What the gurus are saying

This cream's heaviness splits opinions sharply. Those with dry under-eyes or a tolerance for thick textures praise how thoroughly it hydrates and moisturizes without triggering milia, and many reach for it nightly as an intensive treatment. However, some gurus find it too dense to absorb comfortably, requiring lengthy tapping to work in, and note it lacks ingredients specifically targeted to thinner eye-area skin, making it function more like a basic moisturizer than a specialized eye treatment. Those prone to milia or who prefer lighter formulas may want to patch-test first.

"The Kiehl's avocado eye cream is an incredible eye cream for underneath makeup specifically."
Top Pick: eye cream
All 5 takes from Allie Glines
#1 Skincare at Sephora: What I'd Buy for YOU! 🛍️
"The Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado is so good, it's my current favorite eye cream especially for nighttime. I just love how it feels around the eyes. It's like really heavy duty but not, it really moisturizes the eye but it's never caused any sort of milia bumps or anything around my eyes either, which I struggle with. I feel like a lot of more rich eye creams tend to do that on me and this one does not. I always have one of these on hand and I always recommend it to all my family and friends too."
The #1 Makeup from September 2023!! 😍
"This eye cream is actually a very different texture than anything else I've really tried. It just sinks into the eye area but it's the perfect amount of weight. It's not too heavy to where it causes bumps around the eyes or anything like that. I just think it's beautiful. I look forward to using this every night. It really hydrates the under eye area and the texture is so unique. I love it."

"This is the Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado. It's normally $60. This is such a phenomenal eye cream. I honestly swear by it, especially for prepping the under eyes for makeup. It is phenomenal, and it's one of my favorite eye creams. This is extremely nourishing and hydrating. I would pay full price for these over and over again."
THE BEST HAIR, SKIN & BODY PRODUCTS OF 2023
"The Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado, I'm so late to this bandwagon but I love this stuff. It's so hydrating yet it's lightweight, but somehow it's rich, I don't know how they did this in this formula. It doesn't break me out around my eye area, which I love, and it preps the skin perfectly for underneath makeup. I love using this at night as my eye cream, it's so good. This is an amazing eye cream, this might be my favorite eye cream of the year honestly, it's so nice."

"You guys turned me on to this this year. It comes in a duo, so you better really like this because you get quite a bit of it and it lasts forever. If you are a Kiehl's avocado eye cream fan, it's a great time to pick it up. I won't be repurchasing this right now because I have plenty to use and a little bit goes a long way."

"It is so rich for the under eye area. Now, if you get milia in the under eye area, you might want to think twice because this is an extremely rich cream. But if you have redness, it also has a little green in it to help with redness. I love it. Overnight, it's basically an overnight mask for your under eye area. It is super super rich. I would say that if you don't have crepey under eyes, I wouldn't use this. And it's not going to help with dark spots. It's just going to be very hydrating, emollient, especially during the dry months. I get like just sort of dry skin right in the corners of my eyes. So, I've just been lathering this stuff on at night. Also, just a gorgeous formula."

"This is Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado. And it really is a staple for a lot of people. It's rich, it's thick, and it's nourishing. And that's why I don't like it because it's maybe a little bit too thick for my under eyes. This is based around avocado oil and shea butter, which again, a little bit outdated, a little bit old, but they moisturize well enough. But the formula is fairly heavy. It doesn't do much beyond that, which is fine again because that's all you really need under your eyes for most people."

"I actually used to love the Kiehl's creamy avocado eye treatment so much back in my 20s when I was first getting into eye cream, but as my skin has changed it's just too thick and so much work. I don't have the time to sit tapping in an eye cream for a good 5 minutes until it's finally rubbed in. This is a good example of an eye cream that may as well just be a moisturizer, because from what I can see there is no single ingredient in here specifically targeted to the more delicate, thinner skin under your eyes."

"Then I will go in with my Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado, which is super nice and creamy and rich. You don't need to use a lot, a little bit goes a really long way. I really like using it on the days when I'm filming or doing really glam makeup, because I tend to get dryness around my eyes, and I need that extra moisture because I like coverage there. It helps to counterbalance the powders or coverage that I'm applying in the delicate eye area."
