what can i do about the bags under my eyes? please read first!?
ok so im 13, and my doctor thinks i have fibromayalgia(if i explained everything it would littereally be 15 pages long lol). becuase of that, it makes me not ble to sleep even if i dont know im not sleeping well, something about not getting into a deep-wave sleep or something.
anyway, i have dark bags under my eyes. not really puffiness, but like dark and the skin like sags and stuff.
what can i do about this? i’ve been trying the garnier fructis caffeine eye roll-on, and it helps a little, but i still have the bags a lot. what else can i do? obviously, being 13, not many people my age have bags like me. people ask me why i have them, and its really annoying.
what can i do? please help!
and ive tried concealer, foundation, the garnier fructis thing, and ya. do you know any eye creams for bags, not so much for puffiness? please tell me if you do!
try anew retroactive plus repair eye serum it is made for younger woman and it works great and you only have to apply it twice a day so its real easy to use

I have dark brown skin (Kind of the colour of a penny… ) and dark brown eyes, at the moment my hair is a very very dark brown – almost black, so I will bleach my hair. I don’t want to dye the whole lot, I might do dip dye or dye just parts of my hair
My colour options are:
Blue:
In your opinion which of these three will look best? and if you have any other colour recommendations that would be cool too I don’t particularly want pink or red hair though.
This would help me a lot, so thanks in advance
Purple, it’s dark like your skin tone and looks good with brown eyes.

Would you pay €125 for an eye cream?I did.Read my review….?
I got a few gift vouchers ,for my birthday ,for my favourite department store so decided to use them to buy a high end eye cream,Estee Lauder,Re-Nutriv,ultimate youth eye cream.It claims it reduces wrinkles etc and gives you back a youthful look that your friends will be envious of.Well my friends didn’t notice any difference and I didn’t mention I paid €125 for an eye cream (for fear of being sectioned).I did not notice any difference and I was hoping this cream would fade some pigmentation around my eye area.I used it religiosly morning and night for 5 months and I developed a hard skin coloured spot near my eye which I had since I started using the cream.Well I stopped using the cream a week ago and the spot fell off this morning.So maybe it was the eye cream? So would you spend a lot of money on a ‘wonder’ cream? I am sticking to cheaper versions from now on.
you do generally get what you pay for with beauty products, altho 125 is a lot. maybe you were using too much for each application and this caused a build up in a pore which was the spot that fell off.
most high end companies do a more basic moisturiser as well, which will be very good although probably won’t be anti ageing or resurfacing.
if you’re hoping to fade pigmentation, it may be worth looking into the Elemis Tri-Enzyme range as they are designed for this – or going to a salon and having one of the facials first – you can feel them working and feel a noticeable tightness afterwards.
Even if you stick to high street brands I would not go for the cheapest of the cheap as their generally pretty crappy and not even worth applying. L’Oreal are quite good and not too pricey.
I use Elemis products as i find them very effective. If i don’t have the money i use L’Oreal,
so i wanna know what are the best products for sensitive skin and stuff that actually works
what is the best…
-Cleanser
-Toner
-Moisturizer ( I heard that they should be two, one for morning and other for the night. the morning moisturizer should have SPF and the night moisturizer should have nutrients for the skin and stuff)
-Weekly scrub
-eye cream
Thank You sooo much for your help )
If you have sensitive skin, to be honest you want to put as little stuff on your face as possible. My friend who is a dermatologist said once if she had it her way ‘you shouldn’t put anything on your skin at all’. A lot of top beauticians also say toner is a money drain and washing your face with cool water after cleanser works just as well!
As for cleanser I use the Simple brand. Its not that expensive and doesn’t sting like some cleansers. some cleansers have alcohol in them which is a b*tch on sensitive skin.
