Hi Ladies,

I am going to buy AlphaDerma CE and AH3 Facial Skin Prep. I was going to also get OkuSil but after searching the board it seems this might be a bit over the top and I might end up with dry eyes.

Has anyone had under eye success with just using the 2 main products with out OkuSil or is it worth the extra expense? Any advise here would be great I am a little confused if both are essential to success.

Thanks for the help.

If you look at the ingredient list, both the AlphaDerma products are similar with the exception of Argireline and vitamin K in the Okusil. Argireline, which is supposed to mimic the firming in botox, is still a rather new and a controversial treatment in regards to effectiveness. (I research clinical studies on skincare products and there isn't much out there yet on Argireline to substantiate the claims... yet)
If your under eye area is dry, or puffy with dark circles you could layer the AlphaDerma CE with just plain old (Super) vitamin K- it's quite affordable and does a fairly good job on the under eye area.
Hope that helps!

Thanks for the reply Sue.

I was kind of thinking the same way. After going through their site I discovered the below products that might suit me better.

DMAE Firming Fluid
DMAE, Alpha Lipoic Acid & Vit C Firming Eye Serum

Which are kind of more what I am after rather then the Argireline. I have a few lines under my eyes. I am just so dam confused about what is best. I have a small budget and will only get one shot at this for some time and these kinds of products are just not available in Australia.
