Best under eye cream? Crying bucket loads

19 replies

Hello, please recommend an effective cream that will help with the dark circles and battered skin look under my eyes. I've been crying relentlessly for months following (& leading up to) a bereavement
Thank you

I'm loving the revolution Pro miracle eye cream. I think it works miracles.

And when I was going through similar crying I found Charlotte Tillsbury concealer made me look less wrung out.

I am very sorry for your loss

I'm very sorry for your loss, OP.

Drinking lots of water is the best thing for puffy eyes, in my experience.

Teaspoon in fridge overnight then place on eyes in the morning

Dr Sebagh supreme eye serum

I don't have any recommendations for eye creams, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry you are at such a low time in your life, and hope things will improve for you. Sending hugs.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

I have hereditary dark under eye circles and the only cream that works for me is Garnier Vitamin C eye cream. I've had tear trough filler in the past but don't feel the need to get it again since I've been using this cream.

Thank you so much for the kind messages. Will investigate the links and yep, drinking water /applying cooling elements

Sorry to hear what you're going through. I find cold cucumber very soothing for puffy eyes. And Sali Hughes Ring Light eye cream from Superdrug.

Sunday Riley Autocorrect.

Sending hugs OP.

Charlotte tilbury do a nice undereye cream with a metal applicator- I keep it in the fridge. Very refreshing.

CountryCousin · 10/09/2023 08:20

I too am sorry you’ve been through such a hard time.

Suggestions:

Double or triple your fruit and vegetable intake. (And decrease alcohol if you can.)

Get as much fresh air as possible.

Consign all dark colours to the loft or a charity shop - order some brightly coloured clothes in silk, wool, velvet …

I find the application of a Versed Photos Please face mask right up to my eyes works wonders, temporarily.

stirling · 10/09/2023 23:19

Thank you again everyone. CountryCousin, I love these ideas

I'd like to add that when I got dark saggy under eyes after crying a lot over a long time they did go back to normal

Try to avoid alcohol as that really can dry out and darken your under eyes.

Keep hydrated with water and just keep your under eye moisturised. It doesn't have to be a specific eye cream.

Kiehls avocado eye cream is a miracle in a jar. It'd be my desert island one allowed thing!

crumpet · 11/09/2023 09:37

I also used some eye strips overnight which made a surprising difference
