I have this really annoying habit that I have to work on. Despite the fact that I'm a very early riser of course (I speak, * wakes up at 6:30 a.m. 365 days a year – even on weekends *, kind of an early bird), I pretty much refuse to adjust my bedtime a few hours earlier to counter the impact of my early bird identity. I love staying awake after a long day watching my favorite shows on Hulu. I love reading 100-page pieces of a novel, and I also love playing around on my phone and doing whoever knows what. You know that feeling when you look at the watch, and it's an absolutely respectable 10pm. and then the next time you blink, it's almost 1am.?! Well, it happens to me all the time, and although I know that I'm better able to turn off my phone, light a candle, turn on my diffuser, and be the well-behaved beauty and wellness editor that I know of I should really be fighting for it. And yes, it definitely shows up on my face the next day. I have notoriously shady eyes under my eyes (see our A-List guide for celebrities on dark circles here), but my lack of sleep and the resulting addiction to coffee the next morning exacerbated the situation. Fortunately, my job gives me access to the latest and coolest eye creams and treatments that announce all kinds of miracles under the eyes – from banishing dark circles to removing puff, fine lines and wrinkles. Spoiler: Most fall flat. As in, that literally did nothing, somehow flat. However, during my three years as a beauty editor, I have accumulated a glorified possession of creams, gels, and balms that really do wonders for my dark rings. Regardless of whether your dark circles are caused by genetics, allergies, or not so great sleeping habits (me), these shadow-related eye creams can be helpful. Scroll on! I share the 15 best eye creams for dark circles that I've tried since working as a beauty editor.
This serum, which comes from the French press of L & # 39; Occitane (it was literally launched two days ago, but I got it for a test drive in time!) Stole my heart. It's the little sister of the brand's best-selling Overnight Reset Oil-in Serum ($ 59) (one unit is bought per minute!) And uses the same coveted moisturizing magic of the formula to fight against telltale symptoms of fatigue like dark circles , Swelling and expression lines. I also have to say that I love that you can literally see the 1,600 golden bubbles of the precious Immortelle essential oil in the breathtaking bottle. So stunning, isn't it ?!
Y & # 39; all, brands have really increased the frequency and cadence of eye cream launches as this is another formula for dark circles that ONLY hit my vanity. (And keep it everywhere.) Say goodbye to fine lines and wrinkles, dullness, uneven texture and dark circles thanks to this protective solution that improves the sensitive skin barrier around the eyes and also supports the natural microbiome of the skin.
iS Clinical is one of the top brands selected by the top beauticians in the industry, and this anti-aging eye cream is one of their preferred formulas. Not only is it incredibly creamy and moisturizing (but not sticky or slimy like some eye creams at all!), It is also of great help in the dark circle department – I will apply it before bed and then in the morning to finish my morning skin routine , My circles are (obviously) still there, but they are much less glaring. The key is in the mix of hyaluronic acid, peptides and antioxidants.
When I found out that makeup artists used this 111Skin formula to prepare the red carpet of celebrity skin, I was 88.5% on board. And after a few uses, when I noticed that my lower eyes looked less shady and much firmer, firmer and less tired all around, I stayed at a full 120%. It's categorically an eye cream, but it's formulated as a soothing, lightweight gel that anyone who's against heavy, tasty creams will absolutely love. There is also the whole eye-lifting effect, which is wonderful in and of itself.
If you feel a little tingling (it's worth it, I promise!), This eye cream has some bite. I mean it literally because one of the reasons why it contracts, consolidates and puffs quickly is due to the MVP ingredient: snake venom. This has been one of my favorite formulas for a few years, and I reach for it when my eyes are in a state of emergency.
The feather-light serum texture not only feels good under your eyes, but this popular eye cream also contains strategic brighteners to distribute purple circles that like to lurk. (You will get what I mean when you see the beautiful nacreous finish.) It also looks AMAZING under makeup and concealer. It's a 10/10 if you can take the splendor.
If you have a weakness for something beautiful, French, and downright effective when it comes to your investment in beauty products, you should definitely consider a By Terry eye contour cream. Thanks to the silver applicator, the application not only feels cool and luxurious, but also contains sensitive ingredients such as black rose, plant stem cells and vitamin E, so as not to ONLY reduce dark circles, but to bloat and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This is another one, which thanks to its light texture lies perfectly under your foundation and / or concealer.
One of my favorite eye creams of all time, probably the one I most recommend to friends as it is a little cheaper and has an immediate effect. A swipe over your eyes and the mica, caffeine and antioxidant-rich potion practically blurs the look of the ongoing darkness. I honestly think this is the absolute best Sunday Riley product. But that's just me.
Now I wouldn't include nearly $ 500 worth of eye cream if it didn't work against magic rings now, would I? The sticker shock may be a bit nerve-wracking, but this is probably THE most luxurious option for dark circles on the market. If you agree with the use, the combination of La Prairie's legendary encapsulated caviar pearls and an innovative gel-cream emulsion is probably as effective as an expensive office treatment. The effect is a visual elevation of the eyebrow and eyebrow area, less swelling, lines, shadows, you get the idea.
If you have dark rings, the yellow hue of this lightening elixir can definitely help with this. It is rich in vitamin C, works against aging and makes your concealer and foundation even smoother. Wins all around!
Try the new GlamGlow formula for glowing skin and eyes that reflect a full ten hours of sleep. It has glowing spheres to lighten dullness and darkness, caffeine for tightening and lifting, hyaluronic acid for filling and moisturizing and last but not least peptides to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Technically speaking, this eraser is a balm and not a cream, but please take it with you – it works! Like, so, so good. You know these mornings when you wake up for some reason and feel like you've been hit by a freight train? Sweeping this cooling stick, which is enriched with aloe and caffeine, around your eye area feels almost as good as a deep tissue marathon after Barry & # 39; s Bootcamp. (Oh, and there's also a radiant version of Rose Glow, FYI!)
Did you know that Hailey Bieber (and a host of other celebrities) is a big fan of this brand? I don't know if Miss HB tried this SkinMedica lightening eye cream, but if not, I personally recommend that she get involved. It is packed with great ingredients like phenylethylresorcinol (which supports melanin balance and corrects hyperpigmentation), a hyaluronic acid mixture for hydration, marine extracts to support a healthy skin barrier, and all the other good substances for blue and purple skin. Eyes such as caffeine, Persian silk tree extract and St. John's wort support the vascular and lymph function and ensure a firmer, firmer result.
My 73-year-old mother and I all agree – this affordable eye cream from the clean skin care brand Versed is really spectacular. I immediately noticed how it reduced the weight of my dark rings after the flight when I was at home recently, and my mother agreed that it would reduce her train, wrinkles, etc.
This eye cream is not actually advertised as an eye cream for dark circles. That said, it's one of the deepest moisturizing formulas I've ever tested. Because of this insane moisture, I find that my lower eyes look less dried and skeletal and look lighter, wetter and plumper. It is a light, very soothing formula that provides a 26-hour hydration period. It is one that you have to throw in your basket the next time you walk through the aisles of Sephora.
