This is an amazing eye cream for Normal to Oily Sensitive skin type.
-My dark circles have already started to fade
-hydrating and cooling...love it
-Never irritated my eyes, no breakouts around the eye area.
-absorbs instantly
I saw visible change in less than 3 days of use.
It has a very light texture and no fragrance.
I am very pleased with the eye cream.

So I decided to add my 2 cents on this eye cream.
I lucked out with this one! I had an eCertificate for $30 from a previous purchase on skinstore.com, so I got this eye cream for 6 dollars after I signed up during their introductory auto-ship delivery program. (The intro. offer was 20% off until Dec. 31st, but now you can save 10% on auto-delivery orders). I've been using samples of this before I bought the full size. I love it so much I use it twice daily. It goes well under makeup, something I've not really experienced with this type of product. The cooling sensation is PERFECT for an eye cream. It decreases puffiness and I've noticed my eye area looking much brighter. I've been really stressed out lately and it has taken it's toll on my face. S.I. has been a life saver for me. It's actually one of the more economical eye creams I've come across. A little dab will do it, so it should last several months even though the container is fairly small (if you've tried the 5 day kit, the size of the night cream in that kit is the full size eye cream). Skyn Iceland has been one of the few product lines that are actually very concentrated so you can get away with using a very small amount. I'm excited to finally find a product line that I like so much, I actually look forward to my routine now! If you want to try Skyn Iceland, I highly recommend the 5 day travel kit, which comes with the cleanser, toner, day lotion and night cream. The products all last longer than "5 days" and is a fabulous way to give this line a good trial run. |

| I love the Skyn Iceland Mineral Sunscreen, so I have no doubt their eye cream is good, too. So need to try this after I finish with my current eye cream (which is decent but I'm not sure if I'll reorder). |

| Thanks for the review...although I'm not directly looking for an eye cream, I am interested in this skincare line and am thinking about getting its kit (the one with the cleanser, mist and two moisturisers) so I'm wondering if you've used any of Skyn Icelands products? |

I ADORE the sunscreen...at first I was completely put off by how thick it is, but it is absolutely killer for a sunscreen. A little goes a long way and doesn't leave me greasy at all! |

Currently, almost my entire routine is Skyn Iceland. I love the cleanser, night cream, and day lotion. I'm oily/combo but I found the mist way too drying in tandem with some of the other products. That said, I believe this is attributable to my use of MaMa lotion, so I might be able to tolerate the toner/mist better if I weren't using ML. I plan on using the mist in the summer months though, as it is really refreshing...especially after a work out!
I highly recommend the kit...the products last a great while and it's a wonderful way to see how you like the brand. I know this brand won't be for everyone, but so far it's worked well for me 
**Edited to Add** I will be posting thorough reviews of the products I'm using from SI once I've used them for a month...stay tuned  |

| PT - where do you buy your Skyn Iceland products from? I checked EDS but they don't have it here. I got my sample of the sunscreen from beauty.com. |

I go through Skinstore.com for my Skyn Iceland. They have free shipping and once a month or every two months they usually have a great 20% coupon.

BTW---Paris, have you happened to use the anti-blemish gel? No-one seemed to have reviewed it over at MUA.
Thanks! |

Skyn iceland is an amazing line!! If I wasn't using cellcosmet, I'd use this line! Here are the products I used and the results:
THe eye cream: Soooo cooling and relaxing!!! I liked that it didn't have any scent. Didn't do anything for my broken capillaries, but then again nothing apart from cellcosmet has. It melts into the skin nice and diminished dark circles. Didn't use long term but don't think it would do much with already present wrinkles.
The day cream: Nice and light. Easily absorbed. decent moisturizer. I had to use quite a lot though. Doesn't leave face shiny or oily looking.
The night cream: Smells divine. Again, relaxing. Nex to cellcosmet, the best moisturizer I have used!! And I mean it!
The cooling face mask: This is divine!! It leaves face feeling so refreshed and rosy!!! Great mini facial. I feel like I've come from a spa after using this. Very expensive for five treatments though.
The glacial face wash was really refreshing, but I am not a fan of foaming cleansers. Usually they are too harsh for my skin, but this wasn't at all. My face feels a little dry after using this though.
Hope this helps!! It truely is an exceptional line. Writing about it makes me want to switch from cellcosmet to skyn iceland now!! lol. |

| I am on my 3rd bottle!!! This stuff rocks if you are a night owl like me with incredible eye strain because you are working 24/7. It shrinks eye bags from water retention and eliminate fine lines. I LOVE THIS product!!! |

Skynn Iceland makes good products. I tried a sample of their sunscreen before, and I really liked the texture and how it made my skin feel. I'd really like to try a sample of this eye cream even though I am in love with my revitalift eye cream right now.  |
