Pinoys Share The Most *Effective* Eye Creams They’ve Tried

As cliché as it sounds, the eyes really are the windows to the soul. People can look into them and have an idea of what you’re thinking or how you’re feeling. So when your peepers appear puffy, dark, wrinkly, or dry, others may assume you’re tired or sad (even when you’re not).

While the usual techniques to look fresh and awake include applying blush and having lush lashes, it’s important to take care of the skin around your eyes as well. That said, we asked a few people about their tried-and-tested eye creams and they shared why these are worth giving a try.

Nuxe White Ultimate Glow Illuminating Anti-Dark Circle Eye Contour Cream

“This Nuxe eye cream melts right into the sensitive skin around my eyes, and instantly reduces puffiness or signs of fatigue. It also does a pretty decent job of illuminating, despite my undereye area being naturally dark. It's surprisingly moisturizing despite being so lightweight, and it works well under makeup, too. The name’s quite a mouthful but it actually does what it claims to do.

Shiseido Vital Perfection Uplifting and Firming Eye Cream

“The skin around my eyes is very sensitive and gets dry easily, so I can’t just use any eye cream. This one by Shiseido doesn’t irritate my eyes and it even got rid of dry patches that I’ve been dealing with. I also love how it’s firming since I’ve recently been getting into and educating myself on anti-aging products!” - Chab

The INKEY List Retinol Eye Cream

“I started looking for an eye cream with retinol after realizing that signs of aging around the eyes (as well as on the hands, but that’s a different story!) are the most obvious. I chose this one from The INKEY List because it’s more affordable compared to others, and so far so good! I sometimes apply it on pimples too (as retinol can also be used to treat acne). This eye cream also features a gentle formula that doesn’t cause any irritation.” - Chelsea
