NewBeauty Awards: Eye Creams

THE BEST EYE CREAM FOR FINE LINES

The plant-based retinol alternative bakuchiol in silky Alpyn Beauty PlantGenius Line-Filling Eye Balm ($62) helps conquer fine lines while peptides strengthen the delicate skin around the eyes.

THE BEST EYE CREAM FOR UNDER-EYE BAGS

It’s utterly rich and contains 47 high-performing botanicals, but what makes Tata Harper Boosted Contouring Eye Balm ($215) a winner is its ability to address pretty much any and every around-the-eye concern we have.

THE BEST EYE CREAM FOR DARK CIRCLES

Whether you’re a workaholic, sleep-deprived mom (or dad) or dark circles just “run in your family,” consider DefenAge 3D Eye Radiance Cream ($127) eight blissful hours of shut-eye in a bottle.

THE BEST EYE CREAM FOR PUFFINESS

Puffy eyes have nothing on this cooling bioClarity Eye Will Chill ($25) serum, which soothes with green tea and a medley of invigorating vitamins. Pro tip: Keep it in the fridge for extra cooling action.

THE BEST RETINOL EYE CREAM

Don’t be fooled by the tiny tube: Dermatologist-recommended RoC Retinol Correxion Eye Cream ($23) is a heavy-hitting formula designed to minimize everything from crow’s-feet to dark circles, and that it does.
