5 OF THE BEST

EYE CREAMS

Alex Steinherr for Primark, Sleep Spa Every Night Eye Mask

£4, Primark LIGHTWEIGHT cream that hydrates and tightens the eye area, at a bargain price.

Alpha H Liquid Gold Firming Eye Cream

(£52, cultbeauty.co.uk) THIS has peptides to firm skin, exfoliating acids to smooth its surface, and ingredients to relax lines, reduce puffiness, and brighten dark circles. All this while smoothing and hydrating the skin, too. Worth a try.

Olay Pro-Retinol Eye Cream

(£29.99, boots.com). OLAY’S latest eye cream contains retinyl propionate, which is gentler than retinol but strong enough to show results on entrenched wrinkles within four weeks.

SkinCeuticals Mineral Eye UV Defense SPF 30

(£28, skinceuticals. co.uk) PARTICULARLY good for sensitive eyes which find other SPF eye creams hard to tolerate.

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Supercharged Complex

(£45, esteelauder.co.uk) DESIGNED to improve all parts of eye ageing, from dark circles to puffiness and dehydration.
