Cold, gentle pressure and the right eye cream. A short, honest guide to the morning eye area.

Quick wins
- Cool it down: a chilled spoon or jade stone for one minute.
- Tap, do not rub: the skin around the eyes is delicate.
- Sleep with your head slightly raised.
- Drink water through the day.
Choose a cream made for the eye area
Face creams usually stop short of the eye area. An eye cream with caffeine helps the area look less puffy, while peptides, collagen, hyaluronic acid and ceramide keep it moisturized so fine lines look softer.
