Back to the “consumer reviews” portion that we said we’d touch on….
If you look around and do your do diligence on the web, there certainly are a lot of people giving their “two cents” on what they think is the best eye cream. Here are a lot of reasons why you will see so many websites these days out there that talk about eye creams.
1. Affiliate programs.
How you should rank their eye cream reviews: GOOD
What these are, in short, are programs that pay website owners a referral fee for sending someone to their site. It’s a common web marketing strategy that even skin care giants like Murad and Dr. Perricone MD employ in their marketing methods. While most of the affiliate programs out there run a very clean program, and thoroughly check out their affiliates to ensure they represent the product line with class and only make truthful claims, others don’t do such a great job at it and let their affiliates post whatever they want to say about the said product….(in this case, eye creams.)
So, if you see some well-written, graphically advanced site that tells a miraculous story, chances are you surfed into a good web marketer who is looking to earn a living. Nothing wrong with that, as long as the marketer tells the truth about the eye cream. there is nothing wrong with talking about the facts and letting consumers decide what to buy. However, many of the sites out there these days stretch the truth and “over-sell” a product, which is not good for the end user nor the company who manufactures it.
Banner advertising is usually pretty straight forward, and they are showing up everywhere, even on AOL’s home page! They are graphic advertisements or general real estate that someone can click on to find the manufacturers site. Pretty basic, pretty straight forward, and no fluff. You see an ad, you click on it, and if you like what you see, you buy the eye cream. You’ll see more and more banners on health portals big and small because consumers are finding that anti aging products do work and have a place in a daily skin care routine. (There is a reason the beauty departments thrive during tough economic times while car dealerships close left and right.)
In closing, we don’t mind affiliate marketing – when it’s done in the right way. But it’s important to point out that these “miracle” eye cream reviews do not hold a candle to other forms of consumer reviews you could surf into…..keep reading please.
2. Health Websites Acknowledge the Importance of Eye Creams
How you should rank eye cream reviews of this nature: BETTER
Most “big” websites out there earn a decent living earning advertising revenue. In fact, we classify EyeCream.com in this here category of eye cream reviews that we will explain below.
So, how do they do this? Well, it all starts with content. Content is KING in the online marketing niche. Web marketers, especially operators of health portals, are recognizing the importance of eye creams, and certainly viewing the search trends – they are going up by ridiculous numbers each month for many reasons – so they in turn are writing about them. Or, if you take a long gander around the web, you may see stories from large portals such as EyeCream.com be re-posted on other sites, Twitter, and of course, Facebook. There are many people out there with great resumes in the health & wellness industry who operate blogs and frequently talk about skin care products like eye creams. This is a way to bring eyes to their site and talk about a topic their audience loves. So, in turn, they will post eye cream reviews and often times, their audience can comment on them. Again, this all brings traffic to their website, which makes the popularity rise, and in turn, gives the site owners a chance to earn some advertising revenues.
So, in the grand scheme of things, these are eye cream reviews that we give a good weight to – and you should too.
3. Amazon.com & Other Marketplaces
How you should rank eye cream reviews of this nature: BEST
Now, if you are searching for the best eye cream reviews on the face of the earth, look no further than audited, verified marketplaces like Amazon.com. Channels such as Amazon.com are the gold standard in eye cream reviews, and we’ll tell you why.
For starters, they have no interest in any product they sell. They take a fee no matter what item is sold their their marketplace. They also verify every seller on their network and stand responsible for their actions. If a seller falls below their level of service, they simply take away the privilege of using their platform to sell products.
When an eye cream review is posted on Amazon.com, it’s words hold a lot of weight. With verified third party reviews dealing with a vendor of the product, whether direct or through an authorized re-seller, you can rest assured the product review is legitimate. There are no incentives to leave consumer reviews on Amazon.com, so we feel this is the most genuine way to find out if an eye cream gets good grades by it’s customers.
So, now that you know a little bit more of how we weight consumer eye cream reviews, we invite you to peruse our archive.
Elite Serum

