Getting older is an unfortunate fact of life. However, that doesn’t have to mean that your skin ages with you. Your under eyes are one of the biggest indicators of your age, so it’s important to include products in your skincare routine that help to heal and nourish that area to minimize dark circles, wrinkles, and sagging skin. If you’re in the market for a new product to add to your skincare lineup to reverse aging and lift your features without going under the knife, these are the four best, dermatologist approved formulas to do the trick.
Exuviance Age Reverse Eye Contour Anti Aging Eye Cream
Proven to lift the skin under the eyes and reduce puffiness and the appearance of fine lines, this cream is ideal for hydrating your under eye area to hide signs of aging. Board-certified dermatologist Noelani Gonzalez, MD, tells Refinery29, “This eye cream's unique combination of potent ingredients such as maltobionic acid plus PHAs helps reduce the appearance of dark circles and brighten the under-eye area."

Revision Skincare Teamine Eye Complex
This hydrating under eye cream works to minimize dark circles and brighten the face while simultaneously smoothing fine lines and wrinkles to appear younger and more vibrant. Karen Hammerman, MD explains to Byrdie, “Vitamins K, E, and C work together with green tea extract to brighten dark under-eye circles.” Ideal for every skin type, this cream will have you looking younger and more awake in no time.

OLEHENRIKSEN Banana Bright Eye Crème
This cult favorite eye cream is perfect for brightening the skin under the eyes and diminishing the appearance of wrinkles while color correcting. According to The Derm Review, the Vitamin C in this product is particularly useful for anti aging. “Vitamin C is beneficial to the skin because it is a very potent antioxidant. Antioxidants work by limiting oxidative damage caused by free radicals, the unstable molecules that contribute to the formation of premature wrinkles and fine lines on the skin. Vitamin C is also known to help brighten the skin tone and decrease the appearance of dark spots through inhibition of melanin synthesis.”

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Eye Gel-Cream
If a drugstore cream is more within your price range, this option from Neutrogena still contains many of the same benefits with a considerably lower price tag. Dr. Joshua Zeichner explains to Self, “To prevent dryness and irritation, stick to hyaluronic acid to hydrate and plump the skin.” This gel-cream works to combat dryness, moisturizing the skin and allowing for your youthful glow to shine through.
