Summary
This is a bizarre product. It's not the best eye cream I've ever used, not by a country mile. It's not the best eye brightener/concealer/correcter. It does a brilliant job at being a one-and-done product though. I felt it brightened and hydrated the area around my eyes though. The texture is like very soft butter and it does need one to spend time patting and blending it in.

Summary
the product comes in a good quality, but light weight, plastic container with stylish labels which are easy to remove after use to reuse the pot for travel once empty. The container is able to go in your dishwasher. The product has a tint and slight shimmer. This made it one that I left in the cabinet as I don't tend to use tinted creams, however after a period of starting my day at 5am I found the shimmer quite useful to hide the evidence of my tiredness. The product didn't accumulate in fine lines around the eye area, making it a hero product. My eyes felt moisturised all day long and the product texture was rich and beneficial for my dry skin.

Summary
I don't know whether these creams are quite the same as I tested the cream with an eye image on the package. And it does make difference.The cream has very light, smooth and silky texture and it's easy to apply. After applying it onto the under eyes area, you can feel the skin begin to smooth out and relax immediately.The eye area is supple and lifted, fine lines are less visible, appearance improved. The cream itself is slightly tinted in order to hide dark circles and even skin tone. And though I normally do not have dark circles, the cream can help to even and brighten skin tone beneath the eyes. Reflective glitter particles contained also provide younger and healthier look.
Although the cream doesn't feel greasy it gives not very pleasant feeling of sodden eyes area to me personally. It's unwonted as it lasts rather long after applying. Moreover not long ago I regretfully had to notice fairly strong alcohol smell emerged from this pot with the cream. Possibly it can be linked to the prolonged stay in the hot room for weeks last season and I don't know if it's safe to use it currently.
Overall I definetely recommend this remarkable cream to try not only under eyes but on other areas of face where lines and wrinkles are present.
