| So what do you like best, an eye cream or gel? |

| To me this largely depends on the skin around the eyes. If it's dry then cream is best, if you need less moisturisation then gel is good. |

| I used gels before and liked them but now that I've started to develop 'bags' I've stwitched to creams and find them much better. Gels are great for young skins |

I  gel. I have oily eyelids (part of my oily t-zone) and I don't have dark circles or wrinkles (for now) so the gel is more for preventative measures going forward. 
Mabsy recommended I give Orlane B21 Oligo Cooling Balm Eye Contour a try and now I'm hooked. 
I tried the Cellcosmet sample sent over from EDS with my last order, but it was too rich for me.  It made the area under my eyes oilier. I do plan to use it in the future if my eyelids become dry. |

I love creams. Its pretty consistent with what others have said. I have "mature" dry skin so my skin just drinks up rich creamy moisturizers. I know its good when my eyelids still feel slightly moist in the morning.  |

Ditto on the eye cream.
Gels tend to get sticky on me and make my crows feet more pronounced.

| When I first started using eye products, I used gel in the morning and cream in the evening but I didn't find the gel moisturising enough so I started using eye creams in the morning as well. Things have changed a lot since. My skin has become drier since I've started using vit c serums and AHA so I'm now using richer eye creams with spf in the morning. |
