Saint Jane Beauty Bright Repair Eye Cream has such a luxuriously silky-smooth formula that the first time I tried it, I wanted to apply it to my entire face rather than just concentrate it on the small area of skin under my eyes (don't worry, I refrained). The botanical formula is packed with antioxidants from grapeseed oil and green tea, giving it its soothing qualities while also providing your skin with a burst of hydration when you rub it in. It glides across skin like a water cream but absorbs without that wet feeling that some leave behind. And yes, it layers perfectly under makeup — something I tested firsthand multiple times during lazy mornings when I needed to cram both my skin-care and makeup routine into under 10 minutes.
On those particularly hectic mornings, the Saint Jane Beauty Bright Repair Eye Cream ($65) helped me eliminate a step from my routine by taking the place of an additional serum. As someone with combination skin, there are times when my moisturiser offers enough hydration for my face, but the skin under my eyes is still in need of an additional pick-me-up — the eye cream offers me that relief.
