What Sort and Size Eye Wrinkles Do You Have? Crows Feet or Eagles Claw

Men over 50 tend to get more and deeper crows feet eye wrinkles, bags and undereye wrinkles as they keep aging. In my case they are more like deep eagles claws that run all the way down to my chin. So what can you do about improving them?

First - start using a moisturizing cream twice a day morning and night on freshly cleaned skin. I bet if I asked one hundred men over 50 how many of them moisturize their face twice a day - what do you think the answer would be? Probably one or maybe two more than zero.

We older men just aren't used to taking care of our facial skin. We have never got into the habit of doing so. The nearest most of us have come, is splashing after-shave on after scratching half our face off with a bunt 3 blade razor. So moisturizing is the first very important step to looking after our facial skin.

Second - find a good quality anti aging, anti wrinkle natural skin care cream and eye gel. The eye gel is important for undereye wrinkles and sagging bags. It is designed specifically for this more sensitive facial area.

Now, if your prepared to start a daily skin care regime you want to get a good quality range of natural skin care products that will do more than just moisturize around your eyes and face.

Recently after a lot of researching on the Internet. I found a new range of natural skin cream for men, you more than likely have never heard of them. This small company has some great innovative skin care creams. I now practice what I preach, and have not missed a day using their men's eye gel and active facial fluid since I started a short time ago. No - my eagle's claw eye wrinkles have not vanished overnight, nor did I expect them to.

What has happened to my surprise is my skin's now well moisturized, not dry and itchy any more. It feels softer, smoother and looks healthier. My undereye wrinkles seem less baggy and don't look to sag down quite as much. It's only early days yet, I imagine it will take 2 to 3 months to notice any great improvement in the wrinkles, but I'm very encouraged by the results so far.

These new eye wrinkle creams include ingredients that can actually stimulate regrowth of both collagen and elastin. These two proteins are responsible for your skin cell structure and it's elasticity. Increasing the volume of both will help reduce deep wrinkles and remove fine lines.

A good quality undereye wrinkle cream also needs to contain natural essential oil moisturizing ingredients like jojoba, grapeseed and avocado oils. Also don't forget your face and eye wrinkles need to be hydrated, so drink plenty of water each day, without the Scotch whisky included if you can manage it!

Finally, if your over 50 and haven't used skin moisturizing cream before, start a daily skin care routine as soon as you can. It will make a big difference to your eye wrinkles and sagging bags under your eyes when you get into your 60's. I know it's worth it, because the increase in wrinkles and depth I have experienced from my 50's to 60's is substantially more than I ever expected.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. QUESTION:
    How do I minimize eye-bags and wrinkles under my eyes?
    I am a male who will be turning 40 next year. Like everyone, I am experiencing more intense signs of aging than in the past. My concern is the bags and wrinkles under my eyes. The skin became thinner and, especially when I smile or laugh, it forms lots of wrinkles. I was wondering if there are any traditional or non-traditional remedies out there that can be used. Is there anything that I miss in my diet? I drink about 3 beers everyday, is that a contributor too? I am going through a separation also. Is my skin ever going to rejuvenate? I hate to think of Botox or cosmetic surgery, but is that a viable, non-risky solution ultimately? I have been using a non-prescription L'Oreal eye wrinkle-reduction cream for many months now, but it doesn't seem to help a lot.

    • ANSWER:
      Bags Under The Eyes Is Totally Common And Almost Everyone Suffers From It At Some Point. Vitamin Deficiency, A Poor Diet, Overexposure To Sunlight, Sleep Deprivation, Smoking And Stress Are All Factors Which Can Cause Bags Under The Eyes. The Number One Culprit Though Is Actually Long Term PC Monitor Reading! Although It Sounds Like A Cliche, Cucumber Slices Applied To Your Eyes For About 15 Minutes Every Day Can Make A Difference. It Lightens The Skins And Also Soothes And Cools The Eyes, Reducing The Dark And Tired Appearance. Another Home Remedy Which Is Very Effective Is Using A Squeezed Out Teabag In The Same Way. The Caffine In Tea Diminishes Puffiness And The Anti-Oxidants Are Beneficial To The Skin. Give It A Try!

