The 5 Best Vegan Eye Creams in 2022 | UK Edition 

You don’t have to be a beauty guru to know the importance of putting on eye cream.

It helps your under-eye area look youthful, healthy, and bright, even if you’re not getting enough sleep.

If you’re vegan, it can be a bit more confusing to find the perfect eye cream. You’re probably used to reading labels and making sure that your products are free of animal products, but when it comes to eye creams, there’s often no easy way to tell if they contain animal-derived ingredients.

That’s why we’ve created our list of The 5 Best Vegan Eye Creams in 2022. It’s our way of helping vegans out there find a product that they can trust.

So without further ado…Here are our top 5 picks:

  1. Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream: Best For Dark Circles & Puffiness

If you’re tired of people being able to tell when you haven’t slept, Balance Me’s award-winning wonder eye cream is an instant hit of hydration that’s sure to please.

This lightweight formula helps to reduce puffiness, dark circles, and swelling under the eyes and absorbs quickly without leaving greasy residue on your face.

The natural blend of Hyaluronic Acid, Arctic Cloudberry, Chamomile, Witch Hazel, Cucumber, Rosehip, and Carrot Oil strengthens the delicate skin around the eye area so it’s better able to protect itself against signs of ageing.

What more could you want from an eye cream?!

  1. YES TO Avocado Fragrance-free Daily Eye Cream: Best for Dry Skin 

Got dry skin? Say hello to your new eye cream!

When you’re looking for an eye cream, there are a few things you want: hydration, smoothing, and nourishment and that’s exactly what Yes To Avocado Daily Eye Cream delivers.

The formula is packed with minerals and avocado oil to hydrate and deeply moisturise your skin, while hyaluronic acid and glycerine help skin look hydrated and plump.

And since this product is made with 98% natural ingredients and no parabens or sulphates, you can rest assured that your skin is safe from any harmful chemicals.

  1. N-Spa Beauty Rituals Luminous Glow Eye Cream: Best for Brightening 

We’ve seen a lot of beauty products in our time, but we had never heard of the active ingredient in N-Spa Beauty Rituals Luminous Glow Eye Cream before. We did a little research, though, and it turns out ‘garden cress sprout extract’ is actually pretty magical.

Garden cress sprout extract activates the skin’s own detoxification system, protects it against environmental stressors, and even prevents visible signs of ageing. And that’s not all: it’s chock full of antioxidants and if you’re one to believe in the power of antioxidants (like us), then you’ll definitely want to add this product to your skincare routine ASAP.

It’s no wonder this product is getting amazing reviews from users and it definitely deserved a mention in our rundown of the best vegan eye creams!

  1. E.L.F. Holy Hydration! Eye Cream: Contains Hyaluronic Acid

We’re big fans of E.L.F, so their eye cream just had to make the list.

Their products are made from skin-loving ingredients you want, minus the toxins you don’t, all at amazing prices.

This lightweight formula is ideal for wearing under makeup to lock in moisture and is suitable for all skin types.

The biggest selling point? This eye cream is infused with Hyaluronic Acid and Peptides to deeply moisturise and hydrate the eye area while minimising dark circles. It leaves eyes looking refreshed and ready for whatever life has in store!

Important info: This product was formerly known as E.L.F.’s Illuminating Eye Cream (just in case you thought your fav eye cream wasn’t being sold anymore!)

  1. Dr.Konopka’s Regenerating Eye Cream: Best for reducing wrinkles 

We’re always on the lookout for innovative beauty products that deserve to be found, and this one’s a gem.

Dr Konopka’s age-defying, regenerating and moisturising eye cream uses angelica extract and angelica archangelica root water, an ingredient known for providing a long list of incredible health benefits.

The secret to eternal youth? It seems to be in this eye cream! When applied to the skin angelica actually slows down the natural ageing process and has also been proven to reduce swelling and puffiness!

The formula is also made with wild-harvested herbs and flowers as well as essential vitamins and minerals to nourish and gently repair the delicate skin around the eyes. It leaves skin feeling firm, tightened, and hydrated!

It’s also an absolute steal at under £4 a tube!

So there you have it. Five of the best vegan eye creams for you to choose from!

And just because these creams work so well doesn’t mean you should skip sleep—you need that rest!
