Eye Cream

[Curegirl]

It's a sad day but it's time that I stop kidding myself. The sleep wrinkle that's under my eye? No longer just there when I'm sleeping. It's decided to get itself situated permanently. So I'm asking for any eye cream recommendations. Something with anti-aging stuff please. Ugh, officially an adult now I guess.

Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair - not the most moisturizing, but chock full 'o' retinol. Use over or under an additional moisturizer if you're dry, (under an SPF moisturizer for day) and start slow or you'll get red, irritated skin.

I've just picked up something from the hippy-dippy granola-nutty health food store. It's a night cream and holy shit does that moisturize. I'm usually a little dry and we live in an area that only exacerbates the dryness. I don't typically like heavier creams because they always make me feel like a grease ball, but this crap really absorbs well. I think the name is "Mill Creek Organics".

I'm totally putting a shout out for my little sister's stuff. It is wonderful and made with natural ingredients.

Well, close -- it's "Mill Creek Botanicals Elastin Cream".

Oh, thanks guys! MsSassy, does it make your skin peel? I'm scared of retinols...

Kris, your sister's stuff looks great! I'm going to order some stuff tonight...and look at your soaps! Which would you recommend for super sensitive skin?

DD, do you use it on your whole face or just the eye area? The crows feet area is peeling for me on the left eye for some reason

I've never had skin peeling. Occasional redness and dryness if I use too much too quickly. But I've also found that it takes care of acne, too, and is the most effective thing I've tried for dark spots. These days, I'm mostly using organic oils for my skin care, but I will probably use the Neutrogena again when I want to switch it up.

It's super thick, so I mix it with a lighter weight moisturizer (Bare Minerals) and apply to my entire face, neck, and décolleté after showering in the morning. I use it full strength at night on my face and around my eyes. It's very gentle.

The goat milk and honey would be the best choice. There are only smaller sample sizes available in that variety.

As for the lotions and potions, my sister will give the best advice. Also, she will custom make something for you if you ask.

I would suggest skipping any sort of fragrance in any product if you have sensitive skin.

Thanks Kris! I emailed your sister a little earlier

I swear by La Mer but it is expensive as hell. But it's my face. So whatever, I'll pay it.

Agreed. Love me some La Mer eye cream, face cream, serum, etc. It's a great line.

[Curegirl]

I wish that was in my budget! I've heard only good things about La Mer.

Reviving an old thread. Are there any miracle eye creams for puffiness? I've had puffy eyes (under eye) my whole life. Now I'm pushing 40 so adding dark circles and wrinkles due to old age. It's not pretty. Suggestions?

I've had good luck with Good Morning eye serum by Elizabeth Arden. But for the most part, a good concealer is key.
