Anew Force Extra Eye Cream By kalar on Oct 29, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Nothing ages a person more than wrinkles and dark circles around the eyes.

Although I was using a face cream who's wrinkle reduction I was pleased with, I needed something specifically for my problematic eye areas. You know, the dark circles, puffiness, and creases that shout "I'm the mother of young children who hasn't slept 8 consecutive hours in five years!" I'm sure some of you can relate.

Because I loved the results I was getting from Avon Anew Force Extra face cream, I decided to try their eye cream. The texture is lighter than the face cream, but the instructions were a little daunting. Under no circumstances should the Avon Anew Force Extra Eye Cream be put on the upper eye lids. It is strictly for under eye treatment only. This was not a particular problem for me, since most of what I wanted to fix was under my eyes, and my aim is pretty good.

I have learned, in using lotions, creams, or anything else promising a return to youth, that about two weeks is needed to see results. After two weeks of faithful, once a day application of the Avon Anew Force Extra Eye Cream, while I did have moisturized under eye skin, I did not have reduced wrinkles, reduced dark circles, or less puffiness. This eye cream simply does not deliver on its promises, which is both surprising and disappointing given the great results I had with other Anew products.

Save your money and your hopes for another eye product. Lack of sleep is simply to much for this underperforming eye cream.
