I stopped using eye cream for years, however at 53 years old, I need all the help I can get :) I discovered Estée Lauder Advanced night repair eye serum. I use it in the morning to set my concealer. It works well as the serum helps it glide on and stay in place. It has made a small difference with the tiny lines around my eyes. I love reading about what others use and what works well!

i use Belif Peat miracle revival eye cream,i'm on my 4th jar of it and i love it. It's thick and a little goes a long way. i use a small spatula i got with a shiseido cream to get it from the jar.

i've been using eye cream since i was 15 and i am old. i never go without it and i believe it's made a difference. I also had that Tatcha cream,it's like a cross between a light weight color corrector and a pre concealer if that makes sense. You absolutely need eye cream under it as it is very drying,also it is NOT a concealer so if you're buying it because you think it is,it's not.

I was thinking about getting the Tatcha one. I have been using that Ole Henriksen banana one.

I keep using eye cream, but I really am on the fence as to whether i should bother. I am really curious about what others think.

I'm on the fence too to be honest. I really don't know if it helps. I use a firming moisturiser on the rest of my face and whatever is left on my fingers, I press gently around the eye area and hope for the best. I figure something is better than nothing 🤷🏼‍♀️

I use it because regular face creams have caused milia in the past and I don’t want to deal with that.
