I don’t think there’s a scientific way to gauge this, but I am pretty sure there is a direct correlation between the darker the days get and the darker my eye circles become. Given the change in seasons and fewer hours of sunlight, my black circles are deepening and spreading across my face like a black mold infestation. There are products that I know of and like but for the sake of beauty journalism, I am always testing new things. There have been dozens of eye creams that have made contact with my face in the last few months, but Murad’s Targeted Eye Depuffer is my favorite. 

I use this solely in the mornings. I squeeze out a little bit of the cream and then use the cold metal applicator to spread it under my eyes. Using the applicator for 5-10 seconds is enough for things to start working, but I love the cool massaging sensation, so I sometimes do it for a minute on each eye. The result? Brighter eyes — it’s like turning a light on in a dark room. There are small shimmery particles that are almost imperceptible but they light up the dark circles. They are also noticeably less puffy, which I think makes my eyelids look less droopy. 

Murad

Murad’s Targeted Eye Depuffer makes an immediate impact; it’s like a cosmetic product but it has some long-term benefits I’m starting to see after two months of use. My eye puffiness is less severe in the morning to begin with and the dark circles, though still there, are lighter and require less work. 

The ingredients behind the slow burn benefits are peptides, ginseng, and caffeine. One study on peptides in eye creams found it improved elasticity, firmness, hydration, all the while lessening the number of and severity of wrinkles and fine lines, and other studies have found that ginseng improves wrinkles and collagen production. Caffeine is a super common eye cream ingredient thanks to the way it improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and tightens skin. 

Head to Murad to shop the Targeted Eye Depuffer that is going to be my own personal savior this fall and winter season.
