I'm going to mention some medical things in this review so please remember I am NOT a healthcare professional and don't intend this review to be medical advice!
First, this is a good eye cream that I find functions well. I've used it off and on for years but always come back to it. (Sometimes I try to simplify my routine for awhile and separate eye cream gets booted.) When used in the evening I've woken up with diminished smile lines/crow's feet. It's not a miraculous change, but I notice a smoother canvas when applying eye cream and that's good enough for me!
For what it's worth, I questioned a friend who is certified in Traditional Chinese Medicine and naturopathy on why black raspberry would be used in skincare, and she said it might be included as an anti-wrinkle ingredient, but couldn't speak on its level of effectiveness (not her area of expertise). So there's that.
I have chronic environmental allergies that can lead to eczema around my eyes- somewhere corticosteroid cream should not go! I was at a loss until, years ago, I got a sample of the eye cream in an ebay order. I really was just looking for something that wouldn't make the eczema worse, but I woke up with it almost gone- no stinging, far less peeling, and the swelling almost gone! I don't know what in the cream is doing it but using it in winter prevents my eyes flaring up and I'll always keep a jar on hand.
