Best with SPF: Supergoop! Bright-Eyed 100% Mineral Eye Cream SPF 40

What reviewers say: “I have always avoided sunscreen under eyes until now. Also, there is a little bit of tint, so it is perfect for a day when you want to go a little natural, or for daytime outdoor fun that calls for a less made up look,” wrote one customer. “I can wear less makeup under my eyes now. Fewer layers, less time.”

What an editor says: “I rely on this eye cream to help me look more awake first thing in the morning. It instantly helps with dark circles and puffiness, and I love that the ingredients target wrinkles over time,” says Prevention’s senior commerce editor, Christie Calucchia. Early also says: “I have very sensitive, fair skin. After using the product daily for two weeks, I can’t say I noticed any change in fine lines, but I can say that the product felt moisturizing, did offer some de-puffing during a time of high seasonal allergies, and left my skin feeling soft.”
