I have oily eyelids (a recipe for makeup smudges), so I normally use eye cream only at night. But I found that Akar Restore Eye Serum is light enough to use during the day. The serum is actually an oil — it’s packed with hydrating, soothing botanical oils like argan and jojoba and meets Allure’s Clean Standard – but even though it’s an oil, there is nothing greasy about it. I warmed one dropperful (enough for both eyes) between my fingers so I could apply a thin layer, and gently pressed it below my eyes and along my brow bones. I was left with soft, moisturized skin — and no signs of creased shadow or streaked mascara later in the day.
