HELP anyone!! 
I was born with eye bags and I may just die that way if I dont find the PERFECT product to instantly get rid of them.
Waking up to them for 30 years is more than enough I reckon! I have tried many things and just havent found anything. Can anyone put me out of my misery?
Thanks  |

Welcome Shadda 
I always had bags under my eyes for as long as I remember (thanks mum!). I tried every remedy known to man, but I hate to tell you, the only thing that will get rid of them permanently is surgery! I had my lower eyes done a year ago and FINALLY the bags are gone

Oh Shadda, I do feel for you. Thanks to my Dad I have always had BAGS.  I am 60 and decided I don't want any form of cosmetic surgery. Guess I would rather spend my money on doing things with my husband.
What I have found is that is extremely important that you keep the undereye area firm!!! You don't want those bags 20 years from now saggy and low. I can honestly say that although my eye area is not my best feature the area is firm and pretty much line free. This is what I suggest:
A firming eye cream
Vitamin C Serum
Sunsceen
Good diet and lots of water.
You are very young and might decide to have surgery for this area. Perhaps if I were 30 again that would be the route I would go.  I guess when I was in my thirties all the extra money went to my children.

What you are talking about is free (for me anyway)  . I was talking about traveling.  |

Thank you Anya. The honesty is refreshing. Most people keep telling me to try this and that. Dunno about surgery though..... Having teeth and babies pulled out of me is all the invasion I can handle
Winnie, thanks for the great, practical advice. Diet, water, vit C, firming eye cream all are 'doable' if someone would point me in the right direction of best products to try (NOT the diet & water thanks!!
Overall though, before then, I think i will stick to trying out the travel, 'doing' all those free things with the mister and spending on the kids!
Bless you.

EDS was giving out the 5 day sample of AlphaDerma Free. I don't know if they are still doing it. I would recommend AlphaDerma over mineral prep around your eye area. AlphaDerma has DMAE, Collagen and Elastin +++ It has really helped firm up my eye area. Just pat the Prep around your eye bone. After absorbing apply AlphaDerma. Just use a tad of each. Personally I think all you need is the AlphaDermaCE and Prep. BTW AlphaDerma has 5% C and an SPF of 15. A few eye exercises won't hurt either. If you only use the 5 day sample around your eye area it should last three weeks.

Thanks a lot Winnie.
I just joined this forum yesterday and i have to say its great! I am totally clueless about ALL this stuff. Just a wash, deo n go kind of girl.
I will most definitely try it and keep you posted.
P.S; I noted your interest in creative memories in your profile. Is it ok to email you pertaining that? I'd understand if you would rather not of course. |
