Help with under eye lines?

CarMe · 04-02-2013 11:05am #1

Im 25 and sick of waking up every day noticing new little lines under my eyes!
Im a mother and work full time and my skin care routine has been reduced to an all in one slap it on cream make up remover and wipe it off with de-mac pads, then fall into bed!
I've started walking early morning sometimes in wind and rain and I've an awful feeling I'll end up with the face of a haggard fisherman if I don't do something quick :O

I don't smoke anymore, drink plenty of water, have a varied diet-lots of fruit and veg but quite a bit of rubbish too sometimes, don't drink a whole lot or very often. However I do drink a lot of coffee!
I contacted a botox place but they said under eye lines would only be slightly improved-would this be worth it, anyone any experience? They are only very fine lines, at the moment so "slightly improved" would be great!

Can you recommend a really really good under eye cream- I was using Nivea q10 under eye cream but it actually seemed to make it worse!
Anything at all would be a great help its really getting me down!

The new Avon cream is meant to be amazing, as good as Strivectin so it sounds like a winner! You may be drinking a fair amount but not enough water so I'd really try and up your intake if you can! I'd also purchase something like a face oil or Weleda's skin food and use that a couple of times a week to give you skin a treat.

Yeah I would say you're definitely right about the water actually, will make a big effort to up that!
What's the Avon stuff called? I'll order it tomorrow in work from my Avon lady!
Where could I get the other stuff you suggested? God I really am very out of the beauty loop these days :O

It's the Anew Af33 clinical eye cream I'm dying to try it out! Weleda can be bought in health stores like Nourish or online of course if you're stuck and brands that do face oils are usually in the health stores as well!
