First of all, if you are prone to really dark circles, there are no products out there that will be a miracle and cover them perfectly. This Garnier product sure does a pretty good job at it though! Starting off, the rolling tip is great for application! I don't waste any product, and it glides on very smoothly, and only takes a second to finish blending in with a finger.. The make-up covers pretty well- it is not perfect, but it improves dark circles a ton. I've bought a lot of products for dark circles, and spent a range of different amounts, and this product holds up well to all of them at a fraction of the cost. This product also tends to lighten up the area a bit, and has some reflective qualities, which really helps with looking tired through the day. It does sometimes wear off partway through my day, but it's a compact size that's easy to carry around, and easy to apply, so that's not a really big problem. Absorption I never feel like I have make-up caked on top of my skin with this product.

I bought the Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller after I had a good experience with the anti puff eye roller. I liked the fact that it was a concealer also. I read the box to make sure that's not all it was. It clearly said that it would improve the appearance of dark circles while the concealer covered them up. I was skeptical, but I bought it anyway because it was on sale. The concealer color was a little dark for my skin. I didn't like that, but after I put my face powder on, you couldn't really notice it. I used this every day for a few weeks, and I saw no difference in the dark circles under my eyes. They are barely noticeable to begin with, so I figured it would do something. It works well as a concealer, but they need to have more shades because it is not going to match everyone's skin tone. Absorption It absorbed well. Effectiveness It's effective as a concealer, but it does nothing for dark circles.e

Wow, super great dark spot treatment. Not only is it great for under eye problems, it is extremely effective for acne dark spots and age spots. I have basically always suffered from what we women refer to as raccoon eyes. People constantly ask me whether I ever sleep and I was getting sick and tired of it. I have always been looking for some sort of treatment for my under eye areas and this nifty little roller applicator does just the trick for me. The vitamin C in it really helped to balance out my skin tone and fade down my dark spots. I didn't even expect that I would have been able to get rid of my old acne marks too. It is amazing. And what is even more amazing is the price. Absorption It is smart and effective the way the roller works to evenly apply the gel amongst your face without getting built up or overdone. Effectiveness It works really fast, I saw results in two weeks which was the quickest I'd ever seen.

I thought this thing would be really cool and I liked the concept, but it did not work for me. I liked the idea of a roll-on under-eye cover, but it "globbed" out rather than applying a thin layer. I ended up using a make-up sponge to smooth and finish, so why bother with the roller. The tinted color isn't the greatest "eye-dea" either because it doesn't match my skin tone. It might match yours, so go for it! I think a clear product would be better. It did absorb easily after I finished the application with a make-up sponge. And it does not have an unpleasant smell or feel. So I would give it high ratings for being pretty good in those factors. I didn't use it long enough to see if it clogged my pores. I just used it once or twice then gave up. Live and learn, I guess. I have used several other Garnier products with better success. This one just didn't hit the mark for me for what I wanted it to do. I didn't HATE it, but I would never buy it again or recommend it to a friend. Absorption It does absorb well. No complaints here. Doesn't Clog Pores I didn't use it long enough to see if it clogged my pores. Effectiveness Not effective for me.

I like that the formula is tinted so it immediately corrects dark circles. The ball to apply it is to roll away puffiness while covering up dark circles. The problem is that too much comes out at once and you barely get to roll it on and after a while you end up just putting some of it on your finger and applying it that way. It does conceal really well and the formula is thin so it absorbs quickly

Its very good I use it daily. I use it as a concealer or even to cover little dark spots. Absorption It absorbs and thickens very quickly. It doesn't look white, it's very neutral. Doesn't Clog Pores This product is not oily so it doesn't clog pores. I use it every day maybe even twice a day. Effectiveness I have mayor dark eye problems and even though it doesn't cover it up completely this product is so lightweight that I love using it all the time.

I love Garnier for having skin solutions that are affordable and easy to find in the drugstore. The Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller goes on cool and dries quickly, and the consistency is thin, not creamy. It does a great job depuffing my eyes and the fair shade is a good match to my complexion. It's a little too thin to completely conquer my dark circles, and it's consistency doesn't work well under eye makeup, but I'm already in the habit of spackling on several products under the eye so it's fine for that. People with oilier skin types might appreciate the consistency more. Absorption This product absorbs very quickly, so if you want even color coverage you've got to work fast. Doesn't Clog Pores I haven't had any problems with clogged pores using this. Effectiveness The roller delivers a cooling sensation and depuffs the eye area, and the shade works well with my complexion. It provided decent coverage of my dark circles.

This new Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle Roller was too tempting for me to pass up. I am always on the lookout for new products to help improve my under eye area. The original eye roller from Garnier did not work at all for me, but I was still willing to give this a try. What appealed to me was the 2-in-1 aspect. I like that it is a concealer that could actually improve my skin. It works well as a concealer and it feels great rolling on. My eyes look better. However, I did not notice an improvement in the circles or puffiness once the product was taken off. Absorption This Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle concealer goes on very smoothly. It will flake a bit if your skin is very dry. I apply my eye cream first a few minutes before using this. It is easily blended and does not look shiny. Doesn't Clog Pores I have dry, sensitive skin and have had no issues with this Garnier Skin Renew product. Effectiveness My eyes look younger and brighter with this product. The results are temporary and once washed off I noticed no improvement in the condition of my under eye area. I have been using this for over 2 weeks. If with continued use I see lasting improvement I will amend this review.
