Top 3 pregnancy-safe eye creams

Who doesn’t feel like a sleep-walking version of themselves during that first trimester of pregnancy? Is zombie-chic a thing? And then again in the third trimester, when your growing belly and shrinking bladder prevent any sort of comfy sleep. Spoiler alert: it’s all preparing you for the throes of new motherhood. We can’t speak for everyone, but we felt like our under eye bags rivaled the ones we were carrying out of Buy Buy Baby while in nesting mode. There may not be any magic eye creams that can completely undo the damage of pregnancy exhaustion, but thankfully there are a few products that we felt significantly reduced the telltale signs. These following little saviors made our list of the 3 best pregnancy-safe eye creams, with their potent but clean formulas aiding in the reduction of lines, puffiness, and under-eye circles (oh my!). 

 

We curated this pregnancy bundle to enhance your nightly routines! So after you’ve applied your pregnancy-safe eye cream, slip into these cozy maternity/postpartum pjs, massage away any soreness with the wooden massager and 8 Sheep Organics sleepy lotion, sip a nausea-relief tea, and read up on helpful Pregnancy Hacks!

The rollerball may feel slightly less luxurious than dipping your fingertips into a beautiful little jar, but the upside is a mess-free application and no funky scents to contend with. Not to mention the roller is actually rose quartz, which is equal parts chic and powerful. Take that non-toxic eye cream pots! Better still, we felt that the oil gave an instant pick me up in the eye area, so its portability comes in quite handy for a quick refresh on the go…which we could all use, even when we’re not battling morning sickness. 

Indie Lee Restorative Eye Cream

Why we love it:

 This luxurious eye cream from the super clean beauty brand Indie Lee is another great contender as a go-to eye cream to use during pregnancy. Ingredients like conditioning seaweed extract and licorice root promote a brighter, plumper, more moisturized under eye area. Indie Lee products, including this eye cream, are formulated without 1,300+ Banned Ingredients, including: Parabens, Mineral Oil, Sulfate-based Detergents, Synthetic Fragrance, Petroleum-based Ingredients, Phthalates, Phenoxyethanol, Formaldehyde and GMO Ingredients.

Tatcha The Silk Peony Melting Eye Cream

Why we love it:

We love this eye cream from Tatcha because of how rich and moisturizing it feels, while somehow still maintaining a texture that allows the product to glide on smoothly, easily melting into the under eye area. We usually use it at night in a thick layer like a mask, but because it leaves behind an almost pearlescent finish that blurs fine lines, it would be really pretty under makeup too! Especially to combat any dryness or crackiness that develops during the day. It’s formulated without mineral oil, synthetic fragrances, sulfate detergents, parabens, urea, DEA, TEA, or phthalates.
