Inexpensive eye cream

Hi! I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a fairy inexpensive eye cream (less than $30). The areas around and under my eyes are quite dry so I'm looking for something very hydrating. I'm 15 so anti-aging properties is something that might be beneficial to start thinking about, but is not necessary. Thanks!

I personally like Mary Kay dark spot corrector (roller ball) I put some under my eyes and it gets rid of any dark circles completely which is something a lot of teens struggle with. It is $55 though I'm pretty sure.. It'll last you seriously forever and it's great! As for eye creams, I just use a ton of sample ones. Currently, I'm using the Mary Kay gel under eye.

Thank you so much Katelyn, dark/red under eye circles is something that I really struggle with and can't seem to cover. I'll definitely look into that one!

You're welcome (: it's definitely worth it! It is a little pricy, but I've had it for over a year now and there is still a lot left! It will last you a lifetime! Great investment imo (:

Try using vaseline at night, it will help hydrate the area without expensive products.

Vaseline is a sealant and shouldn't be used around the eyes. It can seal in bacteria and cause eye infections.

^ don't use vaseline. Katelyn is correct.

Also, I'd look into jojoba oil (5-30$ depending on size). It's the closest thing to the skins sebum, and is super hydrating. I've been using it for the past few weeks and have notice a ton of difference in the dryness. If you have dark circles sweet almond oil (5-30$ again depending on size) helps too :) just a drop or two is needed for each.

Elf has a cheap one (I can't remember how much) and I really like it
It's good for hydrating

I switch up products all the time, I play it off as research for my clients but I think realistically I'm just a skincare junkie lol. One of my favorite cheaper eye creams would definitely be the hyaluronic eye cream & you can get it at ulta.

Whoa...I must admit, I'm surprised at some of these pricy recommendations for a basic moisturizing question. I love the cream Sarah suggested. Really keeps the undereye plump and hydrated. For $18, it packs a healthy punch and you need but the tiniest dab.

I use Boots No. 7. Works great, and you can find it at Target.
