (like the facewash!) and have always enjoyed them. My favourite thing about this product, and what makes it stand apart from other eye rollers on the market, is the metal roller rather than a plastic one. If you are feeling, tired applying the product with a metal roller is instantly refreshing. The scent of the product was nice - not overpowering but a nice pick-me-up. I did notice that the dark circles under my eyes looked better after using the product. I would definitely buy this!

    Thanks ChickAdvisor for the great review opportunity! I really appreciate it! :)

    Well, to the review then. I actually tried an eye cream some time ago that made my eyes sting and skin very itchy. So, with this review opportunity, I was a bit hesitant. This is my first time using an undereye roller. This eye roller was actually quite soothing. There was a cool sensation that was rather refreshing. The smell was a bit strong for me to begin with, as are many scents, but after some time it was quite nice.

    I'm actually a university student now, but even in high school I had late nights studying. It's no different now. So my eyes are tired eyes filled with hours of reading. The eye roller did reduce the tiredness in my eyes slightly, but to see better results, I think that I'll need to use it for a bit longer. I've been using this product for about a week and will update after another week.

    I really am enjoying this product and it totally beats dabbing my tired eyes with concealer in the morning.

    I would probably recommend this to all of my study buddies and everyone else I know pulling all-nighters. It's really great to have something to reduce my eye bags before I get older and my skin has less collagen/elastin.

    After two weeks, I have better results! :) Well, better compared to before I started using this product. I just might continue using it, depends on how long it lasts for me. :D

    When I first tried this product, I thought I got a defective one. Yes, I can feel the rollerball work, but surely there's nothing coming out. I tested it on my hand and held it to the light. Sure enough, there's the product. It is so lightweight, I had to actually check to make sure it was coming out.

    Overall, it feels great, the scent isn't overpowering, and my eyes look a lot less tired. This may become a regular in my skin routine.

    I was so glad to be one of the Chicks who got to try this from Chick Advisor. The formula is very nice, it glides on nice and cool and instantly absorbs. No slimy residue with this one. I have genetic eye circles that barely any products improve. I found this one did help but I would like it more if they made a tinted version. I like that it is a natural product, makes me feel better by putting it so close to my eyes. Did not irritate my eyes at all either. If the price was about $5.00 cheaper I would probably buy it on a regular basis. As for now Id stick with the cheaper Garnier one with the tint until Aveeno comes out with a tinted eye roller. Overall I think this is a great product.

    I received this product through the review club and was very excited to try it out. I do have some dark circles under my eyes, not too much puffiness, but I thought this would be a nice product to try to fight and prevent this. I personally enjoyed using this product - the skin under your eyes is the most delicate and needs to be taken care of. Although I personally have not noticed any difference in the appearance of my undereyes, I really enjoyed using the metal rollerball. I felt that the cool metal along with the light product really soothed my tired eyes in the morning and at night. I felt that this product was especially useful in the morning to really help wake my face up and give me a fresh start. I thought the serum used in the product was also nice - lightweight and dried quickly, along with a pleasant scent. Althought I haven't noticed any results yet, I'm sure that after continued use I will. Not only that, but I also believe that it will be quite effective for those dealing with puffiness due to it's soothing qualities. If the price was a little lower, it is definitely something that I would reccommend to friends to help soother your eyes and wake up your skin.

    Received this through Chick Advisor.
    I think this past week has been the perfect time to test out such a product. Lately I've been going to sleep very late, therefore I've had some major dark circles and puffiness. The cold rollerball definitely felt really nice in the morning along with the slight tingle from the product it really "woke" my eyes up and probably reduced some of the puffiness.As for undereye circles I don't feel that it lightened them to any degree, usually I don't have a major problem with circles (besides this past week).

    I really see this more as a morning "perk me up" product rather then an full on eye treatment. It's nice and fast to apply in the morning with the added bonus and perking up your tired eyes. I do find I need to pat it in a bit or else I do get a slight film (which may or may not affect makeup applied over top). The smell is very pleasant and the packaging is pretty sturdy.

    Overall, I do really like the product but the price is a tad steep at $20, I will probably try a Garnier Eye Roller and compare before I repurchase the Aveeno one. Also I would keep this a morning product and sub an eye cream instead at night.

