What the gurus are saying

One expert praises it as an excellent makeup primer that preps the under-eye area beautifully and works well for those doing their makeup daily, calling it timeless. However, another found the formula absorbs quickly and feels dry, delivering minimal hydration or richness despite its nourishing ingredients. Those who prioritize a lightweight base that plays nicely with makeup may find it worthwhile; those seeking deep moisture and plumping should look elsewhere.

"The formula itself isn't that rich, kind of like we're used to. It's absorbed already. That's gone. That's not what I want. It feels dry on my skin. It has shea butter, squalene, vitamin E. You're telling me it's going to plump and smooth? It doesn't have time to because it's absorbed straight into my skin. I'm so disappointed in this product. I really, really wanted something as it is described, as that richness, that smoothness. I could use any other eye cream and it will give me more hydration and more moisture than this. I am so disappointed with the ingredients in there, the vitamins, everything it claims to have and do. It is not good. I think it'll be good if you don't need that excessive moisture, if you just want something that kind of helps to hydrate the area ever so slightly. But if you are looking for more, it's not going to deliver that."

#1 Skincare at Sephora: What I'd Buy for YOU! 🛍️
"The Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Eye Base is one of my favorite eye creams underneath makeup. It looks so beautiful, it really preps the under-eye area, and it's just nice to have some skincare products that you know are going to work with makeup, especially if you are a makeup artist or if you do your makeup every single day and you want to make sure that your skin looks and feels nice underneath."

"I'm going to be prepping around the eye area using the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Eye Base. This is also such a beautiful product and although it hasn't been around as long as the vitamin enriched face base, to me it's just as timeless."
