Well i guess i’m definitely going to have to get me a sample of that to try. My left eye seems to be the one carrying more of the baggage between to two. . .so as longs as I can even it out. . .then i’ll be good. hahah

I’m just using the Garnier rolling on thing for about a month now and I see some de-blackness of the eye cause I don’t seem to use as much concealer under my eyes now. But I bet this product will help out depuffing eyes a lot! The girl earlier who mentioned Vichy, I think I’m gonna try that one! At shoppers this girl said Vichy is a really good brand, it’s more medicinal kind of cosmetic and it’s under Lancome but more affordable in a sense? I have this bi-white face cleanser from Vichy supposed to even out the pigments of my skin and it seems to be working (and its tested on Asian skin btw!) Let me know how this one goes later on!! =)

i’ve got the worst eye bags, but also the worst skin allergies.. I’ve tried two eyecreams, philosophy eye hope and clinique. They both made my skin red, itchy, flaky, peely and worse than before. The puffiness went away with clinique, but it wasn’t worth the side effects…I’ve just given up on eye creams now..

Most eye creams do one of three things: 1. attempt to de-puff; 2. attempt to de-shadow (part of which is created by puffiness, part of which is blue/gray colouring under eyes); and/or 3. attempt to de-wrinkle the sensitive, sometimes crepey skin under eyes.

You’re too young to be crepey, and likely too young to have discolouration, but you can have eye bags from birth, pretty much. Some people have them because bags are in their genes, some because of allergies/irritation, and others because they’ve had not enough sleep, too much salt or alcohol, etc. (usually it’s a combination of the two. :)

I had eye bags when I was little, and I still get them often now (especially in the morning, or during allergy season.) I’ve used everything under the sun to try and get rid of them (Origins No Puffery, the MAC eye cream with caffeine, Clinique All About Eyes, Benefit’s de-puffer with the wand, Caudalie Eye and Lip, Fresh Lotus Eye Gel, the Garnier eye roller thingy, Bliss Triple Oxygen Eye Mask, and stuff from Dr. Hauschka, Lancome, Kiehls, Aveda, Clarins, Estee Lauder, Roc, La Roche Posay… you name it.)

Here’s what works, in my experience: multiple splashes of cold water first thing in the morning, a Vichy gel roll-on de-puffer with vitamin C, followed up with a peptide + retinol cream (using one by Roc right now.) This hits every major point that needs hitting. Also, cut down on salt, drink two glasses of water for every drink of alcohol in your day, and meticulously remove every speck of eye makeup before you go to sleep at night.

How’s that for an essay? :)

Hey, so my friend has been using a product from Arbonne to target her eyebags and apparently it works really well. She has noticed results after 2 days of use. The NutriMinC Re REpair, corrective eye creme, it’s in the anti-aging line but we’re aging constantly anyways. Let me know if you want more info. =)

Unfortunately, I have BIG bags too.
I never did, until I became addicted to reading blogs, thus staying up late.
Ive been too lazy to do anything about it though.. I just cover them up with good ol’ concealer.

But, this product sure sounds like the cure. I will definitely check it out next time Im at Sephora.
