Anyone have any product ideas for eye bags and dark circles?

I always have dark circles under my eyes, but these allergies have taken a toll on my eyes. I have huge bags under my eyes as well as dark, dark, circles. Do any of you have any ideas for either an eye cream to reduce the bags and circles and/or a great concealer to hide them. I need a miracle because I look horrible right now (more horrible than usual.)

I heard that Preparation H takes down puffiness.bags. If you know it's normal use, it makes sense that it would work. Regarding a concealer, Laura Mercier recently came out with a high coverage concealer in a tube. I have her secret concealer & love it but the new is more coverage. Good luck.

Skinn on ShopHQ sells a product called Hi Lighten. It was formulated mainly to help dark under the eyes. It is not a concealer or coverup, it is to address the darkness. I am not sure if it also helps with puffy issues or not.

I've been told by posters here that no topical product will remedy the bags. Apparently, in part, they can be genetic. Also, there are due to fat absorption and shifting after menopause.

What I have done is turn to youtube. Google "bagginess under eyes" and you will find MU tricks & tips to disguise them.

I'm sorry but I don't know about dark circles. You might want to check out Mally or IT Cosmetics' Bye Bye Undereye cream.

Isomers Fast Lift Eye Serum made a huge difference in puffiness for me.

Dimitri from Skinn says if you have puffiness/bags to use dark concealer while if you have dark, sunken undereye, go light concealer. I think eye surgery is best for this problem.

I have been using Lancôme genifique eye cream and I do not have to use concealer any more.

I am also using Genifique serum and I can tell a big difference in my skin. No more red beard from the sun. That is the red specks that go from the ear down the face from sun damage.

Don't worry, be Happy!

Aaahhh! The ""real"" Bella Carro is back!

I've heard the isomers mentioned before. Do you use it prior to MU or at night? Both under and over or just under?

Nice to see you back BellaCarro.

Isomers Fast Lift Eye Serum is nice. I am currently using Mad Hippie eye cream but I don't think it helps as much for puffiness as the Isomers does. It also addresses dark circles. The eye peel from Isomers also helps with puffiness. I am trying some new products from A.S.D.M. Beverly Hills. They have an eye cream and serum that might help and they have 20% off on their site this weekend.

Black tea bags, either warm or cold to your liking. Put them on, lie down, and rest. Stress causes this as well as allergies.
