Our rep. came by the spa the other day, and gratiously gave me samples of this product. Me thinks me is liking Kinerase Eye Cream very much, so far! 
Like the Lotion and the Cream, the Eye Cream is non-greasy. I love this factor, because I wear contacts, and also hate it when an eye cream causes my concealer to separate, or mascara to smudge  That, and milia too.
I am thirty, and look about 24-ish. I would like to keep it this way. I have, however, started to notice very faint, tiny lines around my eyes. I don't seem to tolerate retinol very well, and the Kinerase Eye Cream is keeping my eye area hydrated, while repairing and preventing damage. Anyone else using this Cream, and have any opinions?[/i] |

Looks like Sephora is now carrying the Kinerase line with Courtney Cox as a spokesperson.
I'm always looking for the HG eyecream - I'm going to check it out!!!
EDS was SUPER GENEROUS in the samples of cellcosmet eycream they sent, but I'm not sure if its "wowing" me enough to spend THAT kind of money for a full size!!! I could get two or three other products that may be just as good. It is a very nice eyecream, but the jury's still out on whether its THE one!

I love the Kinerase eye cream. The lines under my eyes got Much worse this year. Unfortunately I think from a product that I was using on them for most of the year. I bought the Kinerase and it really has made my eyes look a lot better. Not miracle better, but I could tell a difference after just a few uses. I haven't been using it long so I don't know about long term results, but I am loving it at the moment. I was only using it at night, but now I have started using it night and day.
I will agree that it is not the most moisturizing eye cream in the world, but I don't think that it is really supposed to be. It says right on it that you can use another eye cream on top of it if you need more moisturzing so I do add a touch of a richer cream at night and sometimes a bit of something light during the day if I feel like it. I have never peeled and it isn't dry on my eyes. It is just not, emollient, I suppose would be the word. But all those emollient ones didn't help my poor eyes and the Kinerase sure seems to be doing so. I'll have to update later after I have been using it longer. But right now, I'm liking it a lot. |

I got my Kinerase eye cream earlier this week and I am LOVING the texture. I love the fact that it is not overly greasy.. oops, I mean "emolliant" ... I think it is moisturizing enough for me even in this terribly dry office heating and I have been using morning and night. Granted, over the top of my Decleor firming serum.
will let you know how I go as time passes.. |

Okay I was trying to think of a word that described that sort of thick, jellied, rich texture that the Kinerase wasn't. I agree it does sink in right away and isn't dry. A lot of days I just go just as is without anything light on top of it. I can't quite break myself of adding a bit of a more 'emollient'  one over it at night yet. I have noticed that I am using just a touch of it now though. I'm really looking forward to seeing how my further time with this goes. |

| Does anyone know the difference between the eye cream and the regular face lotion/cream? I've been using the lotion for several weeks now and the texture sounds the same as you describe. I looked at the eye cream, but read that it had the same % of active ingredient so I decided to buy the larger face lotion and use it on my eyes as well. I've had no problems with this at all, but I'm wondering if there is something different in the eye cream. |

| I have the box here and I will take it to work with me and post the ingredients sometime today so you can compare. |

OK, as promised. As listed on the box:
INGREDIENTS: purified water, glyceryl stearate and laureth-23, isopropyl palmitate, propylene glycol, stearic acid, cetyle alcohol, safflower seed oil, soya sterol, stearyl alcohol, dimethicone, imidazolidinyl urea, citric acid, sodium hydroxide, methylparaben, soluble collagen, carbomer, No.6-furfuryladenine, panthenol, propylparaben, triethanolamine, ascorbic acid, hydrolyzed elastin, and aloe barbadensis leaf juice.
Now it says that there is 0.125% of the N6-furfuryladenine (Kinetin) - so therefore everything listed before that is in quantity of more than 0.125% and those listed after it are less than 0.125% |

| Hi, I’m a male having really dug-out hollow eyes. I’ve been suffering with this sunken eyeball look since past few yrs, and its actually getting deeper and deeper into the socket. I tried oil massage, sleep routine, cool pads and such but without any improvement. I posted this on some other medical forum website, but the doctor suggested to get a injection in the eye or Cosmetic surgery. The eye doctor(s), (actually I visited an ophthalmologist and a Ocular Surgeon), said that injection cannot be given on the lower/upper eyelid to plump up the skin around eyes. So, does anyone have any suggestions? (other than surgical and the ones i mentioned above) I know that I didn’t leave an option for suggestions, but I’m trying to make sure I don’t bypass the golden trick |

| I've tried many eye creams over the last 5 years. This one is by far the best! I really does hydrate and reduce fine lines. |

| wow, I've heard nothing but good things about this cream but honestly didn't feel it did much for me. I have friends who swear by it... Does it help all of you with you under eye dark circles too? It seems to do nothing for me there. |

Hi, Tiod1: Kidney problems can show up in the eye area, especially underneath, resulting in dark circles or a sunken look. Is it possible you've been taking a medication (e.g., ibuprofen) or supplement longterm that is overloading your kidneys? Sunken eyes can also be a symptom of other health problems as well. How is your health in general? Vitamins and supplements may be helpful if your diet is lacking. It sounds like all you are trying is external, but the problem may be internal.
P.S., I tried and like Kinerase's eye cream. My lids are getting a little droopy without intervention, and I found that Kinerase helped tighten the skin on my lids.

same here, the consistency is very nice and goes on very easily. but i just didn't find anything special with it other than being a good moisturizing cream for my eyes. my eyes do not have any bags, deep lines, darkness, nor puffiness to begin with, maybe that's why i didn't feel any difference. |

I used this eyecream about 2 years ago. It is a very nice cream however i find when my skin gets used to a product i dont see much of an effect so i swap to other brands.
Overall though this eye cream help with the tiny lines around my eyes but didnt do much for the dark circles that i had. It was very hydrating and eye makeup stayed put. |

Does this product treat dark cycles or puffness?
Sounds like it only treats wrinkles. |

Kinerase makes 2 eyecreams. One is the Intensive Eye Cream, which is more anti-aging and firming. Under Eye Rescue would be the eyecream for darkness or puffiness under the eye. I've worked alot with Kinerase and found both eyecreams to work well.
Hope that helped!  |

Choosing eye cream depends on the problem of your eye, it is not related to your age. Thus, if you want to reduce the fine line , you can try those eye cream which aim at tackling line |

| Kinerase eye cream has remained a staple of mine for years. No smell, nice consistency, and no irritants! |
