Anyone used eyelid tape?

Hi so I've been using eyelid tape for a few days now as I have hooded eyes and I love how open my eyes look with them and the double eyelid I have I look so much younger. I had botox that made my lids more hooded so tried the tape.and love the effect..

However I've noticed without them they have gone saggier and more hooded!
I am gutted as I love the way I look with them on but I'm worried i am going to make my natural eye lids worse :(

I can't afford surgery. Has anyone else experienced this with eyelid tape?

I'd think its more the natural aging of the eye causing further sagging than the use of tape for a few hours in the daytime.
Depending how heavy/droopy the lids are, you might get the surgery on the NHS. Have you discussed blepharoplasty with your GP and how the drooping affects you?

Hi I'm 29 so didn't think they'd be this bad. Yes I can barely put mascara on due to the sagging but I feel the tape has made it worse but I love the look when I use the tape ! Just worried it's going to stretch my skin and make alot worse..
