It could be that you are using too much. Avocado eye cream is a relatively thicker texture product, if you use too much, it will be easy to push away the difficulty. It is recommended to use the right amount of eye cream, usually a grain of rice-sized amount is enough to spread around both eyes.
The method of application should be noted. Before applying the eye cream, you need to warm it up a little. You can rub your fingertips together gently to warm it up slightly. This will increase the spreadability and absorption of the eye cream, making it easier to push and spread evenly on the skin.
You can also try applying a toner or lotion to the skin around your eyes after cleansing your face. This will increase the moisturization of your skin, making it easier to push and absorb the eye cream.
Avocado eye creams may contain a higher concentration of nourishing ingredients, which can contribute to the inability to push it off and make it gooey. You can try mixing it with other lightweight eye creams to minimize the consistency. Alternatively, before applying the avocado eye cream, pour it onto your fingertips and gently apply it around your eyes with your fingertips, then pat it in with your fingertips until it is absorbed. This will help push the eye cream out better and distribute it more evenly on the skin.
If all of the above fails to solve the problem, you may want to consider switching to another eye cream with a lighter texture. Everyone's skin is different and has different needs for eye care products. Choosing an eye cream that suits your skin's needs is crucial.
The fact that Kiehl's Avocado Eye Cream doesn't push through and makes a mushy mess may be due to over-application, unpreparedness, and lack of moisturization. By using the right amount, warming it up and using it with other products, you can improve the problem of difficulty in pushing it away. If this does not solve the problem, try another eye cream with a lighter texture. Remember to choose the right product for your skin needs for eye care.
