OOOOH Riley is that the eye cream you got a sample of with the ANR concentrate? Is it perfumey or mild? I am dying to know??? Very Happy

Yes, I have a sample of the Advanced Night Repair Eye Cream. I actually don't smell anything from it, but it is definitely not perfumey.

Thanks it's sounding very tempting!

Probably when my eyes are no longer satisfactory to me I will get eyelid surgery.
Right now my eyes are ok,and I only need a different surgery for one eye muscle...but am not up to doing anything this year.
Maybe in a few months..not too sure.

surgery on your eyelids is not that bad.
you are usually awake when they slice your eyelid open and they only freeze that part of your face!
No idea of the prices though as I did not have to pay (insurance/gov't did)

Hi, i know surgery is the best and quickest way, do you know how long does the surgery keep?

I have started to use my sample on my eyelids after Havana posted that blog photo! I am just waiting for a good deal from Estee Lauder (meaning good sample offers and free shipping!) before I purchase the full size!

I'll take a look. The only deal I know if is their make-up and tote offer and as I don't wear make-up they don't look like "good" offers for me!

I was told that the skin that was removed won't grow back, so in that way it is permanent. HOWEVER ... it won't keep your existing skin from sagging or drooping as you age. He said that the normal time frame is 10yrs, but that it won't ever look like it did before. While you will still continue to age, it will most likely always look better than it did before having the surgery.

The procedure cost me $1600 (Ontario, Canada).

Please please please be careful about facial exercise. I started doing them, beginning with Annelise Hagen's "The Yoga Face". I wasn't sure that it was the right fit for me, and after doing some reaserch I saw that many people were fans of Facercise, or a combination of Flex Effect and Ageless if you Dare. I started with Facercise, but after day two it seemed that my nasolabial folds were increasing a bit. After checking online I saw that quite a few people had this complaint. I stopped and began the Flex Effect and Ageless if you Dare combo. I wasn't sure if things were getting better or worse until on the 5th day I clearly saw both my eye bags and nasolabial folds were obviously much worse.

I'm not saying don't try them at all, but go slow and be very aware of what changes are happening before you wake up looking 10 years older instead of younger.
