Does any one use La Prairie's Cellular Eye Contour Cream or the Cellular Eye Moisturiser?
I've been on the hunt for a new eye cream for a while now. I've been doing the rounds House of Fraser collecting freebies and it was the turn of the LP stand today. The SA was really nice and she actually gave me 3 samples of each product and said that that should keep me going for 2 weeks or so.
But I've just looked online and the prices are  . Can anyone tell me if LP is worth the $$? I can't find any ingredients for the products listed on their site.
What I'm really after is a hydrating cream that will act to prevent lines and wrinkles for as long as poss. If it gets rid of my dark circles too then all the better  Oh, and I want to be able to get away with using the same cream both in the morning and at night. Can anyone give a thumbs up to the LP? |

The only one I've used and still use occasionally is La Prairie Cellular Eye Moisturizer SPF 15 and it's definitely not worth the price. It's a nice daytime eye cream that absorbs quickly and moisturizes well, but it's not heavy. I never saw any difference in lines and circles when I was using it regularly. I now only wear it on days I don't wear contact lens, because it stings if you get it in your eyes and it migrates easily. Honestly, I wouldn't wear it at all, but I feel the need to use it up since it was so costly.
In my opinion, save your money, because it isn't an exceptional eye cream.

Thank you so much Cheri, the kind of answer I was hoping for!  Back to the drawing board for me now  |

Cant you use most eye creams day and night?
What have you tried Kiki? Have you got any wrinkles? The thing that confuses me is when some brands do three or 4 eye creams. Duh!  I know we have different skin types but I think there is only so much a product can do for the eye. Keep looking for that pot of gold Kiki, and when you find it, dont tell anyone - sell the info. |

I used the LP eye gel (something with caviar in it - can't remember) and that really wasn't worth the ridiculous price I paid for it  |

Save your money! My husband generously bought me their $ 250.00 top of the line eye cream for Christmas and I just returned it last week. Ridiculous amount of money for no obvious results.
I'm unimpressed with anything I've tried in this line as being worth its price.

| it's not worth it.. i tried them all.. use to work for the line..I believe the contour main ingredient in vegy oil. and all of them have horsetail and ginseng.. they feel like a regular cream the $250 dollar one is nice.. reflects light(mica).. they are very thick creams ,so good for someone with dry skin.. |

Ive just received 5 different eye product samples from La Prairie which I thought was great of them to send me.  still no sign of my Vitamin C however, I guess its payback time for taking so long to decide about buying it.  |

| Last night I tried a sample of La Prairie Cellular Eye Contour Cream and this morning woke up with eyes so puffy I could look down and see the puffiness. Under my right eye is still puffy and feels funny. It could be caused by something else but I don't think I'll be finishing the sample to find out. |
