Nourishing Eye Cream

Very likely, and it is worth knowing which kind you have because it tells you what to expect. Dry, dull, tired looking circles are by far the most common and they respond beautifully, often inside a week or two, because hydrated skin reflects light instead of scattering it. Pigmented circles, the brown toned ones, soften gradually with antioxidants and natural vitamin C, which is exactly what the resveratrol and lemon aspen are doing here. If yours are vascular, where blue veins show through very thin skin, or structural, from a hollow under the eye, those are shadows rather than stains, so the honest answer is hydration plus a good concealer. My Organic Camouflage Cream was made for precisely that.

The morning kind, where fluid has pooled overnight, settles nicely with this. Cucumber seed oil and the cooling effect of tapping it in both help, and keeping the jar in the fridge makes it better again. My rose quartz roller, used gently outward toward the ears, is lovely for those mornings too.

What makes a dedicated eye cream worth having is texture and restraint: light enough that it will not migrate into your eye and cause the puffiness it was meant to fix, and formulated without the actives and fragrances that sting there. If you have ever had a moisturiser make your eyes water, that is exactly the difference you are paying for.

Yes, and it is a lovely pairing. Keep the vitamin A serum to the face and away from the immediate eye area, then use this around the eyes afterwards. Many of my customers find the eye cream also keeps the outer corners comfortable while their skin settles into a retinoid.

It should not. There is no fragrance, no essential oils and nothing sharp in it, which is precisely why women with sore, reactive eyes tend to write to me about this one. Apply along the orbital bone rather than close to the lashes and you will be very comfortable.

Not if you give it a minute to absorb first. Creasing almost always comes from concealer going on over a cream that is still sitting wet, or from too much of either. A grain of rice of eye cream, a minute's pause, then the smallest amount of concealer patted in.

Comfort is immediate, and it is the thing women mention first. The smoothing and brightening builds over the first one to two weeks as the skin properly rehydrates, which is roughly what the reviews below describe.

There is nothing in this formula that appears on the standard avoid lists, but I am not able to give medical advice. Show the ingredient list to your GP or midwife and follow what they tell you. For reference, the one product I ask you to set aside while pregnant or breastfeeding is the Enriching Vitamin A Serum.
