    Default dark eye bags grrr

    okay...so i have eye bags. i know everybody does but mine just seems so puffy under my eyes and that semi circular line is really starting to get on my tits.

    Iv stopped smoking- ages ago for ba - and if anything the fuckers have got worse! I drink loads of water, work out 4-5 times a week, eat veg, fruit etc. I try and get 7-8 hours a sleep a day which is good. But I dont even know where to start with under eye creams - i see them, the price and the massive range and think all i have to do is spend lots of money and pick the wrong freakin one and im still no better off!

    Has anyone had good experiences with treatments, any cream/tightening recommendations??

    Its so bugging, I'm 20 years old and feel haggered. yuk!

    You know, I've been battling these forever since I was about your age. Unfortunately, it's hereditary and, short of surgery, nothing works.

    Sounds like you are doing everything right but are just predisposed to getting them.

    I feel you on the wasting of money. I probably could have bought a vacation home with what I've spent in the last 20 years. I'm 40 now and I've learned to accept them. I just hide them as best as I can and go about my day.

    ^ yes, I think she's right. It's best to invest your $$$ in great makeup to cover them, instead of all the creams that claim to rid you of them.

    ^^link to a 3 page discussion on dark circles/bags.

    There are some creams out there that will help the situation, but mostly it's hereditary. If you are pre-disposed to having them, you can improve them slightly and use a great concealer.

    I am considering doing a quasi surgical procedure for this--i believe it is an injection of collagen. Yes, I will look into a bit further before I actually get my ass to a dr's office

    Ive had the same problem too! Bags and DARK circles under my eyes... I got plenty enough sleep, workout, eat a balanced diet, or take supplements...

    I went to the DR & he said it is probably my allergies.. Since the storm, mold , pollen, & other allergens have been crazy around new orleans, and I constantly have the sneezes or stuffy nose and sinus pressure... along with those lovely bags and dark circles... hot huh??

    I have really bad undereye bags, they aren't puffy, but they're dark and the only thing that helps me is a combination of:
    *proper hydration
    *pink based concealer
    *moisturizing eye cream (even though I have oily skin, my under eyes get very dry)

    an older stripper once recomended Preperation H, but i never tried it. she had to have the fat sucked out with a surgical procedure before she was 30 and was alot happier.

    it also comes from having thin skin under that area so the darkness is being able to see the veins and shit.


    i used to work for clinique, they have an eye cream called all about eyes rich that helps some. that plus a concealer has always done it for me.
