That said this is not be confused with the initial tingling sensation that a lot of people have which is just a normal sensation however it can be a sign that your skin may not be that tough and it may be sensitive to certain chemicals and materials.

In fact the skin around the eyes is all the more sensitive because of the fact that it is very very think and has less of oil glands in it. The skin has a very fine layer and that can easily react very strongly to certain skin care products. The itching and inflammation cause the collagen to break down and the skin getting damaged.

Apart from the correct cream you need to be careful when applying the cream or the gel.

Never apply the cream to the eyelids. A lot of eye creams say that it is OK to apply the cream to the lids however it is better not to do it. Always apply the cream below the eye and then spread it around. Do not apply too much pressure and always try to use your ring finger for the eye cream spreading.

Get the skin Analysis done

Well this is a must of you do not know your skin type. Of course that will begin once you have used a cream and that cream has caused the itching.

Look for ingredients and Manufacturers disclosure

Most of the manufactures will have the disclosure that the cream is hypoallergenic. This helps at least to avoid a certain type of chemicals. That said the manufacturers may not have tested out all the chemicals and each individual access can be modified.

Make sure that the eye cream at least has the soothing agents which are the Aloe Vera and Green tea. The most common irritants are things like Ammonia, Arnica, camphor, horsetail and lavender. Remember there are many more and you will need tops specifically seek the dermatologists advice to find the ingredient to which you are allergic. Again these in certain quantities and in certain mixtures may do well and cause no irritation.

Let us talk about the skin under the eyes as well as around the eyes. The skin is generally very dry because there are less of oil glands in this area. On top of it the whole are is very very thin. So it becomes a really susceptible to fine lines and wrinkles. There are several reasons by which the skin becomes dry and it is mainly due to these reasons.

The number one reason is that the skin is exposed to the sun. The sun has the harmful UV ray which when they come in contact with the skin damage the skin causing it to dry and have a lot flaking and wrinkles. So make sure that you do not get exposed to sunlight directly between 11a.m and 2 pm. Also you need to make sure that you have the sunscreen lotion applied when you venture out.

Lack of water intake – In our daily routine you need to make sure that you have minimum of eight glasses of water which when not there causes the overall moisture deficiency in the body including the skin round the eyes.

Smokers lines is the most common thing that happens when you smoke excessively and the reason is that smoking causes the skin to go dry. Now this dryness causes the fine lines and wrinkles to show up and as I said earlier the area around the eyes is the first place where this shows up.

Makeup is another cause for the dry skin.

The lack of vitamins mainly the vitamin A and Vitamin B causes the skin to be dry.

The cure for dry skin is as outlined below

Drink lots of water

Avoid smoking

Avoid sun and use a good sunscreen as well wear eyeshades

In the home the moisture can be absorbed by the heaters in winter so use good humidifiers

To get good moisture around the eyes use the eye pads especially the home made ones. These eye pads can help soothe the eyes and the skin around the eyes.

Now that said there are several eye creams that come in the market which are meant for the dry skin around the eyes.

In the market there are several creams available which are specifically targeted at the dry skin.

In fact there are specific cleansers which are meant for dry skin. Use those to clean your face and specifically the area around the eyes. Then there are toners for the dry skin.

In fact the cosmetic industry has evolved so much that there are

Moisturizers for dry skin and sunscreens for dry skin.

Nest comes the actual creams which are there in abundance and they are mainly of two types which are the hydrating serums and the Intense eye cream treatments. These hydrating serums are mostly glorified moisturizers though they have more ability to penetrate the skin then the moisturizers as they are serums. The serums by virtue of the way they are made are water based and have more ability to deliver the moisturizing agents to your skin.

The puffiness in the eyes is because of the accumulation of the toxins as well as can be because of the fact that there is poor blood circulation.

Puffy eyes are also a major cause of the wrinkles around the eyes as the skin near the eyes is delicate and it can cause the major issues with the skin being too much stretched.

