First off, I love the vessel. Even though the .5oz siphon pump delivers too much product, you will be able to use every single drop of this cream. Provided that you control the pump, you will have zero wasted product = excellent return on investment. The cap locks tight and you can easily toss it in an overnight bag for travel. Plus the vessel is recyclable. top: full amount distributed by the pump. Below: the amount you actually use. Night time: I let my eye area get a little dry after I washed my face so I could get a true feel for this product. The first thing that I noticed was how cooling it felt. I usually use All About Eyes from Clinique and this was a different feel. It's more like a lotion than the cream/gel formula I am used to using. This product seemed a little more 'wet' to me but very comfortable. Within 30 seconds I could feel the tightness around my eyes disappear and my skin feels very comfortable....