For moisturizers you only really need one, having a spf is a bonus. Even though companies claim this night moisturizer has vitamin blah blah blah, it doesn’t actually get absorbed into the skin! So when picking a moisturizer, try for a spf and one that’s light so it won’t clog your skin and you can wear it to bed after you’ve washed your face etc.
weekly scrub? St ives apricot invigorating scrub is my no.1 and a lot of other peoples number one for a reason! Its not that expensive doesn’t give that nasty burning sensation when you exfoliate and it almost seems to keep the skin moisturized a bit too, plus the effects are immediate and skin looks STUNNING ^^
As for eye cream this really depends on your age. Remember if you have sensitive skin you don’t wanna be packing it on, or it actually makes skin worse off. When you’re younger just moisturize around your eyes with your daily moisturizer as it will do just as well. Maybe when you start to mature you can use eye creams especially made for eyes and holding back the wrinkles a bit.
just remember beauty companies are there to make money out of us, so only buy the things that are necessary and do what they say on the tin. Skin isn’t really meant to take a whole load of chemicals on it, so keep it simple and gorgeous x
Im going to invest in good make-up and want to get foundation, under eye concealer, powder and blusher. Which one should I go for? The MAC counters always manic and bobbi brown were nice but kept trying hard sell, but I know what I want so don’t need the highlighter, eye cream etc. just a magic pen or something.
Anyway, any help or insight would be much appreciated.

Well Nars has the best blushes out their , so I would get a blush from them, like their ever popular shade Orgasm, of you like it. Bobbi Browns creamy Concealer kit is a really good concealer for under your eyes.And for foundation their pressed powder or liquid foundation. Nara lip glosses are also good
Ones to check out!
Vitamin C & Caffeine are 2 PROVEN ingredients in beauty products… Will my own lotion do the same as purchased?
I can’t afford the high-end Vitamin C lotions that are supposed to help your skin and tighten the skin under your eyes… I know that most under eye creams that do any good at all contain caffeine…
If I take a pill of vitamin C and grind it up with half a caffeine pill (100mg) and mix that in a half a small shot glass of lotion such as Clean & Clear Dual Action Moisturizer… will it be anything like the extremely expensive Vitamin C and Caffeine laced products you buy in department stores?
I have learned that caffeine will make the lotion smell funny if you put it in the bottle and vitamin c evaporates so I would make up a new batch each time I used it to keep it fresh and potent.
I’m looking to firm up the under eye area and shrink pores made HUGE by the use of self tanning lotion that, apparently, doesn’t like me very much…
Thanks for ANY info you can provide!
Those ingredients may need to be encapsulated in liposomes somehow.
Vitamin C will not evaporate, but it will degrade on contact with any oxygen in the lotion introduced by mixing, and undergo a color change as a result.
I’ve used many clnique products before and I would just like to try some new ones. Here’s what I was thinking of….
*I need a new eye cream. I’m young but I have dark bags under my eyes. I don’t mind if it’s anti-aging as I squinted a lot when I was younger due to my really bad eyes. What’s a good one & what should I stay away from?
*I need a new powder as well. I have acne-prone skin and pores I would like to hide. I LOVE their superfit liquid makeup if that helps any! I don’t use it now though because I have a neutrogena foundation that I’m using up for winter before a buy a darker color…. What’s good & what’s not?
*How are their eyebrow products and eyeliners?
*And one more thing… Does anyone know how well their men’s line works? I was thinking about picking something up for my boyfried.
Thank you!
Eye Cream – I would suggest the All About Eyes; its lightweight, moisturizing and does not smell. However this cream works more for puffiness than dark circles. Not completely sure about the ‘All About Eyes Rich’ or ‘Clinique Repairwear Intensive Eye Cream’ products but no harm in trying samples.
Pressed Powder – I would suggest the ‘Almost Powder SPF 15′ foundation; non-drying, buildable coverage, natural finish, lightweight finish. VERY good for acne-prone skin.
Eye Products – Not completely in the know about their eyebrow products but I do love the ‘Brush-On Cream Liner. The colors are creamy, very rich and pigmented with great staying power and no smudging. Fabulous for everyday use.
