Eye Creams & Eye Gels

Eye creams and eye gels are both skincare products specifically formulated for the delicate skin around the eyes, but they have some differences in terms of their texture, ingredients, and targeted concerns:

Texture:

• Eye Creams: Typically have a richer, creamier texture. They are more emollient and provide intense hydration to the delicate skin around the eyes.
• Eye Gels: Have a lighter, more gel-like consistency. They are often water-based and have a cooling effect when applied, which can help reduce puffiness and soothe the skin.

Ingredients:

• Eye Creams: Tend to contain heavier moisturising ingredients such as oils, butters, and occlusives like shea butter, jojoba oil, or squalane. They may also include anti-aging ingredients like retinol, peptides, or hyaluronic acid to target fine lines and wrinkles.
• Eye Gels: Often contain lighter, water-based ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, cucumber extract, or aloe vera, which provide hydration without feeling heavy on the skin. They may also include ingredients like caffeine or vitamin C to help reduce puffiness and brighten the under-eye area.

Targeted Concerns:

• Eye Creams: Primarily focus on providing deep hydration and addressing signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity.
• Eye Gels: Typically target issues like puffiness, dark circles, and tired-looking eyes. They may also provide lightweight hydration without feeling greasy or heavy.