      As For The Wrinkles, Men Can Get Away With Calling Them "Laughter Lines"!

      Good Luck!

  3. QUESTION:

    I have wrinkles in my eye bags but only when i smile; but I'm 15 so I shouldn't have wrinkles.

    So has anyone tried hemroid cream for I bags?
    I figure once I get rid of the bags I'll be wrinkle less too.

  4. QUESTION:
    What is the most gentlest and best concealer to cover up under eye bags and wrinkles?
    I live in Wales in the UK, can anyone recommend the most gentlest and best concealer to cover up under eye bags and wrinkles, as I find the ones I use make them look worse and you have to pull the under eye skin to put them on. thank you

    • ANSWER:
      The trick is not about what you use to cover your circles but how you cover them. Use a light liquid concealer (mac has an excellent liquid one) or use the mousse one from maybelline. i find that both work well but i prefer mac.
      Before you conceal rub an ice cube under and around your eyes while wrapped in a thin towel. I find using frozen tea bags or thin cold potato slices work better for me. I put the over my eyes for about ten minutes (if you wanna save time do this while on the potty) and then rinse with regular water.
      your eye bags would have reduced by now and you can apply the concealer easily.
      I also find that applying then with a sponge rather than with a brush/fingers works better and I get no lines or anything else.
      Hope I helped.

  6. QUESTION:
    what causes eye wrinkles and bags ?
    I'm 20 years old guy and my eye looks like a 50 years old. Firstly wrinkles under my eyes are increasing daily besides the crow feet. Also there is bags under my eyes and the eye it self looks red. I want to know why is that and how to reduce them also I heard some experts saying that certain signs on human look gives us other sign that there is other problem inside and deeper, just silly example not for sure : having bags under the eyes tells us the that persons kidney's has something wrong with it. Is that right?

    • ANSWER:
      There is probably nothing wrong with your kidney.

      However, there are two major reasons why one may have wrinkles or "bags" under their eyes.

      The first and most common is old age and loss of elasticity in the skin.

      The second is simple stress or lack of sleep. The simplest solution to this is to get to sleep earlier so you can sleep longer. If this is not an option, however, (aka, if you're in college) a nice under-eye cream meant to tighten up the skin under your eyes works wonders for many people.

      I have linked a few good sites where you can purchase such creams. Any cream with vitamin K is usually pretty good for tightening up the skin, releasing the wrinkles and lightening up the skin if you have dark circles under your eyes too.

      This could be something wrong with your kidneys, but I highly doubt it. If you're worried about it you should certainly check with your doctor.

    What works best to get rid under eye bags and wrinkles?
    I'm thirteen. I usually drink of water. In the summer I get 10+ hours of sleep, during the school year.. not so much.

    Is there any product (preferably inexpensive) that helps get rid of them?

    • ANSWER:
      Sometimes its hereditary, but you can tame it down, with cucumber or any product that has cucumber extract. Also, product with caffeine ( don't actual put coffee of your eyes) can help reduce swelling. Anything with collagen in it will help your wrinkles.

      You can put eye concealer to make it appear less puffy.

  9. QUESTION:
    Under eye wrinkles and bags?!?
    Hey everyone! I'm only 13, turning 14 soon, and I've always had really noticeable under eye bags. In the past year, I started applying concealer to them to make them a lot less noticeable. It helps a ton! But now that I've been using it for a few months, I have a few wrinkles! When I don't wear concealer, my under eye bags look horrible, so I can't stop wearing it. Also, the wrinkles aren't from applying eyeliner under my eye or anything like that, I don't wear eyeliner. The only makeup I wear is tinted moisturizer, concealer, and mascara. So is it the concealer causing these wrinkles? It's only under my eyes and I hate them! I don't get much sleep because of all my homework and studying, so that's probably why I have bags in the first place. What natural at-home remedies can I use to cute my under eye bags and, most importantly, my premature wrinkles? Would applying moisturizer daily under my eyes reduce the wrinkles? Any help would be very much appreciated! Kisses everyone! ^_^
    Also, I take very good care of my skin and wash all of my makeup off every night and do acne treatments, exfoliate, etc.

