In reply to Denise. Denise, I agree. We all have different skin types and use different products, so in the end it just comes down to whatever works best for each person. :)

In reply to beautifulwithbrains. oh I see!! ^_^ Yes, I'm feeling a nice softness at that area and I think it suits me best, since when I used to put eye cream on my lids I would feel greasy and like it wouldn't sink in haha.. or if I put it right below the eyes, again I would feel the same way.. so whatever floats your boat really..

In reply to Denise. Denise, thanks for sharing, I didn't know that. I am one of those girls that applies moisturizer all over the eye area, but then I just use my usual facial moisturizer on my face and then what's left of it on my eyes. That way, I only apply a tiny layer of moisturizer on my eyes and don't feel greasy. But I'm glad applying it only on the orbital bone works best for you and I'm sure many girls will find that useful too.

Great tips!! I’ve read that we shouldn’t apply eye cream on the lid, just above it and then after a while, the cream will slide on that area (the lid) on its own and it will moisturise anyway.. so we don’t have to apply on the lids.. I also find that when I apply on the lids, my lid area ALWAYS feels very greasy to me, so I’m following the tip of applying the eye cream on the orbital bone, on the crow’s feet and just below the eyebrows..and then pat all around. ^_^ I also don’t use eye cream right below the eye, because it can get puffy, only on the orbital bone (I think that’s what it’s called) is sufficient.. 🙂

only my two cents.. 🙂

Hanna, yeah, that’s not the proper way but if you’re gentle, don’t pull and don’t apply too much pressure you should be ok. It’s when you treat your skin in a harsh way that the problems start.

I follow most of the tips u recommended here, but instead of patting my ring finger gently (which, I've read 'bout it a million times)I wipe the cream instead. It's not a correct way, I know. But it just seems easier, to me. Hehee .-= HaNNa´s last blog ..Mimoo & Panther(a) =-.
