🦋 You are beYoutiful inside and out; I love you!
I'm on my 2nd bottle of this. I have found that my eye bags went from luggage to tote bags. I'm 64 so I'm happy with that.
Oh you have got good sense of humour😂
🤣🤣🤣
I used it till I tried the inkylist. MUCH better!
@@DarkSalome which one better?
@@nuruldiyana9150 inkylist. Much better!
Does anyone else notice that when you wake up your under eye darkness is less noticeable and throughout the day i gets darker? or is ot just me?
Really? To me it’s exactly the opposite. I wake up with dark hollow eyes and they get lighter when I take hydration and food to me. But then later in the day they sink , but I will get hyaluronic acid injections , takes all my confidence lately
MG G yeah i've been through the same thing :)
Oh yea by nighttime my dark circles are DARK
Yes! I wake up and my under eyes are completely normal looking. Then I get ready for the day and all the redness and dark circles come back
Same thing
"and this is what it did to my face...". Spoiler: NOTHING AT ALL.
Thank you 💙 I didn’t want to sit through the whole video to be disappointed in the end
Legit a waste of time!
Thanks for saving 12mins but I watched anwaay lmao
Yeah I used this too and it did nothing, or even worse, I felt like it didn't moisturize at all and pretty drying..
Thanks a lot. Sick of clickbaits!!!
For all the people who have naturally dark or deep under eyes I just wanna say you are lovely and some people think that's just as gorgeous as any other part of your face :)
No is not i have dark circles i look like sick or didnt sleep one year or have really some bad desease i have always to wear sunglasses or put lot of fondation and make up 😞
@@noraali9385 in the exact same boat
Thank you for kind words, but i actually look very tired because of them
I’ve been asked if I was punched, if I have black eyes, because my under eyes are that dark a purple, they almost look black. It’s very lovely of you to be so nice, but for those of us who deal with super dark circles, it’s something that can really have a negative effect. I’ve never found a colour corrector or concealer that covers them. And I’ve been looking for 20 years.
I appreciate your kindness but combined with my pale complexion and small frame I feel like I look sick. Like I must have some chronic disease.
I do really like the way you explain the scientific stuff, it is very understandable.
I was thinking the same thing! I’ve listened to tons of doctors explaining different concepts and no one gets the idea across as well as Cassandra ❤️
Thank you so much for all this information 😍😍 I did a similar experiment and guess what? Did work neither 😂😂 Yes please!!! I would love to watch the entire interview with Dr. Scott🤗🤗
Intelligent people know how to speak in simple terms because they want other people to be able to understand and learn
I got undereye darkness when I worked night shifts in my late 20s - I never used to have them, they were definitely not genetic they were a consequence of 'lifestyle' (that sounds so leisurely - I worked my ass off as an immigrant in the only job I could get) and this serum has dramatically reduced dark circles for me.
How long have you been using it over all? And how long after you started using it did u start seeing results?
I hope your life style is kinder to you now! Your a champion ❤️🏆
Waoo ! I know what is that .....tell me more because ive tried soo many thingss for may dark circles....
Waoo ! I know what is that .....tell me more because ive tried soo many thingss for may dark circles....
@aliee k it seems you believe she said non foreigners don't work hard 😂
Why on earth is she calling it an eye cream when it's marketed and formulated as a serum?
It is a serum
because eye creams are more or less just moisturisers/serums but branded differently
@@rosa3470 wrong , serum it’s different Then cream . Serums penetrated faster , Cream it’s seats on top of skin
@@tatiana283 yes I know, but in terms of buying an eye cream or serum, it’s the same as buying a normal serum or moisturiser is what i was trying to get across✨
Because the ordinary & Estêe Lauder is claiming & marketing it for undereyes 🤟🏻 Thats why 🤗
I am 40 years old, I started taking care of my skin in my 20s with a simple 3-step routine, at 23 I started using creams for the first signs of aging, the eye contour, serums and sunscreen ... Today I can say that having used creams for the eye contour has been a better decision than not having used them instead, I see my friends and cousins my age who have not bothered about the issue and the difference is very noticeable. In my experience I am happy that I have prevented rather than wait 20 years to see if they could have made a difference. Trying a product for 2 months is not the same as taking care of your skin for 20 years
Good for you. What cream you used for eyes and suncream? I have a sensitive skin
What products do you use? I’m 21 and I use serum and moisturiser I have not started spf yet bc I have sensitive skin! Also you’re so beautiful!!