    • ANSWER:
      yes moisturizer works well, but u have to keep it up. and if it doesnt work after a couple of days have some patients and eventually it will start to work. and as for the type of moisturizer, i have found that the more generic and cheaper brands work. and i no this is retarded, but i have also tried putting a little conditioner instead of moisturizer and it works if u wanted to try that.
      i really hope this helps! and good luck

  11. QUESTION:
    How does one hide wrinkles or bags under the eye?
    I have a friend who Is 43 and loves to where make up ...but she needs me to do her make up for her,That I can do but can never accomplish the bags and wrinkles under her eyes ????
    Can anyone help

    • ANSWER:
      i use a light blend of concealer, and then set the concealer with a light powder.

      loreal true match has an excellent concealer that hides anything.. but does not crease! just put two dots underneath your eye, then blend in by patting under your eye *gently*. after that get a small brush and dab only a *little* bit of powder on top. this adds extra coverage while setting the concealer as well.

      fyi: any pressed powder will do. i use neutrogena because it's very light and won't irritate the skin! always remember, less is more! i cannot stress that enough!! too much will make your wrinkles stand out.. and cause your eye to crease. ;o)

      hope i've helped!

  13. QUESTION:
    Vitamin E for under eye wrinkles/bags?
    I'm 25 Y.O and I want to find a really good moisturizer at night for my eye area to prevent future aging and wrinkles. Is this the best way to go for that face area, or do you receommend something else?

    • ANSWER:
      Vitmain E is good for skin and hair, so yes, go for it! But one thing a lot of people don't know, is that the WAY you apply creams and makeup can increase your chances of getting wrinkles.

      When applying creams and concealers to your eyes, don't rub them and pull at your skin - that stretches it and causes it to strain and lose its elasticity, eventually causing wrinkles. Dab them on instead with your finger and leave them to soak in naturally :)

      The Body Shop do a great Vitamin E range too! And Avocado oil is full of it, so consdier making a face mask out of avocado too :)

    • ANSWER:
      Here are some home remedies that you could try:

      Slice cucumber into thick slices. Cucumber slices have long been used to reduce puffiness and refresh the appearance of skin around the eyes, providing a fast "pick-me-up" for tired and puffy eyes. Place a slice over each eye, extending over the darkened area. Do this daily, coupled with lying down for 10-15 minutes. Keep your eyes closed.

      Apply cool tea bags or an ice cube wrapped in soft cloth to your eyes daily. The tannin in tea bags reduces swelling and discoloration. Lie down, preferably in the morning, and leave the fresh, cool, damp, caffeinated tea bags (you can refrigerate them overnight so they’ll be ready) over your eyes for about 10-15 minutes. Keep your eyes closed.

      Pour a saline solution (2 cups water with a 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt[9] and/or a half tea-spoon of baking soda) in one of your nostrils with your head tilted to the side so that the water comes out the other nostril. It's best used when you're experiencing nasal congestion.

      Use a potato. Place one uncooked potato into a liquidizer and liquidize the whole potato. Scoop out and place the pureed potato on your closed eyes .Keep it there for 30 minutes, lying on your back, then wash it off with warm water. This method works well for some people.

      Use a frozen spoon. Put a spoon in the freezer and pour water into it. (Putting the water in after you put it in the freezer makes sure you don't spill any.) Leave it in there for a short period of time then take it out. Put it on the dark circles and leave it there until the ice starts to melt.

      And here are some cosmetic solutions:

      Apply an eye cream containing vitamin K and retinol. Dark circles may be caused by a deficiency of vitamin K. Regardless of the cause, however, skin creams containing these two ingredients reduce puffiness and discoloration significantly in many people. Long-term daily use seems to have the greatest effect

      Use an under-eye cream. Use a concealer that will camouflage the dark under-eye circles. It's important to use a concealer that matches your undertone (namely, yellow, peach (for bluish circles), tan, light brown, etc.) After applying the concealer, set it with a light dusting of translucent powder.

      Treat your skin while you sleep. There are overnight facial masques that may help reduce the appearance of puffiness or discoloration, or you can make your own. And try this simple remedy: just before going to bed, take a piece of cloth and wet it a little with cold water. Squeeze out any excess water and place it over your eyes as you sleep.

