Isabel, I usually apply moisturizer on my face and then only what’s left on my hands on my eyes so even if the texture’s heavy, only a very small part ends up on the eye area. Enough to moisturize but not enough to cause problems. I understand why some people prefer to still use an eye cream due to the consistency of some face moisturizers though. But being the cheapstake that I am, I’d just switch to a product that I can use everywhere lol.

I didn’t mean to say that products with hyaluronic acid don’t work at all. Hyaluronic acid has moisturizing properties and prevents water loss, keeping skin soft and hydrating. It just doesn’t have anti-aging properties so if the product you’re using has those benefits, it’s something else in the formula that provides them, not hyaluronic acid.

Makeup morsels, I agree with you that drinking water is important and has lots of benefits for the body and skin as well. I’m sorry if that didn’t come across well. What I meant was that while drinking water has benefits for the body (and when the body is healthy skin looks better too), hydrating skin is sadly not one of them.

Stavroula, that’s exactly what I do too and it’s always worked well. I have sometimes tried samples of eye creams that come in those travel size or GWP sets, but they never did anything for dark circles and stuff like that so I must just as well save the money and use face moisturizers instead.

lol. me too, lol.

Anyway, some products with hyaluronic acid actually do work.. Like the Hada Labo lotion. It doesn’t feel like just slapping moisturizer on your face.
