Puffiness Eye Repair Cream – De-Puffing & Dark Circle Care

A properly rich cream for the one part of your face where thin, light products don't do enough. The skin around your eyes has almost no oil glands of its own, which is why it creases first and why a lightweight gel often isn't the answer.

What it's for

• Morning puffiness — the main reason people buy this
• The look of dark circles caused by fluid and fatigue rather than pigment
• Dryness and fine creasing under the eye, especially if concealer has started to sit in lines
• Screen-tired eyes at the end of a long day

How to use it

1. A grain-of-rice amount for both eyes. Genuinely that little — more will migrate and sting
2. Warm it between your ring fingers first
3. Tap it along the orbital bone, not the eyelid. Don't rub or drag
4. Morning and night. Give it two minutes to sink in before concealer

Use it with the gold roller or the electric eye massager and it absorbs better — and you avoid dragging at the thinnest skin on your face with a fingertip.

Honest about dark circles

This is worth understanding before you buy any eye cream. Dark circles come in three kinds. Fluid and fatigue — this helps, visibly. Pigmentation — a vitamin C serum is a better bet, over months. The natural hollow of your eye socket casting a shadow — no cream on earth changes bone structure, and anything claiming otherwise is selling you a story.

Most people have some combination. Expect improvement in how awake you look rather than a transformation.

Questions we get asked

Will it sting? Not if you keep it on the bone rather than the lid. Applying too much is the usual cause.

Can I use it on my whole face? You can — it's just a rich moisturiser. It's an expensive way to do it.

Does it work under makeup? Yes, but let it absorb for two minutes first or your concealer will slide.

How long will it last? At the correct amount, around three months.

Fragranced? Lightly. If you're very reactive around the eyes, patch test on your jaw first.