I’m in my 20s and need a good eye cream. Which ones do you recommend?
I’m in my 20s and I need a good eye cream to prevent wrinkles and lines in the long run. Most of the creams I’ve seen are for women who already have wrinkles, not to prevent them.
Dita, everyone will give you a different response. This is what has worked for me.
1 – drink min. of 3 glasses of water daily to keep skin hydrated.
2 – get your normal sleep too little or too much will give you eye puffiness etc.
3 – the eye cream I use is Extreme Eye Rescue by Isabella Pelle. I apply it twice daily. In the morning after I wash my face, and at night after I shower. Hope this helps you. Hey I’m also in my early 20′s.
Hello,
I am 29 but my skin looks like I am much younger.
I recently decided to buy some eye cream for my dark circles and why not, also to prevent crow’s feet.
I just bought WRINKLE DE-CREASE COLLAGEN FILLER EYE ILLUMINATOR, because it sounded good but also because was one of the most affordable creams.
I got home and tried it on my hand and I feel like the texture is too thick …. I usually buy the very light ones for younger girls, but I couldn’t find anything else at CVS.
I searched and I picked this one because it says it should reduce eye circles (that I have always had and usually cover with make up) and reduces wrinkles, that I don’t really have …
What should I do?
Do you know of any other cream I could use instead of this one? Something for younger girls, less … geasy? I feel it’s still too greasy/thick for me …
Any suggestions?
first, take it back and tell them it didnt do what was advertised. people do take makeup back….
Skin Care – Etude House, Dead sea Spa Magik, Aloe Cream, Collagen Firming Eye Cream
I’ve read rave reviews about this cream on the internet to treat the undereye area. It is also supposed to get rid of milia but I can see that in its ingredients, it contains oils. How can it get rid of milia if it contains oils?
Please give suggestions! Cheap but good eye creams?
I’m going to make my own cream eye shadow, because I want glitter and a certain color. Please don’t tell me to just go buy one, because that is not what I want to do. So do you know any eye creams to just use on the eyelids and mix with pigments that are good but cheap? I’m looking for creams $6 and under.
body shop products are good and at affordable prices
Neutrogena Radiance Boost eye cream – did it work for you? Alternative products?
I’m a 21 year old male, so currently not worrying about bags so much as dark circles around my eyes that I have had for years and are not getting any better due to my education.
I was in the skin care aisle and saw the product and decided to buy it in the hopes of lightening up the area under my eyes and general puffiness (baggy eyes and puffy eyes are two different things, I know).
Have you used it? What did you think? Is there another product that works better?
Thanks
I am certified beauty consultant and I can recommend you some good products with 100% satisfaction guarantee or your money back!! Email me at megdhanusi@yahoo.com with this same question again and I will be happy to give you name of products, some life style recommendations and web site you may purchase the products from.

I suggest you do a Google “Strivectin SD eye cream: SKIN DEEP DATABASE” it’s the world’s largest database of virtually every skincare, every cosmetic and every skin treatment product.
Many of them have been found to contain toxic substances and/or carcinogens, fragrances or contaminants that can seriously sicken skin and threaten health and Strivectin SD eye cream was one of them. The Database allows you to find safer alternate brands that were found to be safer with no toxic, no harming.ingredients
Check out each product and/or treatment that you currently use and see how they rate and if found to have toxic and harming ingredients seek alternative safer ones.
We should all be protesting that manufacturers are allowed to put poisonous and health harming substances in these products.
Product Rave: Strivectin-SD Eye Concentrate for Wrinkles
Hi there. I have really sensitive skin. Like if I change products, try to get a facial or attempt to exfoliate, I get a red patch with little bumps within 24 hours. I then have to go to the doctor to get a ointment to make it go away or it’s there for a year. It’s nuts. Regardless, I found Dr. Hauschka’s line which is all natural blah blah and it’s working well. However, after 5 years of using the under eye balm, I suddenly am having a reaction. Don’t know if they changed the formula or what but it’s just not cutting it anymore. So now I’m looking for some suggestions on alternative eye creams for sensitive skin. I always have used it more preventively…I don’t have wrinkles to puff up or dark circles fade so no need for anything harsh like retinol which will destroy me! I just like slathering on a thick cream to hopefully ward it off in the future! Thanks in advance!
