Re: New Eye Cream Suggestions

I don't use an eye cream but I was looking at this Cetaphil product and it appears all the places that sell this have raving customer reviews. I think for that reason I would give it a try. Not very expensive at all.

 

Cetaphil Hydrating Eye Gel-Cream With Hyaluronic Acid - Designed to Deeply Hydrate, Brighten & Smooth Under-Eye Area - For All Skin Types - $11 (Amazon)

Re: New Eye Cream Suggestions

[ Edited ]

FYI, I hear many times that our mothers or grandmothers used one simple cream from the drugstore all over their faces and had beautiful skin. That may be true, but keep in mind that as years went on, products changed and ingredients did as well. There are now additives, active ingredients that can be irritating around the eyes, fragrances that bother some people and thicker substances that can get into the eye causing blurred vision (just until removed) and for me, gets on my glasses' lenses causing constant cleaning.

 

Of course, we all have our own opinions, education and trials w/ products. I personally like to treat the undereye area for wrinkles first and am able to apply Retin A almost to my bottom lashes. Then I alternate at night w/ an  undereye night cream. I use the same one AM & PM. If the area gets extra dry in winter, at night, I add a dot of oil to it and lightly tap it in until absorbed.

No, this is not true. Facial moisturizers are not good for delicate eye area skin - too heavy among other things.

Many eye creams may be a marketing ploy, true, but not all of them. Some are exellent products working really well for this specific area. 

Wrong cream used for the eye area makes the problem much worth.


It is true. One find 'clean' light weight moisturizers that are just fine around the eye area. Many women believe everything the beiuty industry puts in front of them. Both creams are a marketing ploy. 


I use all my facial things around my eye area. But I also like the extra support.

 

My favorite eye creams/serums are Victoria Principal's for day/night. But as soon as I wake up, I put on things w/ caffeine or for firming, but I eventually wash those off and use the VP.

 

For some reason the Isomers dried out my eye area. And actually never had that reaction from an eye serum before.

Hey there Shellbelle, What other eye products do you like? Have you used the All in One?

 

I just checked and All in One Eye Serum isn't available on Shop and it's $60 Canadian smackers on Isomer's site. Hope they bring some back soon.

I also like Baebody Eye Gel. I usually use a gel type or serum in the daytime, something geared for puffiness and a cream in the overnite. I dont use anything with petro or mineral oil or heavy on any oils. Isomers is never heavy on any oil. I would like to try Dr Denese Collagen eye cream.

Okay @Onefineday. You are so much smarter than me! Luckily, I do not believe EVERYTHING the ‘beiuty’ industry puts in front of me, except for the skincare that does what I want it to do. You use your ‘clean’ moisturizer that does not do anything for the wrinkles, and I’ll use the anti-aging skincare that does.


Topical products do nothing to reduce or remove wrinkles. Ask any reputable  dermatoloigist or plastic surgeon.

Re: New Eye Cream Suggestions

I tried the MesmerEyes but didn't find it did anything for me.  I think my two favorite Isomers eye products would probably be the Glutitiosome Eye serum and the Stem Genesis Plasma Eye.

 

Right now I'm using Clinique All About Eyes at night and M. Asam Vino Gold Eye daytime (not that I need two and could use either one day and night).

@Lally 

I think that's the one I'm going with!  I'll watch the presentation on ShopHQ on 1/3/20.


 

The only thing I am not very sure about, if Mezmer-Eyes will or will not be presented this time. I did not see it in the line-up of the scheduled shows, but then again - the lineup is not fully complete yet. It may be in stock, but at regular price... I really do not know as of now. I have it on Auto Delivery and larger 1.86 oz bottle paired up with a wonderful eye mask that you do not wash off, and at ridiculously low price. If you want, I can re-direct one shipment to your address @SurferWife - just let me know!  Woman Happy


@sonechko 

That is an extremely sweet offer!  I'll keep my eyes open on ShopHQ.  I've never shopped with the before & have no clue what their shipping charges to HI is.  I definitely want to try it, though.
