Last night, I had written about 80% of this review. All of a sudden, the rainless storm that had strong winds instead knocked out the electricity. Oh well, the best laid plans..!

Lately, I’ve taken to using two different eye creams in addition to eye serum. I pretty much stick to my favorite serum, Korres Eye Serum, and my favorite cream for the crease and above, Thrive Causemetics. However, for the under eye area, I try lots of different brands. Recently, I’ve been using the Kopari Niacinamide & Caffeine Eye Bright Cream that came in one of my Ipsy boxes.
Kopari Niacinamide & Caffeine Eye Bright Cream
Kopari Beauty’s Niacinamide & Caffeine Eye Bright Cream is a lightweight, refreshing but creamy eye cream packed with clinically-backed active ingredients including niacinamide and caffeine to reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. In addition, it soothes and hydrates the under eye skin.
Following are Kopari’s benefits and key ingredients:

My Experiences with Kopari Niacinamide & Caffeine Eye Bright Cream
So far, I like Kopari Eye Bright Cream. For me, the consistency of the cream is perfect for my dry under eye area. It absorbs quickly. Importantly, it has no scent which I appreciate since I have sensitive eyes.
In terms of helping with dark circles, my dark circles emerged as I’ve gotten older and my skin has become thinner. Frankly, I don’t know that any under eye cream would help all that much. Unlike other under eye creams, Kopari Eye Bright Cream does not contain glitter or any other means of camouflage. For me, that’s fine because I am unlikely to end up with glitter or anything else ending up in my eyes. I use concealer to help cover my dark circles, and the lightweight eye cream works well under concealer. However, if you look for ingredients that help “fool the eye” to blur the under eye area, this may not be the one for you.

I’m not at all happy with my current eye cream so I might give this a try!
My problem with my eyes isn’t dark circles but loss of volume and subsequent wrinkles. I was kinda shocked when I happened to click the remote and took a close up of my face. I had no idea I had so many wrinkles. But, I always say never say never and am willing to give most things a chance! Thanks for your honest review, Allison!

Try PDRN for wrinkles and volume. Try a tube of Medicube for less than $10 and see what you think.
