Got Bags? (Under Your Eyes)

You didn't get home at 3am, but your under-eyes look like you did. You need Dead Tired Club's Peptide Firming Under Eye Cream, aka, Got Bags?

As oestrogen declines, the thin skin under your eyes can lose firmness faster than the rest of your face, and that's the shadowing and hollowing, not just tiredness. A trio of peptides (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Tetrapeptide-7, Tripeptide-38) helps firm and smooth, retinaldehyde refines texture over time, and cucumber brings the cooling, refreshed feel your under-eyes want in the morning.

This isn't concealer. It's skincare for what's going on underneath.

The science: Peptides support the skin's collagen signalling, helping improve the look of firmness in the thin, delicate under-eye area. That makes this complementary to pigment-focused treatments for dark circles.

Who's it for: For under-eyes that look like you had the big night out you didn't actually have. Perimenopause and menopause skin changes can show up here first. If you've typed "best eye cream for menopause" into Google while side-eyeing your reflection, this one's for you. No concealer, no "just get more sleep."

How to apply it: Pump a rice-grain amount onto your finger. Pat gently under each eye, inner corner to outer. Never rub, that skin's thinner than your patience. Use at night to start, and wear SPF by day.