What eye cream do you use ?
Creams?
I use cold cigarette ash under my eyes. Works wonders 🚬 🚬 🚬
How did you use a bottle and a half in 2 months I’m still using the same bottle since like august 😂😂
AND IM NOT EVEN LIKE HALFWAYYY 🤣🤣
Exactly. When I used tha serum (It is not a cream), it lasted months.
@@leila77 maybe she’s using a lot like... a lot
I’m using the bottle from august, I’m not even halfway.
Maybe it’s not about completing the whole bottle, maybe she used the caffeine solution for 2 months 🤔 to note the difference
This product is a lifesaver for me especially any time I have cried and need to go somewhere or if my eyes are puffy from crying the night before. Such a big difference within a few minutes!
me too I used it when I cry😂😂😭
I wasnt particularly interested in this product before, but this comment has me wanting to get it now lmaoo😭😭 this woulda saved my ass the other day when I was ugly sobbing right before walking into target smh
You are talking about ordinary eye cream w caffeine. ? Thank you very much
I hate the crying eyes 😭
Hi, are you talking about ordinary caffeine? Thank you!
Some reviews are like just feely opinions but THIS WOMAN IS A RESEARCH QUEEN i love how much you put alot of effort and research into this :)
Honestly I can tell I haven't used this stuff in awhile. I think it really helps even out under my eyes. I won't skip it ever again
Love how you move the video along quickly but still loaded w good info. So ez to watch!
Yes, I would LOOVEEEE to see that full hour interview!
Fourth eye problem: Under eye hollowness. Unfortunately, the only solution for that is hyaluronic acid fillers.
I call mine 'secret chamber of beauty', just to feel better 💃
I guess after this comment they are not secret anymore 😅
i have this and actually dont really care anymore. Think of that as something unique to your face. If you stop trying to hide it you will start liking that feature about yourself or at least dont care anymore :)
Fillers actually make it look WORSE if your fat pads separate which happens to a lot of people as they age.
Same i got those as well. Used to want to get fillers because im so insecure about it. And it makes me look tired and its especially worse in certain light fixtures and pictures. Makes me look hella tired. But you know what at least we can get away of not sleeping and still look little to close to our usual self.
I’ve been using the caffeine serum for three years, and my dark circles have completely disappeared (they did in the first six months). I definitely swear by it. I do need a separate eye cream for hydration, though.
Hi, how do you make the caffeinated whey recipe?
I use it too. Doesn't really do much for puffiness (I don't have a huge problem with that anyway) but it does work great for my dark circles.
with the ordinary product?
may i ask if your dark circles were sleep related or if they were constantly there? because mine are permanent so many products dont work as well for me as they do for people that don't sleep right
Can you tell me full name of this serum and also company name mam?
Love the amount of details that went into the video. Appreciate the info that actually help us understand my skin better. Thanks
You’re the first one that I actually go through the whole video. I love how you explain things and be thorough 💜🤍☺️
This is by far the best video on this topic I've seen online. Detailed yet to the point explanation, referencing studies and going out of the way to include experts for validation. Truly grateful for the kind of content you make. I suffer from festoons or malar bags which seem to have a similar concept. I will definitely start off with this and let you know how I feel ❤
So informed, so clear, so well spoken! Thanks, Cassandra. You totally rock!
