Gettin Rid of those Dark Circles... Part 3

Now the past two posts I have blogged, I've criticized and ridiculed the products that claimed to be effective in decreasing puffiness or eliminating the dark circles under your eye. Well behold a product that I have found to work! Well at least to some extent... the Olay Age Defying Revitalizing Eye Gel. You might get half of your money's worth from this product which is better than getting no value at all.

Now you might not get the best results but little results are better than nothing. When I've used this product I've seen a small decrease in puffiness around and under my eyes. Dark circles faded just a little bit, and the skin around my eyes are a little more firm. I also like using this product because it nicely cools and soothes the skin around my eyes. A good product to use if you had a good cry from watching a movie.

I have bought this product repeatedly, however I do not plan to buy it again in the future.

In my opinion, if you want to purchase a product to prevent puffiness and dark circles around the eye, this may be a good product for you. However, if you are planning to buy this product to completely get rid of puffiness and dark circles, you should rethink about spending your money.

However, I haven't seen this product on the stores shelf lately, but you can still find it online. Just becareful of scams!

Come back for part 4 as I reveal my most favorite product for puffiness and dark circles under the eyes and especially for those days when I'm exhausted from the night before!

Gettin Rid of those Dark Circles... Part 2

Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew's Anti-Puff Eye Roller should just roll it's way off the self! I mean I never really had faith in any eye products but at least the products do DO something. This product however does NOTHING! If I wanted to put something cold on my eyes I'll just splash it with cold water and save myself $10.

I think they just put scented water into this little green tube. I've have used it plenty of times and experimented with it on days when my eyes were extremely puffy. However no results. My eyes were still left puffy, the ony thing the product did was just cooled my eyes but thats it.

It didn't even lighten up the dark circles that were under my eyes too. It did nothing!

But hey if you're in desperate need to soothe and cool your eyes and have money to just throw away this is just the product for you.

Anyone else use this product? What do you think of it? Did it work for you? Feel free to join in on the conversation.

Other than that, stick around for part 3...

Gettin Rid of those Dark Circles... Part 1

As I get older I begin to see those dark circles forming under my eyes and it is not attractive! It makes me look old, and at the age of 22 who is already been using anti-aging products, looking old is a something I cannot endure or gracefully accept. I'm even dreading turning 23 in the next couple months.

So what is a girl to do? How do I get rid of this under eye issue? What product works and don't? Do cucumbers really do the trick?

In my desperate need of finding a solution I have ran across a lot of products that don't work, including L'oreal Skin Genesis Eye Serum.

If you're looking something to get rid of dark circles this is not the trick. I'll but it on day and night and I just see the same dark circle under my eyes just sitting there refusing to budge. However, this product is not a complete waste, it does help with other eye issues that I've noticed.

If you've started to see very small premature wrinkles around your eyes this might do the trick. There are times when I wake up and I see a tiny wrinkle under my eyes, and yes I do freak out, but I've noticed if I put the eye serum right before I got to bed the tiny wrinkle disappears or is less visible. The only problem is when I do put this product on before I go to bed I end up waking up with crust all over and around my eye. And it is disgusting. It clings to my lashes and sometimes hard to wipe off without irritating my eye.

So in the end I wouldn't buy this product again, it was too expensive and the negatives out weighed the positives.

What products works or doesn't work for you? Feel free to put your two cents in!

Other than that, stayed tuned for part 2!
