The lightweight formula also incorporates Vitamins B3 and B5 to help hydrate, soothe, and repair skin’s moisture barrier while botanical extracts help target dullness and uneven skin tone.”
Key ingredients: Peptides, vitamin B3, vitamin B5

Amazon rating: 4.4/5 stars
An Amazon reviewer says: “I have always hated my dark circles. I’ve been using this for a week, and it does make the skin under my eyes feel refreshed. The lotion applies smoothly, and you really don’t need much at all. It isn’t sticky or wet; just somewhere in between. There really isn’t any scent. My dark circles have diminished in appearance, and I’m happy about that.”
