So, I tried the Remergent Microcirculation therapy for a few days and noticed that my eyes were getting puffy/baggish again underneath. However, I stopped using the Juvedicial eye serum while trying the Remergent one.

Should I be using both? Would it make more sense to trial the Remergent cream while still doing the Juvedicial serum to keep my puffiness down?

Inquiring minds want to know.... Smile

Personally, I think it'd probably be better to try one at a time, then you know which one is working well for you.

I haven't tried those particular ones, but I have been layering the ones I've been using. I had been using the Dermalogica MultiVitamin eye cream which I really liked, and then when I tried the Peter Thomas Roth Power K, I layered the two (PTR on the bottom). The PTR didn't feel moisturizing enough alone.

I agree with majorb, if it's moisturizing enough on it's own ... try that to see how it works first so you can judge how effective it is.

I'm currently using Cellcosmet Eye Contour Cream and PSF Stimucoll. I usually use them separately but sometimes I layer them (Cellcosmet on top).

I'd say it'd be best if you can stop using Juvendical and use Remergent alone to see what it can do for you. Wink

I agree with Majorb, I would try one at a time in order to find out which one is working for you.

actually I think all eye creams do a similar job. We are just picking one or a few from many different brand names

I don't think you should use 2 unless one is an eye serum because it may get too oily and cause milia.

If you know both eyecreams work for you but in different ways, couldn't you use one in the morning, and the other at night?

I think stardust has a great idea there.

Currently, I'm using PSF Stimucoll in the morning and PSF Hyrdating Cream at night. Although, as soon as these run out, I shall be switching to my new Valmont one. Both PSF products do different things, plus one is lighter for daytime and the other heavier for night. It seems to work pretty well.

Actually, as long as you try the Remergent first without the Juvedical to make sure it's actually working for you, you can layer it under another, eye cream. I used it under my normal eye creams as I need lots of moisturisation.

Thanks for the input, ladies. I use the Juvedicial serum to help with puffiness under the eyes, but I was hoping to find something to also moisturize a bit a brighten the area. I noticed that when I used the Remergent Microcirculation cream for a few days, the area seemed a bit brighter, but my puffiness came back.

So, that's my dilemna. For the moment I am back to using just the Juvedicial serum, but I may end up layering it with the Remergent.

I had the same experience with Cellcosmet and PSF. I had been using Cellcosment for over a month when I started PSF. PSF helped lighten my dark circle but puffiness came back after less than a week's use. Since then, I started using the two together, one in am and the other in pm, and sometimes Cellcosmet over PSF. So far, my puffiness hasn't come back and my eye area is brightened. Very Happy

Thanks for sharing your exoerience, ladies. I have pretty bad dark circles and have been searching for a product since ages ago. I tried PTR amd celcosmet but they didn't work. I'm intersted to know what PSF stands for, thinking it might be something I can try next. Thanks!

Thanks heaps CK for your quick response. I am going to give it a go!

Another eye cream I'd like to recommend is Valmont eye (& mouth) contour cream. It got me through the harsh weather in the February of Nepal. It didn't do anything to my dark circle, but my eye area was very much moisturised the whole time because of that Razz

I am wondering if you are using too much of one or both products. I use both Juvedical and Microcirculation and I don't have any puffiness. You only need barely one pump of the Microcirculation for both eyes. Only use it under your eyes and at the side and make sure it has fully absorbed before applying the Juvedical. I actually gently massage the Microciruclation in. My skin feels dry before I apply the Juvedical. HTH.

Thanks, Bushy. I don't know how much of the Remergent is in a pump since I have a sample size right now (no pump). I'll try using a bit less, though. Good to know that you put that under the Juvedicial serum.

For rich one like cellcosmet, use it alone.

But daytime, for an eye cream with spf, I would use re vive eye cream as a serum. Or using the decleor firming serum at first.

Using a serum make the 2nd eye cream much easier to apply
