IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Eye Cream

In my quest for all things eye treatment-related, I also bought two skincare travel kits from Belif and Ole Henriksen from Sephora. For that purchase, I received a nice freebie: ten 1mL/0.034fl oz. packets of IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Eye Cream. That's 10mL/0.338fl oz. in total folks, about 2/3 of the 15mL/0.5fl oz. full size retailing for $48! ^.^


There are many different promotions going on at Sephora, but you know why I picked this one. I've never tried IT Cosmetics before, and an eye cream is exactly what I need. I had saved several small glass jars from previous skincare products (definitely recommend reusing glass), and so I tried to squeeze all ten packets into one of those jars but filled it to the brim with just seven! Woot!

From the descriptions and claims to smooth, brighten, and depuff, I decided to incorporate this into my morning routine. Nope. It may look like a pretty icy blue gel cream but is definitely rich and moisturizing, so I switched it to night use and moved Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Eye Cream to day use instead.

The eye cream is unscented with a creamy but not greasy texture that goes on well and absorbs cleanly without leaving any traces behind. I like that it doesn't ball up when I apply too much, which happened with many eye creams I've used in the past. I now wake up with soft and smooth eyes, though I haven't noticed any brightening or depuffing. For now, it works well as a nighttime eye cream so I'm not complaining. I probably won't buy the full size, because this jar alone will take me a long time to finish, and even then I still have 3 packets left for a small refill. Happy for now.
