Runners-up to RoC’s eye cream are similar hard-working skin-care products from La Roche-Posay and SkinCeuticals. Of course, if vitamin C isn’t your cup of tea, SkinCeuticals’ Discoloration Defense uses tranexamic acid to not only correct but prevent dark spots. It’s no wonder it’s a year-round favorite among readers. I was already a convert of The Rich Cream, so I was eager to try the brand’s more targeted eye treatment. It’s formulated with the TFC8 or Trigger Factor Complex to activate the body’s stem cells and support cellular renewal with other antioxidant-packed ingredients, including seaweed and pennywort.
