Eyelids! I think I'd benefit from some cream or something.

Hello! I'm on top of my skincare regime but my eye area always looks pink/red. Not sore really, just red, thin and wrinkly. Can I get some cream to help. It's my actual eyelids and the area around them up to just under my brow bone.

Same issue with me OP at least we aren't alone .
I've also got very sensitive eyes that detest any type of perfume in face creams.

Yes! Also some concealer. So I have to be very careful when I try and blend my eyes in with the rest of my face!

Hopefully the knowledgeable Woman on here will be able to help us. 😁

Lansinoh lanolin nipple cream is good for this if you don't need to put makeup on. It's very hydrating and comfy.

Lansinoh is great but pure grease (sheep wool fat, right?) it will be soothing but also be a layer of grease

I find REN is very good for gentle eye creams/gels

DR Haushka eye cream is even beter. My 87yr old dad gets psoriasis and allergies and eczema, and he uses my (now also his) Hauschka eye cream to soothe itchy red eye lids

Not too greasy either. It's in a little white and orange tube. Not cheap, sadly

I've been using

www.boots.com/cerave-moisturising-lotion-236ml-10246703

It's not even for the face specifically but it seems to help.

At night, if I Denver I have been using a tiny bit of Vaseline.

But my skin is quite dry.

After a year of out of the blue on and off eye eczema/blepharitis (never quite worked out which) I've got on top of it with twice daily Blephasol lotion and, thanks to another thread on MN, discovered a uk brand called Pai who have an amazing eye cream called feather canyon which is slowly but surely making my eye skin look and feel so much better

They do free video consultations and 90 day money back guarantee too

Meant to say I've gone about 7 weeks symptom free now (fingers crossed) which is the longest time in over a year
