The 12 Best Eye-lifting Serums

The under eyes are the most vulnerable skin area due to their delicate nature, which is why they require a bit more T.L.C. compared to the rest of your face. If you’re noticing more pronounced fine lines and wrinkles and loss of firmness around the eye contour, it may be time to invest in one of the best eye-lifting serums.

Offering more potency and efficacy compared to traditional eye creams, eye serums are designed to penetrate quickly and deeply into the skin in order to deliver active ingredients directly to the cells. To correct loss of firmness and elasticity, antiaging eye serums are formulated with collagen stimulators like retinol and peptides to support your skin’s natural regeneration process, allowing them to repair, strengthen and tighten your skin from the inside out and give your eyes a more sculpted, firmer and toned look. The best eye-lifting serums, however, cater to a variety of under-eye woes and include brightening, hydrating and depuffing ingredients so they can tackle dark circles, puffiness, under-eye bags, dryness and free radical damage while redefining and plumping your eye contour.
