None of us are strangers to dark under-eye circles. Whether yours are due to poor sleep habits, genetics or as a side effect of aging, a simple balm stick can be one of the easiest no-fuss ways to give your eye bags a wake-up call. Not sure where to start? Tula’s eye balms have impressed reviewers of all ages, with some claiming it makes them “look years younger.” Tula’s eye balm stick comes in a cooling and brightening version called Glow + Get It, which
offers a dewy cool (blue-ish) glow, plus four other shades in its Spresso energizing eye balm (these include bronzy, gold, pink and pearlescent shades, with a similarly sheer formula). Glow + Get It and Spresso have different packaging and names, but share the same aims of cooling, hydrating and firming the skin to reduce the appearance of puffiness, dark circles and wrinkles. They both contain caffeine, hyaluronic acid, probiotic extracts and apple and watermelon, and offer a touch of shimmer (some shades more than others)
to perk up the undereye area. Reviewers ranging from their 40s to their 70s are amazed at their visibly brighter, revived under-eyes. “I’m 73 and wasn’t looking for miracles but I have to admit … it works. I used to get bags under my eyes and this morning I noticed I haven’t had any bags in months!….YES MONTHS!” one reviewer gushed, adding that they use the balm every day. “I purchased it first for its ease, but now I’m hooked. My eyes never looked lovelier.”
Others across decades found themselves similarly devoted to the Tula balm. A 64-year-old reviewer called the balm “marvelous” and wrote, “I rarely leave reviews but this brightener deserves it,” giving it a rating of “100 stars easily.” A 55-year-old reviewer claimed, “I’ve been using this for over a month and this has completely replaced any under eye makeup or highlighter I used to use. I love it!” Yet another reviewer, who said they were 43 years old, wrote, “I get tons of compliments like ‘you
look so bright’ or ‘your skin looks so fresh, what are you using?’” They also noted the convenience of the solid stick format for travel. “This baby stays with me everywhere I go since I bought it! The tube is durable and I love that the top isn’t hard to pull off but tossed around in my bag and it stays put.” They’re not the only person receiving compliments after trying the balm out, either. Plenty of reviews mention getting positive feedback from others about
their skin thanks to the balm, which shows just how effective it can be, especially considering the ease of use — just swipe it on and go. Plus, despite the admittedly steep price, users confirm that one stick can last them several months to help it earn its worth over time with consistent use. If your dark circles have been giving you grief, this simple little stick could be the “game changer” you’ve been waiting for. Buy it below at Amazon or Tula, or you
can also find the Glow + Get It and Spresso shades separately at Ulta or Target. More promising reviews for Tula’s brightening and energizing eye balms: “I will never be without this. Every morning after I wash my face my under eye area looks dark and shallow. I immediately apply this balm and it is like magic. By the time I start applying my face moisturizer, my eye area looks fresh and awake. At 48 years old, they are never going to look like I’m
20, but this balm helps a lot! The tingling feels great as I wake up. Also, the product lasts for a long time. I know it is pricy, but it is worth it in my opinion.” — Mandy R.“I seriously love this. I can see a difference as soon as I put it underneath my 57-year-old eyes. It’s not a miracle, but it definitely makes a difference. I always let it sit there for at least five minutes before I put my concealer on. You
can feel it actually cool down the eye area. Highly recommend and I’m usually not the one to recommend anything for the eye area because it’s hard to believe anyone once you spend a fortune on products, and realize that a lot of the promotional ads are just that … ads!” — Joanne L. Rezino“I am a 54 yo man with a light brown skin tone naturally and have dark circles under my eyes that are very noticeable. I also have under eyes bags that
and planning to have removed, but the dark circles under my eyes made me look exhausted all the time. I bought this product on a whim when I popped up while shopping on Amazon and bought it December 15th!After two months, there has been a significant improvement with the dark circles under my eyes! This stuff really works and am so amazed at how much better this area looks!! I put on every morning after showering and and will purchase again!!” — Joseph SFCA“So far
I really like it. It goes on smooth and I can see a difference. I’m 53 and always feel like my under eyes are puffy and wrinkly. It doesn’t smell and I haven’t gotten any eye irritation when I apply or layer in the day as I sweat.” — Miller“Not one to spend $ on beauty products as I prefer natural products such as olive oil, coconut oil, Castrol oil, etc. BUT this stuff works great!! It left the skin under eye looking rejuvenated and
hydrated. This is from a 50+ y/o person with fine lines.” — sela rod“I apply this after my daily moisturizer. Just one swipe under each eye area. You’ll get a cooling sensation. It’s tinted with a light highlighter so it’ll help you look well rested and refreshed. You can also apply this over your foundation. Just tap it in with your finger and go. I’m 41 and this does wonders for my skin appearance.” — Onewifey
Tula Glow + Get It, Tula Spresso, eye balm stick, under eye circles, dark circles, puffiness, caffeine hyaluronic acid probiotic extracts apple watermelon
So it’s basically caffeine for your under eyes? Cool.
I feel like this is just shimmer in a stick lol. Like yeah it looks brighter in the light but dark circles are cause of sleep, not apple and watermelon. Still… I might try it if it doesn’t cost like 60 bucks.
Wait are they saying it fixes under-eye wrinkles too? I thought those were permanent unless you do Botox. My aunt uses 10 different creams and nothing works, so maybe I’ll tell her about the blue-ish glow because the name “Glow + Get It” sounds fake but people in the comments seem excited.
Lol “Glow + Get It” sounds like a TikTok thing. Also how can a balm reduce puffiness and “firming” like that… is it just colder temperature? I’m not buying it unless it’s literally medically proven. But my sister was like “my mom is 73 and it worked” so now I’m curious even though I don’t believe reviews like that are legit. Either way I guess my under-eyes could use a little caffeine?
