"AHC is very popular in Korea through home shopping because they named it as an eye cream for face. So it feels like, wow, it's a good value for the money, because it's pretty affordable. You can use it whole face. However, if you're looking for the high moisturizing eye cream, AHC I feel it's not enough."
Top Pick: eye cream
All 5 takes from CYoung
Viral K-Beauty vs What Koreans Actually Use: Which is better? And Why?
"This eye cream is the home shopping baby, it became so popular. Eye cream used to be an expensive jar product you had to use little by little, but this one they named eye cream for face. I love it so much because it's so affordable you can put it all over your whole face."
The ULTIMATE OLIVE YOUNG GUIDE by a K-Beauty Insider
"The global Olive Young number one eye cream is the AHC eye cream for face. I used that a lot of times, but now I'm not repurchasing it, I'm just sick of it and it feels like it's not enough."
Global No.1 vs Korea No.1 Skincare: Which is Better and Why?
"AHC has been Korea's number one eye cream for a long time, it's actually an eye cream you can use on your whole face. It was released in 2012, and now there's an upgraded version, they started selling it on TV home shopping so it appealed to older women and got really popular because an eye cream that feels expensive is actually affordable, and it's moisturizing, though quite heavy, so it's not recommended for oily or combo skin. But these days a regular moisturizer works just as well as an eye cream, so I don't think I need to use this."
Chill&Chat: CYoung’s Live
"AHC's eye cream is amazing, especially for the price, and if you're lazy you can just put it on your whole face since it's marketed as an eye cream for the face. It still works great and it's not too heavy."
I Tested EVERY Olive Young Best Seller to find the BEST
"AHC is very popular in Korea through home shopping because they named it as an eye cream for face. So it feels like, wow, it's a good value for the money, because it's pretty affordable. You can use it whole face. However, if you're looking for the high moisturizing eye cream, AHC I feel it's not enough."
Yay
"This has been a one-stop shop for me. If I'm traveling, if I'm going on an airplane and I don't want to take a big tub of my moisturizer, this can be used all over the face. I love that it says what it does: real eye cream for face, concentrated eye cream for the whole face. I don't tend to go heavy on the demands of an eye cream. I want it to moisturize, I want it to be light reflective if possible, I want my fine lines and wrinkles to calm down. AHC is also affordable, nice, and available like Boots, Amazon. It's the workhorse."
