by Paula Begoun
In this book, author Paula Begoun reviews and rates products from more than 200 makeup and skin care lines. Begoun includes medical journals, industry reports and the FDA among her research sources. She… discusses effectiveness, possible side effects and value. Eye cream reviews appear in the same category as facial moisturizers because she claims that they are exactly the same and can be used for the same purposes. Begoun has reviewed virtually all of the products other reviewers have tried, making her book an excellent cross-reference, but the information may be a little overboard for someone who just wants to learn about eye creams. In general, however, it's an excellent resource on cosmetic products.

After reviewing hundreds of beauty products for her newsletters and beauty bulletins, Paula Begoun lists the best products of 2007. Each product earns a brief description of why it works and how it is… formulated. While Begoun does believe that the delicate eye area needs daily moisturizing, she also says that any good facial moisturizer will do. That said, she includes Kinerase Pro+ Therapy Ultra Rich Eye Repair in her list of top rated products, but says that it is effective for the entire face. Along with product reviews, CosmeticsCop.com also provides useful skin care information that can be found on the "Learn" section of the website.

For their third annual beauty awards, Natural Health partnered up with dermatologists and readers to test and rate hundreds of new natural beauty products. Products are tested for effectiveness as well as… safety (based on the ingredients list) and each has a natural component to it. Readers help to evaluate the products based on price, availability and familiarity. One winner is listed for each category for a total of 27 top picks. Clinique All About Eyes Rich takes the top honor for natural eye creams.
by Allure Editors
Allure editors, along with cosmetics chemists and dermatologists, test nearly 2,000 products and choose 187 as the best in their respective categories. The products tested include new and old eye creams… alike in order to find the best on the market. 2007's winners include Relastin Eye Silk, Patricia Wexler M.D. Fastscription Instant De-Puff Eye Gel and Murad Lighten and Brighten Eye Treatment. However, eye creams are not compared, nor are they criticized or described in depth.

Health magazine editors team up with a panel of dermatologists to test and rate new beauty products from 2007. Only the top 25 are listed, but there is a winner in every category and each listing includes a… description detailing its benefits. The judging criteria, however, is unclear. SkinCeuticals Eye Gel, AOX+ is chosen as the best eye product, but it isn't compared to others. Vichy Reti-C Intensive Corrective Care SPF 15 is also listed as the best anti-aging moisturizer for eyes, but again, is not compared to other products.
by Sally Wadyka
This is the fourth consecutive year in which Shape magazine rates beauty products. They claim that over 4,000 readers, along with Shape staff and beauty experts, weighed in on several products in each of 23… categories. Each category includes picks in both the drugstore and higher-end price ranges. Avon Anew Alternative Intensive Eye Cream and Lancome High Resolution Eye with Collaser-48 (discontinued) earn the top ratings in the eye care category.

InStyle magazine interviews nearly 200 experts and tests hundreds of products in every beauty category from cleansers and moisturizers to shampoos and conditioners. Two eye creams make the list for the Face… Treatment category. L'Oreal Advanced RevitaLift Double Eye Lift is chosen as the best eye cream for wrinkles and Prescriptives Vibrant-C Skin Brightening Eye Cream is chosen for fighting puffiness and dark circles. However, editors aren't detailed in their reasoning as to why these are chosen over others.
by Emmy Favilla
Editors at Natural Health magazine test more than 80 eye treatments and choose four winners and four runners up. Their eye cream categories are for nighttime, tired eyes, fine lines and dry skin -- but… editors don't discuss what ingredients or attributes are best for each of these conditions, nor do they question whether you need a special eye cream. Murad Eye Treatment Complex SPF8, Olay Definity Eye Illuminator, Zia Ultimate Eye Crème and Shikai Borage Dry Skin Therapy Eye Cream are chosen as editor's picks. Runners-up include products from Dove, Nature's Gate, Weleda and Vichy.

Editors of Cosmopolitan magazine list top beauty picks for 2007. There are several products chosen for face, body and hair categories, and each features a brief explanation of why it was chosen. Eye… treatments are listed under the "eye enhancers" category, where Prescriptives Anti-Age Advanced Protection Eye Cream SPF 25 is chosen as the best "Dream Cream." Unfortunately, there's no commentary here that describes how editors chose these products over others, however.

by Editors of Self Magazine
Editors of Self Magazine list the best beauty products of 2007. Top products are listed under face, body, makeup, hair and sun categories.

Though interesting, this site is slightly difficult to navigate, and it takes a lot of scrolling to get to the information on eye cream. Reviews are generally for new products on the market. While all… products are reported to be tested, only "What Works" makes it into the column, so the ratings are entirely positive. Reviews include high-end products, such as Kate Sommerville Line Release Under Eye
by Leslie George
In this article, iVillage points out the importance of eye creams, calling them "little jewels" that are "absolutely necessary for your skin care regimen." Very little information is given, though, as to… why they are essential. Five products are reviewed, with a description of each. All of them receive positive comments and none are compared to one another. It is unclear whether any other products were tested.
