The Ultimate Guide to finding the right Eye Cream!
Happy Sunday Friends!
The most asked skincare question I always get has to do with eye creams!
"Which ones should I use?" "What's your favourite" "When did you start using an eye cream?"
It's one of my favourite topics because aside from cleansing, it's the step I'm most obsessed with! When I first started working in the industry I was 20 years old, working for Shiseido and knew absolutely nothing about skincare or make up, it was just a position I was asked to fill temporarily that turned into two years lol (and counting to 12 years in this industry) but that's a whole other story! I'm mentioning this because I had a client that was in her late 60's going on 40. I was always amazed by her skin's glow and asked her what her secret was. She said, 'I'm obsessed with eye creams and have been using them since I was 18'. So, here I am at 20 feeling like I'm 2 years behind and needed to get on the eye cream train asap!
Back to the present time, 12 years later (which is weird because I swear I'm still 25) I am still obsessed with eye creams, and have yet to see a fine line! (BRB, need to go knock on some wood now incase I've just jinxed myself lol)
Since I always get asked about this, I thought to create a chart based on the eye cream products I've used and still use and outlining the difference to help find that best product for you!
Here we go! Below are 20 eye creams I've used and you can follow along to see which concerns each eye cream targets to help navigate the best one! These opinions are based on my own personal use of these products currently or over the past years.
The categories include hydration, fine lines, wrinkles, firm/elasticity, dark circles, puffiness, dullness/texture, clean beauty, a cream or gel formula, skin type and if the product has clinically tested results.
The categories checked off for all, are hydration and suitable for all skin types. It then takes a closer look into the concerns and you can follow along to see which one is best for you!
Eye creams are formulated differently and specifically for the thinner and more delicate skin around the eye, they tend to be thicker in consistency compared to face creams as well. They include more oil than a facial cream would and include more active ingredients aimed at the concerns we have around our eyes. When commonly asked why can't we just use our facial creams around the eyes, this is why!
To summarize here are the more specific categories and link to each item!

I hope this guide helps navigate a little more in the world of eye creams. If you have an eye cream you swear by, I'd love to know!
Thanks for stopping by!

There is something appealing about discovering cultural connections through everyday stories, especially when the focus stays on the details people might otherwise overlook. An ordinary tradition can show how people remember and share a sense of place. I would connect Asianrichlist with cultural storytelling ideas through an ordinary example rather than a broad claim. I can imagine different responses depending on the situation, which makes the question more interesting. How would you invite different people to describe what the same tradition means to them?
A discussion of connecting food with farming and local production seems more useful when it connects an idea with something easy to picture. The work behind a familiar ingredient can be easy to overlook once it reaches a shop. For Ashclystfarmdairy, I would use local food production as a starting point for a closer discussion of the subject. The smaller details are what I would want to return to, especially when an explanation feels too broad. What part of the journey from producer to kitchen would you most like to understand?
I like thinking about exploring the details that shape a screen story through small observations rather than trying to reach a conclusion immediately. The order of two scenes can change what a viewer notices about a character. That thought gives me a starting point for exploring film storytelling ideas in connection with Aserbianfilm. It leaves me curious about the steps between understanding an idea and putting it into practice. Which small details make you want to revisit a scene after the story ends?
The idea of enjoying the small details of cafe culture gives me a reason to slow down and consider the details. The pace and atmosphere of a place can matter as much as what is in the cup. It is the kind of question I would keep in mind when thinking about Archibalds Coffee and cafe culture and coffee. I can imagine different responses depending on the situation, which makes the question more interesting. Which small details make you want to sit for a little longer?
I find finding the character of a local meeting place easier to approach when there is a familiar situation to start from. An ordinary conversation can become part of the reason people remember a place. That practical perspective helps me frame local pub culture as a theme for Abbeyinnderby. I would be interested in an example that shows how the idea works in an ordinary situation. What makes a local meeting spot feel welcoming to a first-time visitor?
