I think I have been neglecting my eye area! I usually concentrate on the rest of the face, and I think I should take care of my eye area asap!!
Any suggestions? What are your eye care routine and fave products?
I would say the most important thing you can do for your skin is to wear sunscreen and stay out of the sun and tanning beds.
I have really come to like the Shiseido products. During the day, I use the eye cream with sunscreen.
As for Philosophy, I use the "philosophy hope in a tube: eye and lip contouring cream". I bought the Makeup Optional kit for Congested skin, and the eye cream is still going strong from the kit. In fact, the only product from that kit that I have truly used up is the Hope in a Jar. It has made a tremendous difference in my skin! I had a lot of problems with breakouts using the Mary Kay skin care that I had been using in the past.
But about the eye creams in general - I have really been able to reduce puffiness, no matter how little sleep I end up with. That's a really big help.
I first started using anti-aging products in my 20s, although not totally consistently. I did stop using soap on my face then, however. I was pretty ignorant about that before hand. But the biggest factor in my appearance, in my opinion, was pretty much avoiding suntanning from the time I was 18. Up to that point, I could be out in the sun all the time and just tan and tan. But pregnancy and hormones made me not able to stand the sun for several years, and by that time I would burn if I didn't take care.
The fact that I am only 6 months shy of 40 and have very few wrinkles.. it's part genetics, the rest of it has to be from protecting my skin. No sunning, drink plenty of water, don't smoke, etc.
I've used so many I can't remember. I use serum first then eye cream, right now it's Mario Badescu (cause I just got my samples). I'm 50 and don't have eye wrinkles at all. I've used expensive and cheap; I switch back and forth cause I'm not real sure if one is better than the other. I just feel you need some type of moisture there. I use lighter ones during the day and heavier at night. I have dark circles and nothing has ever reduced that but concealer.
I used Lancome Eye cream and it worked for me for quite a while as a prevention but recently as I approach late 30s I switched on to Batura Bisse Diamond Bio-Lift Eye Contour Cream. And it does wonders! Quite costly but worth every penny.

Earth Science Azulene Eye Treatment, it's cheap , cruelty-free , and works well. I massage it in gentley until the blue color disapears. My eye are less puffy and not as dark , I don't look haggard without makeup anymore. Best 13.99 I've spent on face stuff. :)
I used to use All about Eyes by Clinique and really still like it a lot. Somebody at Sephora recommended Evening Primrose eyecream by Korres and i am using that now. It is pretty good, but I don't know if it blows me away. I have very bad dark circles.
I use Olay Regenerist and also Olay Definity Eye Illuminator (the one scully mentioned). I like both of them. Regenerist is more moisturizing, while the Definity is better for dark circles. These both are affordable and suit my needs since I'm young and don't need to battle deep wrinkles yet. To those of you that mentioned Philosophy's eye creams, do you know the specific product names? I was thinking of buying a kit from them, but if the eye creams aren't great, I don't know if it's worth it.
I use Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Eye Cream. Usually my eyelids and eyebrows flake and it's very painful, but the cream stopped all the dry skin and totally smoothed out my skin and i can blink without a pinching feeling. It doesn't smell and it's medium weight so I can use it morning and night.
I use something from Skinactives called SAS Bright-I Cream that reduces darkness and puffiness (also builds up the skin under the eye to hide those capillaries). I also use Eye Bright by DHC for a quick fix for dark circles. Mine aren't bad at all from the first product, but some days I'm just tired looking.
I just started using one, I don't have dark circles - I just thought I should start prevention. Right now I am using the eye cream in the Philosophy kit - it's okay. Really, I am not sure what is the purpose of eye cream (how it should make your eye area feel) besides the benefit of prevention.
I tried a few but have been sticking with the extreme, Hylexin. It costs more, but lasts a while and I really notice a difference. I have really bad eye circles (inherited, I'm pale, and I have the worst allergies), while using it though I notice that they are lighter and skin is tighter and just better.
Yes, but I don't have a fevorite. I always switch around. Usually drugstore brands, Neutrogena or Oil of Olay. Right now I have one that came in the Philosophy kit, which I don't like... and I also got the Benefit Eye Con which is not bad, but no better than one I was using from Neutrogena.
Do you use an EYE CREAM?
