Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester CCC+ Ferulic Brightening Eye Cream - 0.5 fl oz

To try to lighten my extra dark shadows cannot believe after a week how great it looks. Pricey but worth every penny or dollar to me!

You can feel the Quality of the product and moisturizing effects when applied to your skin and see instant results!

I originally wrote that it made my under eyes puffy but i see now that was in conjunction with my full face sleep apnea mask! but I switched to a nasal mask, and now the puffiness is gone. Although I don’t see a whole lot of difference from the norm.

Moisturizes without making bags under your eyes which is great! keeps eyes looking smooth and lines at a minimum.

Didnt work. Waste of money. Would want a refund. Expensive cream. I do not recommend this product to anyone. We are just paying for the name of the product.

Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester CCC+ Ferulic Brightening Under-Eye Cream I always look for several key ingredients in an eye cream, especially ones that promise to hydrate, help with discoloration, and wrinkles - things like retinol, vitamin C, hydroxy acids, peptides, tea extract, niacinamide (vitamin B), and caffeine. This contains an acid, vitamin C (the really good, stable one), ferulic acid, and a lot of hydrating oils. I really love this eye cream and it is very hydrating. This serum is like thick milky water and it glides on easily without stinging or drying my skin out. I have super dry skin that is also very sensitive and this works well when applied at night along with a good occlusive cream. This caused no irritation but I did make sure to put on a good layer of sunscreen in the morning. I noticed an immediate brightening and I really think it helps with keeping my skin hydrated which helps plump up fine lines. It is very gentle and no real scent but I can detect the ferulic acid - once you know how that ingredient smells, it sticks with you. The amber glass bottle comes safety sealed with a plastic cap that audibly clicks when opened - you have to install the pump which comes separately. There is no expiration date but it should be used within 12 months of opening. The container and packaging are fully recyclable and there is 15ml in the bottle. This bottle comes overfilled so be careful when inserting the pump. #alcohol-free #fragrance & essential oil-free Key Ingredients Anti-acne: Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate Antioxidant: 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Sodium Tocopheryl Phosphate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ferulic Acid, Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract, Tocopherol, Squalene Cell-communicating ingredient: Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 Skin brightening: 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Hydroxyphenoxy Propionic Acid Skin-identical ingredient: Glycerin, Squalene Soothing: Panthenol, Hydroxyphenyl Propamidobenzoic Acid ALL INGREDIENTS BY FUNCTION Antimicrobial/antibacterial: Ferulic Acid Antioxidant: Sodium Metabisulfite, Ascorbyl Palmitate Buffering: Sodium Hydroxide, Citric Acid Chelating: Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Phytic Acid Emollient: Caprylic/​Capric Triglyceride, Dimethicone, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Lecithin, Squalene Emulsifying: Glyceryl Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Sodium Tocopheryl Phosphate, Lecithin, Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate Moisturizer/humectant: Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Pentylene Glycol, Panthenol, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 Preservative: Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Metabisulfite, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate Solvent: Water/​Aqua/​Eau, Butylene Glycol, Pentylene Glycol Surfactant/cleansing: Cetearyl Alcohol, Sodium Tocopheryl Phosphate, Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate Viscosity controlling: Cetearyl Alcohol, Sodium Acrylates Copolymer, Sodium Tocopheryl Phosphate Ingredients Water/​Aqua/​Eau, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Caprylic/​Capric Triglyceride, Glycerin, Dimethicone, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Sodium Acrylates Copolymer, Butylene Glycol, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Sodium Tocopheryl Phosphate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Pentylene Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Lecithin, Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Hydroxyphenoxy Propionic Acid, Escin, Ferulic Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Metabisulfite, Ethylhexylglycerin, Panthenol, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Hydroxyphenyl Propamidobenzoic Acid, Citric Acid, Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract, Tocopherol, Phytic Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Potassium Sorbate, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5, Beta-Sitosterol, Squalene

Perricone MD is one of my favorite brands. I have had such positive experiences with their products and the Vitamin C Ester CCC+ Ferulic Brightening Under-Eye Cream was no exception. I have a dark undereye area. It has been that way for years and has gotten slightly worse with age. Brightening serums do help but I have to keep up with the routine or they just return. The product has a thin, milky like texture. It's like a super thin liquid foundation. It applies easily to my undereye area. While it doesn't fully absorb right away and does leave the area feeling a bit tacky, it doesn't stay that way for more than a few minutes. I always apply at night before bed and by morning, there is no residue left on my skin. I didn't think the product had an offensive or overly strong fragrance. It is mild and medicinal and dissipates rather quickly. I have been using this product for several weeks and have definitely noticed an improvement. I didn't notice any results at first but after a few days, my undereye area really did start to look brighter! After several weeks, the darker areas have been greatly diminished! I am quite pleased with the results and while there are less expensive products on the market, they don't work as well as this one!

The product itself is great. This is not my first product from the Perricone MD collection and all of them have lived up to expectations. It absolutely has reduced the dark bags/circles under my eyes. That one change has brightened my face and removed about ten years worth of age. The cream applies well and a tiny little drop is enough for both eyes. The cream is not thick in consistency so it will spread easily and without the need to rub your already sensitive eye area. My only complaint is the bottle and dispensing. Depressing the plunger once gives you way too much product. No matter how hard I tried I could never depress it half way. There was literally no control. I ended up moving the product to a different container where I can just dab my finger into it. Is the product worth the $65 price tag (as of this writing) which comes out to $130 an ounce? Yes, from the standpoint that it worked well and made good on promises. No, from the standpoint I likely could find something to work nearly as good without the hefty cost.
