Disappointed
-04.22.13
Quick Take: a waste of money
I have used and loved Dr. Brandt products in the past, but I couldn't be more disappointed with this one. I have 1 small, fine line around my eye area and have used this product twice a day or 5 months. There is absolutely no change. Although the product makes my skin feel tight for about 2 minutes after I apply it, this is clearly a gimmick. And I've used it for so long that I don't even notice the tightness anymore.

You can feel it working.
-04.17.13
Quick Take: diminishes fine lines, firming
I use this as a spot treatment for crow's feet and smile lines. You can feel it working as it tightens the skin in those area. I have been using this for about a year along with the microdermabrasion cream as well. I love it. The cream lasts a really long time as a little goes a long way.

Quick Take: dr. brandt's crease release
The cream is rich and leaves a tingly sensation. It's still too soon to tell if it has a significant effect on my deeper wrinkles. I definitely notice a softening of the creases between my eyebrows.

Holy !@$£*! It Worked!!!!
-09.04.12
I was lucky to get a sample to take home and try. First I dabbed it over the wrinkle beneath my left eye (my most noticeable one yet still not a crater...just a little deeper than a fine line)
After a few minutes I felt some tingling, like lip venom but without the mintiness and NO stickiness. After 10 minutes I inspected the results....very noticeable improvement. Was the wrinkle gone? Nope, that would require fillers, a surgeon or a miracle. But it was much improved. I could only see it at specific angles with my face close up to a well lit mirror.
Definitely worth buying when my sample runs out!

Quick Take: well worth the price
Keeps the creases away between my brows and on my forehead. Smells and feels great. Causes no breakouts on my super sensitive skin.

Amazing!
-05.11.12
I am so happy with this- I have developed a little line between the eyebrows that makes me look a little mean, and after patting this on, the line goes away. Very happy with the results.

Not Botox but it certainly helps
-01.11.12
Quick Take: tightening, preventative, dimishes fine lines
I hate needles so Botox is not an option for me, so when I found this product I had to try it. I didn't think a cream alone would get rid of the crease beginning to form between my eyebrows (from squinting to much), but it seems to really be improving this crease more than I thought it would. My line wasn't super noticeable to begin with, but I didn't want my crease to become a deep line and I feel that this product is helping smooth it out both visibility and to the touch. My results are after only using the product for a week and a half and I'm sure it will continue to improve. My skin is sensitive and even at age 30 likes to break out if I use the wrong product on it, this has not irritated my skin at all. I Love this product.

Give it a try
-01.04.12
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines
Worked immediately on "crows feet." Took a few days for lines under the eyes to disappear. The forehead is much better, but still see lines, this is not Botox! Even using on the décolletage and it seems to be working well. Definitely worth a try.

Not quite there for me . . .
-12.06.11
Been using for about a month and not noticing much. Was hoping it would work good enough to replace botox. Not even close. Maybe it's a good product, but don't buy if you think it may replace your botox. Unfortunately I didn't notice very much tightening.

It works on your forehead best!
-07.27.11
Quick Take: preventative, forehead smoothing, helpful in keeping away deeper wrinkles
I decided to write this because it really does work on my forehead and is helping the lines from furrowing in deeper.As for other creases it is not as effective and I prefer to use other creams on them in addition. But yes get it and use it daily for your forehead and you should see results.

Not crazy about this
-06.07.11
This is a $150 cream, and I expected at least half a miracle. I've been using it now for just over two weeks, and I'm not seeing any difference in my wrinkles. I expected a bit of improvement, but I think it's like the others. I plan on returning it this week.

Way over priced
-05.14.11
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, works well only under other creams
It is a good cream, but only if used with other creams. It does relax wrinkles, but not as good as the RP3 eye cream. It helps with puffiness if you use it underneath the dr. brandt eye cream and face cream. In my opinion it is good, but NOT worth the 150.00. If i paid around 80.00 i'd purchase it. I'd rather keep my money and buy the RP3 eye cream instead.

I only used this product for 2 weeks, and saw absolutely no change in wrinkles or deep creases on my forehead. I'll be returning it to the store.

Quick Take: tightening, dimishes fine lines
Absolutely love this product! I am 40 and have slight frown lines that I have been wanting to smooth out before they get any deeper. In just about 10 days of using this product, I already see a difference. I will definitely keep using this product.

For those of us who love instant gratification...
-01.10.11
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, guilty pleasure
If you love instant gratification this is the product for you. I find it smoothes away the fine lines and softens my deeper ones. It is not a moisturizer and should not be used in place of one. Do half your face, wait 5 minutes and look in the mirror. That is what they did at Sephora and I have been hooked since. This is a must have guilty pleasure :)

Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, plumps
I tried this and it did the job on fine lines howerver, it did not work for wrinkles. A lot of reviews are by ladies who are using it for creases between their brows. I'm 59 and expected much more from a 150.00 jar of cream! I'd say if one is in the 30's or 40's age group, this would work great on fine lines. In the 50's with a few wrinkles? Don't waste your money. For it to work well, one must dab it on and let it dry completely before applying moisturizer. I'm giving it three stars because I think it would work well for a certain age group, just not mine.
