I shared a product on Instagram stories this weekend, and I had to quickly share it on the blog so I could let you know how it works! This incredible under eye cream proven to reduce dark circles also combats under eye bags and wrinkles.
I started using FRÉ products in 2019, and I have always loved the quality of them. Their brand was featured way back in 2019 in our gym bag post.
They have so many other products with unique ingredients, I wanted to try out some more for our readers.
In early April I started using their Brighten Me Eye Cream and Recover Me Night Cream. I will do a post on the night cream later because it is also amazing. Today we are focusing on the eye cream because I was really impressed with the results.
Incredible Under Eye Cream Proven To Reduce Dark Circles
There were several ingredients in this under eye cream (use code ALEXISROCH for 35% off) that caught my eye when I was doing some research, and I knew I had to try it out.
New Applicator Tip Added in 2024:
If you have purchased this amazing under eye cream in 2024, you will notice a new applicator tip added. This enhances how well this cream works by allowing you to apply it directly from the tube, then massage it in with gentle outward strokes. You get an additional benefit of lymphatic drainage with this application.
Here are the top ingredients making this a unique eye cream for dark circles.
Adipoless
This is a patented ingredient created from quinoa extract. This ingredient helps to strengthen capillaries around the eye and also improves skin elasticity in the eye contour area. Adipoless is clinically proven to reduce dark circles within 28 days! I noticed a difference in a little over a week. It continued to brighten my under eye area over the next few weeks.
Eyeliss
This ingredient is an anti-inflammatory which reduces puffiness and under eye bags.
Argania Active Complex
This is a unique patented substance with FRE that contains stem cells that increase production of collagen. It rejuvenates dull skin. In this formula is organ oil which hydrates and nourishes the skin. This oil is high in vitamins A and E.
Niacinamide
We have talked about niacinamide many times over the years on Chemistry Cachet, and it continues to be one of my favorite skincare ingredients. Niacinamide is a form of Vitamin B3. It is a great anti-inflammatory and calms irritated skin. It prevents evaporation of moisture from the skin, boosts collagen, and smooth wrinkles.
My Results
I started using this eye cream in the beginning of April. I have mentioned many times I struggle with dark circles. For me, a lot of it is skin tone, but also genetics. I test and try stuff all the time for dark circles! Anyways, when I started using this, my dark circles were looking much more prominent because I wasn’t sleeping, but was also very sick from my pregnancy. I started using this every night and morning. Just about a week into, I noticed my under eye area lightening so much. After just a few weeks, my under eye circles were very light, but the skin under my eyes was also tighter.
I can also tell the success of a product by what people say to me also. My husband told me he was glad I was able to put some make up on (I had been so sick, I didn’t put on make up for months lol). I said oh, I am not wearing any. He just though my eyes looked so bright.
I am continuing to use this eye cream (code ALEXISROCH at checkout!) right now. The same tube has lasted me this long!
My Friend Megan’s Results:
I bought this for my friend Megan to use, and this was her results after two months. I was so impressed dight how well this worked for her!! I love testing out products on friends and family to share the results with you too, it ca be so helpful to see how it works for others.
She sent this photo to me:
How To Use It:
A few small dabs under your eyes and around the tops of your eyes. I gentle dab and pat it into the skin morning and night.
That is it! You only need a small amount to achieve results.
If you are looking for a great eye cream, I highly recommend try this one.
Update Summer 2024
It has been over two years since I started using this product now, and it is still my favorite one. My under eye area is over all much healthier, less wrinkles, and less dark circles. Some people think I am in my 20s, not 37! I think it is due to my eyes looking much younger. Good skincare does make a difference. Combining this under eye cream with this powerful liquid collagen has been readers dramatic anti-aging difference for eyes!

Alexis can you tell me a little more about the stem cells in this cream. Where might this come from. I thank you for all of your testing and sharing with all of us.
ALl their products are plant based, so the stem cells come from the argan they use in their products 🙂
Thank you for the tips! I am 65 and looking for one product that will help with both the dark circles as well as the droopy/puffy area above the eye. Will the Fre be my best bet? Thank you!
This product does help with puffiness too with the addition of eyeliss as an ingredient. I use it above my eye and below it, and it does reduce puffiness. For the droopy area, that would be hard to do with just a cream, but I have found that facial massage along with a good eye cream works wonders! My mom is also 65 and she has seen benefit facial massage and cupping for the droopy areas above her eye 🙂 I hope this helps!
Thank you! Do you mean a professional facial massage, or are there exercises I could do myself?
And please forgive my ignorance here, but what is cupping?!
For facial massage, I just do it at home. I look up youtube videos and do them a few times a week. No video in particular, I just try different ones. Here is a list of skincare tools I use with the cupping tools in them. They are number 6 on the list. They have instructions with them or you can look up a youtube video for facial cupping on ways to use them. I do the facial cupping every few days!
Thank you so much for the guidance, Alexis!
