If there’s one part of our body that needs a little TLC right now, it’s our eyes. After being subjected to Zoom call after Zoom call, late nights and early mornings, the delicate area around our eyes is starting to look, well, tired. The under-eye area is notorious for showing our indiscretions first in the form of bags and fine lines. Pay it off with a ton of moisture and cooling, soothing botanicals.
SKIN KC Apricot Mango Eye Cream, $32, available at SKIN KC (Brookside)
An Apricot Mango a Day Keeps the Fine Lines Away
Moisture is the number one thing that your under-eye area needs, and one of the best ways to quench its thirst is through rich fruit oils like organic apricot kernel oil and mango butter. Add a bit of vitamin E for healing and glycerin to hold that moisture in the skin, and you have a soothing morning and evening routine.
Keys Eye Butter, $28, Hand and Land (Midtown)
Ah Spa
If you don’t have time to sit around with cucumber slices on your eyes in quiet repose, grab a bottle of Keys Eye Butter.

Of course, it’s also chock-full of shea butter, avocado oil, and carrot seed oil, so your eyes will feel pampered and look awake.
