How to apply eye lifting cream?

Is the padding/tapping method still considered useful? I mean, they used to advice you to not massage but tap the cream into your skin, hitting softly with your fingertips, as if you were playing the piano.





On the package of the cream it says you should just massage it ';outward';. But which way is out? From your nose toward your hair?





So padding or massage?

use your ring finger to lightly pat the eye cream under the eye starting at the inner corner near your nose and moving towards your hair. the skin around your eye area is thin and delicate. as such, massaging will pull the skin.How to apply eye lifting cream?
padding/tapping method is still used or recommended. if your using the massage outward recommended by the makers than i think that would be a good idea and outward would be from nose to hair. its a method used to prevent wrinkles i think.
I use an eye cream day and night. I never massage or rub outward. I pat it underneath the eye just like you said --- like hitting softly with your fingertips. Usually from the corner of eye to outside of eye.
