Our Take...
“
Let me say that I'm always on the lookout for new eye treatments, having suffered dark circles and bags under my eyes most of my adult life.
When I first read about the Sciote Vitamin C Eye Treatment ($65 in the shop), what caught my attention was "Cucumbers and Peptides" — both of which I've...

I've been trying multiple eye treatments and combinations from TIA to keep my eyes hydrated, to decrease the fine lines around my eyes, and to cut down on the puffiness under my eyes. I am in my late 50's, am far from overweight (my BMI is 24.5), I drink around four liters of water a day, exercise (probably not enough!!), and I FINALLY (after almost 30 years of taking 'call' 24/7/365) get plenty of sleep and rest. I suspect the puffiness under my eyes is at least partly genetic; my 90-year old "young", thin mother finally had to succumb to blepharoplasty surgery in her late 70's (NEITHER of us ever want[ed] to resort to injections or plastic surgery) because she could no longer read due to severe eyelid droopiness. She also had severe eye puffiness.
However, I've come full circle back to Vitamin C skin products as essential in promoting hydration, helping with inflammation and working to promote collagen production. For years, the scientific community tried to find better ways to get Vitamin C into "solution" for actually soaking INTO the skin, not sitting on top of it. So, I've started trying Vitamin C products again, (after a long hiatus of "1st generation Vit C skin products)--from TIA for my eyes, face, and neck.
I am already using Sciote Peptide+ Firming Eye Cream (with Amarte Eyeconic Eye Cream) during the day, with reasonably good firming results. After ADDING the Sciote Vitamin C Eye Treatment, after a long day, my eyes are still hydrated. Twelve hours is a lot to ask of even the most expensive eye and face creams.
Pros: This product is more of a gel than a cream and it goes on my eye areas (& lip areas) effortlessly. If you have a scent issue, it has a SLIGHT cucumber scent (which seems to go away very quickly on me) that is very pleasant. Again, it's hydrating quality and ease of application seem to be it's best qualities.
I will continue my use of this product and would recommend it as an adjunct to the eye cream or product of your choice.
Cons: None

I have been using both the Sciote firming eye cream and Vitamin C eye treatment together as stated in the directions on the bottles and I am so pleased with my results. The Vit C eye treatment is like a serum for the eye which helps with my puffiness and darkness while the eye cream is wonderful for firming and hydration.
Amazing combination! Will continue using both products.
Thank you

I have been using this product prior to my daily eye as instructed on the bottle and am in LOVE with it! It instantly tightens under my eye area and helps with puffiness in the mornings. Keeps my eye area moist, supple and supported all day long while reducing my fine lines. One of my new favorite products!

I am SO disappointed with this product.
I purchased the curated package: Sciote Vit C + AQ Eye Serum.
While AQ is doing wonders (ironing out wrinkles and lifting my 45-year old eye lids), Sciote Vit C is truly doing nothing for me.
It is not hydrating enough for the morning and if I apply it at night it gives me seriously puffy eyes the following morning...
I use it on my neck hoping it is somehow helping.

First, let me say the only reason I'm not giving the Sciote Vitamin C Eye Treatment a 5-star rating is because of the packaging. The product itself is amazing but I am not sure if I will purchase it again. Too much product comes out when I oh-so-delicately pump it one time in an effort to get less. The product is so lavish and a little goes a long way. On my tight budget, it is a stretch for me to spend this much money on an eye treatment -- but I will do it if the product works. And this does. However, I must know that I am getting my money's worth and it's not being wasted. Right now, I feel that every time I am using it, I'm wasting some. Sciote could learn a lesson from Medik8 Firewall. It dispenses the PERFECT AMOUNT every time.

I think what I like most about Sciote Vitamin C Eye Treatment is the way it just melts into my skin with no tugging and rubbing. It's gel-like texture is soothing, and I also like the very faint cucumber smell - so refreshing. My eye area is smoother and more hydrated and perhaps even a bit brighter.

Would love to try this product! I am in between eye creams right now and am leaning towards trying something new as the ones I have been using just aren't doing the trick with the puffiness/under eye circles. I have "laugh lines" around the eyes that aren't overly concerning but the creepiness is - sounds like from the reviews this one might be my holy grail. Appreciate the consideration for testing this Sciote Vitamin C Super Serum. Thank you!

I am taking advantage of Marta's sale to re-order Sciote Vitamin C Eye Treatment. I used it a while back and just loved it. When I used up every last drop, TIA featured a sale on the Sciote firming eye cream so I thought I'd try that. I liked it, but not as much as this one. I have used the AQ eye serum and also Your Best Face Correct (via a very generous sample), but the Sciote C worked the very best for me. I have puffy eyes and until using this treatment, only cucumbers did the trick, and the cucumber in this treatment's ingredient list is what persuaded me to purchase it the first time. I'm glad I did! It's the best eye treatment I have used in I can't remember how long. It made my eyes look younger and more wide awake instead of tired. I'm sticking with this one!

Hello,
I have been using the Sciote eye gel for a couple of months now and I have seen reduction with the darkness under my eyes. I have used many gels in the past with little to no results and I finally can say this Sciote product really works for darkness and puffiness.

Dear Marta and TIA,
Thank you so much for excellent customer service helping with a replacement.
Kudos to Sciote as well. The pump on a new Sciote Vitamin C Eye bottle is fully functional. I look forward to using it all up. Thanks, again.

I have been using the Eye Treatment for a couple of weeks and I love what it has done for my eye area! It has really reduced the darkness and puffiness.

Sadly, the pump is still malfunctioning. What I did was I retightened the cap. I then held the product upside down and tapped it down to remove any air pockets. When I pumped it again, it still would not dispense the product properly. It would either dispense nothing or squirt almost a dime-sized amount.
by Katya
Thanks, Marta! And thanks, Sciote. I will try your suggestion and let you know how I get on.
by Sciote Skin
Hello Kataya,
We are also very please to here you love the Vitamin C Eye Treatment as much as we do but we are so sorry you are having a problem with the pump.
You see, It really has nothing to do with the pump itself as it does with the airless container. There is really a simple solution to this issue. Since it is in an airless container, when we ship the product sometimes an air bubble may develop in the chamber and this causes the products to get "stuck". Seldom, but it happens. If you would be kind enough to try this simple remedy, I think your airless container will start to work just fine.
*** Place the cap back on the container, turn the product upside down and then tap the entire airless container on a harder surface. This will allow the air bubble to dissipate. Once that is completed turn right side up, remove the cap and pump until the product dispenses. This should fix the problem.
Again we are so sorry for the inconvenience! If this does not do the trick, please let us know and it will be replaced immediately.
Thank you again Kataya for your understanding and patience!
With gratitude,
Aldo Celeste . CEO . Sciote Skin

I have been using Sciote Vitamin C Eye Treatment for a week now and I am very pleased with the formulation. It does what it says it is expected to deliver. Fantastic hydration and firming. However, the pump stopped working after a week of use. I want to mention that I have been gentle with the pump. Now it takes about 8 to 10 pumps to dispense the product and then too much of it comes out, so you are wasting the treatment. That's really disappointing. Therefore, I have to deduct some stars due to this issue.

I have been using the Sciote firming eye cream and LOVE it so much that I decided to give this product a try as well. I am so happy that I did! They work so well together. I use the Vitamin C eye treatment as a serum and then follow with the eye cream. Such a change for the better under my eye area. I've noticed the darkness and fine lines has nearly disappeared....I'm a fan!
