While K-beauty has made its way to the United States, the best Korean eye creams have hardly had the love they deserve. Fairly priced with potent formulas, these eye creams harness the power of actives like retinol or bakuchiol to firm up the skin without causing irritation. Brendan Camp, MD, a double board-certified dermatologist in New York told Vogue previously that retinol in eye creams “can help stimulate collagen and limit the appearance and formation of fine lines and crepey skin.” Meanwhile, ingredients such as centella asiatica and panthenol in Korean eye creams can soothe the delicate under-eye area, while caffeine and steel ball applicators depuff and cool.
Vogue’s Favorite Korean Eye Creams:
When seeking out one of the best Korean eye crams, Peach & Lily founder Alicia Yoon previously told Vogue it’s important “to choose one that suits your eye area and addresses specific concerns you’re targeting.” “The eye area is delicate and thin and can have its own set of issues—dark circles, puffiness, fine lines, dryness,” so remember to patch test, and then “dab on the product rather than tugging and pulling,” she said.
