1. Hydrating Ingredients

Look for moisturizers with deeply hydrating ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or squalane. These help replenish moisture and plump the delicate under-eye area.

2. Anti-Aging Benefits

Ingredients like peptides, retinol (in gentle formulations), and antioxidants can target fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of firmness commonly seen in mature skin.

3. Gentle Formulation

The skin around the eyes is thin and sensitive, so choose products that are fragrance-free and ophthalmologist-tested to minimize irritation.

4. Targeted Concerns
