Instantly illuminate and brighten dull under-eyes with Brighten-i™ Eye Cream. This lightweight, hydrating and eye-brightening cream targets dark circles and uneven skin tone to visibly improve under-eye brightness with lasting results. ​ ​

      It works!!

      I’ve been using this cream diligently now for 6 months and I can confidently say it works. You do have to have the right type of eye circles though. If it’s the type that can’t be helped with a brightening or caffeine cream then I wouldn’t bother with this product. I use it in combination with the caffeine cream. I apply the caffeine cream first and let it dry for one minute and folllow with the brightening and then moisturiser. It def works. Most of my dark circles and eye bags are gone. I’m very happy with this purchase

      Bright Eyes!

      I love this stuff. Especially pairs well with the omega water cream. Bright and youthful looking skin.

      Like cottage cheese in a tube

      I've really enjoyed the Inkey List's other eye creams, but this one is unfortunately a total miss for me. I never thought it would be possible to be repulsed by a product's texture, but I find this eye cream viscerally nauseating—it's watery and chunky, even after shaking and even massaging the tube. Honestly, it just looks and feels expired, but from other reviews, it sounds like it's just...like this.

      Guys, their other eye creams are normal. Get their other eye creams. And run far away from this one.

      Hello Bethany,

      Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback about our Brighten-i Eye Cream. We're truly sorry to hear about your experience with the texture of this product, particularly as you've enjoyed our other eye creams. While the unique formulation of this product does have a different consistency from our other eye creams, we understand how unsettling and disappointing it must be to receive a product with a texture that you find unpleasant. This isn't the experience we want for our customers, especially those who have been loyal to our eye care range. We would be grateful if you could reach out to our askINKEY Team who can support you further with your experience and help identify a more suitable eye cream solution for your needs 🖤