Most of the females who wear makeup all day can get this and that is why it is necessary that you remove all traces of makeup and allow the skin to breath. This helps in blood circulation. In fact it is the night time when the cells get regenerated so make sure that you use a good makeup remover and the follow it up with a good night cream.

Puffy eyes is sign that toxins have not flushed out of under the yes so make sure that you dirnk water as soon as you get up and also make sure that you massage the area under the eyes gently.

You can use the eye gel pads or the cucumber eye pads to eliminate the bags or the pouches under the eyes. There are chamomile tea bags that can be used to get rid of puffy eyes

Also there are creams that make sure that the puffy eyes are reduced by increasing the circulation and these creams are specifically designed to stimulate the circulation.

Apart from all this there are surgical methods available which can make sure that the bags under the eyes are removed and that is generally included as part of the face lift.

For droopy eyelids generally there is surgery available which is known as blepharoplasty.

The crow’s feet are not only limited to people who belong to fairer sex and in fact they also are there in the men.

The bets thing to do is to start using the eye creams very early so that you can prevent the wrinkles and as they say that prevention is better than cure.

Also smoking can cause those dreaded wrinkles around the eyes so make sure that you do not smoke. Smokers lines are caused because of the heavy smoking.

Always use a sunscreen when going out in the sun. Also wear sunglasses to avoid direct sun.

Make sure that your exercise regularly as well as make sure that you eat very healthy food.

In terms of getting rid of the crow’s feet you can get some artificial treatments and these can be collagen injections and Botox injections. Collagen injections can only be a temporary measure and then there are the Botox injections which cause the weak muscles to ease and give the appearance of good skin. Each botox injection can cost about $400.

A new treatment for getting rid of wrinkles is the laser resurfacing treatment in which the upper layer of the skin is removed and thus getting the new skin underneath it.

Some of the creams that can be used to get treated for the crows feet are

Olay Regenerist Eye Lifting Serum.

Use creams which have alpha hydroxyl acids, retinols and copper peptides. Specifically using creams which have glycolic acid can help a lot.

A lot of people are now turning to the natural product to cure the crows feet and these include things line egg white face masks.

The skin around the eyes is delicate and hence you will have to be base you choice on the fact that if you use the wrong eye cream then you will have trouble with the eyes mainly with a lot of itchiness as well as a lot of watery eyes.

The main point here is to find out with which ingredients the eye cream is made and how that will be able to either prevent the wrinkles or reduce the dark circles or even reduce the puffy eyes.

Now for the anti aging eye treatment you will have to use a good overall eye cream whereas if you are using a cure for dark circles then the ingredients may be different .

Common Ingredients are

Caffeine

Retinol(Vitamin A) – This stimulates the cell regeneration and helps in collagen production.

Vitamin C – The most powerful one in this category is the Cellex-C skin care products

Alpha Hydroxy Acids

Copper peptides

Kojic Acid

Silica

Haloxyl Eyeliss – Haloxyl specifically has the peptides to counter the dark circles

Neuropeptides – These are good to use by the people who have sensitive skin and that helps as retinol is very strong and generally people with sensitive eyes will not be to withstand it.

Vitamin E – The very common ingredient in the eye creams as it helps to soothe and protect the skin.

Green tea – Helps because of its anti inflammatory properties. It is good to be used for droopy eyes.

It also states that it has “Under Eye Cream with Derma-Refine Technology™”.

The product is aimed at both the upper eye area and the under eye area. It is aimed at making sure that the brow bone area is tighter and gets a good lift.

Pluses

A bit expensive

Ingredients

Sweet Almond Extract for under eye cream

Instruction to apply

For long lasting results use the cream and the gel for four weeks.

Apply it twice daily

Upper Eye gel for the eyelid

Under eye cream for under the eyes and cure of dark circles.

Wait for the gel to dry up as it is thick and can take a good 20 minutes to dry.

