I am looking for some sort of miracle, but don't really expect to find it.

However, is there anything out there that actually reduces puffy eye bags? If anyone knows, please pass it on.

The only thing I've ever found that worked miraculously well was some cream I bought in Lloyds chemists. However, it was grainy, gritty and unpleasant and wore off after a few hours. Not recommended except in emergencies!

Try snake venom eye cream, it's cheap, it works and seems to get rave reviews which is why I tried it. You have nothing to lose at that price.

Hello, you might want to try out using a poly peptide eye cream. I got to know about this through a friend. Not just able diminish eyebag fast, it can so help out in removing wrinkle instantly (can use it as an anti-wrinkle cream). It will be perfect for special occasions.

The Ordinary ( online cosmetic company ) makes a fantastic caffeine under eye product for about a fiver- keep it in the fridge and it works really well.

After long research, I got dermalmd under eye serum and I waited for a month before I waited for a month before I wrote this review. I wanted to share its effects thoroughly. And it was awesome. I love the cucumber-cool like the effect it has. It totally removed all the puffiness my eyes had in the mornings. I also love that it is non-greasy and easily absorbed by the skin. It has a light formulation that is so effective in moisturizing and rejuvenating the thin skin around my eyes. I look younger because of the results. You must try it yourself.

Touché l'eclat by YSL is the light reflecting concealer you put under your eyes. Very good it is too.

You can try :
1. Place warm teabags over your eyes but under eye socket (cannot get near) for a few minutes.

2. Soothe your eyes with cold cucumbers.

3. Try Instantly Ageless within 2 minutes, but it's only a quick and temporary fix

4. Try LUMINESCE Cellular Rejuvenation Serum, it helps to remove eye bags, dark circles, wrinkles,
fine lines, stretch marks, heals wound, face lift, whitening and reveal your unique glow. It's Paraben free.
Even my cousin-in-law currently is using. From his look, nobody is able to guess his age correctly.

Hope this will help to solve your problem.

Just put it on and waft it with a paper or magazine, you can actually see the bags disappearing,
Worth a try,i like it
You can get several applications out of one tube, but just pat it on thinly,or it can leave a powdery residue

valeriej43 Fri 14-Jul-17 10:11:00

Leesa i use it all the time, it used to be quite expensive, but cheaper now, as there is another product come out but more expensive, and it really does work, it is only temporary, but lasts all day, and sometimes in to the next day
You can buy it on Amazon or Ebay

Leesa Sun 09-Jul-17 16:27:18

I see this is a old-ish post but I had to reply to see if anyone else had used 'Instantly ageless'?
I am thinking of buying some.
Was it really that good valeriej43?

Nanabilly Thu 06-Jul-17 06:55:16

Do you use eye cream? I ask because when I went to a day spa and had a couple of mini facials and a facial workshop at the end of the day the beautiful who was taking the class told us that she bags can bed caused by putting she cream on incorrectly.
Never put it near the inner eye as it causes puffiness by moisture going into the tear ducts. Just pat (not rub)it into the outer two thirds of the eye area

Try Instantly ageless, its really good, you just dab it on and the bags miraculously disappear, you can get it on ebay or Amazon, 5 little ampoules for under £10 you can get a few applications out of them,
Some hairdressers sell it, which is how i found out about them
You might not want to use them all the time,but for special occasions

Thanks ChewBacca - sorry seem to have invaded another thread!

A very vain male friend of ours had plastic surgery to reduce his eye bags. He insisted that his eye surgeon, after laser treatment, told him it was helpful for his recovery.
We went out for lunch with him and his wife two weeks ago and the bags were back as big as ever perhaps proving it is a temporary measure.

I've tried a lip stain Marian and it was dreadful to get off! The slightest smudge in the wrong place stuck with me all day, no way could it be wiped off. If you have a very steady hand, give it a go, but stock up on some heavy duty make remover.

Marian1412 Wed 26-Apr-17 20:15:21

Has anyone tried a lip stain? I want a natural look without a glossy finish

That will teach me to butt in. The Field Marshall's name was Robertson. Ahhh. Anno D.

Nandalot Mon 03-Oct-16 11:04:59

Apropos of nothing on this thread, I am intrigued by your name, William Robinson. There was a famous Field Marshall by that name who was the first to rise to that rank from private. Or is it the full name of Will Robinson from 'Lost in Space'? Or perhaps perfectly random? Sorry everyone, will bow out now.

WilliamRobinson Mon 03-Oct-16 10:09:18

You should drink plenty of water, ice-cold water, apply aloe vera. Its very effective.

overthehill apparently stuff which is light/white works by bouncing the light, taking the emphasis away from the area.

Never thought about white lipstick-what a brilliant ideasmile.

I've thought about kids' white face paint, though. Haven't done it yet..
