R's Review of Various Eye Creams

I remember the day I started using eye cream.  I was at not-so-great job that kept my stress level so high that I started developing ulcer-like symptoms.  One day, someone approached me and said "you look really tired."  I stared in shock, because I had actually gotten 10 hours of sleep that night (rare).  So I took myself to the nearest Nordstroms and bought some eye cream.  Below, please find my reviews of all eye creams I've used in the past few years.

Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv Ultimate Lift Age Correcting Eye Cream:  This is a great eye cream, it comes with a gold spoon which makes it ultra fancy.  Apparently it also has ground up pearls in it.  All things that made it fabulous and an easy sale to me :)  As much as I loved it, I think I'm a wee bit too young to be spending $100 on eye cream.

Jo Malone Green Tea and Honey Eye Cream  So this was right after the Estee, so it wasn't as great in comparison.  I couldn't honestly tell that I had been using it.

Olay Total Effect Eye Transforming Creme:  So I love the price point of this eye cream.  However, it isn't rich enough for my skin and sometimes causes irritation (which I think my skin is just changing overall).

Olay Definity Illuminating Eye Cream:  This is an eye cream I would use at night.  It doens't do well with concealer on top - it causes the concealer to flake off.  But use it at night, its fantastic.  It cools the eye and feels great.

Clinique All About Eyes Rich:  WINNER! Feels as good as the Estee Lauder, but with a better price point!

Which eye creams have you used and liked?
