    What the gurus are saying

    This eye cream delivers serious hydration in a lightweight formula, with a pearlescent finish that adds a morning glow. Caffeine eases puffiness and dark circles, while vitamin C and niacinamide brighten the area, and peptides address fine lines. The one thing to keep in mind: genetic dark circles may resist brightening no matter what, but the hydrating and plumping benefits definitely come through.

    "This one has vitamin C and peptides, [...] but this one has caffeine. It also contains niacinamide, shea butter, and a lot of other great ingredients to moisturize and tackle signs of aging. This one is designed to brighten up the under eyes and of course to address fine lines and wrinkles, and this does brighten. It [...] also brightens with that vitamin C but it also has nice niacinamide which can do the same thing in terms of brightening."

    IF I COULD ONLY PICK 1 PRODUCT FROM MY FAVORITE SKINCARE BRANDS | THIS WAS REALLY HARD!
    "My current favorite is the Summer Fridays Light Aura Vitamin C Plus Peptide Eye Cream and I've been using this for the last several months and I have been really impressed with this. I use this in the morning and sometimes I will use this at night time as well. This has peptides, vitamin C, it also has caffeine, a lot of different oils as well. Very, very moisturizing but it's not heavy underneath or around the eyes. If you want to use this in the morning and then of course put your under eye corrector on top, just know that that is a really nice combination. It just always sits nicely underneath makeup and sunscreen and I've never had an issue with peeling."

    "The Summer Fridays Light Aura Vitamin C Plus Peptide Eye Cream contains caffeine and niacinamide, which are great for dark circles, discoloration, and to depuff. The vitamin C and peptides address signs of aging and brighten up the under eyes. It has a [...] pearlescent finish, so I really like this for the morning because it gives that nice brightness and it sits really nicely underneath concealer, sunscreen, and makeup. [...] I just apply a little amount [...] to the under eyes, outer corner, and underneath the brow bone, and pat it in. I love that glow and plump that I get from it."

    "This is a really nice brightening eye cream. It sinks in pretty quickly. We've got a lot of really good ingredients in here: sorbic acid, the vitamin C Real Deal, argilene which is the botox in a jar peptide, rose hip oil, turmeric which is another great brightening ingredient, caffeine which is great for puffiness, and then niacinamide. I will mention a lot of times dark circles a lot of times you can't brighten them away, a lot of times they're just genetic. You can certainly use vitamin C and it's certainly going to help, but a lot of times they're there and sometimes if it's just genetically prone it's better just to sometimes camouflage them and there's not much you can do about it."

    What the evidence says.

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

    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.

    Humectants and emollients

    Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
