The answer, aye to the eye cream!
Seriously, the skin around the eye is much thinner than the skin on the rest of your face. There are not as many sebaceous glands in that thin skin. If your cream is too rich it can cause your eye area to become puffy. Eye creams and gels are best as they formulated to treat this tender area.
