I Need Help With My Bags, Eyebags That Is! By Alice on Oct 25, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

A sure sign some of us are getting older are the dark circles and/or puffiness under our eyes. I recently had cataract surgery and had worn glasses for many years. Now all of a sudden I don't need them and I really noticed the dark circles and slight puffiness more than I did when having my glasses on.

I had been seeing ads for the Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller. I received my Ulta flyer in the mail with a $5.00 coupon plus I had a $2.00 coupon that I cut out of a magazine so my final cost was only $5.99.

This eye roller is about 5 inches tall and comes with a roller at the top which you roll under your eye from the inside corner to the outside corner. I do this in the morning before I put on my makeup and at night after cleaning my face and heading off to bed. You can also use it throughout the day if needed.

The roll-on ball is very gentle when you massage it under your eye. The serum is light and absorbs very quickly into the skin. It is not greasy or sticky and is oil-free, 3 great reasons I like this so much. I'm very concious about what I use near my eyes since having the cataract surgery so when it stated on the box that is was Ophthalmologist tested I felt safe using it. Using the roller for application is also more hygienic in this sensitive eye area.

Active ingredients include caffeine and pro-vitamin B5. Since using this I have already noticed an improvement in the puffiness and a slight reduction in my dark circles. I don't expect a miracle cure but every little bit helps!!
