Holy Hydration! Eye Cream — Reddit Reviews
by e.l.f.
Updated October 3, 2026
Basic moisturizing eye cream with peptides and hyaluronic acid; good under tret.
What the community says
A no-frills eye cream built around glycerin, peptides, sodium hyaluronate, and emollients. It’s the kind of thing people use at night under tret or on dry, itchy lids; very dry eyes may want something richer.
What this means for you
What people love
- Basic moisturizer, not a fancy actives cocktail
- Good under tret and on dry, itchy eyelids
- Peptides plus hyaluronic acid for under-eye hydration
Watch out for
- Won’t do much for stubborn dark circles
- Pretty plain — if you want retinal or acids, this isn’t it
- May be too lightweight for very dry under-eyes
