    I freeze spoons, and after I'm done washing my face I put the spoons on my eyes...I also use that caffeine eye roller with the cover up from loreal in the morning...it works pretty good, it's well worth the price.

    Caffine Eye Roller? It puts caffine on your eyes?

    lol yes...google it, it works

    Cool! Thanks!

    I wonder if frozen coffee ice cubes would be the same?

    Mine are hereditary so I just buy really good concealer. Try Amazing Cosmetics concealer. Its about $42 for an ounce but it's awesome and lasts a long time. Over the concealer I dab Bare Minerals powder concealer. I have tried all the creams but nothing works. :grumble: Thanks, mom

    yeah, but ice cubes melt down your face, and the metal stays cold longer...spoons are a lot less messy lol and they fit your eyeballs

    You're killin' me cat lol just try it...it works for me...it won't kill you, they're just cold spoons...put the convex side against your eyelids, wait until the spoon warms up...dab some oil of olay moisturizer on right away, and go to sleep...

    This sounds like it would work but I have a picture in my head of someone with a spoon hanging from their nose and this being a new version of that. LOL:laugh: :laugh:

    They can also be caused by dehydration. Unfortunately mine are hereditary. I don't use a special eye cream. Studies have shown that most of them are no different then regular moisturizer or skin cream. I use Clinique moisturizer. As far as concealers, I've really been impressed with Maybelline Age Rewind (It has concealer on one end and a brightner on the other) and Loreal True Match.

    I'm going to make a concerted effort to take a multi vitamin and try the spoon thing. Thank God for good coverup!

    My mom does this whole spoon buisness as well...i have tried it and frozen spoons applied to the eyes is like drinking a milkshake too fast- instant brain freeze. it is extrememly uncomfortable!
    i take a multi-vitamin and drink a TON of water...my eyes tear a lot too so maybe it is allergy-related. ugh,
