I'm 40 years old, have naturally oily skin, Wrinkles aren't a major problem, and i have fine crows feet, serious brown cirlces, and puffiness on my lower eye socket, and fair to moderate heaviness above my eyelids, I have had a chemical peel, (fantastic) but now the dark circles round my eyes are really quite prounced, as my new skin is very naturally luminescent. I decided that rather than covering my circles in make up, as i no longer need to wear a heavy foundation, I went to town to find some eye cream. After checking out this site, i had a list of creams i wanted to test, however not many brands had testers. Dior is good, that was the favourite, beating pots of £125. and tubes of £75, until that is i tried the clinique, a tad better than Doir in my opinion, even after 1st application i saw a noticeable improvement in the puffiness along my bottom eye socket, and outer corners were smooth, of the fine lines which accompany crows feet. Day by day the dark circles reduced, and now i only have a slight darkness just under my tearducts.the eye lids have firmed, and has also become lighter. I paid £20 for a 15ml pot, plus i got 80 boots points, (always a bonus) and a little goes a very long way. The one piece of advice which the Cinique lady told me, was many people 'overdose' on eyecreams, and they are designed to be used sparsely. Its definately true, I'm very happy with results, and its only been 4 weeks.