Updated August 2010….Elite Serum improves packaging, ingredient concentrations after successful 2009 launch.
| Reduces Wrinkles | YES |
| Reduces Dark Circles | YES |
| Reduces Puffiness | YES |
| Contains Antioxidants | YES |
| Reviews on industry websites | 99% Positive |
| Amazon.com Reviews | A |
| Website | www.eliteskin.com |
Note that Elite Serum gets great eye cream reviews from the most important source: Amazon.com. While there are plenty of eye creams that work for various signs of aging around the eyes, Elite Serum has shown to be a popular choice for anyone who has used the eye serum. It’s our staff’s current pick for top eye serum on the market based on it’s ability to dominate dark circles, conceal eye wrinkles, and therapeutically hydrate, plump, and firm the skin underneath the eyes.
For more information, visit the official website at: Elite Skin.
Here is a new eye cream review for an advertiser that just came on board with EyeCream.com in 2010…..
Dark Circle Serum by Wrinkle System
Wrinkle System’s Dark Circle Serum got a big media push when it was revealed that Denver area makeup artist Danica Jardien uses it to get rid of dark circles under her eyes. You can see the full Dark Circle Serum review by clicking on the link. There is even a 6 minute YouTube video posted by Danica where she shows exactly how she conceals dark circles. It’s quite informational and in the video clip, Danica talks about how she tried many eye serums without success, but that in just two short weeks, the Dark Circle Serum by Wrinkle System worked well.
(You can see just what this medicinal eye serum looks like by checking out the banner on the right.)
So why is this such a big endorsement for Wrinkle System?
Turns out, Danica Jardien is someone special. In fact, she’s a makeup artist to the stars, working with the likes of Tyra Banks, Barack Obama, Big Boi from the hip-hop group Outkast, and even the Denver Nugget’s superstar Carmelo Anthony. Seems that if her services are good enough for supermodels and the PRESIDENT of the United States, that she probably knows what she is talking about.
Here is the low-down on the Dark Circle Serum, including some pro’s and con’s:
| Reduces Wrinkles | NO |
| Reduces Dark Circles | YES |
| Reduces Puffiness | YES |
| Contains Antioxidants | YES |
| Amazon.com Ratings | Positive |
| Overall Rating | A (Best for Dark Circles) |
| Website | www.WrinkleSystem.com |
One thing that impressed us was the fact that the claims the Dark Circle Serum make are backed up by clinical tests. In fact, in laboratory tests, the Dark Circle Serum showed a reduction in dark circles of 35% in a 30 day period. To top that off, it showed a reduction of puffiness that forms around the eyes by 41%. Wow. While this is NOT an anti-wrinkle serum, this is by far the best treatment we’ve found to get rid of dark circles, and it should be a staple in your skin care regimen if you suffer from them.
Clinique Repairwear
Summer of 2009
Clinique Repairwear is a cheaper eye cream, designed for daily use. Its primary function is as a cosmetic aid, as it works well to ‘hold’ make-up around the eye area. It does not contain any marquee ingredients, and offers no skin rejuvenation benefits. Our testing has found that it does not reduce wrinkles or aid at all in preventing dark circles and puffiness around the eyes. In fact, even at a relatively low price point of around $50, it is overpriced for what it actually does. Although Clinique is obviously a gigantic company, this eye cream was far from intensive in our testing.
| Reduces Wrinkles | Yes |
| Reduces Dark Circles | Not really |
| Reduces Puffiness | So-So in our tests |
| Contains Antioxidants | YES |
| Widely Available | YES |
| Amazon.com Reviews | (2) Both Positive |

LifeCell Cream

Updated August 5th, 2010
While not technically an eye cream, we have received a number of reader inquiries about Lifecell so we decided to review it. Lifecell is perhaps the most aggressively marketed ‘miracle’ face cream on the internet.
Again, this is not an eye cream, per say, but since it’s among the top selling products sold as a solution to cure eye wrinkles, among other things, it’s worth taking a closer look at this all-encompassing anti wrinkle cream. We ordered LifeCell recently as they are now doing a free trial promotion. While free trials are not always what they appear to be, LifeCell offers a fair shake at getting in the door with a full facial rejuvenation cream without shelling out big bucks. If you recall, LifeCell used to sell for $199 without any chance to truly “try before you buy.”
What we like about LifeCell’s anti aging cream is it truly is an all-in-one facial cream. You can use it from the neck up. While it may not have ingredients that certain neck creams usually contain to treat neck wrinkles, it’s an efficient cream that can absorb quite fast and treat everything from large pores to redness to wrinkles. Wrinkles being the main thing we were looking to treat, LifeCell did not disappoint. In fact, it really did well covering up the eye wrinkles known as crows feet that stem from the outer eye area and move towards the temple area.
LifeCell didn’t cure dark circles in our testing, unfortunately, but then again, few eye creams really do. This is a great option for people who want that all-in-one cream that they can take with them anywhere and apply any time. One tube does last several months, so there is a lot of value when you buy LifeCell. With the free trial offer, you really have nothing to lose except the price of shipping.
| Reduces Wrinkles | Yes |
| Reduces Dark Circles | Not much |
| Reduces Puffiness | Yes |
| Contains Antioxidants | NA |
| Manufactured according to FDA guidelines | Yes |
| Amazon.com Reviews | B (3.5 stars of 5) |
| Website | www.lifecellskin.com |

DDF Eye Erase Gel
Updated August 5th 2010….
DDF Eye Erase Gel stands for Doctor’s Dermatologist Formula. It is said that the formula is medically inspired. DDF is manufactured and distributed by Proctor and Gamble. As such, the packaging was top notch and all of the ingredients were listed and explained. With that said, DDF contains seven bio-active ingredients. It works well to to treat dark circles under the eyes and somewhat reduces puffiness, although the results lagged other products. However, there was no noticable wrinkle reduction among our subject. The product does not claim to reduce wrinkles or ‘crows eyes’, so this is not an issue. At under $50 we believe that it represents fair value for somebody only looking to reduce dark circles around the eyes, as it does nothing else significant. DDF can be applied with or without makeup, twice a day.
| Reduces Wrinkles | Unknown |
| Reduces Dark Circles | Yes |
| Reduces Puffiness | Yes |
| Contains Antioxidants | NA, but appears to have trace antioxidant ingredients |
| Widely available: | Yes |
| Amazon.com Reviews | Only two, but both positive |
| Website | www.ddfskincare.com |

DDF Bio Molecular Firming Serum
August 5th Update…..
DDF’s ‘premium’ brand eye cream is called DDF Bio Molecular Firming Serum and it sells for around $100. It is heavily advertised in mainstream print media and is marketed as a 3-in-1 moisturizer, toner and firmer. The manufacturer says that it is designed to reduce dark circles and puffiness around the eyes. Like the Eye Erase Gel, it performs these functions, however it did nothing for our testers in the way of wrinkle reduction. DDF customers are better off with the Eye Erase Gel, as it is essentially the exact same product but for half the price. We could not distinguish any noticable difference in the quality of the formula. Both performed about equally. The product packaging does mention the addition of peptides, which are imperative for any premium wrinkle cream. However, we were unable to find any specific information about what peptides they are referring to.
| Reduces Wrinkles | Not by design |
| Reduces Dark Circles | Yes |
| Reduces Puffiness | Yes |
| Contains Antioxidants | Yes |
| Widely Available | Yes |
| Amazon.com Reviews | 4 out of 5 stars |
