Miracle cure for bags under eyes?

[1977Nicky]

I am 28 and have just started developing dark bags under my eyes. Other than more sleep (!) has anyone got a recommendation for a miracle cream that can help? x

I don't know about a reduction cream but I can recommend an excellent make up for dark circles. It's called Maquicomplet and it's by Lancome. You dab a bit in the corner of each under-eye and then pat gently outwards. It's miraculous plus I've found it makes an excellent spot concealer for fare skin. Hope this helps a bit.

How much is the cream and do most chemists stock it?

If it's Lancome I am guessing Boots or any make up place that stocks Lancome will do it - I know it is quite an expensive brand though so Cymbeline - how much is it?!

I tried using that Circle Clear from Skin Doctors which does absolutely nothing (in fact I haven't been impressed with any of their range!).

I've just looked on the boots website and its �18. It comes in three different shades. Don't know if this link will work or not!

A similar question was asked some time ago, to which I replied that Preparation H was good for shrinking baggy eyes - I've just found this site which confirms it.

Scroll down the page to Baggy Eyes & for lots of other useful tips.

Good luck.

Thanks Smudge but the problem is more dark circles than puffiness.

[Cymbeline]

It's between fifteen and twenty pounds, I think. but you only use a dab each time so it lasts forever.

You're welcome Nicky - sorry, as you'd writtten dark 'bags' as opposed to dark circles, I thought that's what you had. Hope you soon find something suitable.

smudge - what a brilliant website .

Thank you Judie - I thought so too & have saved it to my fav's.

Don't laugh but my beautician friend said people use a cream for piles.Depends how desperate you are but I am just passing the info on.Good luck.

[smudge]

Your friend is right DebDeb - but only for baggy eyes, not dark rings.I learned that tip from our youngest daughter who has been on a beautician's course at college.

If you look at my previous post above, you'll see that I've mentioned Perparation H which is for piles too!
