Filorga Optim-Eyes Contour des Yeux, €49, Marks and Spencer

Dark circles and under-eye bags are targeted by this light cream, which pumps hygienically out of a light-resistant bottle. The makers promise that peptides will help with circulation and reduce puffiness, while a complex of ingredients works on pigment under the eyes. It’s a light cream that absorbs easily, and offers discernible hydration. “This skin is increasingly brittle-looking, but this cream kept me from looking like I’d had a fight with my pillow during the night,” said one panellist.
