Instagram feed, drugstore shelf or dermatologist's office, you've probably seen a few products from CeraVe. The brand is known for gentle ingredients and budget-friendly prices, like that of its CeraVe Eye Repair Cream. Formulated to reduce dryness, the ointment also helps reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness, all while being fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and noncomedogenic. Right now, you can snag a tube for just $14, down from $20.
This cream — a Yahoo reader fave — contains three restorative ceramides, moisturizing hyaluronic acid and soothing niacinamide to combat dryness and reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.
Why is this a good deal? 💰
CeraVe is one of those tried-and-true gems and, at $14, you can help turn back the hands of time without having to fork over hundreds for costly in-office treatments or intensive facials and peels. It's even on Yahoo Senior Beauty Editor Jenn Romolini's list of best eye creams, so you know it's good!
Why do I need this? 🤔
When celebrities like Olivia Wilde rave about a beauty brand, we're all ears. "I use the cheapest possible skin care — not because it's cheap, but because it's the best," Wilde has said. "Dermatologists have recommended it for years, and I've never paid attention. But recently I started using Cetaphil cleanser and CeraVe moisturizer. They're gentle and simple."
The formula’s got some anti-aging heavy hitters, including ceramides to restore, hyaluronic acid to hydrate and niacinamide to calm and brighten. We also love that it's ophthalmologist-tested, non-greasy and fast-absorbing.

What reviewers say 💬
Shoppers swear their eyes look brighter and younger after using this product. Nearly 43,000 reviewers have given it a five-star rating.
Pros 👍
One super-satisfied reviewer called it "Botox in a tube" while another more-frazzled shopper reported: "This is the greatest product ever! I have such dark circles from stress, work and lack of sleep. After using this cream as directed for five days, the dark circles started fading (and are) completely gone after one week. I'm telling everyone about this miracle cream. ... I look five years younger now!"
"I’m so impressed with the CeraVe Eye Repair Cream! I’ve been struggling with puffiness and bags under my eyes for a while, and this product has made a noticeable difference. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave any greasy residue, which I love," gushed a final de-puffed fan. "My under-eye area looks brighter, smoother, and less swollen. I’ve been using it consistently for a couple of weeks now, and I’ve noticed a significant reduction in puffiness and dark circles."
Cons 👎
Some shoppers have a few tips. One reviewer warned: "If you have sensitive skin or eyes, it will irritate and burn a little."
"The bottle is kind of small, so it might run out fast-ish if you use it twice a day like me," revealed this user. "But I do think it is reasonable for its price."
