face tips! a couple of questions, thanks!?

Question

I asked a question awhile ago about fading acne scars and I've got alot of answers with using vitamin E oil, and thats what I've been using and so far I guess its faded them much more. I've heard about cocoa butter? Does that really work? I heard it works well on stretch marks but can I use it on my face for acne scars? I know there were two brands but I can't remember them.


And whats a good cream to use for bags under your eyes? I heard Sephora? Can I get that at Macy's/Lord and Taylor? and does it work? How did it work for you? I sleep 8 hours and eat healthy, so I think they're hereditary (my dad has bad bags) so does that mean I'm stuck with them forever? or will something like Sephora work?

Thanks in advance! If you need to know anything else about my skin or whatever I'll add details and just check back!

Links would be helpful too.

Answer 1

Believe it or not, Avon has an day/night eye cream that works wonders! You have to keep using it of course, but, I too have the hereditary, 'under eye baggage', and I've personally used this Avon eye cream, and in about 5 days, the appearance was already greatly improved! In about 2 weeks, I received several compliments as well. It's a lot cheaper than Sephora ($28.00, not on sale). Be sure too, to drink lots of water, I've noticed that when I slack off of the water, the bags have a tendency to appear more pronounced.

Answer 2

I wouldn't recommend using cocoa butter on your face. It is heavy and might block your pores.

Instead of eye cream, try an eye gel to de-puff your eyes.

You can also cup a chilled teaspoon over each eye for a couple of minutes.
