Why choose an anti-aging product specifically for the eye area?
Lierac Premium La Crème Regard is the eye contour treatment from Premium, Lierac’s comprehensive anti-aging line. It comes in the form of a balm with a very rich texture, packaged in a glass jar, that melts upon contact with the skin and is easy to massage in. The skin around the eyes is thinner than the skin on the rest of the face and has few sebaceous glands: fine lines, dryness, and loss of radiance often appear there first, and facial expressions constantly put strain on it. That’s why it deserves specific care, in addition to anti-aging facial treatments.
The formula combines yellow gentian root extract (Gentiana Lutea)—which the brand claims is 100% natural—with niacinamide, the form of vitamin B3 used in cosmetics, as well as extracts of baobab seeds, houseleek, and white sandalwood. When applied using the massage techniques recommended by the brand, the balm smooths the eye area. It targets all the signs that appear around the eyes over time: wrinkles and fine lines, puffiness, dark circles, dullness, and dryness.
Its rich texture reduces the appearance of puffiness and dark circles. Pearlescent particles blended into the cream subtly illuminate the eye area and give the eyes a more rested appearance. Its base combines shea butter, jojoba esters, and sunflower wax with glycerin and adenosine. According to the brand, the formula contains 95% naturally derived ingredients.
This balm is ideal for eyes that show signs of fatigue at the end of the day, after long hours in front of a screen, or when the cold, wind, and fall heating dry out the delicate skin of the eyelids. Its rich texture is particularly well-suited for evening skincare, when the skin is free of makeup, and the accompanying massage becomes a brief ritual before bedtime. It naturally fits into an established premium skincare routine.
Apply this rich balm to skin that has been thoroughly cleansed of makeup. We recommend removing your eye makeup in the evening with La Roche-Posay Toleriane Respectissime Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover before applying La Crème Regard: its oil-based formula dissolves mascara and waterproof eyeshadow without rubbing the eyelids, then the Lierac balm takes over on clean skin, where it massages in more easily and doesn’t mix with makeup residue.
How do you apply La Crème Regard around the eyes?
Directions for Use
Apply morning and evening to the eye area, at the end of your skincare routine, after your serum and moisturizer: Apply the balm to the inner corner of the eye, glide it under the eye toward the temple, then repeat the same motion along the brow bone, above the eye, three times in a row before moving on to the other eye. Finish by gently patting with your fingertips, from the inner corner of the eye toward the temple, then under the eyebrow, from the inner corner toward the temple.
Precautions
- For external use only, on the eye area. Apply to the bone surrounding the eye, avoiding the lash line and the edges of the eyelids: due to skin warmth and blinking, cream applied too close may migrate into the eye.
- Avoid direct contact with the eyes. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Contact lens wearers: Wash your hands thoroughly after application before handling your lenses. If you experience discomfort, stinging, or blurred vision, remove your lenses and rinse your eyes with clean water.
- Do not apply to an irritated, red, swollen, or damaged eyelid.
- Discontinue use if redness, stinging, itching, or swelling occurs after application, and consult a pharmacist or doctor.
- Persistent swelling of the eyelid (especially on one side), a red, painful, or watery eye, or decreased vision require medical attention: this cosmetic product does not treat these conditions.
- Do not use if you have a known allergy to any of the ingredients.
- Apply the balm with a clean, dry finger, and close the jar tightly after each use.
- Store away from heat and light. Keep out of reach of children.

Our Expert Advice on Eye Contour Care
An eye contour treatment addresses the appearance of the skin, not the underlying cause of all dark circles. Brown dark circles caused by genetics, sunken dark circles related to facial structure, or established fatty bags will show little improvement with any cream, regardless of the product. Results are best assessed after several weeks of regular use and based on the skin’s condition: smoother, more radiant, and less prone to dryness. Massage is part of the routine, provided it remains gentle: glide and tap lightly—never pull on the skin.
The eye area is also the first to show signs of sun damage and squint lines. Sunglasses with UV filters and sunscreen on the rest of the face complement this skincare routine better than an extra layer of cream. And if an eyelid becomes swollen, red, or itchy, our safety precautions take precedence over any desire to continue the treatment.
FAQ
Can I apply eye makeup after using Lierac Premium La Crème Regard?
Yes. The rich balm takes a few minutes to absorb before applying concealer or eyeshadow. A rice-grain-sized amount for each eye is sufficient: if used in excess, it leaves a slight film that causes makeup to slide off and may leave fine residue in the corner of the eye.
Can I use Lierac Premium La Crème Regard if I have sensitive eyes?
The brand states that it is suitable for sensitive eyes. The formula is fragrance-free and has been tested under dermatological and ophthalmological supervision; however, these tests do not exempt you from taking standard precautions when applying products around the eyes.
Can I apply Lierac Premium La Crème Regard in the morning under my sunscreen?
Yes. The eye cream should be applied before sunscreen, which remains the final step in your morning routine. Allowing the balm to absorb for a few minutes before applying the sunscreen prevents the two textures from rolling off each other.
