I'm interested in purchasing Skin Biology products for the eyes. I have one wrinkle under my eye that bothers me to know end, especially when I put on concealer because it just settles in that one wrinkle. Anyway, when I look on the website it looks like it could be the miracle I need for this wrinkle. Has any one completely gotten rid of undereye wrinkles with Skin Biology products??? thanks - Melissa |

To tell you the truth- I don't know...
I think I see some improvement in the lines, but very minimal. But, my guy friend has commented that he sees a difference in my skin: He describes it as 'red, angry, irritated".  |

I had the reverse effect...severe damage under my eyes caused by CPs that took almost a year to go away. Do a search and you will see that this is very common...proceed with caution! |

bethany, How would you describe this damage?
I've been using CP's for almost 2 years. Once during these 2 years I decided to stop using them (after hearing all the scary stories) and bought lots of expensive creams instead. I went 3 months without CPs and my perfectly firm skin started to lose its firmness
I went back to them immediately. No more experiments like that.
One important lesson : start slow! very slow. I think that's the mistake most people do (including me), they want immediate results and move from one strength to another without adding oils or water. So be careful! Another caution, is that you cannot use any other creams containing Vit C at the same time. |

CPs were GREAT for me on my eyes! The most noticable improvements were there.
The skin on my upper lids had started to sag quite a bit in my 40's. It had started to touch my eyelashes and the skin would drag as I applied eye makeup w/ a sponge applicator. It also had a very crepey texture to it.
This all improved with the use of CPs!
I started w/ the GHK serum (undiluted). I used that for a month and could see improvements in that time. The skin tightened up - it actually pulled away from the eyelashes so I could see some shadow on the lid! The texture also improved and smoothed out quite a bit. Also - there was less drag as I applied eye shadow.
I continued w/ CPs by moving on to the Night Eyes Primier and then the regular Night Eyes. I would see some 'uglies' as I moved on to the stronger CPs (loosening), but then I would back off for a day or so and everything would be fine.
I've been using CPs for over a year now. Definitely improvements here. But, I haven't noticed as much w/ the under eye as w/ the upper. |

Scary...
I have been using SuperCop intermittently on my entire face (including under the eyes). I started with the low strength CP but I did not see any results so I went to the superCoP.
I have not seen any bad results but I cannot say that I have seen any good ones, either. Maybe it is because I don't really use it that much (I use it sometimes at night when I am not using my Obagi Retin A combo; or I use it in the morning when I am not using my C serum).
I am actually thinking now that it is a waste of money. |

I started very slowly with the Neutrogena product (super weak!), and worked up to the weakest GHK serum from SB (NO strong stuff at all). Within 6 months I developed HORRID cross-hatched lines under my eyes that aged me 10 years. Toby had the identical reaction.
No CPs under my eyes again, EVER. YMMV of course! |

I had these lines too sometimes! When I switched from Super CP Serum (strong) to Super Cop (very strong), so I went back to Protect and Restore (moderate) and everything went back to normal.
Gotta read that thread, see what the CP experts say
One might not see resalts from CPs because they use it once a day since they also want to get the effects of Vit C which you have to use 12 hours apart from CP. That's what complicates things for me, you cannot use CP with too many creams at the same time. |