  21. QUESTION:

  24. QUESTION:
    do tea bags reduce eye wrinkles?
    dose the whole using tea bags on ur eyes help reduce puffiness and wrinkles true? and dose it have to be a certain type of tea? i only have green tea mixed berry by Lipton, would that work to? please if any body knows and can explain what to do ill really appreciated it, thanks :)

    • ANSWER:
      Placing eye bags on your eyes will NOT get rid of wrinkles and most likely puffiness. Tea has antioxidants that can prevent free radical damage that break down collagen and elastic fibers. Stop with the tea mess. Just drink it. Lol. Please. There are better topical ways to get tea antioxidants on skin correctly. Plus, there are dozens of other antioxidants that works as well if not better. You may have eye wrinkles for several reasons. See my other responses (best answers) for more info. But just in a gist: it could be that you 1) sun exposure, 2) squint a lot (thus, wear UV-glasses) OR 3) rub your eyes. Read sources for more info.

      You also need to devise a well-designed regimen with well-formulated products that not only reduce inflammation and promote collagen production but also provide antioxidants and sun protection. All the products must be suitable for your unique skin type.

      TREATMENT OPTIONS

      Chemical Exfoliant helps unglue the dead skin cells on the surface of skin, thus, brining up healthy skin cells to the surface. This gives you that soft "glowing" skin. Over-the-counter chemical exfoliant are low in concentration and are not meant to induce dramatic results like "chemical peels". The stronger the acid the more dramatic the result albeit higher irritation levels. Over-the-counter usually go from 8%-30% alpha hydroxy acids such as glycolic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, malic acid, etc. Glycolic acid is the smallest acid and has the most research behind it. Salicylic acid is most likely in a regulated concentration of 1-2%. Option: Alpha Hydrox AHA Enhanced Lotion with 10% glycolic acid OR M2 Skin Refinish 20% (10% mandelic acid & 10% malic aicd) OR M.D. Forte Skin Rejuvenation Lotion III with 30% glycolic acid. Please PLEASE be extra careful when apply acid near the eye area. There is research stating that 10% glycolic acid can stimulate collagen over time. Yes, it can take months to see result. You need to have patience and compliance with sunscreen, too. If you are prone to dark circles, acid thin the skin and make blood vessels so know that.

      Retinoids/VitaminA - Retinoids such as Tretinoin (Retin-A, Renova) or Tazorac (Tazarotene) can give some improvement. Why? Research shows that retinoids can promote collagen production along with other wonderful benefits to the skin. Retinoids are prescription products; therefore, you need to visit your board-certified dermatologist to obtain one. If you do not have the luxury or you do not have the tolerance for prescription retinoid, you can try over-the-counter Vitamin A retinol products. Retinol may help, but it is less effective because it needs to be broken down first before it can be active as a retinoid. The higher the concentration the stronger it is and the more potential you can get an irritation. Options: try Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Cream, Night Formula OR SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.5 Refining Night Cream OR SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 Maximum Strength Refining Night Cream. The higher the retinol concentration, the better the result, the higher the irritation potential. Be warned.

      Topical Vitamin C function as a fantastic antioxidant and collagen promoter. It can scavenge free radical to prevent wrinkles in the future. There are several types of vitamin C. Original vitamin C is "L-ascorbic acid"; it has the most research backing its effectiveness on its variety of skin benefits. The problem with the original is that it is quite unstable in formulation, so there is a need for stabilized vitamin C such as tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate. Options: PCA Skin (pHaze 16) C-Strength 15% (l-ascorbic acid) OR Dermalogica Age Smart MAP-15 Regenerator with 15% magnesium ascorbyl phosphate OR Paula's Choice RESIST Super Antioxidant Concentrate with 5% tetrahexydecyl ascorbate.

  28. QUESTION:
    Guy wants to know- how do I prevent wrinkles/bags around my eyes?
    I'm not interested in anything too elaborate or expensive. I just want a basic way to keep from getting bags and wrinkles around my eyes because it makes you look old. I'm 29 and starting to notice it for the first time. Thanks!

    • ANSWER:
      I have the same problem too!
      Place black or chamomile teabags soaked in cold water on your eyelids for 15 minutes. The tannic acid in tea will constrict the blood vessels and reduce bags.
      Or you could place slices of cucumber, potatoes, or apple over the puffy eyelids for 10-15 minutes. Potatoes will reduce bags and wrinkles under the eyes and apples have pectin which aids in anti-oxidation. Do these things for up to 4 weeks for best results.

