If you have black (shadowed) bags under your eyes, you should look into non-surgical and non-dermal or epidermal treatments. Such as - getting more sleep. Getting more productive sleep, if you get sleep but it's not productive or drug-induced. Eliminating alcohol consumption completely. Reducing stress. Drinking more water. Eliminating anything containing MSG. Reducing sodium consumption. Increasing potassium consumption. And, obviously, if you wear black eyeliner or mascara, try using an actual eye-makeup removing oil, and -then- washing your face as usual. Sometimes what we are absolutely positive are shadows, are really just smudges of makeup that we didn't realize was still there.
sleep is going to do more than any product, be it over the counter or prescription. Most skin care products are temporary fixes for reducing the appearance of various issues, only.
After trying so many products that I lost count, I was very skeptical, but I saw a HUGE difference on my wrinkles and even color uniformity (didn't even realize my color was off until it was corrected) after using Skin Medica. So glad my doc was running a sale and I picked up some! I can give you a list of the exact products I used; if you're interested, just DM me. I must say, too, that I get asked on a regular basis what my skin (and teeth) regime is, so it must be working!
Remember diet, sleep, exercise, hydration, and exfoliation are all also huge factors in the condition of your skin. If I miss just one of these, I'm amazed at the quick difference I notice in my skin (sometimes the very next day! - gah! lol).
go to beautypedia.com.....Paula Begoun has rated every product and brand from drug store to expensive......most have the same ingredients and most are a total rip off to the consumer. She has her own line of products with the ingredients that work, and they are priced in line with drug store.......the 200 and 300 dollar creams are a total waste of money.....save your money for a trip to the cosmetics dermatologist for laser, face lift, botox, etc.
I am just trying to find an active Anti Aging Forum. This one seems a little bit stale. Currently my best bet is antiagingforum.org any other suggestions? Thanks if you reply to my post.

What works for eye hollows? The tea bag trick makes them worse,because they aren't puffy,they are already sunken in lol.
I just want to puff my under eye area up.
What that crease look under the eyes? Nothing covers that up that I ever heard of.
