   I have tried many different eye gels for my puffy eyes (both top and bottom). The only one I have consistently used for the last 10 years has been Patricia Wexler’s Depuffing Eye Gel. I swear by it. I am 50 but people tell me I look 36. The eye gel has not only helped with puffiness but it has helped with firming and wrinkles for years.

   This product is awesome. It reduces puffiness and feels great. I will repurchase this. Unique product.

   I have been using this eye gel for about 2 months. I have under eye puffiness when I wake up in the morning and after applying this gel it dramatically helps (it does not eliminate it completely, but definitely reduces the swelling).
   I either keep it in the fridge or on my vanity but haven’t noticed a difference in its performance either way.
   I have only had it expel too much product once.
   I will continue to use this product and found it way more effective than the Clinique under age de-puff roller (which I got at the same time).

   I actually think this works. I have had issues with puffy eyes for the last few years. After seeing Lisasz07 (i think that’s her name) do a review on youtube I decided to try it. I definitely see a difference almost immediately after I apply it in the morning. I can really tell on the days I don’t use it. I’ve had trouble with the packaging. Sometime I’ve opened it and a ton of it just spurted out everywhere. I would imagine I’ve lost at least 30% of the product this way. I just try to remember to be really careful with it.

   This did very little to help with under eye puffiness. I can’t say that it did nothing, but it didn’t help as much claims it will. (Apparantly it has won alot of beauty awards and on the Bath & Body Works website it’s described as a “miraculous” gel that reduces puffiness immediately).
   Also, it takes a while to dry and even after it does, all around my eye still felt kinda wet. It just doesn’t sink into the skin very well.
   As for packaging, the tube is useful because you could cut it open when it gets low to get the last little bit out. However, the actual hole where the product comes out is a bit too big, making it easy to squeeze out too much if you’re not careful.
   Bath & Body Works has a good return policy, so I ended up taking this back. I replaced it with the Wise Woman eye cream from The Body Shop. That one helped alot more with puffiness, as well as dark circles, both of which are problems for me. The Body Shop one absorbs better too.

   I have tried many, many eye creams. This is by far the worst.
   I have slight puffiness around my eyes and this gel did NOTHING to alleviate it. Even worse, the tube is such a poor design that it is inevitable that you will squeeze out to much almost every time. Total waste of money. I bought this as a 2 for 1 and am on the second tube. I am only using it because I don’t like to waste things, but it is totally useless.

   I had bought this in hopes that I wouldn’t look so tired on my wedding day. This did NOTHING to help me. I purchased this at B&BW for more than I would have liked to spend on a tube so small (I think it was about $21 back in 2007. It may still cost the same, IDK). It’s a nice, not-too-thick gel consistency that you squeeze out of a tube. It feels nice when you apply it….UNLESS…you have been crying. I cried for a couple hours, recently, and decided to test this out again. After crying, I washed my face to get rid of all that saltiness, and then applied this on my undereye bags and above my eyelids…and boy did it sting! The tops of my eyelids turned a little red….but only for several minutes. The stinging went away…BUT….again, this gel did nothing for my puffiness. What a disappointment.

   Lately I’ve been having trouble with puffy eyes in the morning. I have allergies to various things and I suspect it’s related to that. I was looking for an eye product to either help prevent the puffiness or to bring the puffiness down once it started. This did neither. While it didn’t hurt (the skin or the eye) or cause any problems, it did absolutely nothing in terms of helping puffiness. For that matter, it didn’t do anything else, like improve the skin. It neither prevented puffiness nor solved existing puffiness. The tube was ok, although it wanted to spit out more product at a time than I needed. The prince was perfectly reasonable at $20, if only the product had done anything. I returned it.

   Been purchasing this product for about a year now. It really does work, as long as the puffiness under the eyes isn’t major. If I’m really puffy due to allergies, I use ice. However, if I have a little water retention and wake up puffy, this is my go to product. Sometimes, I have to use a tiny bit more and/or a second application, but it is effective. It provides a nice cool sensation during application too. I can see it work as I’m putting on my makeup. I keep it on hand at all times.

    Save your money. I have really puffy eyes in the morning and minimal puff throughout the day. I’ve tried dozens of eye creams, this was my first gel. While it did feel nice under my eyes and the tingling helped my eyes feel more ‘awake’ this did nothing for the puffiness, and I agree that it seeps into eyes and stings.
    I don’t have issues with fine lines, so I can’t comment on this aspect, but this product did not help my puffiness, even when applied twice.
