Prior to my decision to switch to Olay, I was using different eye creams from different price points with different (with some overlapping) claims. Up until recently, I hadn't been too particular about my under eye issues, so I guess you could say my decisions on this front were pretty scattershot. How I ended up being more deliberate was really due to consultation with skin specialists, and one of my important takeaways is that if you’re dealing with deep lines and prominent crows feet, consider directing your attention to this drugstore product (because it deserves it!) Discover all the many ways you can use retinoids with 10 versions our editors love — not one of which will break the bank. If you’re looking for both fewer wrinkles and firmer skin around your eyes (and really, who wouldn’t want that), reach for this cream, a staple among beauty editors. It relies on both retinol and a plant-based compound from babchi seeds that has similar firming and smoothing effects. There’s also a blend of natural oils that help increase skin’s elasticity, and you can use it both under and around your eyes, as well as on the upper brow area. The best part might be the applicator, though, a gold tip that feels cooling and makes it easy to gently massage in the product.And remember — retinoids aren't just for a few select areas of the face. As you'll see from the products below, retinoids can be beneficial even in the eye area. "Studies have shown that people who apply retinoids right up to the eyes get the best results," Weiss said. Though primarily for anti-aging purposes, you can start using a retinol eye cream as early as your 20s and 30s. Follow these application guidelines from GH Beauty Lab and dermatologist experts: Retinol can often have irritating side effects, including redness and peeling, so it's best to start slow and work your way up. Most experts recommend using a retinol product once or twice a week and slowly increasing the usage as your skin adjusts. the instructions. "For best results, follow the manufacturer directions of the individual product you are using," Wnek recommends. "It's also imperative to read any warnings on the label. " Microencapsulated retinol in this formula helps to fight fine lines and wrinkles, but it’s the other ingredients that make it an A.M. go-to. Namely, three kinds of hyaluronic acid that hydrate and plump fine lines (and also make this blend extra soothing, notes King), plus finely milled pearl extract that delivers a subtle luminosity. The two combined help create the ideal base over which to apply foundation and concealer, helping you appear bright-eyed and wide-awake. Like we said, just make sure you’re wearing an SPF 30+ sunscreen anytime you use any retinoid during the day—doubly important in the summer.

Dark Circles have dramatically reduced. My eyes look brighter, more awake, which is incrediable considering what they looked like!When I became serious a while ago about using anti-ageing eye creams, I figured I could either test out a few different creams - or I could just save time and go with the proven results. As a busy working mum, of course I chose Option 2! Retinyl is a well-established ingredient in anti-ageing skincare, that improves cell-growth and skin texture, so I was happy about using Olay Pro-retinol to treat my most delicate area. It has made a difference to the skin around my eyes in a pretty noticeable way – so claims of retinyl being “a miracle product” don’t seem at all unusual. I never had pronounced crow’s feet – but they were there. Now, after a few months, they are barely noticeable. The fine lines under my eyes are still there, but are fainter and that area is much firmer and has lost any dry “crepiness”. Although there are several types of retinoids, retinol is the most widely known used one — and it, along with its fellow retinoids, has a bit of a reputation for causing irritation in new users. But that doesn't mean retinoids aren't right for you and your goals. "We've seen clinically that after two or three weeks the skin cells adapt to the retinoic acid and begin to tolerate the ingredient," Atlanta-based dermatologist Jonathan Weiss has previously told Allure. And many brands are formulating their retinoid products with both results and skin comfort in mind. The skin around the eyes is naturally thin and fragile, making it more susceptible to the aging process as collagen and elastin fibers break down with age,” Fenton explains. “We also have a lot of movement in the area as we smile, squint, and rub our eyes, which further induces the formation of wrinkles.” I intend to use it for another couple of weeks just in case it does make a slight difference, and I will update this review. Update after another two weeks: still no improvement. It's a perfectly good eye cream, but doesn't reduce wrinkles in either four or six weeks."

Olay’s best wrinkle-fighting ingredient is now in an eye cream! Olay Eyes Pro-Retinol Eye Treatment visibly reduces crow’s feet & deep wrinkles in just 4 weeks. Formulated with Olay’s best wrinkle-fighting ingredient: pro-retinol. It's gentler than other prescription retinoids and designed for the delicate skin around the eyes. Watch your crow’s feet take flight with Pro-Retinol Eye Treatment. They look fresher and hydrated. Fine lines are still there but no so deep and highlighted. My skin under my eyes doesn't look so creapy or dry. That being said, the under eye circles haven't been dramatically decreased, still there but this isn't designed for that. This tube will last me a while, even with daily use. It's such good value. The most impressive thing is although it contains retinol there's no extra dryness or irritation.

To ensure your skin doesn't get too irritated, look for retinol products that are formulated with moisturizing ingredients like niacinamideor B3, which help to calm inflammation. This is even more important when it comes to extra-sensitive parts of the skin. Fenton recommends choosing a product specifically made for the eye area if using retinol around your eyes. They’re specially formulated to be extra hydrating and minimize the likelihood of irritation.
