Eye Cream

This depends on one’s individual skin type, history of sun damage, family history of dark under eye circles, among other factors. In general, it is recommended to start using an anti-wrinkle eye cream in your 20s or 30s. Consult your dermatologist to determine the right time for you to start using an eye cream.

In general, less is more when it comes to an eye cream. Eye creams are typically thick and concentrated and a pea-sized amount for both eyes is all you need. Apply from the inner corner of the eye area outwards. Be careful to avoid contact with the eye itself as this may cause eye irritation and watery eyes.

If an eye cream is thicker in texture than your moisturizer, we recommend applying it after. If it is thinner than your face moisturizer, we recommend applying it before.

Refer to the product packaging to determine how many times a day you should apply your eye cream. Generally, it is recommended to apply an eye cream in the morning and evening after cleansing your face. However, certain eye creams containing active ingredients, such as retinol, should only be used once a daily in the evening.

For dry skin around the eye area, we recommend the Toleriane Ultra Eye Cream and Hydraphase Intense Hyaluronic Acid Eye Cream. These hydrating formulas soothe skin and provide long-lasting hydration.

Tested on allergy-prone skin, the Toleriane Ultra Eye Cream helps restore skin’s natural protective moisture barrier around the eyes and on the eyelids.
