TWO DAYS???? Geez, I'm ecstatic if I get results from a product in two weeks! More reasonably, I've learned to wait more like two MONTHS if what I'm looking for actually amounts to skin remodelling. And, yes, anyone who spends any amount of time surfing the 'net is familiar with all kinds of hyped products that promise you voluptuous breasts, smooth silky skin, thicker, more lustrous hair, and a bigger penis (which is quite a promise if you don't even have a teenie weenie to start with....ahem) in 37 seconds. But, this claim is made by one of New York's most highly aclaimed dermatologists, Dr. Steven Victor.
Victor has spent more than 25 years working on cutting edge skincare and his new skincare line's literature talks alot more about the science behind it than most. "Bio-Fusion™ Technology transforms every stevenvictormd cream, lotion and serum into a beneficial powerhouse by enabling up to five ingredient complexes to interact in a complementary manner. This propriety technology boosts the efficacy of each product significantly and dramatically increases results, while making your daily skincare routine less complicated. Skincare simplified, benefits multiplied. Skin begins a transformation, not only on the surface where results are most visible, but also from within where change truly counts. Skin's vivacity is renewed as its beauty is reborn." Wonkette that I am, the science interests me, and these products boast a list of unique and highly effective actives. Bottom line: science gets VERY sexy when it translates into great skin. Needless to say, I had to try this stuff.
Since these products are way too expensive for me to even think about trying the entire line (without mortgaging my house), I decided to start with the Eye Repair Rx. Before you read any further, let me warn you that 1/2 oz of this stuff will set you back $125 Again, from the line's own literature:
DESCRIPTION: Takes eye cream to a whole new level. It is actually an eye area treatment.
The latest and most advanced scientific research yielded this amazing formula. Powered by numerous super complexes, a number of which are patented, Eye Repair Rx takes on the major issues and wins.
Dark circles, puffiness, and skin atrophy are caused by increased permeability in blood vessels. Excess fluid builds up causing the eye area to look fatigued and shadowed. The key to restoring a youthful look to the eye area is improved circulation and that means stimulating the fine network of capillaries surrounding the eyes.
CLINICAL STUDIES:
• 70% of volunteers observed measurable improvements
• 35% reduction of dark circles around eyes
• 32% reduction in puffiness
• 36% visible reduction of main wrinkle volume
• 98% reduction in surface occupied by deep wrinkles
• 75% of volunteers confirmed smoother skin
WHAT IS IT?
Eye treatment using the most advanced scientific research to treat three eye care issues in one product.
Restores youthful firmness and resilience to the delicate eye area
Targets, dark circles, puffiness, fine lines & wrinkles.
BENEFITS:
Prevents puffiness, fine lines and dark circles. (All 3 concerns)
Improves skin firmness to reduce skin slackening.
Restores youthful firmness and resilience to the delicate eye area.
Diminishes dryness and repairs skin barrier around the eye area.
Cellular repair occurs due to increased oxygen levels; increased circulation.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Tri-Active Eye Repair
This complex strengthens the vascular function to eliminate fluid build up and thereby contour, reduce wrinkles and reduce under eye puffiness.
Amino Acid Concentrate (Amino acid is the building block of protein).
Stimulates collagen production to improve firmness and resilience.
Hibiscus Seed Extract
(As with the Intensive Wrinkle Repair), increases cellular activity, protects against (intrinsic and extrinsic) free radicals and relaxes muscles for an anti-wrinkle effect.
Matrikine Ceramide Activator
Peptide rich formula to reactivate cellular activity and proliferation, which restores epidermal barrier.
Optimum Nutrient Synthesis
A combination of vitamins to help diminish the visible depth of wrinkles, tighten skin and improve texture.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For everyone, all skin types, all complexions, all ages.
USAGE:
Use morning and evening. Use 1 to 2 pumps, apply to ring finger and gently pat around the orbital bone. Non-irritating, can be used on eye lids and the area below eye brows.

HELLLLOOOOO !!!! Still awake? I'm about to answer the ultimate question - does it actually work? May I have a drum roll, please?
deep deep breath here
Dammit all to hell! Yeah it works! Better than any eye product I've ever tried. And, yes (sigh), the results were noticeable in just a few days.
