Forbes just tapped our Co-Founder and Co-CEO Stephi Cohen for her go-to fix for under-eye puffiness, and the answer is one we've believed in for a long time: the BeautyRx Gentle Exfoliating Eye Cream.
For their roundup on the best eye creams for puffiness, Forbes asked female founders, CEOs, and dermatologists what's actually in their routine. Stephi's pick stood apart from the usual heavy, hydration-only formulas. The Gentle Exfoliating Eye Cream uses glycolic acid to gently clear away dead skin cells, paired with BeautyRx's proprietary Hexatensity peptide complex to firm and tighten the delicate skin around the eyes — a different approach than the thick, purely moisturizing creams that dominate most "puffiness" roundups.
As Stephi told Forbes, the formula "absorbs beautifully without feeling greasy and layers seamlessly under concealer or makeup without pilling." It's also built specifically for the thinner, more sensitive skin around the eyes, so it stays effective without being harsh enough for daily use.
This is one we carry for exactly that reason. It's part of the BeautyRx line by Dr. Neal Schultz — the same dermatologist behind the BeautyRx Peel Bar available at Blushington — which means the eye cream is built on the same exfoliation science, just formulated for a more delicate area.
A few reasons it's worth adding to your routine:
- Glycolic acid, adjusted for the eye area. Regular exfoliation without the harshness that most acids bring to thinner skin.
- Targets puffiness specifically, not just dryness. The Hexatensity peptide complex is built to firm and tighten, not just hydrate.
- Makeup-ready. Absorbs fully enough to sit under concealer without pilling — useful whether you're headed to work or getting ready for an event.
If puffiness is the thing you notice first in the mirror, this is the product our own cofounder reaches for — and one you can pick up at Blushington.
