I immediatly tried to remedy the problem, by buying cream and gel treatments. they would give me the immediate results, but never long lasting. Trying to figure out what to do. I began to stare at old college pictures of myself and began to realize what my problem really was. I did not take care of myslef as I once did. During my late teens and early twenties, I had plenty of time to pamper myself. Facials and those old wives remedies were done on a daily basis. Now that I am older with my own family, I never have the time. That is one of the reasons my skin and skincare have gaps that cause dark circle and other facial imperfections. Once, I realized I had to stop spending money on make-up products and save for the babies' future, I knew the only thing I had was time. I decided to take time on myself, because money was just too tight to spend so much every 3 months. I began to use the cucumbers in the morning and the green tea bags before going to bed. I took time to give my self facials and would pay close attention to the small things. I even had my children rub ice on my eyes and face(mainly because their touch is so gentle)when they wanted to play and I needed to relax. I saved money on concealer. I just make sure I keep sunscreen, sunglasses and supplements for every season. It took longer that most people would wait for results, but in the end, I look younger and feel more vibrant. It is not always about the product, sometimes its just about the time someone takes for themselves to look and feel better. I really hope this works for someone, because it has does wonders for me. How I know it works: I had a gentlemen ask me for I.D., when I went and had drinks with my girlfriends, recently!

I really enjoy the Olive Night creme - I use it as an under eye cream as recommended by their website. My routine has been putting some of the cream along my lower lid and then gently rubing under my eyes before i go to bed at night. The cream stays put, and doesn't get into my eyes. It also doesn't have any fumes or aromas to make my eyes water since it is organic and chemical free. I'm the one whose eyes will tear if our cat wanders next to me and rubs my shoulder, so my eyes are generally rather sensitive. I use this each morning and evening. I really can tell the difference, that my eyes look less tired, that the skin looks more healthy. And really, it makes sense. All skin needs moisture to stay healthy. That skin beneath and around your eyes is extremely thin, so if any skin on your body is going to show dehydration first, it would be your eyes. People look at your eyes all the time when they talk to you, so they notice that pretty quickly. The downside of course is that eye cream is rather pricey - but again, for the above reasons, I don't think it's as bad as it might seem at first. You use tiny amounts. The cream is specially formulated to be safe for use near your eyes, and to be light enough to absorb into that delicate skin. You really DO need to take care of that skin area in a special way, since the skin is so delicate. And it's well worth it to do that, since people who talk to you are generally looking at your face and your eyes when they do so. I tend to be frugal, but this is one of the areas where I think taking good care of yourself is worth it in the long run. I bought from the website because I believe they only have stores in London and New York - highly recommended for healthy women looking for an under eye with proven results!

Preparation H (the cream, not the ointment) works wonders. Because it shrinks the capillaries. I don't know if this really works but thought I would put the suggestion out here. Certainly cheaper by far. I have been told that (don’t laugh!) Preparation H (the cream, not the ointment) works wonders. Because it shrinks the capillaries.

I can't believe the improvement. I have been getting comments like, "You look good, is your hair different." Yesterday, my coworker asked me if I was doing my eye make up differently. I've always had dark circles under my eyes, even as a child. They didn't really bother me until this year because they seemed to be getting worse..I'm 34 now. They are not gone but they are definitely better. I have been reading different forums on Hylexin and this is my first time posting a review. I understand that some people are skeptical but I thought I'd share my experience. I’ve been using Hylexin for over a month and see results!! I can’t believe the improvement.