      Avoid:
      sodium
      caffiene
      diuretic pills
      stress

      Hope I helped!

  29. QUESTION:
    is preparation h, good for wrinkles and under eye bags?

    • ANSWER:
      The active ingredient found in pile cream is formulated to reduce swelling with the aim of decreasing pain with piles. This being so, many people use it to decrease the puffiness or swelling around the eyes. It is a short term effect only and doesn't remove it on a permanent basis. Caution should be used if using this method to make sure there is no contact with the eye its self, plus long term use of some products which have a steroid content will cause thinning of the skin around the eyes which could lead to splitting and eventually end up making the situation worse. The best advice given by a 'friendly open minded pharmacist' is that if you are intending to do this only use it as a quick fix for special occasions and not as an every day part of your beauty regime. Long term, be careful not to touch, rub or generally abuse your eye area too much as this can result in dark areas as the very thin skin of your eye area bruises easier than normal. Plus drink more water - drinking more water saturates your cells and improves the appearance of fine lines.

    • ANSWER:

      for bags (puffiness under your eyes)- your can clean and slice potatoes or cucumbers and set them on your eyes(it really works) or cool bags of camimile tea! these might not get rid of them completely but it helps, also try getting in another hour of sleep and drink more water

  32. QUESTION:
    I don't really have wrinkles or bags under my eyes, but a indentation?
    I don't truly have bags or wrinkles under my eyes. I have more or less a dent under each eye, about an inch under them. I've tried to treat them like bags and wrinkles, but they're a physical part of my face.
    How can I fade them or make them less noticeable? People always ask if I'm tired, or call me bug-eyed but I sleep enough and can't change my eyes.

    • ANSWER:
      Me too! Isn't it frustrating?
      I found adding powder to cover them or light-reflecting powder works best... I don't really think there's anything we can do!
      I think it's because our skin is thinner over under the eye, I'll do a little research and get back to you if I find anything :)
      And don't worry, there is plenty of us out there! :)

    • ANSWER:
      These safe natural treatments really work and can permanently get rid of them..

      This is a response I received from wannabeblue28:
      "Hi Mukunda M. I have just been rubbing my face with oil using my fingers and hands and It has made a HUGE difference in my complexion after just one night. ...... My skin looks so much tighter everywhere and i no longer have bags under my eyes! Thank you so much for your post, I have been suffering with acne and under-eye circles since i was young."

      She had seen an answer I gave about how vigorous face massaging with essential oils had permanently got rid of my acne and also removed my bags/circles. The massages greatly tighten skin under and around the eye area and the bags go away.

      The most helpful ones are: Using both hands together (1) Do long up and down sweeps close to nose from chin area up to near eyes. (2) Do another up and back at an angle from chin point to cheek bone. (3) Do fast up and down massage close to eye from cheek bones at an angle of 45 degrees (on your crows feet). If do all 3 for 10 minutes daily - will markedly tighten skin and diminish the circles in the first two days. Use any oil. Olive is good. To avoid skin pulling first make skin taught by partially opening mouth and pulling lips firmly back against teeth(tightens most of face)

      Additionally facial yoga exercises help a great deal. Find on Youtube. Do the "The lion face" and try to hold for 30 seconds. A variation of that is protruding the tongue as if trying to touch tip of nose with tip of tongue.

      YOGA MEDITATION is a great help.and is easy to do. Contact me for more info. It enables you to completely relax and gives you deep, restful sleep. 6 hours of restful sleep is considerably more beneficial than 8 or more hours of non restful sleep.

  36. QUESTION:
    short of surgery what is the best eye cream for bags and wrinkles?

    • ANSWER:
      It really depends on your skin type. I have drier skin and am prone to wrinkles, so Clinique All About Eyes Rich works well for me. The thing I like is that they have a general use formula (All
      About Eyes), a formula for drier skin (All About Eyes Rich), and some heavier duty products as well for older skin. If you're in an area with a Clinique counter in a department store, you can always ask to try the product before you buy it, and they even have some samples. They have always been good with returns, too. The Clinique website has good information on the products, so you can make sure you know what you're looking for before you go in. If you wear contacts, ask your ophthalmologist or optometrist about chemicals you should avoid.