Absolutely have been loving all of this information and how you can hold me because of how real and just down to earth you are. Thank you again
Personally, I visited their store and the salesperson was transparent about it being a temporary solution. I use it in the morning when I find that my under-eye area looks dark but never expected long term results and it helps with my dark circles :)
I’ve always struggled with dark under eyes and I have to say the product works for me! I’ve been using it for about a month and a half now and noticed a change within a few weeks of using it. Of course, I do have very dark under eyes, so maybe, like you said, that is the reason I’ve noticed a bigger change than others!
I'm really sorry to hear that you have nightmares from childhood trauma that's really sad :( I hope you are able to subconsciously move past it enough to never dream about it ever again! Stay safe love xx
I love how thoroughly you explain the science of this stuff
Please post the whole conversation with the doctor! I loved the little clip
I've used this most morning, for the past year and find it reduces puffiness significantly and I can actually feel my eyes becoming less tired. Not a fan of the consistency, which can be a bit tacky until it fully sinks in. Never used it for wrinkles, hydration or dark circles (which I find are diet/sleep related). I'm a guy, almost 40 and I have zero crows feet and a very faint expression line, under each eye. Since starting eye care a few years ago, I've used Elemis pro collagen eye treatment, Estee Lauder Eye Repair, Clarins super restorative & and for the past 10months, Niod Fractionated Eye Concentrate. Loved them all.
Your comment is a gem. Thanks
I would love for you to post the extra video! It's such a learning tool and the questions you ask are actually excellent
I love the fact you add comments from a pro who explains like you everything very clearly and helps us to identify the real issue we have. Brillant, I'd love to see the entire conversation. At my 30's I really want to take the right direction before doing something wrong and eventualy mess up my skin
I'd absolutely love to see the entire video, too! PLEASE
I also struggle with dark under eye circles and have sleep disorders. Thank you for sharing! I tried this before and didn’t notice a difference. I think it is my anatomy and I embrace that now. :)
I use this everyday! It helps the puffiness I get around my eyes from allergies. It’s brightened and opened up my eyes so much 👀
Yes, please post the entire conversation Dr. Miller!
You are a brilliant teacher Cassandra! Love how you explain complex stuff in a very easy way to understand and enjoy. 😘
So I know you don’t really like eye cream, but could you do a video on the best eye cream for each problem base on ingredients? I think it would help a lot of us
She's done a video similar to that. Check out her June video "before wasting more money on eye creams...", she recommends some in the description box.
i have never been so insecure by a woman before. you are one of the most brilliant incredible gorgeous soft spoken woman i’ve seen on youtube ughh i cant stop watching u
I bought this and started using this about 2 weeks ago! The gummy residue in the cap is so true, I thought I was clumsy so it ended up like that lol. 😂
I discovered this channel a few days ago and I have stayed because I love your ethics in relation to cosmetics. I'd love it if you could try out a brand-name transparent lab that's going to be launched shortly.
I saw eye cream and clicked wayyyyyy too quickly💜
I used TO Caffeine and found it didn't do anything to my under-eye puffiness which is from aging. I've been using The Inkey List Caffeine serum for a couple of years because it works a little better on my skin.
I'm so sorry you had trauma that causes you occasional nightmares! I've had trauma too (Luckily, no dreams), but I wanted to say that I love your videos and you are very bright and so informative. Do keep smiling ☺️.
I've been using this product for a few months now and I havent seen Major Major difference but i have seen improvements for sure. Especially since i have such a fair conplexion, ive seen this help enough *for my personal preference* with some of the shadow and puffiness in my under eye. Which has been an insecurity of mine for years, and this product even though it hasnt done miracles, it has helped. But definitely takes a lot of time to see some results in my opinion.
Hell yes, I'd love to see the whole interview!!!
Agreed
Love that you added your interview with him!!!!
I’ve never tried anything specifically for the eyes until I ordered a wishtrend box that included the Klairs fundamental eye butter. I really enjoy it. It has a few different types of peptides in it I believe. Doesn’t feel heavy or sticky at all. Truthfully I wouldn’t have purchased it, but since it was in the box and highly discounted, it’s definitely a product I enjoy using. Could you look into that product please?
