Quick Take: hydrating, brightening, absorbs quickly
I have been using this product for about 2 years. I am currently 25 years old and have taken a very proactive approach to skin care in hopes I can preserve my skin! I do not have wrinkly skin or any concerns but I do love this product. It is very soft for around the eyes and I also feel like it brightens the area around the eyes. I think this is a fantastic product and I hope to see the results of use in 10 years (with clear skin, and no wrinkles!)

I love it so far, very rich texture, and rubs in well under make up. Good bang for your buck

Great!
-04.26.13
Quick Take: hydrating, absorbs quickly, tightening
I really like this, it is thick (will last forever just need a touch of it) but absorbs really well leaving your eyes feeling moisturized and tightened. Doesn't seem to have any crazy effects to it but I would say it is a great starter cream for a younger woman starting an anti-aging regimen. I put it on my eyelids as well and I use it as a primer for my eye makeup and concealer. Simple and feels great. Someone said that the kardashians use this.. if that's true it must be good!

I would buy this again. I have really sensitive skin around my eyes and at the creases from my eye makeup. This doesn't irritate me and hydrates and soothes

Moisturing and hydrating
-03.29.13
Quick Take: hydrating, absorbs quickly
It looks very creamy in the jar. Upon contact witht the skin, it melts away and sinks in nicely. It has done a decent job keeping my eyes hydrated. Also worth noting that i use another cream before it (Decleor Expression de L'Age). Neither is really anti aging, but they both hydrate well.

Not Bad!
-03.27.13
Quick Take: hydrating, absorbs quickly, thick, dense
This is a nice eye cream! It's a very very dense and thick cream, but it absorbs very quickly and leave my eye area feeling very nice. I don't know about its antiaging benefits since I'm still young. It didn't fix my under eye circles, but I've had very dark under eye circles for a very long time and I don't expect anything will ever fix them, so no disappointments from me about that. I like and would recommend this. It doesn't have a strong smell at all either which is nice.

It's decent
-03.10.13
Quick Take: hydrating, brightening
I like this enough, and feel like for the price which is much cheaper than some eye creams, that this is a good product. It's a very heavy cream and even though it's called "Fresh Start" which makes me think it should be used in the AM, because of the texture I don't like the way it feels under makeup and instead use it in the PM. I've been using on/off for about a month and my under-eye area is noticeably brighter.

Great Product
-02.18.13
I was going to buy the Darphin eye cream, which i love, but is almost double the price (French brand not sold at Sephora), so i decided to try something new, and upon the sales associate's recommendation opted for "fresh start eye cream." I am pleasantly surprised - I usually would go for a lighter version, this eye cream has a pretty thick consitency, but it goes on smooth, feels great, and of course best of all works. Scent is neutral, which I like. Would prefer a tube (that fits in any little pocket), this cream comes in a little glass jar, however, great value - it will last you a long time!

sensitive skin
-02.18.13
Quick Take: hydrating, brightening
I have tried a ton of eye creams, most of which irritate my sensitive skin so much that my skin gets red, flaky and the circles under my eyes get worse. This has helped with all of that and is much richer than the Mario Badesco Hylauronic eye cream that I have been using. I use this for night and the mario for day.

My eyes look WORSE
-01.23.13
I agree with one of the earlier reviewers--this cream is way too thick and actually accentuated all of the wrinkles under my eyes. It was heavy and almost clung to all of my wrinkles. It did not absorb in well at all. Since there are other positive reviews, I'm wondering if maybe this eye cream is better for someone who doesn't yet have undereye wrinkles, or 'crepey' skin under their eyes, and better used as a preventative cream for anyone looking to avoid these issues. I will give this brand one more try and go with another type of their eye cream instead.

Best eye creme
-01.13.13
Quick Take: hydrating, brightening, absorbs quickly
Admittedly, I was referred to this creme by the Kardashians/Jenners... read an article saying that they all use it. They all look fantastic, so I figured I might as well try it.
I LOVE it. I've been using it for about 2 weeks now and I really notice a difference. My eye area appears much smoother and brighter. Highly recommended.

Quick Take: hydrating, brightening, absorbs quickly
I've been using this twice daily for about a month now and am loving the results! It goes on very easily and absorbs quickly into my eye area. My eye area looks hydrated and more awake. I feel like any circles under my eyes have definitely diminished since I've started using this product. I also like the value - it is a lot of product for the price and will last for quite awhile!

I have used Ole Henrikson skincare products for a while now, including the Visual Truth eye creme. I was running low and decided to try fresh start to see how I liked it.
It doesn't irritate my eyes with contacts, my makeup goes on smoothly over it, and I feel like it's really working. It's nice and thick without being goopy and absorbs quickly.

-01.05.13
Quick Take: hydrating
I bought this based solely on all the positive reviews. I wanted something super moisturizing because the cold, dry winter weather has really been drying out my skin. It really is thick, wears nicely under concealer, and lasts all day. You can still feel your under eye skin moisturized by the end of the day.

Quick Take: hydrating, absorbs quickly
I love this eye cream! My eyes look refreshed, hydrated and I never feel that this cream leaves my eyelids greasy. I use it day and night, and out of the natural eye creams I've tried this is by far my favorite and the best value. Eventually I get a stronger nighttime eye cream for anti-aging, but I will still use this in the morning. I highly recommend it!

Hate it
-12.30.12
I thought this would help me "diminish lines and wrinkles," but it completely did the opposite. I am not beginning to see lines and wrinkles that I've never seen before under my eyes. I absolutely regret buying this eye cream. I pat it under my eyes every morning and night (for the past week) and it has been feeling like my eyes are weighing my whole entire face down. I feel tired and like an old woman, seriously. I don't know what it is because I have heard so many good things about this cream, but all I know is that this isn't the product for me.
