What would you suggest for mid 40’s, hollow deep set eyes, deep crows feet?

I think some of it is genetic as my eyes are deep set like my fathers and prone to a lot of wrinkling when I laugh. I sort of don’t mind but I would like to soften it maybe.

My skin is prone to redness so whatever I use can’t be too strong. Currently I use astral cream, the nip and tuck glycolic pads once a day and Vaseline around my eyes at night. In the day I use a foundation with a SPF but I avoid the sun, never have sunbathed really.

For what it's worth, I think laughter lines are lovely!
Vaseline might not be helping.

It was a tip I got on here lol

Botox in the problem areas maybe?

Hylauronic acid cream, argan or mirula or primrose oil would be much better than vaseline for your undereye.
They wont do anything dramatic though. Tear trough fillers and botox?
Mine are better after quitting alcohol (so i was more hydrated and got better sleep) and sorting out my iron anemia.

Retinol.

You need a moisturiser with a bit more oomph than Astral (and I speak as someone never without a ginormous pot- I use it on my neck and my face when it's really tight and dry in winter) but after cleansing and serums.
Try a Hyaluronic acid, a moisturizer with peptides/ceramides, a vit C serum.
To moisturise the eye area I love Kiehl's creamy avocado, but the lines need more than that.
