What the gurus are saying

This cream draws mixed responses from experts. One dermatologist found it gentler than competing formulas but noted it may not deliver the staying power of stronger options in the category. Another praised its vitamin K content for helping with redness, though the takes here are limited so far and more voices would help round out the picture.

"IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Cream is a rapid bag reducer and de-puffer. It makes the under eye area feel tight and smooth again."
~Mixed
"There's this one from IT Cosmetics, and I think from the reviews I've seen and people use a lot of it, it's one of the weaker ones of the bunch so it doesn't grab and hold as much. But the downside, just like Dr. Shaw said, it can be drying, allergenic, it can flake. But functionally, this does something nothing else does. It grabs, holds, and tightens. The results in this video, I'm 100% certain are real."

"It doesn't has their chaos eye cream for redness with vitamin K"

"The effects really aren't that long lasting. The only way you're going to get a long lasting effect is if it's all you put on your face and you skip the makeup, and even then it will crease and crack throughout the day. It may be great for a photo shoot, or for a very short visit to somebody important where you're trying to have a Cinderella effect, but it's not great, and it's not going to help your face in the long run."

"It also has denatured alcohol in it, which makes it fast absorbing but can make for a more drying product. If [...] you've been using the Peter Thomas Roth product and getting great results with temporary tightening, I think you're going to be let down significantly by the IT Cosmetics product because it's just not as dramatic, and it's forty dollars for half an ounce, more expensive than the Peter Thomas Roth."

"My absolute favorite nighttime eye cream has been the IT Cosmetics eye cream, but I ran out of that and was feeling inspired to try something new."

"I think that the best product for perfecting the appearance of under eye lines and wrinkles in the short term is a newer release from IT Cosmetics, their Bye Bye Under Eye Bags. [...] This isn't a product that gives you lasting results, it only lasts as long as you have the product on, but while it's on it definitely perfects the look of your eye area, any imperfections, lines, and wrinkles."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Retinoids

Retinoids are among the best studied ingredients in dermatology, with solid evidence for acne and for the fine lines and rough texture that come from sun exposure. Dryness and flaking in the first few weeks are common and usually settle.

Vitamin C

Topical vitamin C is an antioxidant with reasonable evidence for dullness and uneven tone. It breaks down in light and air, so how a product is formulated and packaged matters as much as the percentage on the front.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.
