Eye creams for the over 40s

What's your favourite eye cream ?

I've just used the last of my current tube. I don't usually use any in the morning overwise my eyeliner disappears so I'd like a decent night one. I have the wrinkles, bags and circles you'd expect....

Decleor Aroma Lisse.

Sorry but no cream will remove bags, wrinkles or circles.
If they did we'd not have any!

Bags- surgery or tear trough fillers or creams that dehydrate and tighten the skin temporarily.
Wrinkles- Botox or creams that fill the crevices.
Circles- a good concealer.

pink I can but dream ! Seriously I don't expect a cream to hold back time or fix what a lack of sleep for 8 years has done. But something to make my bags feel nice would be great. When I was younger I'd use L'Oreal but now it makes my skin red and sore - I guess my wrinkly bags are more sensitive now !

Thanks for the suggestions - I'm going to take a look at them now.

Kiehl's creamy eye treatment here. But I only use it at night it's too greasy for day wear.

CaptainJamesTKirk · 24/01/2015 14:57

Btw Kiehl's are usually very good if you ask for a sample because you want to make sure it's a good product for you, before you buy the actual pot.

I second La Roche Posay Redermic les yeux. Excellent stuff, and very good value.

whatever doesn't make you itch. None willl have any effect.

just been comparing the ingredients of the French stuff and Nivea. Both mostly water and glycerin. The expensive one has retinol down the list. No percentages given so it could be in homeopathic quantities.

I bought a No7 Time Delay (it was 50% off) in a tube with a rollerball applicator, seems good so far.

Best thing for me is a good layer of SBC Collagen gel at night (though I look lush ) Grin

Genefique Yeux by Lancome is working a treat so far for me. It has a light texture and you need such a tiny bit a pot lasts ages.
