10 Best Eye Creams UK 2024 | Olay, REN and More

Our number one choice, REN is a real favourite in the world of cult skincare. Additionally, REN creates cruelty-free, vegan products using 'clean' ingredients, and this eye cream contains some very effective yet natural ones. So, it's suitable for every skin and lifestyle type, and affordable, too. 

In terms of beneficial ingredients, there's hexapeptide-11, sourced from yeast, to improve skin's firmness, rosehip oil for rejuvenating vitamin A, and the ceramide-like carthame which nourishes skin's barrier. It has everything you need and the packaging is 100% recycled too! 

This hyaluronic eye complex comes in a roll-on form which not only is kind to the skin around the eyes but is fun to use too. The rollerball creates a soothing and cooling effect, improving microcirculation and skin tone.

It has a slightly watery texture similar to a serum, and cucumber extract adds to the relaxing and soothing experience. However, don't be fooled – it's also great for dry or sensitive skin and hydrates perfectly whilst being gentle. 

If utter decadence is what you are looking for in an eye cream, La Mer is unmistakably the one for you. The Eye Concentrate is one of the most expensive eye creams out there, but if it is within your budget, it's definitely worth it!

Formulated with a triple concentration of Miracle Broth™ this fast-absorbing treatment strengthens, stabilises and softens the delicate eye area. Algae (seaweed) extract is the first ingredient on the list, and the cream comes with a sleek applicator/eye-roller.

Powered by a complex of resveratrol and hyaluronic acid, this amazing gel-cream lifts and plumps the skin around the eye area, whilst reducing the appearance of lines. The formulation includes plant extracts and firming peptides, which effectively reduce under-eye puffiness and leave you looking as fresh as a daisy.

The texture of the gel feels wonderful on the skin, and a firming feeling can be felt immediately with results lasting for the whole day. Made with 97% natural ingredients, ophthalmologist tested and fragrance-free, this gel does it all!

Wake up and smell the coffee with this fabulously refreshing, brightening eye cream. Especially effective for those with a busy lifestyle of late nights or long flights, its natural formula instantly restores radiance to tired eyes.

Applying the cream, you'll notice it has a gorgeous pearlescent quality, which in turn brightens the eye area creating a dewy glow. Not only do Origins use ingredients powered by nature, but their packaging is also satisfyingly minimal by design. Meaning you get to do your bit for the planet, too!

The combination of highly-concentrated hyaluronic acid, caffeine and double peptides are truly a wonder trio in the fight against fine lines, eye bags and puffiness. Add into that a string of botanical ingredients and vitamins and it's no surprise this stuff works so well!

After a few days of use, this firming eye cream shows noticeable effects in terms of reducing circles and puffiness around the eyes. Reminiscent of famed French pharmacy skincare, the scent is fresh and light without any overpowering tones.

Liz Earle have created a wonderfully hydrating cream enriched with their own Superskin™ blend of botanical ingredients including rosehip, borage and cranberry seed oils, plus lots of other lovely plant extracts. Particularly formulated to help with dark circles, it also visibly lifts and firms, banishing puffiness too.

With a light, easily-absorbed texture that's also very moisturising, a little really goes a long way! It's a great pick for all skin types, and this gem leaves eyes looking beautifully soft and well-rested.

As a 100% natural (and often organic) skincare range, Dr Hauschka's products are made from medicinal plant extracts, oils and waxes, and are the perfect treatment for your delicate eye area. Light and gentle, you can trust in using this eye cream on a daily basis for youthful skin that's healthy from the inside out.

Its botanical ingredients, including rose distillate, calendula and avocado, amongst many others, assure that your skin is hydrated and sufficiently nourished. Be mindful, however, that the fragrant oils it contains could irritate some people with very sensitive skin.

Give your eyes a boost with this cream from a reputable brand that has a multi-action formula which works to reduce dark circles, wrinkles, and de-puffs simultaneously for instantly younger-looking eyes. Not only that, but it also could serve as a concealer for all skin types.

It's hydrating and leaves the eyes feeling soft and nourished. However, although this product is advanced in many ways with a nice and thick consistency, it might not be suitable for use during the summer months.

This treatment is supercharged with Estée Lauder's '10X Concentrated Repair Technology', which boasts the ability to repair the skin from lack of sleep, UV rays, pollution and blue light. Its multi-action defence technology also prevents free radical damage with antioxidant power that lasts for 8 hours.

This product is popular online due to its ability to make the eye area clearer, brighter and preventing ageing. It contains some brilliant ingredients, however, it is only intended for use at night so those wanting a cooling cream for tired mornings will have to double up on purchases.
