Best for Eye Bags: Fresh Black Tea Age-Delay Eye Concentrate
This rich cream is a dream if you’re prone to dryness in your under-eye area. Your skin will drink up its antioxidants to combat fine lines and texture, puffiness, and dark circles. The heavy-duty formula feels ultra-nourishing and creamy on the skin, making this a great nighttime pick.
What reviewers say: “This eye cream is a game changer! I’ve used some of the most expensive eye cream out there and this blows them out of the water. You almost see a change the next day. I put a little dab on my hand while I was at the store and it left that spot smooth and tight for the rest of the day,” wrote one reviewer.
Best for Dark Circles: SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Eye Complex
“SkinCeuticals has been around a long time; they have a lot of research behind their products,” says Tara Rao, M.D., dermatologist at Schweiger Dermatology Group. This eye cream has a good mix of everything needed to diminish fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circles: antioxidants, peptides, and sunscreen.
What an editor says: “This eye cream comes in a thick, creamy, balm-like texture, but I’m amazed at how quickly and easily it melts into my skin as soon as I apply it—it feels so lightweight and not oily at all,” says Jeon. “After using it for only a few weeks, I’m not sure about its ability to smooth out fine lines, but I do think it has helped make my under-eye area and dark circles look slightly brighter.”
