Wrinkle-free Eyes Review & Giveaway

September 1st, 2009 • Related • Filed Under

You’ve probably seen the commercials for WrinkleFree Eyes 20-minute Eye Lift System. The patches look all all space-agey, and the product promises to reduce puffiness and the appearance of fine lines in about 20 minutes.

I recently received a kit to try, and unfortunately, my skin was too sensitive to the Retinol in the product for me to continue to use the kit.  The product claims that the patented nightly Retinol 4x is time released, so even though it’s four times stronger, it is less irritating. But I still experienced some redness and irritation around my eyes where I had used the patches and the cream. I did like the way the patches plumped up the skin around my eyes and made it feel firmer.

My husband, on the other hand, used the product with no skin irritation and said he noticed a reduction in the puffiness and fine lines around his eyes.

According to WrinkleFree Eyes, “using a scientific process called “Iontophoresis,” the patented micro-charged eye patch activates on contact with the skin to gently push Retinol 4x™ activating serum deep into the skin to dramatically reduce the appearance of wrinkles in only 20 minutes.”

To help maintain the results from the eye patches, the two-week starter kit includes the daily 24 Hour Face Lift™ dermal filler, as well as the nightly Retinol 4x™ intensive cream.

To use the system, you apply the eye patches and wear them for 20 minutes once a week. You also use the 24-hour Face lift dermal filler once a day and the intensive serum every night.

The system is available at retail locations including Target, Ulta, Walgreens, Walmart  and CVS for $29.99. But three lucky Lipstick to Crayons readers can win a two-week starter kit for free by entering this giveaway.

    Just “googled” this product for a review, and came to your website (jackpot!) and read what you had to say about the product. I’m in my 50’s and I really have noticed the lines, sagging, and bagging (yuck!) the last 3-4 years. I would LOVE to win this. Thanks!

  51. #51 M'lou Arnett on September 19, 2009:

    Wow, too bad that the wrinkle-free eye patches were too strong for you. 4X does sound like a lot of retinol. The eye area can be so sensitive. Your husband is a trooper! I’m trying out my own products now as we’re developing a line of anti-aging skin care products that are pure and safe AND as effective as the products available now. I try so many different formulas trying to make sure that ours are the best they can be that my friends call me “Benjamin Button”. I hope to get some samples to you (and your husband!) soon to try.
