Brand note
Peter Thomas Roth is a skincare brand that leans into high-concentration active ingredients and clinically-minded formulations, often recommended by dermatologists for specific concerns. The Potent-C Power Eye Cream is a standout: creators consistently call it the most effective eye product they've used for dark circles, with visible brightening after one use, though it's pricey and the formula can oxidize over time.