👍🏿
The way you deliver knowledge and the dedication you put on creating these videos makes me feel cared for and actually supported, tysm! Also, i can't seem to find the video where you speak about the caffeine solution for the whole face. How is it called?
Allergies are my cause for bagginess so I know I just need to go to a derm whenever they start to really bug me. I am really intriged by that caffeine solution as a serum🤩
I have the same problem and it's really sucks when we can't try many products. Does this product works for you? I'm about to try
So I’ve been working with the same bottle for MONTHS. I was at first only using it once a day and then went to twice a day (am and pm) and I’ve noticed a major difference. I have a natural glow under my eyes now (even when it’s not on) and it takes down any swelling that I may have. I’ve never suffered from dark circles but I can say it helps with making you look more “awake” and “alert”
I'm a guy and I have to say this is a very wonderful video. Thanks for the review.
Aw🤗
I use this everywhere and what I’ve found it helping with is it tightens under my eyes and it has helped with broken capillaries around my nose... thankyou beautiful for another great video 💋xxxxxxxxxx
What differences have you seen with the broken capillaries? Are they just less noticeable?
Yes! I’m 52 and I’ve been using it all over my face too including, jawline and under my chin for 2 years and I can tell a difference without it. To each his own.
@@AngelLuluBlu what basically are you using for wrinkles puffiness and dark circles around the eyes I have puffiness around eyes and it makes me look tired
@@AngelLuluBlu so it did tighten your jawline ?
I've been using this since early May this year, still a quarter more to the bottom. Although I did get it to try my luck with some minor puffiness and fine lines, I can't say this bottle contributed 100% to changes in that area because 1. I cold compress, 2. The lines were not so bad to start off with so moisturisation helped, and 3. I apply SPF religiously too. Then I stumbled upon that video you posted, and I started applying on other areas on my face, all over my neck and stomach (I developed major lines on my belly area due to pregnancy and post birth I shrunk to my petite size again with LINES across my belly 😂). Now this I have to report helped. Just like you said, I used it like a serum. With its price, I have no complains, just happy to have become a more knowledgeable consumer with less lines, thanks to you, Cassandra. ❤️❤️. Thank you for the video, I enjoyed it. Oh, yes, I'd like to see that video of yours interviewing the doctor please!
I also use it for this purpose! I also put it on my butt and breasts - I breastfed exclusively for over a year. I can see much more of a difference on my body than my face. Even my husband has commented it :)
Hey, FYI it really worked well on my undereye bags. I'm 65, I applied morning and night and started to see the difference after about 3 to 4 weeks!
Yes, please post the full conversation I liked the way you explain and also how he did. Thanks 🥰🦋
Interestingly this product was one of those that actually made me see changes rather significantly. It reduced the purple color under the eyes and I think also some of the puffiness. I didn't have very strong puffiness though, I mostly took it for the color. I applied it twice a day. I didn't know it has benefits as a full face serum, tell me more about that please
How long does it take to notice a difference with purple color under the eyes?
Agreed. This is actually my favorite Ordinary product. I've seen a huge difference over the last three years that I've been using it. I first saw changes after a few weeks, and if I don't use it for a few days I can tell. I'm 36, and I started using it at 33.
i don't always use it twice a day, but same, it's lessened dark circles heaps. I also feel my 'under the eyelid' is less wrinkly. Also experienced more lash growth (I lost my lashes a few years ago due to intense medical treatment, and they were pretty sparse when starting to grow back). Been using it for about 4 months? I don't find it helps with puffiness as that for me is a sinus/lymphatic drainage issue. My main reason for not using my face moisturiser in eye area I do experience milia more frequently. (I'd love if you could discuss milia in detail, Cassandra!) Weirdly enough, when I used it on some beginning fine lines as suggested by Cassandra, it didn't really do much, but am on a baby retinol which seems to be helping better. Though I might try the caffeine serum on broken capillaries around my mouth and nose as she suggested :)
Yess!! You can put it in your face! The coffee does wonders to the skin...but im glad it worked for your dark circles... im thinking of buying it just to see if it works for me. As you i dont much puffiness, its just really dark.
