Many brands are creating hybrid products that blur the lines between makeup and skincare, so today, we’re going to discuss one of our favorites: tinted SPF eye cream.
Benefits of Tinted SPF Eye Cream
By now, we know that SPF is a crucial step in any skincare regimen, but it is especially important for the delicate under-eye area, one of the most sensitive areas of the skin. Three products in one, tinted SPF eye creams give you all the benefits of a sunscreen, an under-eye cream, and a concealer: The SPF protects against UV rays; the cream combats puffiness, dark circles, and signs of aging; and the tinted component helps conceal dark circles. Tinted SPF eye creams can be worn on their own or under makeup if you prefer.
