Skin ageing - men

    Hi folks,

    Not sure if this is the right place for this thread but here goes anyway. Basically I have noticed lines and wrinkles appear at the sides of my eyes and also my eyes are red, largely due to burning the candle at both ends. I've looked into some skincare products by Loreal Menexpert and Clarins. Can anyone comment on how effective these are or if they'd recommend anything else? It's just that these "tired eye rejuvenator" and moisturiser etc can cost a good bit. I don't mind spending the money but I was hoping to get some views on how effective the stuff is before I part with cash.

    Cheers

    How old are you? I believe Clinique is good, according to my wife anyway.

    I'm only 28 but I can see the lines starting up. I also have bags under my eyes and people comment on how I look tired all the time. Now I know there are lifestyle changes I can be making too but I just thought that perhaps some of these products might make me look less liike a corpse.

    Start from the inside first. Drink more water, quit smoking (if your a smoker), get better quality sleep, exercise, improve diet.
    THEN concider products if the crows feet still exist.
    Try something simple first such as Nevia moisturiser.
    If that still has no effect you can try more expensive products.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Well admittedly, all those are things I should do as I have a pretty unhealthy lifestyle - lack of sleep, drink and smoking too much etc.

    I think Mayonnaise is supposed to be good for skin, and hair too and its cheaper than most skin products.
    Water is the best idea, keep yourself hydrated. I know I do not drink enough water.

    I use the Clinique range, too much time in the sun in my teens and twenties meant that once I hit my 30's I noticed the wrinkles around the
    eyes started.