This also can be used with vitamin c and niacinamide helping more to the skin to get the brightness that we all want it. Im going to buy it. Wish me luck!
The best thing to get rid of shadow under the eye, is lighting! I look at myself in different lights and I look dramatically different in each one. Kinda freaks me out lol. I have that product and many others from The Ordinary, and I like them. Some you can't get in Canada though, not sure why. Very informative video, but then again they ALL are.
That is because of your bone structure
Overhead lighting really accentuates the herniated fat pad under my L eye.
I have been using this! I have that under eye fat and I figured it was genetic. I have been using this and sometimes a jade roller. I think it helps a little, but it definitely does plump up the skin around my eyes and makes any fine lines much less noticeable. I was able to force myself to sleep on my back for a week once and that helped a TON but I'm so bad at it and I'm a troubled sleeper to begin with 😅
I always feel like eye cream can help with the damage you do to you eyes by yourself, but not with the change that your eye area goes through naturally. So when you use a lot of eye make up you have to also remove a lot of eye make up. Depending on your skin type this can be drying to the eye area. In this case a moisturizer can help. But I think that's kind of it...
I can't sleep on my back. When I do I have terrible nightmares and wake up with headache
I can't sleep on my back either. I don't know precisely why. It bothers me because I probably wrinkle my face all night long.
Keep trying don't give up 🙃
It happens to me too.. I thought I was the only one!
@@cacamtz1213kaka me too!!!
Me too! It gives me sleep paralysis, it’s horrible and not worth it!
At this point i trust you more than any brand advertisement🤣
I bought this about 5 days ago. It’s obviously going to work or not depending on your situation. But for me at least, its been great. It has worked on my under eye. It has constricted the area making me look more awake. I wish you and the doctor went more in depth about blepharoplasty which is something i have been debating in my life for a while now.
I just want to right you Cassandra that I have been watching your every video and i am so suprised that someone is so harismatic and well educated and still so dron to post a video on youtube, you are so insparing for me personel to learn more about ingridians and just imyoing routin,skin routin. I am from beauty industry,thats my proffesion and thank you for sharing!
I had dark circles that came primarily from lifestyle and this product removed them almost entirely and my lifestyle hasn't changed at all: 100% recommend
I started using this 2 days ago and w my work I only get 4-6 he sleep! Do u think it reduces puffiness and how long did it take to see results?
@@user-xk9xm1iy8k hey! I didn't have any puffiness when I started using the product, I only had quite intense dark circles so I cannot say for certain if it will help you with your specific issue. I started seeing results after 1 month or so
geraver Thank you! My main concern is dark circles anyways, I’m going to keep using and hopefully get results too :)
I used this product 2. 3 times. It burns a little after applying. Is it normal ?? Or is it just me ?? 🥲
@@tasnimmeher9790 Hi! Sometimes it happens to me after using it for a while (some weeks). So when that happens I stop using it for a few days or even a week, then go back to normal application. I apply at morning and night, one small drop on each under-eye. When it's absorbed/dried by the skin and finish off my routine, I go over with my moisturising cream (the CeraVe in my case), even on my under-eyes
I am 44 and always struggled with puffy under eyes and purple shadows. I started using this but just in the morning cause instantly reduces the puffiness but night time i use retinol eye cream. This is not giving long term results but just applying it in the morning it gives instant lift and great base for my concealer. It is a bit drying so i use sunblock on the top
Just wanted to say thank you for all the effort you put into these videos! You help so many of us! Also, thank you for not making aging a crime. I don’t want to age quickly but I also don’t want to be 60 with zero wrinkles. With all your tips I hope to age gracefully! 💓
This eye serum makes my eye lids firmer and lifted. Love it! I do have to use a moisturizer over it but it’s still quite effective.
