Kiehls' Facial Fuel Eye De-Puffer, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways!
1) You're the third eye de-puffer I've tried and you're my favourite. I don't want to try any more.
2) You're short and stubby, but that means less draggage when I apply you under my eye. One swipe and we're done! It also means you don't take up much room in the medicine cabinet and you don't fall over like the tall skinny eye de-puffers do.
3) You don't feel oily or greasy on my skin and it's almost like there's nothing there when I apply you.
4) You WORK! My undereye area is smooth and less puffy after I use you.
This is what Kiehl's has to say: This lightweight cooling de-puffing eye stick is formulated with caffeine and refreshing Arctic Root to minimize puffiness, and to help revive and awaken tired eyes. Convenient and portable packaging also allows the formula to glide on easily, providing an instant cooling effect.
What it says: This "no baggage," portable eye stick is the ultimate pick-me-up for tired eyes on the go. Enriched with Caffeine, Arctic Root and Hibiscus Extract, our anytime formula gently glides under the eye area to provide an immediate cooling effect, while hydrating and helping reduce the look of signs of fatigue common with active lifestyles. The appearance of under-eye bags and dark circles is diminished.
It's a short tube, maybe 3-4 inches tall and the product twists up, like a deodorant or lip balm. It has the texture of a light lip balm. The Facial Fuel Eye De-puffer retails for about $18.50 US.
You apply it directly to the eye area, sweeping it from the outside corners in along the eye socket. You can apply it above your eye as well. It feels smooth and cool on the skin and is very soothing on raw, first-thing-in-the-AM eyes, puffy eyes. It definitely helps to minimize minor puffiness and plumps the skin ever so slightly to decrease fine lines. There is very little fragrance. You can use your finger (I use my pinkie) to tap in any excess product on your skin.
LOVE!

How does it perform under concealer? Is it a smooth base?

I haven't had a problem. It absorbs really well into the skin and so little comes off the stick when you apply it anyway. I've noticed an improvement in my undereye concealer - less falling into the fine lines I appear to have earned.
