93% OF CHICKS DIG IT
I received this product through the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I've been using it now for about 2 weeks and have actually noticed a difference. I've tried other eye creams and never really noticed much of a change, but this one has been great. It's got a nice texture (not sticky or greasy) and absorbs really well. And I admit, I don't have many wrinkles, but I do get dark circles easily and find the skin around my eyes can look dull, especially if I haven't had enough sleep. Since I began using this product, I've noticed the circles are less noticeable and my skin is tighter and soft. I'm pretty impressed to be honest - I never really thought I needed something like this yet, but it feels good to know that I'm doing something now to pre-empt signs of aging that we all know are coming! :)
This eye cream lived up to its claims of being quickly absorbed and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It moisturizes well without being greasy at all, and the pump dispenses the proper amount in one pump to cover both eyes. The packaging is sleek and modern. This eye cream would be great for someone who is experiencing his/her first wrinkles around the eye but isn't yet requiring more advanced eye creams that contain collagen, retinol (Vitamin A), etc., that other companies like L'Oreal offer.
One feature i would appreciate Marcelle adding to this eye cream is SPF, since UV rays are the #1 contributor to wrinkles and visible signs of aging.
Otherwise, this product offers good value for someone with minimal wrinkles and fine lines who's needing an easily-absorbed, well-moisturizing eye cream that minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eye.
I'm entering my 30's and have dark circles and puffiness around the eye area. I noticed great changes after a few days of using this product. The puffiness was significantly reduced. I noticed the most difference after I applied my makeup. I didn't have to spend much time at all to cover up my dark circles. I think I have found my new favorite eye cream. It is a bit pricy, but the overall quality provides a good value. The texture is smooth and I was able to apply it very easily and effortlessly. As for the scent I didn't love it or hate it. You can't smell it after you've applied it anyways so it didn't bother me throughout the day.
I have been using this product for a little over a week now and I LOVE IT! I'm 30yrs old and while I don't have eye wrinkles (very very very slight ones when I smile) I have been waking up in the past few months with puffy eyes and dark circles! Very frustrating especially since I'm someone who gets a great night of sleep! Like Daisy in the previous review I have sensitive skin so I have to be mindful of products I use on my skin. This product goes on smoothly and instead of rubbing in the cream I did the recommended tapping along the eye area. I was very pleased the first morning when I didn't have a reaction but my puffy eyes were still there. I have been using the product religiously day and night and finally after day 5 realized that the area around my eye was brighter AND the puffiness was gone! I didn't change my diet and I didn't get more sleep then usual so all the credit goes to Marcelle 1st Wrinkles Eye Cream! I have to tell you I'm someone who is willing to spend $60 dollars and up on products for my face and I have purchased eye cream in the past that was significantly more expensive than Marcelle for the eye area. Never again! Why would I spend so much money when I can purchase Marcelle 1st Wrinkles Eye Cream for $27 dollars? I will be purchasing more once I go through this cream, it's an essential part of my night and morning beauty regime! Ladies go out there purchase this cream and give it a chance, it won't happen overnight but in a few days you WILL see results!
I was very excited to try this cream, but unfortunately I have very sensitive skin and eyes. I tried it first at night, and had a tingling sensation when I put it on. I figured this was the cream working, but unfortunately, I had giant bags under my eyes in the morning. I tried it that morning, but it irritated my eyes all day. I wanted to give it a fair shot, so I tried it that night, but again had almost swollen eyes. The cream felt gel-like, and was easy to apply. I would not recommend this cream for someone with very sensitive skin or eyes. It is too bad because I am 32 years old, and have just recently been trying new eye creams, to prevent early wrinkles. The price is good, the cream is smooth, and is just heavy enough to stay on.
I received this eye cream through the ChickAdvisor product review club. I loved it in how it was fast absorbing, not sticky, and came out in perfect amount from the pump which makes it hygienic. The cream is illuminated so it brightens your eye area. I have been using it day and night for 10 days and now the dark circles under my eyes have lightened. Usually I don't believe in creams lightening under my eyes because Ive tried so many and it didnt make a difference. So when I got this for free I thought let me try it and I am loving it! As for wrinkles I dont have any just laugh lines and I felt like those have been minimized too. I recommend this for sure so go out and buy it!
I don't have lines around my eyes, but I do find that I'm more prone to dark circles and puffiness when I'm tired now (I'm turning 31). So I was glad to try a product aimed at brightening up the eye area, instead of targeting wrinkles. I haven't used an eye cream before, but I applied an adequate amount before bed and a little less in the morning, and I thought the texture was great (for those that found that too much product came out at times, use the excess on your lips, that skin needs extra TLC too). This is smooth, non-greasy, and doesn't make eye makeup slide around. My only concern is that I may have had a slight reaction to the cream at night - when I woke up in the morning, my eyes had teared a lot in my sleep. After four nights, I applied the cream only to the circles under my eyes and not on the lids, and that seemed to do the trick. Maybe my skin was sensitive because I've never worn cream at night.
Anyway, I'm curious to see if a longer use yields more obvious results. For now, I like the idea of taking care of the delicate eye area, and if it didn't make me look miraculously well-rested, it made my skin smooth and soft, and a colleague at work asked if I had switched to a new mascara. I'll keep using it.
I received the Marcelle Essentials 1st Wrinkles Eye Contour Cream when I was chosen to do a product review for Chick Advisor. Thank you ladies! I am 35 and do have some finelines and darkness under my eyes, so i was excited to try this product!
The Marcelle eye cream came packaged in a nice silver pump tube that I appreciated as it is tidy and easy to pump.One pump=both eyes.
I found the cream to belight and fast absorbing.It moisturized my eye area well and I did the light tapping motion when applying it as directed.I am not quite sure if it as any dramatic results as I am still trying as part of my nightly facial routine, but I did notice that my skin is deffinately smoother and softer in the eye area since using Marcelle Essentials 1st Wrinkles Eye Contour Cream.I am happy with this product and am still waiting to see the results in a couple more weeks.
I got this through the Product Review Club and was excited to try it. Although I don't have wrinkles around my eyes (yet) I do have a little loss of firmness and wanted to see if this would help. I can't really address the effectiveness yet because I've only been using it for about a week, but I do really like this product.
It comes in a pump and one pump dispenses enough cream for both eyes, which is great because I'm not wasting any. I just tap it under each eye with my ring finger. The texture of the cream is amazing...it's lightweight, absorbs quickly into my skin, and doesn't irritate my eyes at all.
I'll definitely keep using it for a while to see if I notice any visible changes, but so far I'm liking it.
I received this for review from the Product Review Club (thank you very much) and liked the styling of the package. Being 32 I'm starting to notice and appreciate products like this marketed for my age range rather than my mother's. I liked the look of the bottle, but found it dispensed a little unpredictably for the first few days. It would give way too much on one pump and then none on the next couple. It worked itself out though and began to give just the right amount for each eye with each pump which was nice.
I waited to review this product for longer than the recommended week to see if I could notice any difference in my eye area. I do have a few small crinkles coming in the outer corners and a small line under my lower lids but I didn't notice any changes in these over the almost 2 weeks I have used the product. What I did notice was a reduction in the redness around my outer corners, which was probably a touch of dry skin. The cream was light but moisturized very well. I enjoyed the cool tingle I felt after applying and it was odor-free.
I wear contacts and would apply this in the morning before putting them in and had no problems.
Perhaps the key to a cream like this is to keep using it as prevention rather than correction, which is what I plan to do. It's a good price for a nice product and I'd rather those little lines not get any bigger.
Thanks again!!
