How do I know what type of eye creams to use? I haven’t used one in a couple months and was using the ordinary caffeine solution for a little while but didn’t care much for it.. I have attached photos of my under eye (feel free to add in takes on the skin you can see too hehe pls don’t be harsh)

p.s I know there is some make up on my eye still and that could be an issue but I’m in mid face wash

@Chelseyybryantt, so eye creams to me are these little pleasures I enjoy using, but know that the benefits are gradual and modest when it comes to things like wrinkles and major depuffing (I have perma-bags/malar bags).  That being said, you want to always start with something that is moisturizing, and depending on your concerns.  Like, are you looking for something for dryness, under eye circles, depuffing, etc?

That eye serum is great, The Ordinary Caffeine 5% + EGCG Brightening Eye Serum 1 oz/ 30 mL , when it comes to depuffing.  I found it started to dry my undereye out a bit, so I would mix in a thick eye cream with it.

I also like eye masks, alongside my two favorite I creams, I love eye masks.  My fave are Peter Thomas Roth 24K Gold Pure Luxury Lift & Firm Hydra-Gel Eye Patches 30 pairs - 60 patches SEPHORA COLLECTION Clean Eye Mask Caffeine .  I keep my eye masks in the fridge, which I say over and over.  It feels nice and the cold does actually help with de-puffing

I like my eye creams on the thicker side, so here are my faves:

belif Moisturizing Eye Bomb with Squalane 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Firming Eye Cream with Peptides 0.67 oz/ 20 mL

First Aid Beauty Eye Duty Niacinamide Brightening Eye Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL 

Tatcha The Silk Peony Melting Eye Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL 

If you like a different consistency, there are also some eye gels, but I haven't tried these personally

Glow Recipe Guava Vitamin C Bright-Eye Gel Cream 0.5 oz / 15 mL

This is really great info, @danielledanielle !  Have you tried innisfree Green Tea Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Eye Cream 1.01 oz / 30 mL .  I bought it at the end of last year, but haven't tried it yet.  My tube of The INKEY List Caffeine De-puffing + Dark Circle Eye Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL  is almost empty.  (This is a nice moisturizer, which is all I really need, so I can't speak to it's other benefits.)

Awww, thanks.  There's just something about eye creams, so I;m always on the look out (pun intended).

Okaaay @Titian06 ,  the Innisfree Eye Cream is new to me, but the ingredients make it sound like a winner.   The Inkey eye cream, I have also heard of, but haven't tried.
