Had the honor to try this eye cream from The Ordinary as a test pilot and was really excited about the task!
Let's start with the positive. I already like The Ordinary's products and think this eye cream feels very affordable. The packaging is handy, it's easy to use and apply, and I was actually pleasantly surprised by the texture. The formula is a bit thicker and richer than the eye cream I usually use, which I appreciate now that it's starting to get colder outside. In summer, I prefer a light gel, but during fall and winter I easily get dry around my eyes and like to have something a bit richer.
The first week everything felt great, but then unfortunately came the downside – my eyes started to itch and water, and the area around my eyes swelled up. Therefore, I had to stop using the cream and haven't been able to test it long enough to comment on the long-term results.
So unfortunately, it didn't work for me. If you know you have sensitive eyes, I would be cautious, although of course that doesn't mean others will react the same way.
