I'm 37 years old and already have bags under my eyes and wrinkles that are just so obvious. Any solutions that may help tone the oldness down a little bit?

Have not gained any weight, have actually lost and have kept it off for 2 years. I'm the lowest weight I've ever been at this point. I'm not quite sure if weight loss or gain has an impact on the bags under your eyes though as one of the repliers stated.

I cannot sympathize. Did you really think you were going to live forever? The mountains crumble over time, the beaches erode over time, and you were going to be forever young? Why would you want to live life fighting the inevitable? So sorry.

Well you're 37. That's part of the 'problem.' Have you gained a lot of weight? WELL, if you have, DON'T try to lose it...the bags will look even worse! As for the wrinkles, that's part of growing older so you may need a little help (surgery)...
anyway, take care of yourself. Eat -plenty of fresh fruit and veggies. And grow old gracefully. Oh and if you decide on a face lift or something similar? for God's sake do something with the neck. Nothing looks worse than a 'stretched' face..capping a ten-tier neck!

I'm 48 and it doesn't get better. Start saving for a facelift bc around age 45 would be the time to do it. In the meantime try good skincare like GlyDerm products, and exfoliators like glycolic acids and Crystal Peel for dermabrasion. Most plastic surgeon offices have access to wonderful products that really do make a difference in the skin integrity until you are ready for the big deal (if you want surgery). My friend had it and looks much better.

I loooooove and cannot recommend highly enough the Alpha Hydrox products on pharmacy.com. (No, I have no affiliation with the company). The Souffle is 12% fruit acids -- it BURNS, baby. But your skin will look better after a couple of weeks. Another thing to consider is Retin-A, a topical wrinkle cream, but you need a prescription for it and it's a bit pricey. Both work, though, although the Retin-A works faster. The only drawback to Retin-A (besides skin irritation, which is minor) is that you can't put it near your eyes, so it's no good for crow's feet.
Good luck -- if you find the fountain of youth, please drop me a line! ;-)

Arbonne works wonders, there is a line called the re9 line, i would suggest the eye corrective repair, this gets rid of the dark circles, puffiness and wrinkles. The facial serum is also one of the best, from personal experience,you can talk to this rep she can help. there are all natural

There are plenty of treatmens for bags under the eyes. If you want a quicker result, then go for a surgery. But shall I say that if you are smoker, you are lost.

I have to be honest- Botox is the absolute best thing ever made. It doesn't hurt, it looks great, its not too expensive. It takes about 2 weeks to see full effect, but forget creams and serums and stuff because Botox works the best. I love it love it love it.

Beyond surgery or heavy makeup...just beconfident and happy with who you are! Not many of us were born with high cheekbones and flawless features. Confidence is the most attractive thing about a person!

Moisturizers with caffine in them. Also try anti-aging cremes and make sure you use spf 15 and up everyday, rain or shine.
