Nerium Eye-V Moisture Boost Hydrogel Patches are skin patches you place around your eyes to improve hydration. Read our Nerium Eye-V review to find out if these skin patches are worth the high price.
What is Nerium Eye-V?
Nerium Eye-V is a new product from multilevel marketing company Nerium. The eye patches promise to “awaken your eyes with an intensive hydrating boost of essential age-defying ingredients”.
Like other eye care treatments, Nerium Eye-V wants to help alleviate signs of aging around your eyes – including wrinkles and puffiness. The non-slip eye patches are designed as a once-a-week treatment to help boost your skin before date nights, alleviate the signs of a late night, or soothe your skin after a long flight.
You place the skin patches on your eyes, wait an hour, then remove the skin patches to enjoy clearer, smoother skin underneath.
Sounds great, right? Let’s take a closer look at how Nerium Eye-V skin patches work – and the science behind the ingredients.
How Does Nerium Eye-V Work?
Nerium Eye-V uses trademarked Nerium formulas like SIG-1191 and I-FIL4R, both of which are trendy marketing names for straightforward hydration/moisturization molecules. These are similar moisturization formulas to what you’d find in a $20 moisturizer from your local supermarket.
In addition to these formulas, Nerium Eye-V uses aloe vera extract, glycerin, green tea, and lavender extract. Again, these botanicals and herbals are similar to what we’ve seen in other moisturizers on the market. There isn’t anything unique about the ingredients listed.
To use Nerium Eye-V, you apply the patch to the cheekbone area underneath your eye. The patch is shaped roughly like a raindrop, with the tip of the raindrop reaching the corner of your eye near your nose, and the “circle” part of the raindrop focusing on your upper cheekbone and crow’s feet.
Some of the specific promises of Nerium Eye-V include:
- Hydrate your eye area
- Brighten the appearance of the skin around your eyes
- Reduce the appearance of puffiness
- Firm your skin
- Diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Ultimately, Nerium Eye-V makes the same claims as other skin care treatments: it promises to clear up your skin, firm your skin, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
How to Buy Nerium Eye-V
Nerium Eye-V is currently available through Nerium distributors worldwide. Just like with most other Nerium products, you won’t find it in stores or on conventional retail websites.
Nerium Eye-V Pricing
Pricing details for Nerium Eye-V have not yet been released. However, Nerium, like many MLMs, isn’t known for its cheap pricing. Remember: most of the money you pay for Nerium Eye-V doesn’t go towards the actual product; it goes towards the commissions of the salespeople who sold you the product (including the multiple levels of commissions up the ladder).
Other Nerium skin creams – like their Age-Defying Optimera creams are priced between $100 and $150 per 30mL (1 fl oz) bottle. You can expect the Nerium Eye-V skin patches to be priced at a similar rate.
Scientific Evidence for Nerium Eye-V
Nerium does not appear to have tested their Eye-V skin patches in any clinical trials to date. The official website makes no mention of any tests that have taken place.
That’s not a good thing: when you’re paying a lot of money for a skin treatment, you expect it to be backed by scientific evidence.
The Nerium Eye-V skin patches probably work to hydrate the sensitive skin around your eyes. The real question is whether or not they work better than a conventional moisturizer or face mask – like a moisturizer you can buy from a supermarket for under $20.
Nerium is asking you to pay a lot of money for their Nerium Eye-V skin patches. When you’re paying this much money, you expect to see specific evidence that it works as advertised to alleviate your skin problems. Unfortunately, with Nerium Eye-V, we don’t see any evidence of that.
Customer Reviews for Nerium Eye-V
What do real customers have to say about the Nerium Eye-V skin patches? The skin patches are a brand new product, so no legitimate customer reviews have appeared online to date.
However, if you look at other Nerium products online, you can probably guess what types of Nerium Eye-V reviews will show up.
All of Nerium’s skin care products either seem to get suspiciously good reviews online or overwhelmingly negative reviews. In many cases, the positive reviews have a “fake” feeling to them, while the negative reviews are from people who are furious that they paid so much for such an average skin care product.
That’s why most Nerium products seem to have a 3/5 star rating online: half of the customers leave 5/5 star reviews, while the other half leave 1/5 star reviews. Again, if you’re spending this much money on a skin care regimen, you expect to see ratings closer to 5 stars.
We’ll update this post with more information when more Nerium Eye-V customer reviews appear online.
About Nerium
Nerium is a multi-level marketing company that specializes in skincare products, including facial treatments, pre-packaged skincare regimens, and moisturizers like its Optimera cream. The company also sells a nutritional supplement called EHT that promises to boost your brainpower using ingredients like caffeine and ginkgo biloba.
Nerium was founded by Jeff Olson, best-known for his previous work with Pre-Paid Legal. Pre-Paid Legal (known today as LegalShield) is a multilevel marketing company that has been punished by the SEC in the past. In Missouri alone, the company has been forced to settle 400 lawsuits, including one where LegalShield agreed to pay a customer $9.9 million.
The shady background of the founders and the lack of scientific evidence for Nerium’s products have led some people to call Nerium a scam, citing other “red flags” like unrealistic income expectations.
The company, officially known as Nerium International, LLC is based in Addison, Texas.
Nerium Eye-V Review Summary
Nerium Eye-V suffers from the same problems as other Nerium skin care products: the company charges a very high price for the products, but then refuses to publish any scientific information about the product. As far as we can tell, Nerium Eye-V has never been tested in a clinical setting.
When you’re being asked to pay this much money for skin care products, you should expect to see lots of scientific evidence. Other skin care manufacturers that sell products in the $100 to $150 price range are happy to provide scientific evidence.
Overall, Nerium Eye-V will likely moisturize the skin under your eyes. However, there’s no evidence that it works any better than a $20 moisturizer you’d buy from your local supermarket.
I just got done using the eye patches and there is a noticeable difference. Trust me my husband said something is different about your eyes. So there’s the proof. Also use the night skin care cream. Unbelievable after 15 min pores are smaller and skin discoloration is fading. So I believe what I see not what critics wrote..
You have obviously NOT done your research on the phenomena known as Jeff Olson aka the Millionaire Maker in the Direct Sales/Multi-level marketing industry! There is a reason that Nerium Int’l hit $1 Billion in cumulative sales with 1 product in only 2 countries in 4 years!
It is interesting to read your article and your insinuation that you are being “ripped off” by the prices charged by Nerium to pay sales people! Direct Sales/Multi-level Marketing are the future. When shopping at the Mall and purchase products you are paying for the rent of that business’s building, the payment of employee salaries, etc., and advertising! This is one of the many beauties of Direct Sales. You bring down the price by eliminating the majority of these expenses.
Many people have a negative view of Direct Sales/Multi-level Marketing Companies without even realizing that when the work a traditional 9-5 job, that is the true pyramid! The owner of the company is the person you are making the $$$$ for, the owner is the one at the top!
Anyone can call themselves the supplement police and your lack of research and obvious bias are sadly examples of that!
Please know the facts before putting them in print. Don’t report half truth! FAKE NEWS!
$8 per treatment….not expensive at all! Results are fantastic….I have personally tried them….and last up to a week! The prices stated here are incorrect and I’m not sure how the author can say the eye patches are expensive when this was written before their release. Prices for all products are between $40 and $90 dollars and last 1-2 months. I’ve been using Nerium for 5 months and have experienced dramatic improvement in my skin.

Make up your own mind, based on something real, and not negative speculation. Everything is backed by a 30 day, empty bottle guaranty. You will love, love Nerium!