You should try Artistry’s eye cream. All of their products are safe for people with sensitive skin. Their eye cream is awesome. If for some reason you decide you don’t really like it or you would have a reaction they will give you a full refund with no questions asked. You can’t buy it in stores but you can get it at http://www.adrennan.qhealthbeauty.com You can read all the info about it and see if it’s what you are looking for and if it is you can buy it there as well. I hope this answered your question
my eye cream is stinging my eyes, what does this mean?
Hi all, I’m using an eye cream at the moment, it’s called “tony & tina herbal eye serum w/blue corn”. well the thing is when i’m using it, it seems to sting my eyes, and i’m abit worried that this might be abit off as i purchased it from somebody off ebay and have no real idea how long the person has had this for. I’m abit worried because i’m not to sure whether it is suppose to be stinging my eyes or not. If somebody has used this eye cream before, could you please let me know whether the same thing happened to you? I’m worried because no other eye cream i have used before has ever stung my eyes this much and it could also possibly mean that this cream is working, or is expired, but i really wouldn’t know. the stinging sensation is only a sting, it does not make my eyes red or anything serious.
hi there
well no i havn used it..but i don’t think any kind of eye cream is supposed to sting your eyes..eye creams are made with very careful ingredients because th skin underneath the eyes is extremely sensitive.maybe you are allergic to one of th ingredients in it,or maybe its expired.whatever th case is id suggest to stop using it.vichy does very good eye creams and they’re not very expensive.
hope this helped
take care :D
What is the best inexpensive under eye anti-wrinkle cream that really works in your opinion?

Natural Remedies for Dark Circles Under Eye Wrinkles Treatment
I’m only 22 and I’ve noticed that i’m getting wrinkles under my eyes!!! I have sensitive skin, and I need to find something that will be safe for my eyes. Any suggestions?
Are there banishing under-eye circles products that is makeup, something like Olay?
I know Olay products are targeted at women of 18+ but I wonder if there are other cream products that could reduce look of dark under eye circles for teens, and I don’t mean by using foundation/concealer/powder.
Don’t spend hundreds of dollars on any face lotion that says it will get rid of under eye bags. Because if they are hereditary (it runs in your family) then there is no other option to completely get rid of them than cosmetic surgery. But you can make it less noticeable with concealer.
When you read a label on a face lotion that says anything along the lines of “will get rid of under eye bags”, interpret it as “will make under eye bags less noticeable.” Because that is the truth. No lotion can get rid of them. Remember, no pain, no gain.
But if your under eye bags are not hereditary then maybe you are lacking vitamins, sleep or exercise. Try to get at least 6-8 hours of sleep. And I mean good quality sleep. So you will feel less tired in the morning. Sleep at the same time every night then get up at the same time every morning. Since your brain is trained to do things on a regular basis, you will find yourself feeling sleepy every night at the same time. And you will get up every morning at the same time without an alarm.
Eat a healthy diet. Eat more fruits and vegetables and a bit or milk. Try fruits like oranges, blueberries and blackberries. If you don’t eat properly then you may have less energy. Which will cause you to be lazy and create those under bag eyes. So with the eating, add in some exercise. This exercise can be walking around and listening to music. Or running/ jogging outside and listening to music. For at least 30 minutes. Or washing all the windows at home. Vacuuming one level of the house. Pushing the stroller around the mall.
Another thing I heard was that under eye bags can be caused by allergies. So ask your doctor about this. Or do your own investigation and see if they only appear when you’re doing something or near something. Then ask your doctor for some medicine for it or check out your local pharmacy/ drug store.
