The best types will contain silk amino acids which will help to smooth and improve skin texture and strengthen skin around the eye area.
Eye creams are worth trying because they are specifically formulated to provide moisture to the thinnest skin is around your eyes where there are limited oils and less fat. Don't confuse the use of eye creams and eye gels either. The gels are formulated to deflate bags and give a cooling, refreshing sensation, but rarely claim to moisturise the skin. Never apply a AHA or Retinal Cream close to the eye area unless it is specified for that use.
It's important to avoid the dangers of being seduced into thinking that any eye creams or serums perform miracles, and neglecting or ignoring the other important elements that keep your skin healthy.
Water is worth a mention and an essential part to everybody's life. The human body is made up of 70% water, and now it is widely believed that dehydration is the main culprit for poor looking skin.

Take a mouthful of water whenever you see a bottle. This way, drinking two litres per day won't seem so daunting after all.
