Can this line of sunscreen products be applied directly under the eyes and on the eyelids? If not, what sunscreen is good to use around the eyes? Also, how many times should I reapply sunscreen (on the face,neck, and eyes) in the course of a day. I...

Yes, it can be used under the eye and eyelids. If I spend the day mostly indoors only walking in and out from my car running errands, etc.; I only use the elta MD once in the morning. If I plan to be outside exposed to the sun, I always wear sunglasses and a hat. When spending time on the beach or working in the yard, attending a picnic... I reapply every 2 hours which my dermatologist strongly recommends. Always reapply after swimming. My dermatologist explained that Zinc is a total block and Ulta MD has micronized the zinc allowing it to absorb quickly and not paint you white. There is another Elta MD product available (Elta MD UV Spray Broad Spectrum SPF 46) which you may be interested in that is a spray on; great when your spending time outdoors. I hope my response was helpful.

Hi Feng X, Yes it is specifically for the face, neck and neckline and can (and should) be used around the eye area. KennyCEOChristina Moss Naturals

I did a lot of research on using this under the eyes, and I came up with this...those who put it on the delicate under eye area ended up with dry, wrinkly skin there. It is a very drying product, and I don't recommend using it anywhere near the eyes. But it works wonders on the facial skin! I love it! Hope this helps!

Hi Marin-Kit-Kat, thanks for your question. The skin around our eyes is much thinner & more sensitive than the rest of our face. I would use caution and test first. Some customers do apply Vitamin C Serum to their orbital bone beneath the eyes with no irritation, and get the results they are looking for. If irritation occurs during your test, discontinue use in that area. All my best, and don't hestiate to write us directly, Pamela

Yes, you can use it on eyelids. I only use it at the very top under my eyebrows, as it seems to have a little but of tightening effect.

I especially use it around the eye area, using a small amount on my eyelids. I have my husband applying the serum twice a day, and I can see a difference in his skin.

I have used it around my eyes with no problems. I apply it like any face lotion, so about a small fingernail size amount. On work days, I only apply in the morning. On the weekends if you are outside all day, I would re-apply at least one more time, depending on your skin type.

I have for years patted on eye cream all around my lips !! I'm soon to be 60 yrs & most think I'm much younger. I think taking care of neck area & around lips is a good way to stay looking younthful. Hopes this helps. To answer your question I do use it around my mouth area every night, I use this eyecream as my nighttime routine. Once my other eyecream runs out (day) I'm going to start using day & night.

I have used it both times, but make sure your skin is used to it. The first week that i was using this product, my skin dried out and was burning near the eyes, but once i went to an "every-other-night" regime, it cleared up. after that, i was able to apply it normally and twice a day. sometimes it starts getting dry again, so i skip applying it for a day. so to answer your question clearly, yes, but pay attention to your skin. hope that helps!

This is a very light weight lotion, when I put it under my eyes and around the eye, I try to apply on my skin and not in my eye, but it would probably burn if you put it on your contact lens or in your eye, but if you apply to just the skin, and wash your hands before you put your contacts on, it will probably be ok, Im not a Opthalmologist or dermatologist so I am not giving a medical opinion.

Absolutely, I use it every day. It's a really great moisturizer but "a little" is the key word. It does have some fruit extract in it which can be slightly irritating to the eyes so I'm careful how much I put around that area. It's fine as long as you don't actually get it inside your eyes. But it does wonders for the skin and wrinkles. There's another version that has SPF16 sunscreen in it because this formula can make your skin more sensitive to the sun so if I'm going to be outside I use that on my face and hands. That version can be even more irritating if you perspire and some gets into your eyes. But it's just a matter of washing the area around your eyes if that happens. Absolutely, I use it every day.

I use this product everyday. I use probably between 1-2 teaspoons on my face, neck and hands. I do put it under my eyes but not on my eyelids. I always reapply if I'm going to the pool or beach or working out outside. This is a fantastic product. It is so smooth and silky and definitely not greasy like typical sunscreens. You will love it. I am very fair, and I used this product religiously in Bora Bora last summer and I did not burn at all.

When I bought it initially at the mall and realized I totally over paid, they told me that I should use the serum at night and the cream in the morning. You use it everyday for a month and then you can scale back to about every 3 days. I use the cream every morning under my eyes. You use both around your eyes or anywhere you have wrinkles on your face. It works great and I love it.

The first rule of thumb for facial products is that the delicate skin around your eyes has different requirements then the rest of your face. Hence, you should always use a separate product around the orbital area. I've used Olay Pro-X Deep Wrinkle Cream on my face, and it did produce decent results. If you do like Olay's line of products, there are other creams and gels they make which specifically target problems around the eyes. In fact, you're not limited to the Pro-X line. Most Olay Eye Treatments effectively address issues concerning fine lines, puffiness and discoloration.

I use it on my whole face including eyes and neck. Also I use Q Therapy eye cream on my eye lids and under them. I have had no problems.Thank you!

I use the cream for my face and neck. I've found for under my eyes I get better results from a good eye serum. Also, love the feeling of a serum
