The luxury eye cream market is the most overpriced category in beauty. Here are five drugstore options that hold their own.
- RoC Retinol Correxion Eye Cream. The benchmark. Real retinol at a real concentration.
- CeraVe Eye Repair Cream. Ceramides plus niacinamide. Boring on paper, excellent in practice.
- Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Eye Cream. Hyaluronic acid plus peptides. Plumps without irritation.
- Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Eye Cream. Retinol-based with hyaluronic acid for hydration cushion.
- L’Oréal Revitalift Triple Power Eye Cream. The drugstore upgrade pick — pro-retinol plus brightening.
Save the eye cream budget. Spend it on a real serum instead.
