Best eye cream

Can anymore recommend an eye cream for dark circles and the beginning of fine lines?

I'm 30 if that makes a difference.

Thanks

I’m enjoying the Nip&Fab retinol over night cream, at night (obviously) and the Ole Hendrickson Banana bright eye cream in the day. Brightens on it’s own and works really well under concealer.

Sleep, water, Botox - creams don't work

I don’t use them I think they can give you bags.

I pat moisturiser on my cheekbones under the eye instead.

I use Sunday Riley Autocorrect. It’s nice, expensive though at £60 (I paid via Klarna with cult beauty) but I don’t love it enough to pay £60 again

none. They don't work.

Wear sunglasses a lot so you don't squint.

Get plenty of sleep.

Eat healthy food.

Save up for fillers when you get to 50 if you need them then :)

Dark circles are your veins and so on under the skin. Nothing can lighten dark circles unless it's actual pigmentation which is caused by sun's rays.

Tear trough fillers for dark circles and bags.

and a good appropriate retinol for the fine lines around the area (the Verso one is highly regarded). But as PP said anything on the eye area itself can cause more harm than good.

You can take your moisturiser to your eyes.

Roc Correxion eyes is reputed to be very good.

Nadine Baggot rates the Olay pink coloured eye cream for dark circles. It's on offer on Amazon.

I like Kiehl's creamy avocado for the dry crepey bits I have, and also use Boots labs booster serum round my eyes and have definitely noticed a reduction in the appearance of the lines, but I'm not expecting miracles.

Another vote for Kiehl’s avocado, it’s really creamy & rich, & it does help with my bags a little bit goes a long way so it lasts ages.
