Sure, we’ll admit it: There is something undeniably satisfying about using a luxurious eye cream. You know, the kind that comes in a fancy glass jar that feels heavy in your palm and smells like a beautiful rose garden (or something equally sublime). Problem is, the novelty tends to wear off when you see the price tag, which can run upwards of $100 (and beyond).
We know, it’s tempting to try to save a little money by simply sharing your moisturizer with your undereye area. But eye creams really are formulated differently, so it’s worth looking into a separate product. “Because they are landing on thinner skin, eye creams have a tendency to be thicker — a higher amount of oil, less water — than facial moisturizers,” Mona Gohara, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Connecticut has previously told Allure.
The good news? You don’t actually have to fork over half your paycheck to get your hands on an excellent eye cream. In fact, there’s a bevy of worthy options patiently waiting on the shelves at your local drugstore (and online), and they promise the same line-smoothing, dark-circle-reducing results as the expensive versions. Dermatologists are down with affordable eye creams, too, which is another reason you should drop what you’re doing and look into the not-so-pricey options out there.
To get you started, check out the budget-friendly undereye treatments we’re personally partial to — the best drugstore eye creams and beyond — along with a few fantastic formulas recommended by skin-care professionals. (Did we mention they’re all under $20?)
