Can someone recommend a good eye cream for the lids. Thanks.

Olay eye lifting serum.

Manuela says her Isomers Mesmereyes and her Plasma 200 are good for the lids.

What's a 'good eye cream' supposed to do? I've never found any eye cream to do much for me.

Dr.Denese Firming Facial Colleagan Eye Cream. I use it and love it. I saw results in a very short time.  Works for me.

@hovis     best not to use creams on the eye lids and upper eye area... use only eye gels.

I've been using something from Avon: . Anew Eye Lift Pro Dual Eye System.  

It's for both lids and under eye puffiness ... but I most often use the eye lid cream.

I will say my lid skin was getting very saggy, partly to age but also genetic (my Dad had vey droopy lids).  Dr. Denese's eye cream really helped to show improvement.  Nothing like you'd get from surgery, but it did show noticeable improvement.

This one has mineral oil, would not use on lid, too oily for me.

For droopy eyelid treatment there is Thermage (radiofrequency). This is not surgery, no cutting and it costs about half of what surgery would cost. Thermage is not recommended for severely drooping lids and is usually done by a derm in one visit. Afterwards there is no down time but some redness and light swelling that goes away in 24 hours. Since there's no cutting then there are no scars.

If you are serious about doing something for your lids, paying a visit to a derm is about the best thing to do. Lids are not going to get any better on their own...they only get worse.
