Now there are plenty of supposed eye creams.  But most of them don’t have the ingredients to fight general wrinkles such as peptides, let alone other ingredients like DMAE or eye specific ingredients to target that harder to reach and penetrate area.  It’s a simple fact of life.  But as you may not actually know, there are also ingredients that do, and there are products that have them. 

 Specifically, there is one peptide that is proven to target the area around the eyes and make a significant difference within weeks.  It is known as eyeseryl and has actually been tested a number of different times.  People have seen results in actually getting rid of bags, fine lines, wrinkles, and even dark circles, and I have personally seen nothing else that comes close. 

If you have eyeseryl, matrixyl which usually only works on the face, can compliment and strengthen its results.  But it is dependent on the presence of this one major ingredient.  Otherwise, it produces more collagen and elastin, but just can’t stick to that delicate area around the eyes.  But if you do this, it will also thicken the skin to some degree making it easier for other ingredients to penetrate it.  Obviously, this is a major advantage in the industry and in your skin.

I always thought it was odd.  Gold is such a desired commodity, and yet so many people have died for it.  Some have done it by choice, digging for gold at the expense of their own safety as well as their own diet and health.  They have left their families looking for even one small piece of gold for a small fortune to sell, and for the most part people never actually find it.  Sometimes they find fool’s gold, but rarely really real gold. 

 That is generally found by those who own the mines that have already been tapped among other things.  They have used it as a beauty secret for the ages, Cleopatra even bathed in it, and Chinese empresses used it as well, all believing it to be the fountain of youth.  Now people continue to use it for those reasons, believing that as it has been proven to be an extremely powerful antioxidant, it will be the answer to their skin and aging woes. 

And while I recognize that it is powerful, there are other antioxidants, and I have to wonder if people really think about the toll it takes on life in general, families, human existence, etc, and if it’s really all worth it.  Personally, I am inclined to believe that it isn’t.  Usually, unlike with diamonds, people are choosing to leave things behind and search of their own volition as they have actually done quite a bit in the past. 

They now have injections and filers for your face.  It’s not just for your lips anymore.  They can fill in your wrinkles and lines with things like collagen, hyaluronic acid, and there are a number of other choices.  Depending on the one, you may experience irritation or not, you may get longer lasting results, you may have to wait for a certain period of time for it to settle in, some have reported that certain injections move, and there are differing costs. 

But upon further study of these fillers, they are just that, fillers.  The body breaks them down, some faster than others, they don’t generally last more than a few months at most, even though some are estimated to last a year.  The body breaks them down faster than that.  In addition, some are actually dangerous substances to the skin, and only one has really been recognized as a wrinkle fighter in general. 

Some do move, and they are extremely expensive, even in the cases of the most affordable ones.  Many have now turned away from fillers, because of all these factors.  But still, many continue to experiment with different ones, because they think they will be different in positive ways rather than negative ways.

The best day creams are found with a number of different ingredients.  Despite what you may think, they should actually have wrinkle fighting ingredients like peptides or DMAE.  If they do not have these, it defeats the whole point of day creams.  After all, what would separate them then from just a regular moisturizer you purchase for $5 at your local Costco or grocery store?

But you should also have antioxidants to protect your skin from free radicals and sun damage and the right SPF’s and sunscreens to again protect your skin from further sun damage.  By adding healing ingredients like aloe vera that soothe and heal the skin, you are doing your skin further favors.

And of course, you should have the right light moisturizers.  These should not clog your pores, they should not go on too heavy as your pores are simply not ready for that during the day and it may cause acne.  In other words, we are going to be much pickier about those ingredients in particular, even though they are not necessarily as integral as say wrinkle fighting ingredients or antioxidants.  But all in all, your formula should be comprehensive.  It should have a variety of different ingredients in the right concentrations for your needs rather than having something else.  This will truly help you to find the best day creams instead of imitators.
