Benefit Eyecon

Average member rating of 6.4
Average member rating
Rated a 5.5
Benefit Eyecon supposedly fades dark circles with orange extract and softens lines with apple extract. In reality, it temporarily makes the skin under eyes look a little brighter (the formula's shimmering white color seems to help most), but doesn't seem to do much else. After a month, I counted on it to soften shadows, but my dependence on concealer never waned. For slight shadows, use this as a quick fix but for long-term help with dark circles, keep looking.

    Sweet.

    As eye creams go this is a reasonably priced item for the punch it packs. With the sweet smell of almond I was afraid that this would be too heavy and would clog those teeny undereye pores.

December 8, 2007, 6:50 am As eye creams go this is a reasonably priced item for the punch it packs. With the sweet smell of almond I was afraid that this would be too heavy and would clog those teeny undereye pores. Instead I was treated to softness, smoothness, and just a touch of added brightness. I use this in the AM and PM before DoItDaily, my fave moisturizer. You can't rely in this alone to hide it all, as with any eye cream, but combined with products like OoLaLift and Boi-ng! you can expect excellent results. December 8, 2007, 6:50 am

    What Was This Supposed To Do Again?

    by axelhoney88 (5 reviews)
    I won a pocket-sized version of this product. I liked the packaging of the product and the name is cute (eye-con=icon, yeah yeah).

May 27, 2008, 8:15 pm I won a pocket-sized version of this product. I liked the packaging of the product and the name is cute (eye-con=icon, yeah yeah). But, after applying it day after day, I found little difference underneath my eyes. It seemed to brighten for a couple of minutes, then I would go and ask my sister if she noticed a difference in my face. "No, you look the same." I find this product pretty useless. Maybe it'll work on someone with some serious under-eye baggage... May 27, 2008, 8:15 pm

    Decent product

    by yogagurl (9 reviews)
    It has worked pretty well for me. I have noticed reduced puffiness and dark circles. I try to help out by eating right and drinking plenty of water.

One nice thing is the consistency...it is light and absorbs fast, which is great for a morning routine. I do think it is a little pricey at $28, but I've had a hard time finding anything that really works great for my eye circles. May 15, 2008, 6:26 pm

I have really dark circles under my eyes and this helped me out alot on top of making me look like I was refreshed and not so tired looking. It also lasts a good while so it was a good value for the price. I always ask that question first before I buy. I am on a budget and need to make products last as long as possible.

    It actually works!!!

    by Jecari (1 review)
    I LOVE this product!!! I never had dark circles under my eyes... until my son was born. With the baby waking up every 2 hours, I found MYSELF waking up to dark circles and puffy eyes. I tried a sample of eyecon thinking..."This probably won't work, like any other eye products", but it worked for me! February 5, 2008, 9:51 am

    dark circles

    by for_ladybug (4 reviews)
    I have had some serious luck with this product line so I was happy to buy some eyecon. However, after applying it twice a day for over a month and I have not noticed any lightening at all. I wish this was not the case for me but it is my experience. It was an expensive mistake. April 17, 2008, 10:03 pm

    LOVE IT

    by Floridalivin (1 review)
    I have semi-dark circles under my eyes. I have been appyling the cream every am. My concealer does not clump or fade. under eyes seem less dry as well. It's a keeper. March 15, 2008, 6:53 pm

    Good product.

    by LynetteWood (3 reviews)
    I have fair skin, so dark circles have always been a problem. This product does lighten the circles, and feels soothing when applied. If the jar was larger, I would have rated it higher. December 27, 2007, 7:57 pm

    super hydrating

    by christienb (7 reviews)
    When I use this cream, I feel like my skin just soaks it up. It really help reduce puffiness and lighten dark circles. I think it\'s not too pricey, especially because it works. December 9, 2007, 2:29 pm
