I want to find an eye cream with sunscreen, does anybody has any recommendation? I note that both DDF and Murad has one, has anyone tried?

Thanks!

Yes, I have both the DDF Protectove and the Murad Essential C one. I *REALLY* like the Murad as do a number of people on this forum. It's a fab SPF eye cream.

I'm sure there are some reviews of both products (I recall reading some and also writing some). Just do a search (upper right hand side) and see what you come up with.

I use La Prairie Smart Eye SPF15 on top of Shiseido Benefiance. Also, I take my vit c serum all they way up and under my eyes and this is supposed to help too.

DERMALOGICA Total Eye Care SPF 15, You have to try it, I think it's the best thing, i've been using it for 3 years and still can't get enough of it, your eye looks brighter as soon at you apply it on, the natural pinky color makes your eyes glow. Wink

I just recently got a sample of La Prairie's Caviar Luxe Cream (or something like that). I don't know the US$RRP but it sells in Australia for $580 for a 50mL jar. I must say that, while it smelled absolutely lovely, I wasn't a big fan of it at all. It feels like it's packed with silicones - makes your face ultra smooth. Not a bad thing every so often, but not what I want from a night cream (which is what I was planning to use it as).

I have used up the full size of their Caviar Eye Complex (it was ok, nothing too spectacular - at least not in my case) and also their Cellular Hydrating Serum. The hydrating serum was lovely!

I have only used the Dermalogica one & it irritated my eyes badly! Speak to the hand I know Clinique has an eye cream with SPF but I'm not sure if it's the advanced stop signs or something else Question I have also heard the Murad one is quite good.

I use Clarins Wrinkle Control SPF 30 for the Eye Contour. I love it for the sun protection and the fact that it doesn't migrate into my eyes, but I use it on top of an eye wrinkle treatment as I don't think it's anything more than a sunscreen.

Neutrogena Healthy Defense Eye Cream SPF 30 is excellent. It uses a physical sunscreen which I much prefer in the eye area - not irritating, it is photostable and give broadspectrum UVA/UVB protection.

The reason I use a seperate sunscreen is because I have had a difficult time finding one that I can use on both my face and eye area as they all usually end up migrating into my eyes during the day making them sting and water. The reason I'm guessing is because a face/body lotion is designed to be spread out (easily) over a sizable area of skin, therefore it will have a tendency to "migrate" because of it's composition, versus a cream designed for the eye area which is designed to be patted on and then to stay put where it lands (for the most part). If migration wasn't a problem for me, I'd be happy to use only one.

It's so nice to have the option of an eye cream with sunscreen these days. Smile I remember how thrilled I was when Clinique came out with theirs! Only thing is I haven't found one w/ sunscreen that's also done enough for my fine lines, so I like using a good, heavier eye cream/eye area sunscreen combo best. (I must admit, the Murad one does sound kind of tempting tho'! Razz )

lil miss - I just saw an ad about a new eyecream from Shiseido with SPF 32 PA+++.

I haven't tried it though, so I cannot give a personal testimonial. I do like Shiseido's other sunscreen products, though.