I Love how dedicated You are with skincare. I wish i loved myself more so i could take care a little bit more of me.
Google law of attraction
@@anonymousperson6805 oopoppopoppppppppppp
I LOVE this product! I often wake up with puffy eyes in the morning, and this is the only product I have ever tried that actually works (and I have tried all the expensive brands!). I put it on, and five minutes later the puffiness is reduced. By the time I get out the door, it's completey gone. - so Thank you Cassandra for introducing me to this product :)
Which product do you mean please?? With the caffeine?
I've been using it for 3 months now and i can defo say that it does it's job. Mind you, it's not gonna get rid of the dark circles FULLY, BUTT, I noticed a lot less discoloration and shadow on my under eyes, and nowadays I even felt comfortable with just putting on foundation without concealer since there's not much to cover up as before. My eyes also felt so hydrated the next morning, and i look and felt fresher. So I HIGHLY recommend. But remember, take it as a grain as salt as our experiences may most likely be different.
I absolutely love your videos.... you have taught me so much my skin in 1 month has improved, I am now hydrated and my rosacea is improved by like 80% and that is just with 2 weeks of product use... lots of research before and shipping time... thank you.... and I'm excited to see what this does to my eyes and skin as well.
I actually fine this incredibly useful for reducing the puffiness of my eyelids and around my eyes. I was actually starting to consider surgery because I hated it to much, so this product has been a big game changer for me.
Thanks for commenting
We're ur eyebags puffy like a lot n u tried everything? If I could see how urs used to look like
THANK YOU FOR ALWAYS EXPLAINING EVERYTHING SO THOROUGHLY. 💙
Thsts awsome that you incorporated your face time with surgeon. I say YES! Please post that video and add the ingredients he mentioned for eye creams.
I started using the snail mucin about a month ago and apply it under my eyes as well. I started seeing how bright my under eyes are. I also use a hyaluronic acid roll on and have been for about a year, so it wasn't from that. I am super satisfied with the snail mucin. My face glows, my under eye is looking amazingly good.
Please do post your full conversation with Dr. Miller! That would be so interesting. Also, a very expensive eye cream that my dermatologist recommends (and it’s pretty darn good) is the one from Alastin. You don’t need it (and it works for the rest of the face too) but it’s something I’ve been using for a while and it’s a nice treat-yourself product with some good-ass ingredients
I've had puffy blue/purple under eyes my whole life that look similar to yours, even when I was a kid. Its just how my face is! But I have just about ZERO crows feet so I'll take it. I too have never believed eye creams we're necessary, I just use whatever I use on the rest of my face.
I am 51. Have not had many skin issues. I do love this stuff primarily for maintenance. Not to mention that it feels really good compared to lotion type eye creams. Cost is great as well.
Yessss please post the bonus video!! I love your videos thank you 🥰
I definitely want to see the full conversation between you two! Super interesting. He does say “okay?” a lot, tho 😂 love the new upload, Cassandra. Great job lately! (Always, but lately you’ve really been pumping me out!) also interesting to hear you nursed until you were 5. I’m a side sleeper too, but I don’t have that excuse 😅
I’ve had great success using this cold from the refrigerator!
Your natural hair texture is just so stunning!😍😍😍
Love this video! PLEASE post the one hour video, I would LOVE to watch it!!
You're skin has improved a lot. Can you share with us your current routine and what products took you to this now smoother, clearer and more glowing skin? ; )
I’m on my third bottle and I haven’t payed close attention to the change tho i went in the bathroom after your video and realized I don’t have any puffiness. Though I still have dark circles. I’ll be paying closer attention as I continue to use so many of The Ordinary products. Thanks Cassandra! Hoping to find more of The Ordinary products on your channel.