    I recently received this product through ChickAdvisor's New Product Review Club Offer. I have to say that i'm pretty impressed with it. I never expect these kinds of products to work but this one did. For several days I used the roller on only one eye (which I changed day-to-day) and then asked my husband to identify the 'less tired' looking eye. Each time he identified correctly meaning he chose the eye that I applied the product to. When I looked in a mirror and compared the two I really could notice a difference.

    It's nice to apply in the morning after feeling so groggy, it's nice and cooling. It is very easy and fast to apply and has a nice scent. After application I have to wait several minutes to let it dry before I apply my make up but I don't mind.

    If the products does cost $20, i'm not certain I would buy it again in the future but I likely would as I did notice results. Plus my husband is using it too now :)

    Full disclosure - I received this product through Chickadvisor.

    I'm a full-time post-grad student with multiple jobs, freelance and part time in a really busy industry. Therefore, at least a few mornings a week I'm super groggy and puffy-eyed in class. The Aveeno Anti Fatigue Eye Roller really interested me because I've tried a few 'wake-up-and-go' things before and tons of samples of eye cream from Clinique and Lancome but never found those effective so they haven't really stuck as a part of my regimen. The Anti-fatigue roller has a deliciously refreshing smell, it feels WONDERFUL and cold rolling under my eyelids and definitely perks me up. At first it was shocking, now its refreshing, and despite tingling at first, does not adversely affect my sensitive skin.

    Downside? It's totally addictive, sometimes I roll it on just because the residual feeling is gone! Uhoh... But I do wish this product was about $9.99, it's about $20 according to Chick Advisor and other sources which I think is too much to afford. But with the results I'm seeing I think I'll see how long this bottle lasts. It's larger than a lipstick container so it is a generous amount.

    I got this product from ChickAdvisor's New Product Club Offer and have been using it for twice a day (usually) for a week. It's easy to apply (a few shakes, then uncap it and apply once under each eye) and has a strong, though pleasant smell.

    I haven't noticed any major changes or improvements, but unless I'm under a really awkward lighting, there aren't noticeable bags under my eyes. I THINK there might have been a slight improvement to the "puffiness" (if you look really closely) under my eyes, but maybe that's just all in my mind.

    Considering the price is around $20 retail, I don't think that I would recommend this to a friend. Unless you get a very small amount of sleep for a few days straight, in which case I think that this product would probably help a lot, I don't see the worth in purchasing this product when all you really need to do is get a good night's sleep. Actually, if you can't even spare a few more hours to get a full 8 hours and would rather use this to cover it up, I'd say watch out, 'cause you're probably going to get sick really, really soon. Anyways, I don't use make-up, so I don't get the appeal of using products such as this, but of course you can try it out if you don't trust this review (among many others on the Internet).

    I received this product from the product review club (thanks chick advisor), and was very excited to try it. This is the first eye roller I have tried so I can't compare it to anything else, but I can tell you my experience. The first thing I noticed when rolling it on was that it tingled slightly (it was very minimal, lasted about 10 seconds and I didn't really mind it).

    The second thing I noticed was the scent; It has a really strong (kinda fruity) smell. It was overwhelming at first, but after a few seconds of it being on I really liked it. The smell was refreshing and "woke" me up, so to speak.

    It was easy to apply, just a quick roll under each eye. After rolling it on, I found it to be a little wet and took about 30-45 seconds for the product to dry under my eyes.

    After using this product for a week I noticed that it decreased the puffiness under my eyes. It was only a slight improvement, but I did notice a difference. I found it to be the most helpful when I needed a quick pick me up after a late night. It made me look like I had a full 7-8 hours of sleep, when it reality I only had 3-4 hours. I don't have a probelm with dark eye circles, so I can't comment on how this product works for this.

    Furthermore, I have sensitive skin and have tried aveeno products in the past will bad results (the hand lotion irritated my skin and made my skin break out in a rash). However, I did not have this problem with this product and I was pleasantly surprised when I had no reaction to the eye roller.

    Overall, if you're looking for a product to decrease puffiness, can handle a strong scent and can find it at a good price, I would try this product.