      Asker's Comment:"I tried this a day or 2 ago, OMGosh it workedd out amazingly, thx some much and thx to you who ansered, they were all good answers. =D"

      Vigorous face massaging with oils quickly and permanently removed my bags/circles.and all other under eye problems. Extra virgin olive oil works well for many. It's noncomedogenic so does not clog, cause breakouts or make skin oily. Massage greatly tightens skin under and around the eye area and the bags and`all other problems go away. For quickest results massage quite fast with front and tips of fingers and palms. Use both hands and do forward and back massage.Circular massage will not work
      (1) Do long up and down sweeps close to nose from chin area up to near eyes.
      (2) Do another up and back at an angle from chin point to cheek bone.
      (3) Do fast up and down massage close to eye from cheek bones at an angle of 45 degrees (on your crows feet).

  38. QUESTION:
    does changing your sleeping time give you eye bags?
    it's summer here so i sleep everyday from 3-5 am and i wake up like 11am-2pm. will i have any problems like eye bags or wrinkles?? btw i'm only 14.

    • ANSWER:
      Much of the time, those "eye bags" aren't really just from not sleeping. Often times, the dark look is just veins under the skin, while other times it's caused by bruising or allergies or a bad diet. However, lack of sleep can cause paleness of the skin, which could lead to the bags being more visible. So long as you're actually getting enough sleep though, I'd say you'd be fine.

  39. QUESTION:
    How can I get rid of the wrinkles and bags under my eyes!?
    I'm only 13 and I have these dark bags and wrinkles under my eyes and I have absolutely no idea how to get rid of them! Please help! Also note that I do get a lot of sleep, it isn't a sleeping problem.

    • ANSWER:
      Use a good under eye cream that contains retinol. A brand that works well for me is by Roc, it really reduced darkness, wrinkles, and bags. When I ran out I started using regular extra virgin olive oil to great effect, my under eyes look clear and bright! Just apply a tiny bit with a cotton pad and make sure its "Extra virgin" olive oil only so it does not clog your pores.

      Invest in good skin care, you won't regret it! Drink plenty of water, exercise, and eat healthy. Mostly fruits and vegetables.

    • ANSWER:
      This truly works and is a quick and permanent solution. It got rid of mine and those of wannabeblue 28 and Candi:) below.

      wannabeblue28: “Hi Mukunda M. I have just been rubbing my face with oil using my fingers and hands and It has made a HUGE difference in my complexion after just one night. …… My skin looks so much tighter everywhere and i no longer have bags under my eyes! Thank you so much for your post, I have been suffering with acne and under-eye circles since i was young.”

      Candi:) "I tried this a day or 2 ago, OMGosh it workedd out amazingly, thx some much and thx to you who ansered, they were all good answers. =D"

      Specialized massaging greatly tightens skin under and around the eye area and the bags go away. First make skin tight by opening mouth 3/4' and pulling lips firmly back against teeth. You will see that it very much tightens where the bags are and so it reduces them as you apply massage and then massaging itself makes the tightening greater.
      Use both hands. Massage quite vigorously with front of palms and fingers held together:.
      (1) Long up and down sweeps close to nose from chin area up to near eyes.
      (2) Do another up and back at an angle from near chin point to cheek bone.
      (3) Do fast up and down massage close to eye from cheek bones at an angle of 45 degrees (on crows feet area).

      Do for several minutes daily (not necessarily in one session) – skin will become tighter under and around eye and the circles will visibly diminish in the first two or three days.

      Use any natural oil. Extra virgin olive and E.V. coconut oils work well for many. They are noncomedogenic - so do not clog or enlarge pores or cause breakouts

      Mouth and nose: See my many other answers for very effective safe natural treatments.

      YOGA MEDITATION is a great help also and is easy to do. It enables you to completely relax and gives you deep, restful sleep and relieves you of `all anxiety problems. 6 hours of deep restful sleep is considerably more beneficial than 8 or 9 more less restful. Siddha Yoga has very effective meditation instructions You can find them online.

