On the ring finger — the weakest finger, so you press rather than drag. Along the orbital bone under the eye and out towards the temple, not on the lid; it spreads inwards on its own. Morning and evening, after serum. Store below 30°C, which in a Queensland bathroom means keep it out of the window.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eBefore you buy\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe skin around the eye is the thinnest on the body. A face cream is not wrong there, it is just heavier than the area needs — a gel absorbs faster and does not migrate into the eye overnight. If your under-eye skin is genuinely dry and crepey rather than puffy, a richer cream at night may suit you better, and we explain the difference in the Journal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat to expect\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eEye products are the most oversold category in skincare. Nothing topical removes a dark circle caused by the shape of your face or by blood vessels under thin skin — that is anatomy, and no gel changes it. What a good one does is hydrate the area so it looks less creased, and reduce the look of puffiness for a few hours. That is worth having. It is not a transformation, and anyone promising you one is selling you something. The long version is in the Journal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFull ingredient list\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice*, Glycerin, Hydrolyzed Jojoba Esters, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Oil, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Hippophae Rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) Fruit Oil, Sodium Hyaluronate, Niacinamide, Caffeine, Quercus Suber Bark Extract, Dipropylene Glycol, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract*, Santalum Acuminatum (Quandong) Fruit Extract*, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Acrylates Copolymer, Lecithin.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Certified organic\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 ml.
