Is it just me or does anyone else feel like a Sherpa (carrying these heavy bags under your eyes)? Sure there is some hereditary mixed in which makes it harder to get rid of them, but there has to be something to do.
I am working with StriVectin and just started using their new eye cream. While the full results take up to 8 weeks, I am really excited to see how it goes. I am wondering if anyone has any experience with the new StriVectin-SD line.
What are your thoughts? What do you do to help your constant carry-on luggage? |

No experience with the Srivectin, but I love the title of your thread. It gave me a good laugh! |

Hah, it seemed like such a fitting title. Believe me, if you saw what I'm packing you would agree!
What type of eye products do you use? |

StriVectin eye cream doesn't work based on my experience. |

Neither Strivectin nor Eye Tuck had worked for me (nor did many other products that I had tried over the years).
Right now I use Seachi oil and a cream by Tonya Zavasta (from beautifulonraw) and it seems to be much much better.

LOL. I love your sense of humor! I don't have bags, but I have lines. I am using MyFaceWorks eye masks twice a week and Perfect Complexion Ha Soy Lift under my eyes and these both are working really well for me. I am definitely seeing a reduction in the fine lines. |

@sigma and @azumma-
When did you use StriVectin? There is a new formula with patented NIA-114. You may get a better response.
An a little update. Bags are still here, but it is still early days! It could just be mind games, but I think it is working. |

I did use Strivectin several years ago. So the new formula with NIA-114 is effective??
I am not sure...I am planing to use the product - from easy eye solution (instant eye tuck and dark circle Treatment). I saw a lot of good comments on this product in the EDS forum. |

Why not use one product on one eye and a different one on the other, then compare after a few months? That's the only good way to judge, in my opinion. I did that with LaRoche Posay Active C and another cream, whose name escapes me. Courtney Cox was a shill for them for a while. You needed a prescription. Maybe someone will remember. I don't think I've seen it advertised in a long time so maybe everyone wised up that it did nothing! I used the Active C happily for a few years until I started using SkinBiology's copper peptides. I'm giving the peptides till next May, when it will have been two years, before deciding to switch back to some type of Vitamin C serum.
If your bags are due to fat under the skin and/or loose skin, surgery is the only answer. |

No fatty bags for me, SoftSkin, just the usual mix of hereditary and poor sleep.
@Azumma, Yea the NIA-114 (Niacin) is fantastic and something that only StriVectin has. After years of research they with skin cancer prevention they patented the formula.
In a nutshell, the niacin goes through the top/fatty layer of the skin and goes all the way down the different layers and helps to rebuild, reduce bags and help diffuse those raccoon looking eyes. For the actual science, check out their website.
I am about a week in using the eye concentrate and things are going well. Will definitely keep everyone up to date.
Also, if you are interested in trying a sample sign up as a StriVectin VIP and you could win a free sample of the Eye Concentrate, plus a chance to go to LA for the Reinvention Convention. |

Hi! I use Easy Eye Solutions and although helped with my darkcircles the bags are still there. I was so excited first. I really thought I have found something that would get rid of them.
And now I started having small fine lines around my eyes that stay there for a while after laughing. ANd I“m only turning 29!
RileyGirl does EDS carries MyFaceWorks eye masks? I“ve been trying to find them. Maybe I“m not looking properly?