How's your dark circles now
So much effort has been put in the making of the video its showing
i haven't experienced puffiness but i have experienced chronic darkness undr my eyes (mostly blue, a bit purple) and i found this serum lightened and brightened the under eye within just one use, and has continued to do so, so i'm stoked
I actually love this because the caffeine helps to cool and wake up my under eyes and over eyes and I take some of it just in my face as well, it tightens my skin and cause my skin to feel tight but you kinda just have to deal with it before following up with your next skincare steps. Love this, it’s cooling without needing to be in the fridge, it stays cooler than room temp all of the time.
Hydration is so important. My dark circles are worse when I don’t drink water
Wow I'm kind of relieved that you showed the "gumminess" of your bottle, because mine have been doing the same thing and I wasn't sure what it was!
Would definitely like to see the full interview
I swear by this product. Cannot say exactly how it makes my undereyes look better, but if I stop using it for 2+ days, I instantly get very dark undereye circles and puffiness. Tested this 3 times for different lengths of not using it, because I, too, was not convinced it dis anything.
@Nurhan Mhawe Works for me!
It works for dark sunken eyes and not baggy eyes! That’s my theory and it works for me because of this!
So you’re saying when you stop using it your dark circles come back?

@@janjickamixy wow okay thanks
4:55 Childhood traumas and things like PTSD: it can sound like a very benign step in treatment, but taking care of ourselves through skincare can be really therapeutic. I’ve noticed that myself. 🦋💗🌸

Ugh the science! You are amazing!!!
Excellent presentation and appreciate the honesty and integrity. Excellent orator as well.
PLS DO ANOTHER VIDEO LIKE THIS where you’re trying the inkey list Caffeine eye cream 😊 world love to hear your opinion on that!
This was a great experiment, thank you for doing it and for all the dedication you put into your videos
This was amazing and so informative! Thank you so much!
Lymphatic drainage massage for the eyes is great! Exuviance eye smoother for $40 is great containing hyaluronic acid and polyhydroxy acid, kept in the refrigerator to depuff is also another eye trick. I'm a Skin Care Specialist too! I'm new to your channel but I'm enjoying it!!!
Love this content. I do enjoy the TO caffeine and just work in with my moisturiser. My underwyes are super dark no matter how much or little I sleep but that's just my genetics and ofc being 29 now trying to use more stuff to prevent and self-care/ slow down daily routines. IF this pandemic taught me anything was to sit back and stop running around like a chicken with my head cut. Thanks for bringing so many great videos lately.
Hi! I have the same issue, super dark undereyes since I was a kid and I was curious if you noticed a difference
@@bawddor3831 hey! As I mentioned,it's genetic so really haven't found something that lightened that zone. In general, my skin is clear and more radiant so it's nice with just a bit of concealer on the dark circles.
NIOD Survival 0 uses a form of fractionated melanin tailored to absorb light in the range of 400-500 nm wavelengths. Being NIOD part of DECIEM, just like The Ordinary, I assume they use the very same ingredient. I would love to see the whole conversation with Dr. Miller
NIOD is massively expensive - I've tried several, including the eye stuff. And it's a 'no' from me. Saw zero benefit
@@saintetienne755 I just received that eye serum to try it out but I haven't used it yet, hope it does something for me though. That stuff costs a fortune for what it is.
why wud skin need to absorb light??
@@parisiaeka5159 If we don't have chemical compounds such as melanin or UV filters to absorb and filter the radiation our skin will do it instead. Our skin absorbs sunlight for things like vitamin D synthesis, but it being an organ makes it subject to degradation and formation of cancerous skin cells, that's why we use SPF. Melanin is not a UV filter per say but a pigment, which helps in defending our skin cells from UV radiation. That's why we tan when we stay in the sun, because our body reacts to its exposure to sunlight by creating this pigment, melanin, in our skin in order to "defend" itself.
I love using the ordinary caffeine, matrixyl, hyalauronic acid, argireline, and buffet with copper peptides, I swear they really work..💗
I like how you broke down the eye problems. I have the beginning of wrinkles but have never had puffy eyes and I found this serum to be very drying to my eyes and they actually looked worse after a few weeks 😳 I just ordered NIOD FECC with the sale and am crossing my fingers that it works!
