Not everyone needs eye creams or serums, but if you use them, here are better brands. Use them very gently around (but not near) to your eyes – you only have one pair!
This organic eye serum is sold in a glass jar with metal lid. It works to smooth and firm the area around the eyes, by plumping up delicate skin. Infused with organic seaweed, this is naturally rich in skin-loving vitamins and minerals, and leaves you with smoother firmer skin.
Avoid essential oils for pregnancy/nursing and affected medical conditions. Avoid shea butter for latex allergies. Keep away from pets, due to essential oils, zinc etc.
Eye Cream (with upcycled coffee grounds)
Upcircle Eye Cream is sold in a glass jar with metal lid, packed in a cardboard box. It’s made with coffee grounds that are upcycled from London shops. It also contains hydrating vegan hyaluronic acid (some versions are from roosters). And anti-inflammatory maple bark extract (a by-product of the wood industry).
Designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines, it also contains refreshing cucumber. Just apply a small amount around the contour of your eye, morning and night. Made from 99% natural ingredients.
A Chrome Tool for Applying Eye Cream
This metal eye roller is made from chrome, and sold in a cardboard box. It’s ideal for applying eye cream and reducing puffiness, as it aids lymphatic drainage and boosts circulation.
It also doubles as a useful spatula for scooping out product (so you use it, rather than getting it under your fingernails). It can be stored in the fridge for extra cooling.
