If you can put up with the stickiness then yes you could. The only way it'll 'soften' the lines is by drawing moisture from the air onto the skin because honey is a humectant, and so it softens the lines by moisturizing the area, nothing more.
I've always wondered about oils around the eyes, I'm not sure if the molecules are small enough to penetrate pores, not all oils are readily absorbed into the skin.

If you really want to ward off the wrinklies I'd try retinoids, you can start with OTC retinoids which are a bit gentler than Rx retinoids. Slowly introduce them into your skincare regimen and be patient. Retinoid is the only thing proven to prevent and treat wrinkled, photodamaged skin. HTH!

Thanks, hmm i 'll look for the retinoid cream, it peels your skin i think? i've tried the vitamin e, i found this firming, and i want to try the honey too. Could scrubing (gently) around the eyes with sugar do something i wonder..?

I don't think honey is going to do anything to diminish wrinkles. Like a previous poster stated it will moisturize but that's about it. I can't see how the skin could absorb it.

I am using the Nivea Visage Q10 Advanced Eye Cream. It is very hydrating to my eye area. I think I can see a very small improvement in the area as well. I've been using it for about two months.

I agree with Katnahat, your eye area is sensitive and IMO i'd be cautious with choosing a product.

I've never heard of using honey, but I know alot of ladies on here like grapeseed oil. You can get it in any grocery store or I found mine in a smaller bottle in a GNC.

Another one to try might be Coconut oil. Check out this thread.
