Sometimes, there’s not enough sleep in the world to fix dark undereye bags. It’s one of the most common skincare complaints that women have. Even Drew Barrymore struggles with them! In an Instagram post last week, Barrymore sympathized with women everywhere over the stubborn dark circles under her eyes that just won’t go away.
“I have really dark circles. That’s my problem. I don’t have lines as much as I look the crypt keeper.” Barrymore wrote. “I look more like a ghoul who came from the graveyard!”
Aside from just being funny, Barrymore’s post does have a point. Dark undereye circles can make you feel like you can’t leave the house without makeup on, or risk looking like a crypt keeper, as she put it.
Spread out in an entire arsenal of beauty products solely dedicated to fading her undereye bags, Barrymore has the HydroPeptide Eye Authority cream sitting on her bathroom counter. The self proclaimed #beautyjunkie dubbed this multidimensional eye cream one of her favorites.

HydroPeptide Eye Authority ($78)
The HydroPeptide Eye Authority eye cream is formulated with 13 peptides, crushed pearls, powerful antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid which work to brighten dark circles and fight common signs of aging. This eye product works wonders on smoothing and diminishing expression lines, crows feet, wrinkles, puffiness, and discoloration.
Barrymore shared what she found to be the secret to an effective eye cream: pigment. “The key is to find a more pigmented eye cream,” she said. “I often find white tinted and ones with a light pearl or pinky tone.”
The pearlescent hue of HydroPeptide’s Eye Authority cream gets this skincare product the Barrymore seal of approval.
