I really like this forumla a lot. I have tried everything for my puffy allergy eyes through the years at all prices. This is very simple and helps a bunch. It brings the puff down about 80% and that is a miracle for me!!! Plus, NO MILIA!!!!!

I purchased three of the gumballs and will purchase a full size if it is offered.

This formula is working well for me. Most eye creams irritate my skin, and this one does not! :D I keep the jar in the refridgerator, in the cubbies for eggs (old 'fridge!), so that the gel is nice and cool when I use it. It definitely helps in the mornings! I too would love for this to be in the regular line.

I just got the gumball and tried it a few days ago. It felt good but turned the skin around my eyes red, maybe it's the caffeine?

My friend had that happen, but it faded pretty quickly and didn't hurt. I haven't noticed it since I don't even look in the mirror to use it. I figure it's the caffeine stimulating blood flow in the area (hence the red flush) and encouraging the body to carry away the extra fluid that's causing the puffiness. Or at least that's my best guess... :P If the red doesn't fade after a bit though, it may be that you're sensitive to the caffeine, though in that case I would think the area would feel irritated too.

I keep this gel in the fridge too :) (and most of my eye care products and eye masks)
This has a very light texture and should work on milia-prone eye areas too. Absolutely love it.
Am using it day and night.

I'm really liking this for waking me up in the morning. It tightens up my heavy upper lid - not quite hooded but definitely moving south with age. Really helps shift the tell-tale pillow marks from my face when running late :lol:
