you know I´ll agree with you cause I´m a huge Retin-A fan as well, along with suncreen and chemical peels.Originally Posted by Dragonfly /img/forum/go_quote.gif
Invest in 1) a good moisturizer with sunscreen - Apply this everywhere on your face, including around eyes. Where this during the daytime, hence the need for sunscreen.
Invest in Retin A, which you would apply in the evening. You can apply it quite close to the eyes.
The combination of these two products will:
1) protect your skin during the day
2) help to remove any wrinkles or lines already starting
I´ll use any thick eye cream at night, since I sometimes mix Retin-A in it for around my eyes. I like Clinique´s all about eyes in the rich formula, but I´m sure there are better eye creams out there. Or you can use a thicker night cream under your eyes.Originally Posted by purple.haze /img/forum/go_quote.gif
If anyone has recommendations for eye creams to target dark circles and wrinkles, please let me know. I have really dark circles so I tend to cake on my under eye concealers a bit, but sometimes this causes the area to get cakey, I also feel this dries out my eye area so if there are any extra hydrating eye creams, I'd love to try it.
Dragonfly and Andi, you guys mentioned Retin-A, which eye creams do you use? =)
Actually I remember watching some tv show that was comparing eye creams. They took about 100 people and had them testing out various creams. What they found out was basic moisturizing actually does most of the job. I think one of the "creams" they tested was just regular (facial) moisturizer, but since they were told it's an eye cream, they concentrated their applications to the eye area. Some of the eye creams faired better or worse, but even basic moisturizing scored fairly high (not the highest, but most people still felt felt it was a significant improvement)....so...moisturizing and concentrating on the eye area is still important, but buying something that is specifically listed as an eye cream, not so much.Originally Posted by Dragonfly /img/forum/go_quote.gif
I don't use eye creams - complete waste of money in my opinion.
