Hey R.,

The best inexpensive remedy for puffy eyes and lines under the eye is cucumbers. Just cut a slice and place one on each eye and it does wonders. I also use Shaklee Nutrition Therapy which does wonder for the skin

Hi R.,

While there are many products that are great and can help, the skin and especially the face are indicators of what's going on within. A while back I came across a book called Facial Diagnosis of Cell Salt Deficiencies and found it fascinating to see that many of our concerns (including wrinkles) are mineral deficiencies. I've noticed a difference since I've been taking them. The salts I use are Hyland's Bioplasma which contains all 12 minerals. You can also purchase any of the 12 separately. I use muscle testing for myself and my clients to determine what's needed and how much.

Here's the link for the book: http://www.amazon.com/Facial-Diagnosis-Cell-Salt-Deficien...

Here's a link for the salts (you can also often find them at health food stores):

I hear that wrinkle are caused by free radicals.
The worst offender being sleeping next to anything electric, like a phone or clock, cell phone.....
Find a good antioxident like grape seed extract to take internally.
There is so much info out there, keeping searching!

Hi R. -
I am 37 and have wrinkles around my eyes, on my forehead and the ones that go from my nose to down the sides of my mouth. They are not bad, mind you. People don't think I am really 37 but I see them and feel they are bad...I also think my skin is less elastic and needs tightening, my pores are too big, etc., etc. But I have found that keeping two spoons in the freezer and gently putting them around my eye seems to help with any puffiness in the morning, and it seems to tighten the skin in the eye area. As a result, the lines are less visible. I don't know if it really works but we do put ice on other body parts that are swollen. The best part is this is free. Use plenty of sunscreen on your face, too. The sun can really age you!

And don't be hard on yourself. Aging is a normal process and whatever we are on the inside is going to shine through whatever is on the outside. Plus, you don't want to spend so much time worrying about it when you have two boys to enjoy and who are going to love you no matter what you look like. I bet your husband doesn't care either!!

Good luck and God bless.

Hi,

I am 34 and still have to show ID when I buy wine so something that I use is working:))) I use Vichy lotions. It is a French brand that I started using when I still lived in Europe (I am European). In Europe, they only sell the brand in pharmacies and it is a great brand. It is made with mineral water from the source in Vichy, France, and here in the US it is sold in CVS stores (don't know abobut Walmart). It is not super cheat but compared to brands like Lancome, Estee Lauder etc. it is a good deal and it is just as good. FYI, I give this recommendation because I really like this product. I do not sell the product so this recommendation is from the heart. Good luck with the wrinkles.

Hi, R. - Please first let me say, "you get what you pay for." Products from the drug store, etc. frequently contain harmful chemicals, i.e. formaldehyde as a preservative. May I suggest Nicole Miller skin care products? They are manufactured by Melaleuca & are very reasonably priced. If money is a concern (isn't it for all of us!?!) Melaleuca also has a simple program in place for folks who like to get their products for free! Feel free to contact me if you are open to hearing more about the safe, effective, reasonably priced, high quality products available from Melaleuca. N. B.

Hello! I'm a massage therapist - okay, in the mornings you should rub your face in circles around the eyes toward the edge of your scalp about 5 times each - this will get the lymphatic system working in the face and will help with the appearance of those wrinkles and possible puffiness that comes with sleeping. Good luck!

I don't want to sound like I am just trying to sell you something, but I love the skin care products I use so much that I became a consultant. If you would like more information please contact me I will be happy to send you samples and you may try them yourself.

I read the other posts and agree with the one who focus on nutrition. Beauty starts on the inside. A confidant smile and a healthy body are the first place to start. Let the topical products fill in the rest.

I don't know about Walmart, but I have a Mary Kay product that works wonders! Let me know if your interested. ____@____.com

R.,
I am an avid user of Mary Kay products and truly love them...I am also a consultant, but wont try to get you to buy them..my advice is for you to try some different products. There are several home based skin care companies which have 'at home parties' for you to try before you buy( or at least send you some samples).
If you decide that you are determined to by from the store than look for products made only for eyes and, if possible, look for a product w/ Pentapeptides or Peptides. These are the newest 'buzz words' in skin care and have great regenerative effects.
Hope this helps...also,...you can get younger from the inside out with vitamins, minerals, and drinking green tea. Look at the asians! They all look young w/ glowing skin...either green tea or pomegranate, white tea, or riobos tea are natural cleansers and anti-oxidants.
Beauty to you!
Blessings,
L.

Do you use an eye cream? If not, I'd start using one. I have ULTRA-sensitive skin (I'm allergic to eye shadow!) and I've had to try a LOT of products before I found one that didn't irritate my skin, so be prepared to try several if you have sensitive skin too. Also, a moisturizer is good to use too....especially one during the day with a SPF in it.

R.,

There is a book I highly recommend getting before choosing a product. It's called "Don't go to the Cosmetic counter without me" by Paula Begoun (http://www.amazon.com/Dont-Cosmetics-Counter-Without-7th/...)
I checked it out to see if the products I was using are ok for my skin because what it great for me may not work for you. The other suggestions below are good too as I use Mary Kay (have been for about 10 years). The book will help you decide what is good and inexpensive and right for you. Have fun and God Bless

Aubrey Organics makes a fabulous eye lotion (as well as other skin/face/hair care and color). I'm 40, and I'm told I barely look 30. By many people.

It's all-natural and organic where possible, so there are NO chemicals or anything in them that will hurt you. It's available at Whole Foods, Wegman's and online: AubreyOrganics.com. Also at some natural food stores.

With the parabens and laurels and PEGs (and so many other ingredients) out there that can cause cancer or hormonal problems, we've made the move to all-natural.

Check out safecosmetics.org to find other brands that are safe beyond anything you'll find in drug stores.
