The best advice for attaining a radiant look is to personalise. Select according to your own specific qualities, such as skin-type and age. Don’t overdo it. Using too many different items could actually strain your complexion rather than optimising it. Additionally, be sure to try out each on a small section before committing. The eye cream featured here is targeted at people with all types of skin and applied to the eye area. Peter Thomas Roth ascribes fortifying and smoothing qualities to it, claiming that it helps to reduce puffiness. Peter Thomas Roth Facial Care: Price UK The Peter Thomas Roth Instant FIRMx® Eye instantly and temporarily tightens, firms and smoothes the look of the eye area to diminish the appearance of crows feet, fine lines, deep wrinkles and under-eye puffiness.

The brand recommends you wash your face with a non-oily cleanser first, and avoid using an eye cream if possible. Wait for the skin to dry completely, then apply a thin layer of the gel in upward strokes on your problem areas. As you wait for the product to absorb, you’ll literally feel the tightening sensation for an instant firm, smoothing effect in less than five minutes. Just try not to make any expressions as it dries down! Like most skincare products, persistence is key and you won’t necessarily see results immediately. That said, some of the eye creams included below, such as Peter Thomas Roth’s, do make a noticeable difference to under-eye puffiness when first applied, particularly if you have stored them somewhere cool beforehand. Anything else I should consider? If you’re after immediate results, this is definitely the cream for you. Admittedly, results are only temporary, lasting several hours on average. But of all the skincare products we’ve put to the test, this is a significantly transformative product.

The eye treatment is said to instantly minimise the appearance of crow’s feet, fine lines, deep wrinkles and under-eye puffiness by smoothing, firming, and tightening the delicate skin around the eyes. Women of all ages from their 20s to 70s have hailed the skin tightening eye cream as ‘magic’, saying it’s given them more confidence. Some say their husbands have been pinching it to use themselves, too. Firstly, it really surprises me that this is a product created by Peter Thomas Roth as I have only known the brand to create formulas that are about improving and maintaining healthy skin in the long term, so the fact this is all about an instant fix is confusing to me. It promises to tighten the under-eye area and improve the look of crow’s feet, puffiness and fine lines and in all honesty, it kind of did but in a way that feels more suitable to stage make-up than skincare. Other ingredients such as vitamins C and E can help the eye area to look brighter, which will also minimise the look of puffiness under the eyes. A lot of eye creams will also have a hydrating effect: for instance, hyaluronic acid helps the skin to retain moisture, which in turn will help firm and tighten the eye area.

I have been putting this review off for a long time because I was genuinely at a loss of how to describe it. I just didn’t get it. This product is all over TikTok at the moment and I can see why because it's different, and I can see how it could work well for full-coverage make-up, but for me this was not great. Firms and smoothes the under-eye area instantly to reduce the appearance of crow's feet, fine lines, deep wrinkles and swelling. Using upward strokes, spread a thin layer of the gel underneath the eyes for puffiness, over the crow's feet area, over the ""11"" lines between the brows, and beneath and above the brow bone (but not on the moveable eyelid). Your eye cream of choice should be applied as one of the final steps of your skincare routine: after you cleanse, tone and add any serums to your skin, but before you apply your moisturiser. How do I apply an eye cream for puffy eyes? One shopper, Karen, said: “Fantastic product that really does work like magic,” while another customer described it as a ‘miracle in a tube’.

Let the product dry for approximately five minutes while remaining completely expressionless. Do not squint or smile. She smears it on her forehead, her forehead looks smoother, tighter, her lines almost erased. We are screaming, “omg, omg”! This actually works. Meanwhile, I try to smile. My face is distorted. It's so stiff it doesn’t move properly. My friends are laughing at me. I look like I’m trying to talk with a plum in my mouth. I may have flaky white residue on my face (this isn't so bad if you mix the product with moisturiser), and I may not be able to smile, but I don’t care. I look 10 years younger – so long as I stay totally still. READ MORE: Shoppers rush to Boots to snap up half-price Soap and Glory gift tin that goes on sale today

Instant FIRMx Lip Filler

For all skin types , Normal skin , Combination skin , Dry skin , Oily skin , Mature skin , Sensitive skin , Blemished skin After seeing this eye cream all over TikTok, I was very intrigued give it a go, but I was also aware that I’ve not really got under eye lines to soften or bags to depuff yet since I’m still in my 20s, so heading into it, I knew the dramatic results would be wasted on me. As with any eye cream, less is more. You need to use only a small, pea-sized amount of eye cream for both eyes. We recommend gently dabbing the cream on with your finger, starting at the inner corner of your eye and working your way along to the outer corner. Then tap the product into the skin lightly. On me, it’s difficult to say how good the results were. It definitely made me look more wide awake by tightening the area. Sadly, I found it too uncomfortable to wear and, quite frankly, just don’t need a product like that at the moment. I did, however, try it on my mum who had pretty dramatic results. It absolutely lives up to the claim of being instant and it certainly smoothes out fine lines and its ability to depuff near instantly is incredible.

The first time I tried Peter Thomas Roth Instant FirmX Eye, I was extremely tired and jet lagged after a 9-hour Transatlantic flight (as evidenced by my puffy, bloodshot eyes in the before picture). Fine lines, crow’s feet and shadows are a daily concern too, so I was hopeful the cream would also make them magically disappear. The instructions recommended to apply the product to just-cleansed skin before the rest of your skincare serums and creams. You must shake the product first to activate it and then apply a thin layer over the eye area (if you apply too much, they suggest to wipe away the excess with a damp cloth after it dries). Meanwhile, Yaya was considering cosmetic procedures until she discovered the cream, commenting: “I have the puffiest under-eye bags and was seriously considering under eye filler to get rid of them, until I finally got my hands on this. It does an amazing job of smoothing out any lines and getting rid of puffiness so concealer looks perfect after putting this on.” For that reason, this product definitely isn’t for beginners or those who aren’t really comfortable with their make-up application. If you take this eye cream for a spin, your under eyes will most certainly be transformed, but get ready for touch-ups throughout the day.While certain skincare products – eye creams being a good example – don’t produce results overnight, we take note of a product’s feel on application in terms of whether it delivers an instant cooling or soothing effect on that delicate area of skin. To evaluate their effect on under eye puffiness, we observed the under eye area before and after application for any visible changes to the feel of skin and reduction of puffiness. Because the skin around the eyes is fragile, be careful not to rub or pull at the skin as you apply your eye cream. And take care not to get any of the cream in your eye itself. Some creams come with a metal applicator tip for ease of application. I see exactly how it might work for others as it's like liposuction under your eye, but it just didn't quite meet my needs. Perhaps it's a little too soon for me to be looking for a cream ‘eye-lift’. I gave it to my mum and she loved it, so at least it went to a good home.
