The skin around our eyes is far more delicate than the rest of our face, so should be treated with more care – our best under-eye creams are specifically designed to target the look of puffy eyes, dark circles and other skin concerns in a gentle yet effective way.

Introduce an eye cream or eye serum in your early 20s to help prevent and diminish the look of first signs of eye ageing, such as crow’s feet or “eye bags”. If you start using an eye cream for under-eye wrinkles early on, it can work to prevent signs of ageing that may not be showing yet. It also helps to provide the eye area with hydration which can help to create a great base for make-up such as concealer.

Apply your eye serum or eye cream delicately to the under-eye area with a ring finger, massaging gently into the skin. For a refreshing effect on puffy eyes, choose Advanced Night Repair Eye Concentrate Matrix, which comes with a cooling applicator.

Typically apply your lighter or thinner skincare formulas first. This tends to be your under-eye cream first and then moisturiser afterwards.

If you're looking for an eye cream for dark circles, choose a formula that is designed to help brighten the look of the under-eye area and targets the look of fatigue. Our best under-eye cream for dark circles is Advanced Night Repair Eye Supercharged Gel-Creme. This award-winning eye cream also helps improve the look of puffy eyes and “eye bags.”

If you’d like to target signs of ageing specifically, our best under-eye cream is Advanced Night Repair Eye Concentrate Matrix. This anti-ageing under-eye cream improves the look of crow’s feet, wrinkles under eyes and fine lines.
