Hi, im starting to notice that my eyes need some serious loving. They are so dry and some wrinkles are noticable. I would love some good recommendations.

I like the Consult Beaute Copperum 29 on my lids.  It also ehances lash growth.  Under the eye, I bring my facial serums all the way up as far as I can w/o getting them near the eye.  Lastly, I use Mad Hippie Eye Cream.  You can check out the ingredients on the Mad Hippie website and other places - Amazon, Vitacost, iHerb, etc.  Be sure to shop around for the best price.

Re: Best Eye cream suggestions

I’ve just started using the Cetaphil Hydrating eye cream and like it. I do use all my other skin care under my eyes, including retinoid at night, CoQ 10, vitamin C serums in the morning, but I like extra moisture at night. It’s new this year and seems to be getting pretty good reviews.

Re: Best Eye cream suggestions

I'm going to suggest this RoC product for two main reasons. First, it contains retinol which is proven to give long-term results. Secondly, the price. This product has been around a very long time and has been an on-going highly rated eye cream. Most any where you look, the reviews are very good. Had I not gone to using Retin-A, I would probably be still using this RoC eye cream.

@mintedrose  My suggestion is Marula oil.  Just apply it all over your face.  Place a drop in hands, rub together and press on especially under eyes.

Re: Best Eye cream suggestions

@mintedroseIt is trial & error. I have used most of these mentioned & they didn't give me the moisture that I need in my eye area.

The one that works best for me is Acure Radically Rejuvenating Eye Cream (It's not really all that radical or rejuvenating, but it is moisturizing.). You get 1oz instead of .5oz that you usually get in an eye cream.

It's on sale at Swanson for $13.61. I just bought a new tube at Target for $16.99.

You may also want to check your face wash. If my eye area suddenly looks dry & old I have found that switching face wash can help.

Even face wash that is listed for dry or sensitve skin can be drying to me & it shows up first in my eye area.

May I also suggest you add in some eye patches for an extra boost. I love the Peter Thomas Roth brand - the water drench or gold ones are great. They aren't cheap but really make an immediate difference. I keep them in the fridge and pop a pair one a few times a week in the morning - takes about 15 mins and perks the under eye area right up. 

 

I also like Kiehl's eye cream- the avocado is my favorite.

Philosophy Hope In A Tube (eye and lip) is what works for me.

I just recommended this on another thread about eyes.  Clinique "All About Eyes".  I swear by this stuff!

Re: Best Eye cream suggestions

@mintedroseI don't use a separate eye cream. I agree with @Katcat1 that marula oil is a good choice for dry undereyes. One of my face creams that work well under eyes  is Josie Maran argan face butter. Sometimes a mix of Marula oil & Rosehip oil which has vit.A (a natural form of retinol) works well also. At night I use the face butter topped with Argan oil which is excellent for dry lined undereyes. I have heard but haven't tryed & have no need for but gets good reviews is CeraVe eye cream. Good Luck on your quest!
