I read in Allure when they were interviewing the top skin care sales associates around the country. I guess they were saying that these women were as knowlegable as any Derm and how women depended on them.
One from an exclusive spa where celebrities go says that this PTR dark circle treatment was a wonder cream and that is what they gave the most important clients for tired eyes and fast results.
Is this a bunch of bunk? I have tried EVERYTHING out there and while I've had improvment for sure, I cannot get rid of the peskly bluish in the inner corners of my eyes and still have to use a corrector, concealer and powder. My goal is to just wear powder, mascara and clear lips gloss.I am almost there thanks to Obagi and Revive but still need the under eye area covered.
Probably will just have to laser it someday.
Just curious if anyone with SERIOUS, I mean it SERIOUS darkness has had success.
Thanks! |

I just ordered this and expect it to arrive in a few days. I'm very eager to give it a try. I have really dark circles (thin skin showing the blue beneath) and have tried so many things, and nothing has made a difference. I would consider laser in the future as well if nothing else ever works. I will post a review when I've had a chance to use the product for a few weeks.
I'm excited to hear that some people are saying it's a "wonder cream". It makes me even more anxious to try it, although I don't expect miracles. I wouldn't expect it to get rid of them completely for me, but even if lightened them up halfway so I wouldn't have to use as much concealer I'd be happy.
I think I'd read other good reviews on it here on the site and that's what prompted me to buy it. |

Well, I've used this and honestly didn't see any lightening of my dark circles - however, I've seen quite a few good reviews on here from people who've used it and liked it a lot! My dark circles are hereditary and very pronounced, nothing I've found so far has helped them so I may not be the best guide. I've never tried hylexin, although I'm always tempted as the blurb says it's just made for people like me - I've seen so many bad reviews though .
On the other hand, if I ever find something that does work I'll be sure to let everyone know ! |

I have used many eye creams for dark circles and this is the only one that has worked for me. I don't particularly like it (not moisturising enough and hard to massage in due to the encapsulated CoQ10 in little grey spheres) but I can't argue with the results. As with any product though, it tends to work for some and not for others. I'm was very happy with the results however and would repurchase this if I needed it, even though I'd have to use another eye cream over the top for more moisture. HTH |

I think you cant COMPLETELY remove dark circles. The most serious ones are genetic. Women are lucky enough to be able to cover them with makeup. |

After how long did you see noticeable results? |

I think I started seeing results after a few weeks but I did use it for a few months before I was happy with the outcome. |

I'm the one can't see any result. My dark circles due to poor sleeping. I still need to use concealer to cover it. See nothing different after used 1 bottle. |

Maybe you should improve your sleep duration and quality. There are MANY things that you can do for this |
