2011 Best Eye Cream Reviews

Here are some eye cream reviews I collected recently. Hopefully it will help you determine the best eye cream of 2011 for you. Feel free to share your expereince and recommendations as well. We love hearing from you!


Shisedo Benefiance: Concentrated Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream

I got this eye cream for my mom. She used it and told me this is by far the most moisturizing eye cream she has ever used. From an esthetician, I think that says a lot. 

I got this product from mom along with all the other professional products she got from the trade show (Cosmetic Expo for Professionals) For someone with a smaller budget, this is probably the best product to go with. I love this eye cream from the cost benefit perspective.
It's very light, but gives good result. It tightens the skin, removes lines and moisturize all at once. However, since it is not commonly sold on the market, you will have to have access to an Esthetician to get it. Anyways, if anyone wants to try it.


This Bliss eye cream is recommended by my roomie. She compared this to the La Mer over $100 eye cream and still think this one is better, especially when it is much cheaper than the La Mer cream.
The selling point is its under eye treament and lifting effects It targets dark circle, saggy eye brow arches, and under eye bags. Once I am done with my Jurlique (which has always been my favor along with the new favor: Clique all about eyes ) and Dr. Jeff cream, I will try this one out.

The 101 blog posting - all about eyes

This is the 101 blog posting at Beauty and the Bee..

Thank you for staying with me through the past year or so and read 100 of my sharing.

On the 101 posting, I want to recommend a product: ALL ABOUT EYES.

How we look is ALL ABOUT EYES. Eyes can give away your age, your mood and how much effort you spent in taking care of yourself.

In the past, I recommended Jurlique's anti-aging eye cream. I still believe that is one of the best eye creams that I have ever used. However, recently, I got my hands on a sample size Clinique All About Eyes. It is amazing!

The first 2-3 days, I didn't really see the results right away. After first week, I noticed the skin around my eyes are tightened and my dark circle faded.  Then I got excited and started to use a little more than before, the result is obviously better in the 2nd week. I also massaged the cream in when I applied it, which probably helped the cream to get absorbed a little better too.

I highly recommended this product. I am definitely getting another bottle when my sample/ travel size one is out.

Enjoy my QBs..

Happy 101 postings at BATB!

About eyes - Highly recommended products!!




Here are 2 eye products I recently fell in love with:

1. Jurlique Purely Age-Defying Eye Cream (click the link to see the product page)

In forever searching for the best eye cream, I fell in love with this one. It's age-defying eye cream, so it returns you to the bright eye girl you looked like when you were in teens.... OK.. may be I exaggerated a bit.. But, it's a great product for getting rid of the fine lines, dark circle and really hydrates the skin around eye.

Jennifer~ Thanks for your recommendation!!

2. envie de neuf Eye Mask (click the link to see the product page)

Hallelujah~~Hallelujah~~ This is what I was saying to myself after using this mask!! This is by far, the most effective eye mask I have ever used! Thanks to Chi-chan for bringing 2 masks to try. I used it before i go to sleep for both masks. The 2nd day, I didn't need concealer or any brightener under my eye to get that "post-coffee" energized look. The butterfly looking mask really goes far with its effect!

come get muddy and pretty~

Yes to Carrot C the difference Mud Mask
Yes to carrot is an increasingly popular organic cosmetic brand. You can get them in pharmacy at a very reasonable price. With my colleague's, Peggy, recommendation, I picked up a free sample (a full/regular size bottle) and gave it a try.   I've used 2-3 times so far. It's not bad. It's a bit irritating at the beginning, I suppose that is because the mask is killing the germs and digging out the dirt in the pores.. LOL..
As the mask started to dry, I started feeling the mask tightening my face. After the mask is completely dry, I washed off my mask, then I noticed my skin is brighter, tighter and much cleaner. Plus the price is reasonable for this product, you can totally use it often and not break the bank.

Bodyshop 3 in 1 Blue Corn Deep Cleaning Mask

It's got stronger cleaning effect than Yes To Carrot's c the difference. The irritation feeling is a bit stronger at the beginning too. But you can really see your face get brighter with a healthier glow afterwards.  It's not too pricy either. It's good to have it around and use it when you want to give you face a deep cleaning.  Using it once a week is more than enough in my opinion.


Jurlique Intense Recovery Mask:

My dear friend, Joan, recommended this mask. The price is at the higher end. However, this mask is AMAZING. It doesn't irritate at all and it's like getting a mini face lift. You have to let it completely dry before washing it off to get the most out of the mask.
The mask itself is really smooth and fine, and it feels more like a cream. But it's in muddy green color. After you wash the mask off, you will notice the person in the mirror looks like you in your last year book. haha... ok.. I am exaggerating a bit here. But, you definitely can see the visibly "youthified"  you! (Yea.. I made that word up)
If you have a slightly bigger budget for mask, you should pick this one up. It will save you some $ that you would normally spend in spa.



The followings are Borghese masks. Borghese masks are probably the MOST famous mud masks in the world~ I used it once before when my mom used to have it in her vanity. ( Yea, I stole some from her jar!) But, I haven't used it for a while. If anyone is using it right now, please share your experience. I would love to know if I should get it too.
