Surgery for Baggy Eyes

September 30, 2008 at 12:40 pm · Filed under eye care ·Tagged , , ,

Oh yes women, I have considered the possibility of surgery for my baggy eyes. I work in a company that runs on a three shift clock which translates to a 24 hour business. There is a great possibility of being assigned in any of those shifts, which exposes me 8 hours, lack of sleep, in front of the computer. It has taken its toll on my eyes, and I have suffered from serious bulges under the eyes.

Based on my research, baggy eyes CAN be treated surgically. This procedure is called blepharoplasty, which involves a laser, removing excess skin and fat deposits from the upper and lower eye lids. Of course, since this is a cosmetic procedure, it is quite expensive, all for the love of beauty, and is not covered by any insurances.

I am glad I decided not to push through with surgery. A few of my friends who have tried it, can’t seem to put a stop to additional surgeries, and just continue with another, and another, or a repeat. Natural anti-aging methods such as treatments and a better lifestyle is still the way to eternal youth. I would suggest trying blepharoplasty only when advised by an optometrist due to medical reasons. I am a firm believer that natural anti-wrinkle and anti aging products and methods can provide you with the answer to your skin care problems.

Best Eye Creams = Expensive

The best eye creams always come with a price. True or False?

As already discussed in so many blogs, forums, magazine and online articles, and even in coffee shops, when talking about skin problems, eye wrinkles are the most difficult to eliminate based on votation. Dark Circles in the eyes or puffiness may be remedied by different products, but that stubborn eye wrinkle always remains.

There are a certain few wrinkle eye creams in the market that actually show results on their promised deadlines, but how much are they? You’re right, definitely expensive. I’m not necessarily a fan of ostentatious spending for beauty, but in my opinion, if these eye wrinkles affect the way you interact with people, your work, and how you present yourself, its worth spending for. I for example, may not necessarily face thousands of people everyday, nor do I appear on television, but even simple interaction with co-employees matter, what with the so many fresh faces you see flooding the office. Appearance is important for me, not for other people’s opinion, but for my confidence as well.

I’m willing to pay the price, but does this apply to all eye creams? Of course not! I have known many friends who have tried piles upon piles of cream, thinking the more expensive the cream, the better. This is not true, which is proven after their months of use of certain wrinkle eye creams, thinking, “this one, this is the best eye cream, and I have a hundred dollar price tag to prove it.”

A lot of average-priced eye creams may work for some women, and I most definitely congratulate those. Finding the right anti aging product isn’t just a walk in the park. The only point I’m trying to make is, don’t be too pessimisstic with expensive eye creams. If you’re sure it will work, and if it does work, a month of use is more productive than a year’s us of cheap eye cream. You’re actually spending without getting results!

To make it simple:

Best eye creams=expensive
All expensive eye creams= not necessarily the best eye cream

Eye make-up? First Try Eye Creams

September 5, 2008 at 12:16 pm · Filed under Uncategorized ·Tagged , ,

Good make-up highlights your best points, they don’t totally hide your flaws. So before you start thinking of how to do that hottest eye make up effect, first think of how to take better care of your skin, and how to make it beautiful under all those covers.

Imagine putting on your foundation over skin that has folds and lines. It may even out the color, but not those creases on your skin. Back then, when I have not begun my research on improving my wrinkles and skin flaws, I was very dependent on make-up. Concealer for those discolorations, tons of foundation for wrinkles and rough skin, but I always end up shrugging my shoulders, thinking, oh well, this is better than nothing. The problem is, while applying make-up, the skin flaws are so visible with my bright lights and huge mirror, and I often get depressed, no matter how good and expensive my make-up is.

If you think putting on wrinkle creams or moisturizing lotions are such a hassle and eat up your time, think of the additional minutes you need to put on more and more make-up, retouch every how many hours, and countless moments you would stare at your skin on the mirror. Think about it.
