Eye cream duo: Tata Harper and Dr. Dennis Gross

When I wrote about my basic skincare routine , I mentioned eye cream as part of the "bare minimum". Lots of people use their regular moisturizer for the under-eye area, but I believe your eyes deserve a little more than that. There's two very good reasons for that: (a) the skin of your (under)eyes is the thinnest skin you have, and (b) connected to that: it is also the area that ages the fastest. All the more reason to focus on hydrating your undereyes with a lighter cream and to start with antiaging products there the earliest. Regular moisturizers tend to have bigger molecules and/or be of a thicker consistency, clogging pores and causing milea (you know, those annoying little white marks that are so hard to safely remove). In addition, exposure to the sun, squinting and just regular smiling can cause wrinkles under, between and around the eyes. First of, I find it very important to properly hydrate, especially considering my tendency to develop under eye circle
