Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the great advice on these forums, I am addicted to reading them!
I know there are other eye cream questions and answers but I can't really find what I'm after....
I'm 27 years old and have pretty bad eczema which I've had for 4 years after a very stressful situation set it of, anyway all the dryness, medications and creams have ruined my skin.
My eye area is really dry and wrinkled, not so much as crows feet, but just in general, most of the lines are superficial thankfully but I want to get onto this before they get worse, I also have dark circles, which is probably allergy related and sleep deprivation.
Sorry long story short I'm after a good hydrating eye cream that will help with my issues. I'm super paranoid about wasting more money(I've spent thousands trying to get good skin back) and I'm in Australia so a lot of products are out of reach for me, something I can get online would be great, I've been watching the shopping channel and think I'm starting to get sucked in to wanting their products (mirenesse and skinn) so any help would be hugely appreciated!
Sorry about the huge question!!!

Thanks heaps darkmoon I have read on those blogs before, but will read up again.
I guess I was kind of looking for recommendations on a rich anti aging eye cream that will help with dark circles too.
I use emu oil and that seems to help the ezcema, I'm just determined to try and reverse some of the damage it has caused.
And now after reading all of the knowledgable posts on here I don't want to buy an expensive eye cream that is full of baddies.
Thanks once again for taking the time to help me out I appreciate it.

Sam,

I can appreciate your frustration, while I don't have eczema, I do have some of the worlds most sensitive eyes!
I have spent way too much trying to find an eye cream that does not make my eyes tear like Niagara Falls. Sad

I have used many up on lip lines, cuticles ect. ect. ect. it is just sad! Shock

Egyptian Magic Cream I use on my eye area just once a week for deep moisturization. It's all natural, and I've heard that many people who share your skin troubles have benefited from this.

Check out the company website, they have testimonials and such....

Good luck!

I have heard about the Egyptian magic cream before, how does it go under make up?

I love it for other places, but it is made with beeswax and a little heavy to me. Others my not feel the same, I do tend to have a good deal of natural moisture around my eyes.