    Wrinkles,lines and bags under the eyes.Getting worse fast.How do I fix it?
    Over the past 3 weeks I have been getting very severe lines and wrinkles and bags under the eyes and it is worsening fast! It has gone from a question of vanity to a medical concern! I do need to sleep better and buy some eye cream but I am 33 and this is happening almost overnight and is dramatically worse each day! Why?And how do I fix it?

    • ANSWER:
      If you are looking for home remedy to reduce wrinkles, try this.
      Smear honey on your face and leave it for as long as possible (but 5-10mins a day will do). then rinse off with tepid water mixed with a teaspoon of cider vinegar - this has a neutral pH and will act as a toner.

      And if you have some bucks, Lifecell anti wrinkle cream would be a good choice. You can have more information here.

  48. QUESTION:
    Is there an eye cream for wrinkles and dark circles that does not cause tiny white bumps under the eyes?
    I have been trying out different eye creams around my eyes. I've noticed that I've started to form wrinkles, dark circles and slight baginess under my eyes. I've used St. Ives Vit. K cream for the dark circles, L'oreal Hydrafresh, Nivea Eyezone (with Q10), L'oreal RevitaLift Eye and Oil of Olay Total Effects. But I don't use them long enough to see the results. The problem is when I use these creams under my eyes, tiny white bumps (like whiteheads) form on my lower eyelids. I only apply small amounts of the cream. Still, the white bumps appear. Is there an alternative to eye creams that fight wrinkles and bags without causing the skin around my eyes to break out? I have oily, sensitive skin. Please help.

    • ANSWER:
      Hello,

      Dark circles and puffy eyes are one of the most frequently asked how-to-cure skincare related questions. They may be caused by a variety of factors like hereditary, lack of sleep, not enough water, stress, age, lack of certain vitamins and minerals in the diet, overloading on alcohol, etc. However, there are natural ways you can dramatically reduce, if not eliminate them. The important aspect to remember is that most skincare problems are internal problems relating to the diet. There is no specific food that causes a skin problem in itself, but it may be certain ingredients in certain foods that cause the skin to erupt.

      Apply these techniques to the letter to see a difference in a short time.

      Puffy and baggy eyes First, make sure you are getting at least 8 hours of sleep a night, drinking 8-10 glasses of water, eliminating alcohol, and are reducing stress as much as possible. To help with reducing stress, stretch for at least 10 minutes a day, exercise, and do something you enjoy. It is helpful to have a notebook by your bed to write 2 (or more) things you learned or cherished that day. This practice helps to put the day in a better perspective.

      Next, you should tweak your eating plan slightly to expedite results. If there is one thing you can do to expedite your results, avoid salty foods. Salty foods are a huge contributing factor to puffy and baggy eyes because they contribute to water retention. Water retention makes the body (as well as the skin) appear bloated and puffier. Under the eye region is very delicate, so the puffiness is more apparent there than on other parts of the face.

      For the natural solution: Purchase organic wheat germ oil from a health food store and apply under the eyes and around the eyes twice a day.

      Dark under eye circles You should follow the same criteria stated for puffy and baggy eyes to avoid salty foods. However, you may try these secrets.

      Secret 1: Mix turmeric powder with raw pineapple juice. The trick is pineapple juice must be taken from a raw pineapple, not a canned version. Mix them together until a paste-like formation forms. Gently spread this mixture under the eyes. Let it stay on the eyes for 15-20 minutes. Rinse it off with lukewarm water. Do this procedure at nighttime for a week. You should see visible results within that time frame.

      Secret 2: For serious dark circles, purchase almond oil (the wheat germ oil is more appropriate for puffy eyes) from a health food store. Gently pat the oil under the eyes and around the eye. Do this in the morning and evening to see fast results.

      Dietary change: Eat 2 cups (or more) of organic spinach everyday for either lunch or dinner. It's convenient and best to buy frozen organic spinach or organic spinach leaves, as non-organic spinach is high in pesticide residuals. In addition, eat 1/4 to 1/2 cup of raw almonds (must not be roasted or salted) 3 hours after eating dinner. In addition to eliminating salty foods, doing these dietary changes will quickly speed up the results.

      I hope this helps.
