@mendezl what are you currently using?

I use peptudes The Ordinary Argireline 10% and Matrixyl 10%+ HA together, and it has changed my skincare game significantly reducing fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes some people call it botox in a bottle , I agree and love it , will keep it on my routing for everrrrr , Try it

I am actually in the same boat. I'm trying to decide between the 2. What I am looking for, overall, is a reduction in fine wrinkles under my eyes, the beginning of crows feet, some deeper forehead wrinkles, brightening of under my eyes, pore reduction and plumper skin...whew, that was a lot. I'm leaning towards the Lancome HCF Serum then adding, when I can afford it, the genefique eye repair. But I do have oily skin, so if lancome dries me out, my skin will overproduce even more oil to compensate. Any suggestions for just a straight brightening serum to use in the morning would be helpful as well. Thanks!😃 oh, and don't get me started on when to use each and in what order lol

There could be a few things making your makeup look cakey @annietwo2 Using to much product can do that or even not preparing your skin (like exfoliation and moisturizing)

If it helps, I am 60 and the Kosas concealer did nothing for me. Not the right colors or consistency for over 50. It was too yellow or too orange and did nothing for my dark circles.

I’m 50, @JessiP117 , and used to have these and it turned out it was allergies. I do get a lot of allergies but my under-eyes started looking a lot better when I continued using my Zyrtec even when I wasn’t having other allergy symptoms.

@ellliieee I second #The INKEY List Caffeine De-puffing + Dark Circle Eye Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL !

Hi @LeaLL ! I’m curious: what’s making you switch from First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair® Oat & Hemp Seed Dry Oil 1 oz/ 30 mL ? Is there something about it your skin no longer likes? The only oil I use on my 50something mostly-dry combo facial skin these days is The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil 1 oz/ 30 mL, and only during winter (I live in Chicago; this winter’s been kinda mild compared to our usual subzero Januarys, though the month’s not over yet 😅). But on my hands and nails, I often use Byoma Hydrating Recovery Oil; it’s a nice blend of beneficial oils, squalane, licorice root extract, and a ceramide. It does also contain blue tansy oil; calling that out in case your skin’s sensitive to it. Also consider Good Light Alphabet Oil, a fairly new oil blend that contains turmeric, ascorbic acid, ferulic acid, neem extract, eggplant extract, and retinyl palmitate. That last ingredient may or may not be a dealbreaker, depending on the rest of your skincare routine. I use retinaldehyde nightly, so I don’t need an additional form of vitamin A on my face—which is why I don’t use Alphabet Oil on my face. Your mileage may vary.
