I'm desperate here; my undereye area is drying up, and I desperately need something which provides moisture and nourishment to my parched skin, without being just another silicone bomb, like many heavier creams, and also without containing lots of alcohol, like many natural brands tend to.
Any suggestions? I'm mid 30s, and my skin is otherwise also dry and sensitive. To fight dryness is my main skin concern.  |

Lucky you! That's one of the silicone bombs that just make my skin drier in the long run.  |

I once used  Keihl's Avocado eye cream (because Robin McGraw said that it was awesome & didn't migrate). I must admit that I did like it - migrated a little though, as any would . I am embarrassed that I fell for that. If your eyes get to be 57 with alot of sagging (I need an out of the question ($$$) eye job ) OF COURSE any product will migrate. Duh. That said, though, I found it absorbed well, didn't clog or cause any milia and am actually thinking of re-ordering it. I am first trying the Easy Eye Solutions products though. And Gernetic's Eye Gel. I am way too impatient because I think that time is a-wasting! However, that said, I would recommend Kiehl's! Even over Cellcosmet. |

| Eucerin CoQ10 Sensitive cream gets a lot of praise on MUF. I bought it to use as an eye cream. Thick, rich, antioxidants. I don't believe eye creams in general do very much other than moisturize. |

| The original Hauschka eye balm in the pot, not the tube. Really nice, although somewhat thick. Do NOT use a ton at once. I love it and I frequently break the Hauschka rule about nothing at night and pat it around my eyes just a little before I go to bed. I did NOT, however, like the daily revitalizing eye cream. Trying to use it up, but it's going to last forever. |

I LOVE Earth Science's Azulene Eye cream. It keeps my skin moisturized all day long underneath my eyes, and keep the fine lines at bay. Plus, it is inexpensive. It's excellent.
I use another cream for toning and actives, but I layer the azulene in the morning over my moisturizer and it works all day long. It's very hydrating and protective.

| I have extremely dry/sensitive skin and one product that I always go back to is La Mer. I always have a jar on hand for when my skin gets out of wack from trying too many products that end up being drying and irritating to my ultra sensitive skin. It is the most moisturizing cream that can be used on the face and all around the eye area. It is soothing to sensitive skin and dry skin just drinks it up and glows. |

| Laura Mercier Flawless Skin Eye Serum did wonders for my eye area. They recommend using their eye cream over it, but that's all I use in the morning and I get hydration all day. I also use tretinoin weekly or bi-weekly. |

AVON Anew eye renewal serum, the best water binding eye products I ever used. And most important, it's not expensive at all.
Every one can afford it.
It can keep my ultra dry eye zone moisturizing whole day long. |

| hi, have you heard ZELENS' Intensive Triple Action Eye Cream? I was suggested by the staff in Spacenk UK. It costs around £93. I have used for one week. It is really rich. Also Revive eye mask will help. |

| I didn't want to start another thread because it's nearly the same question, but which is more moisturizing, the Valmont L'elixir for eyes or the Cellcosmet one? Thanks ladies. |

i tried shiseido benefiance a while ago, it was richer than your average cream.
Maybe think about using oil, like making up an eye oil mix, e.g. camellia with a 5% blend of rosehip oil and maybe rose essential oil? Just oil (I use bio-oil or camellia oil) also works well for me.. |

| I find that using a bit of lactic acid followed by jojoba oil helps keep my eye area plump and moisturized. |

I use kiehl's creamy eye treatment with Avocado and it is really keep my eyes moisturized.
In addition, you can use eye serum before eye cream. |

May Philosophy Hope In a Tube would help you, since this eye cream is the most moisture one that I have ever used.
My eyes are very dry in winter, but after using this eye cream at night, I find my eyes would still be moisture in the next morning. |

| I recommend the Bionic Eye Cream of Neostrata as it can reduce puffiness & contains highly mositurizing ingredients. |

Hi Ximing,
How is the Revive Eye Mask working for you? I'm looking for a moisturizing eye mask and came across this product with not too many reviews. I'd appreciate it if you can share with us your experience. TIA!

Second this. With dry skin, especially around the eyes, this cream really has no rivals. |

I'd also now highly recommend Kiehls Imperiale Repairateur Moisturizing Eye Balm, its sooooo moisturising, my eyes look really fresh after I use it, which is saying something these days :S
You can only really use it at night, as it has a vaseline like consistency (but doesnt contain vaseline), but I saw an amazing difference from the first time I used it. It just makes your eyes look fresher..
Its the only thing I make sure I put on at night as well, even if I can't be bothered to take my makeup off, I'll just use a cleansing wipe around my eyes, apply this balm then hit the sack! |

| You should definitely try Valmonts Eye & Mouth Contour Cream. I had a couple of samples of this and every time I use it, it deeply nourishes my eye area and always looks so smooth the next morning when I wake up. I know its pricey but perhaps try a sample first? |

| I had this same problem recently and found Dream Products. It was highly recommended on MUA You can google The Dream Products to find the e-mail address & write Denise. Sorry I can't put in the link (I'm new) She will send you a catalog. Her eye cream samples are generous and I love Eye Dream Lift. She will also customize your formula if necessary. Inexpensive! |
