Eye creams are our best friend when it comes to treatment of the fine lines and wrinkles around our eye area, a common sign of loss of elasticity in our skin. Generally formulated with active ingredients that are concentrated but yet gentle for the delicate areas around our eyes, eye creams are helpful to reduce eye puffiness, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and lighten the darkened areas around our eyes.

Some of our favourite ingredients in eye cream for dark circles include tranexamic acid, propolis extract and retinol. For puffiness, we recommend using a hydrogel mask around the under eye area for quick relief.

There are a few common questions that often arise around this topic, such as "Are eye creams necessary" and "Do eye creams really work"? While it may sound rather gimmicky, the reason to use an eye cream really depends on your age, skin condition and what you are looking to treat. Find out if eye creams are necessary for you from Skin Deep with Oshen.
