SPF for eyelids

So how do you protect eyelids from the sun? I haven't really thought about it before, but I'm getting old and my eyes are getting droopy.

Do you just use a sunscreen that's labelled for sensitive skin? Should you use a separate product like a cream shadow or foundation, just to physically block the sun? I don't like eye creams with SPF as I find that they all just end up as white flaky patches.

@DarlingNikita yeah I use them all, all over the face.
I then use my serums and eye creams and all the fancy stuff at night Grin

Clinique spf25 cityblock sheer is suitable for use around the eyes according to Clinique and some reviews. I use it every day. It is my desert island product.

I have a hat with 60spf in and I work outside, really helps keeping your eyes in the shade. I don’t always like wearing sunglasses and find the hat stopped me squinting.

I used to use Cityblock years ago but found it made my face shiny. I guess this sheer one doesn't though? I might try it again.
