Korres has become one of my favorite skincare brands. From Greece and made with natural ingredients including plants from Greece, I find Korres gentle, effective and relatively affordable.
During Korres’ 40% off sale around Black Friday, I bought a few items. Also, I had signed up for their loyalty points program, and I managed to get a couple of full size products for free! (BTW, Korres now has a 30% off sale on Body Care products and Fragrance.)
One of the products that I bought is Korres Black Pine 360° Eye-Lift Super Serum. New to me, the black pine in this product collection is supposed to boost collagen and elastin levels.
The lightweight white serum comes in an airtight plastic container that looks like an injector. With the injector, it’s easy to expel just a tiny drop from the slim nozzle on to my finger to tap onto the skin all around my eye.
Though the eye serum lists “fragrance” in the ingredient list below, I do not smell any scent. It is possible that it is a neutral, masking scent.
My goal in trying it was to add more elasticity and firming to the skin above my lid. It takes about 30 seconds to dry, and then I apply whichever eye cream I am using.
Korres’ Product Description
A potent eye lift serum that visibly lifts the entire eye area, including the upper lid, while addressing multiple signs of aging, including loss of elasticity, firmness and the visible appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This lightweight anti-aging eye treatment is powered by Black Pine Extract to help boost collagen and elastin production and restore skin’s youthful bounce. Antioxidant Dill Extract helps defend against skin-aging environmental damage. Mica delivers an instant brightening effect that diminishes the look of dark circles and helps address signs of fatigue.
Korres reports that 81% of their research panelists experienced instant eye lifting, and 97% experienced upper eye lid lift after 28 days. So far, I see instant eye lifting after using the serum. I’ve been using the serum for about 2 weeks.
Key Benefits
In addition to the upper eyelid firming benefit I am seeking, the eye serum:
- Visibly firms, lifts and tightens skin under eyes
- Smooths fine lines + wrinkles
- Brings the elasticity back
Product Information
- 0.51 fl oz/15 ml regularly priced at $61
- tested by dermatologists
- vegan, cruelty-free
- silicone-free
- recyclable packaging.
Final Thoughts
So far, I really like Korres White Pine 360° Eye-Lifting Serum. I get the immediate benefit that I sought (upper eyelid lift), and as time goes on, I hope I will be able to skip a day. Frankly, if I had known how much I would like this eye serum, I would have bought two during the sale. Oh well, I will wait for the next sale!

As you know, I have long been a big fan of Korres, and this eye serum sounds like something that I would like. It’s good to know that you like it so far, and that the inclusion of fragrance has neither been detectable, nor irritating. Thanks for the review, Allison. Good job getting it 40% Off!

I really love almost everything I’ve tried from Korres. The ingredients are very good, and they’re good for sensitive skin. The Eye-Lifting Serum was a nice discovery for me. So far, so lovely…especially at 40% off!
Hi Allison,
I decided to try the serum based on your recommendation (since I’ve been very happy with the City Beauty Lid Lifting treatment you wrote about a while ago) and was able to basically get 2 for one by signing up for and using points that were immediately credited on the Korres website. I was actually shocked that they allowed it, so you (and your followers) might want to try that yourself….unless it was just a fluke. Anyway, I’m looking forward to trying the product and hope it helps my stubborn upper eyelid wrinkles.
Not a fluke, Amy! I shopped during their 40% off sale around Black Friday, and they did the same thing including crediting points immediately. I managed to score two full size products that were delivered along with the two I purchased. Good deal! I hope the eye serum works for you!
That’s great, thanks!
Just by the name I could tell it’s what you always look for. I’m glad you are starting to see results.
Yes, you know me! Eye-lifting is my jam!
So glad to hear about this! I’m looking for something to replace my SBLC eye lifting serum and this is so much more reasonably priced!
Is the SBLC eye lifting serum something that Sus uses in her work? I wasn’t familiar with SBLC, so I looked it up. What I found was a private label cruelty-free, vegan brand of cosmetics for the professional community. Sounds interesting, but I wasn’t able to see pricing or the entire skincare line. I really like most of Korres’ skincare products, and so far this one doesn’t disappoint!
