Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream: The Cult-Favorite Solution for Deep Under-Eye Hydration

I’ve been obsessed with eye cream since I turned 40. One of my colleagues at Sephora and I got revved up on how we refused to go down with crows feet. Ever. So, our obsession with eye creams, serums, treatments, gels, and, masks began. Since that day I have tested dozens of eye care products. Some have scored a perfect 10 and, others aren’t worth mentioning. My latest eye cream obsession is Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream. I love it. It loves me. Perfect match. Read in and you will see why you need this eye cream in your skincare routine too!

My review of Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream:

First off, I have ridiculously dry, sensitive eyes. Too much wind, light or the wrong eye makeup and my eyes are angry and tearing. I also am prone to puffiness and dark circles. (Blame that on my other obsession — red wine.) Nonetheless, I’m always ready for the next eye cream journey.

Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream did not disappoint. This eye cream is immediately appealing because of its creamy, luxurious feel. Just the texture I love for under my eyes.

Since my dry eyes start watering at the most inopportune times, the skin under my eyes is extremely dry when left untreated. Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream visible successfully moisturizes my under eye area. Plus, the velvety feel smooth moisturized under eye skin lasts for hours. I know this because I also have an OCD habit of checking my under eye area throughout the day. Weird I know…

Also, when I apply this eye cream at night before bed, I wake up with lovely moist under eye skin.

Many women tend to apply their eye cream too close to the lash line, resulting in puffy under eyes in the morning. However, I love that Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream doesn’t migrate! So, now worried about this eye cream clogging tear ducts, resulting in puffy eyes. And, to it’s credit, this eye cream depuffs!

When I apply this avocado eye cream, there  is an  immediate “illuminating” effect on my under eye area. If you’re fighting dark circles, you will find brighter under eye skin with cumulative usage.
