I've been told that eye cream should be applied using your middle finger as it is more gentle than your index finger. Also, pat the cream in, don't rub it.

How to use eye cream
-
If you use too much it actually goes the other way and can cause puffiness. Only put it on at night, because it builds up into the pockets of fat. When they say, “use sparingly,†do so.
-
You only need a tiny amount and apply it around the eye socket ( feel the bony area around the eye). Always apply eye cream at night.
-
Always keep your eye cream in the fridge overnight (just make sure you don't eat it!) or somewhere very cold - it helps reduce any puffiness.
-
Apply a half a pea size amount of your eye cream/gel with your ring finger just above your cheekbones around your eyecontours with a gentle quick patting moition. Continue around up to the outside of your inner eyesockets and up on to the outside of your browbone.
-
Small amount (Half a pea kind) using little finger light strokes under the eye and a quick smear across the eyelid and an inward stroke on the crows feet area.
