Anti-Aging Help -Under/Over the Eyes
Not new news here-the eye area----above and below the eyeballs themselves--- reveals the first signs of aging for most people-via puffiness, crows feet, fine wrinkles, dark circles, crepey-ness, and/or sagging skin.
Any combo thereof... above and beyond inherited facial traits that can show up when one's young...not wanted!
For us-the lovely raccoon imprints -aka goggle eyes-that we get from swimming -were taking longer and longer too disappear---and it def. bothers besides looking weird.
Hydrating skin with plumping moisturizers-is a must for fines lines and wrinkles...but gravity combined with the an agers loss of collagen and tightening elastin, and environmental stress (hello chlorine)-also played a role....and imo required more than the typical moisturizer packed with hydrating hyaluronic acid. Firming ingredients were musts too (btw for the 411 on that- we like this blog post from Dr. Perricone).
Interesting for us-the past two months-about---has made us believers in two fairly new/newly packaged products ---that has improved our under-eye abilities to bounce back from those 3 hours a week we spend on perfecting our freestyle.
Exuviance DePuffing Eye Serum...
What's inside the serum-includes Exuviance's much acclaimed firming NeoGlucosamine® the company's patented non-acid sugar technology that promotes cellular turnover-reducing fine lines/wrinkles, and a blend of peptides that tones up the entire eyelid area. Other ingredients sourced from top notch research companies-include citrus antioxidant in Eyeliss™=reduces bags/puffiness and Actiflow® for under eye circles...plus what we would call the 'usual' effective ingredients found in a lot of eye cream/serums, stimulating caffeine +green tea-helps in the puffiness and has anti-oxidants, respectively---and soothing chamomile...in a formula that penetrates the skin for efficacy.
FYI-we figure this will last us about 3.5 months
On weekends---and in a gym bag that gets carried to the pool- we've been using-right after swimming- the recovery gel from the revived Regenica..a company we've favorably reviewed in the past---that kinda dropped off the radar...but still existed-lead by Dr. Gail K. Naughton- a pioneer in the field of regenerative medicine and the "inventor" of a key ingredient in the potent and effective anti-aging serum, Skin Medica's TNS® (1990's).
Regenica's key ingredient, the patented MRCx™ is..."...itself created by growing new fibroblasts (safe and non-controversial stem cells) in a stimulated embryonic lab environment---with the created secreted proteins, growth factors and other byproducts-harvested= the key ingredient in all of the company's products..."-and is a proven skin firmer.
