It’s Sun Awareness Week (11-17th May), and the eye area has been the missing chapter in the SPF conversation in Australia for years.
We’re the country with the highest skin cancer rates in the world. Two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70. And yet most face SPF tutorials skip straight past the eyelids - the thinnest, most delicate, most exposed skin on the entire face.
That’s the gap I started @drbenlahoodcosmetics to close. Not by replacing the dermatology conversation, but by adding the eye surgeon’s perspective to it.
A few things I didn’t have time to fit in the video:
When you’re choosing sunglasses, look for AS/NZS 1067 compliance and a category 2, 3 or 4 lens. Wraparound styles block significantly more peripheral UV than small frames. And cloud cover is not your friend - up to 80% of UV gets through.
Watch the reel for the five things I wish more people knew. Save for the next time someone asks why you wear sunnies on a cloudy day.

🏷️DrBenLaHood, Opthalmologist
Most people have a shelf full of skincare and still nothing specifically designed for the most delicate skin on their face.
Eyelid Defence was built to fix exactly that. Every ingredient chosen with purpose, every benefit earned. From a surgeon who knows this skin better than anyone.
It does a lot. And your eyelids have needed all of it for a long time.

Quick question: when did you last put anything on your actual eyelids?
Most people skip the area entirely. Either products sting, migrate into the eye, or there`s no clear advice on what`s safe to use there.
That`s exactly why @drbenlahood created Eyelid Defence. A moisturiser with SPF, formulated by an eye surgeon for the most delicate skin on your face - no stinging, no running.
The product you`ll actually use beats the one sitting in the cupboard.

Retinol has long been the gold standard for anti-ageing. But on eyelid skin, it is far too harsh. It irritates, it peels, and it has no place near your eyes.
Bakuchiol does everything retinol is celebrated for, without any of the side effects. It is the reason @drbenlahood chose it as a key ingredient in Eyelid Defence.
Your eyelids finally get the anti-ageing treatment they deserve. Without the sting.
