I’ve struggled a lot with puffy under-eyes – my $14 drugstore buy has helped me a ton with fixing that and dark circles
AN affordable skincare product transformed one woman’s puffy under-eyes after years of trying to find something effective.
She raved that the bargain-friendly cream has a formula that works well on its own and under makeup.
Keisha (@keishadianagarcia) is steadily growing a following on TikTok, where she shares mini vlogs.
She showed how tired-looking her eyes were as she spoke about having “struggled” for years to find something that rejuvenates them.
She then began to apply a beauty product that she recommends to other people who have baggy under-eyes and dark circles.
“I came across the CeraVe Eye Repair cream and it has helped me a ton,” she said.
Keisha held up the skincare product as she revealed how hydrated and bright it made her under-eyes look.
She seemed in good spirits having been delighted by how quickly it improved the area.
“I use it in the morning and at night, it just takes a couple of dots,” she said.
“The best part is you can use it alone or under your makeup.”
Over 4,200 people liked the video and many people took to the comment section saying they were going to try it for themselves.
“I’ve had eye bags since I was a kid, thank you,” one person wrote.
“It helps my puffy eyes, dark circles, and under-eye wrinkles,” another said. “When I don’t use it I notice a big difference.”
“Ice your face in the morning and then that at night,” another suggested.
CeraVe Eye Repair cream is available for $14.06 on Amazon.
It has been formulated to make the eyes look more awake while reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.
Key ingredients include hyaluronic acid and niacinamide to “retain moisture” and “soothe” the skin.
What causes puffy under-eyes?
There are several causes for under-eye swelling including lack of sleep, overeating salt, crying, and allergies.
According to Healthline, the condition typically goes away without treatment but in some instances, it can be a sign of an infection or other health condition.
If the symptom worsens it’s best to seek medical advice.
The manufacturer recommends gently patting a pea-sized amount of the cream around the eye area and brow bone twice a day for optimal results.
They have said it’s suitable for all skin types, including those which are acne-prone.
Amazon customers have given it an impressive 4.3-star rating and it is currently the number one bestseller in the eye treatment creams category.
One reviewer gushed that it “absorbs really well” and another said they noticed an improvement in their under-eyes after using it consistently for a few months.
“I’ve tried many eye creams, including far more expensive ones than this but I always come back to this specific eye cream by CeraVe,” a third customer said.
“It spreads easily so no tugging on fragile skin near the eyes, never irritates my sensitive skin, and provides the moisture I want without interfering with my eye makeup.
“This is a dermatologist-recommended brand and for good reason. Highly recommend!”