The gel can also be applied to under the eyes in case you have puffy eyes though it is recommended only for upper eye area.

Apply for four weeks atleast to get the maximum benefit out of the cream and the gel.

At the price it is a win win product especially from Avon. This product for the said price and the new clinically tested technology called as Dermalift is the best thing that you can get. More and more companies are now launching the dual effect products to give you more bang for the buck. That said sometimes it may be better to invest in separate powerful solution for the upper area of the eyes and the under eye area.

That is why it is important that you should know as to which cream will eliminate the dark circles or rings from under your eyes.

Overall it is a good under eye cream sorry eye rescue however I will suggest that for this price or slightly more price you can go for the Strivectin SD eye cream. That is very very effective.

Now if you have fine lines under your eyes as well as you have the dark circles under your eyes then you can apply specific creams that are labeled as the under eye wrinkle creams.

Kinerase under eye rescue cream is one such cream which is said to work wonders for the under eye area. I have reviewed the Strivectin SD eye cream and the other product from Kinerase which is the Kinerase Intensive eye cream however the use of this cream was to make sure that the under eye area is enhanced and I get that youthful look.

Read the Kinerase under eye rescue cream review and I would suggest that you use this cream along with other Kinerase products to have an overall beauty treatment.

Overall this product is worth a try just because it is by Kinerase. It definitely works however there are more powerful under eye creams in the market which can help get the results quickly.

That said everyone has a different requirements when it comes to the anti wrinkle eye creams because of the skin type they have and the kind of problems they have.

I have done the review of the Strivectin Eye cream review in my last post and I then got my hands on the Kinerase intensive eye care cream. Here is my Kinerase Intensive Eye care review.

This cream says that it is for fine lines and wrinkles. Well this is true for all eye creams.

Pluses

.125 kinetin – A high percentage to deliver good results

Helps to get rid of crows feet

It is great for reducing the puffiness of the eyes.

Minuses

Kinerase C6 peptide is expensive

Not very good for sensitive eyes

Ingredients

It has kinetin (N6-furfuryladenine) which is said to improve the fine lines and wrinkles

Citric Acid – it works as an anti oxidant

Instructions to Use

Some eye products can cause irritation so make sure that you wash off the cream if there is intense irritation.

Kinetin can cause irritation for the sensitive skin.

Apply once a day

This is for sure not a quick fix cream like say Strivectin SD eye cream or some of the other creams though it definitely works very well slowly and has good anti wrinkle properties. Make sure that you use other creams and moisturizer for good effect on the overall face appearance. Kinerase by itself has great products including other eye products like the Kinerase Under Eye Rescue. Review on this one later

Strivectin SD as a company has good reputation of the anti wrinkle anti aging products however they have a very strong combination of ingredients. Since the area around the eyes is very very sensitive this potent combination can cause irritation and other problems. To counter that Strivectin SD launched the Strivectin SD eye cream. The name of the company that manufactures Strivectin SD is Klein-Becker.

The original cream was introduced as a stretch mark reducer and then it gained fame as the anti wrinkle cream

Read the Strivectin SD eye cream review

This cream is specifically developed for the orbital eye area.

Pluses

Specifically developed by Klein Becker for eyes after removing the aromatic agents ‘

So no irritation around the eyes

Potent proven for fighting the fine lines and wrinkles.

Longer shelf life

Minuses

A bit expensive though I must say it is worth the money.

A 1.3oz bottle costs about $50-$60.

Ingredients

Striadil – This contains the pentapetides which help in removing fine lines because of the fact that it helps in building collagen.

Hyaluronic acid

Shea butter

Retinyl Palmitate

Instructions to Use

Applying once or twice a day is fine.

Use the ring finger to apply a small quantity

I would say that this is the best in the market and the fastest working . Very good results and a must buy. All in all I would say that in combination with the Strivectin SD cream and the eye cream you can get absolutely fantastic results
