i don’t have an eye cream and i am 37 going on 38!!! i use is sunscreen and pure vitamine e oil (in bottle or single twisted open gel form). i use them on my entire face and hands and neck and body too. cheap and work really well for me.
oh and i took the quiz. and this is what’s said:
Your key ingredients: grapeseed extract, vitamin E, echinacea, natural plant oils
Fighting lines the natural way is possible with ingredients that will help plump fine lines while promoting healthier-looking, firmer skin. “Grapeseed extract is a powerful skin-saving ingredient with soothing and anti-inflammatory properties and it is one of the most potent natural fighters of free-radical damage,” says natural skincare expert Liz Earle, co-founder of Liz Earle Naturally Active Skincare. “Vitamin E is also a powerful antioxidant which helps to protect skin against free-radical damage caused by pollution and the sun’s rays. And echinacea is famed for its skin-saving properties and for helping to strengthen the skin.” For deeper wrinkles, Earle recommends natural plant oils like borage seed, cranberry and rosehip oils. “They are rich in essential fatty acids and potent skin plumpers,” she says. (If your product doesn’t contain those ingredients, try Caudalie Contour Cream Eyes and Lips, $53, or Juice Beauty Juice Organics Revitalizing Eye Treatment, $19.99.)
Dermatologist Dr. Heidi Waldorf, who also recommends antioxidants like the shiitake mushroom complex (in Aveeno Active Naturals Positively Ageless Eye Serum, $19.99). “Long-lasting results can often take two to six months to show, but you should see improvement from better moisturization within a few days,” she says.
I’ve been using the Made from Earth VITAMIN ENHANCED FACE FIRMING SERUM as an eyecream for about 2 months now and i can honestly say that i’ve seen a MAJOR difference!!
i’ve always had dark under eye circles and now being in my late fourties, fine lines have really started to appear. I use serum for my undereyes but i’ve also been using it on my forehead. My dark circles are ALMOST COMPLETELY GONE! i can defintely see a difference and my friends have mentioned it too.
In terms of wrinkles i have seen a big difference on my forehead…the fine lines that were starting to look prominent are starting to disappear. I’m really glad i purchased this Made from Earth product…it actually works. i purchased on their website at madefromearth.com
