Dark circles, sagging skin and wrinkles are the bane of most women and almost every woman will attest to the fact that the area under the eyes are often the most difficult to treat. The skin under the eye is delicate and wrinkles can start at an early age. The harsh rays of the sun (UVA and UVB damage), free radical damage form oxidization, and thinness of tissue are primary causes of under eye wrinkles.
Huge strides have been made in recent years and there are now several treatments (and viable ingredients) available that will help reduce the bags and sagging. You can now find instant eye firming creams are extremely effective and can help you look years younger.
How Do Instant Eye Firming Creams Work?
Instant eye firming creams contain a combination of special anti-aging and moisturizing agents that work together to tighten the skin under the eyes. Hyaluronic acid is one such ingredient that works to improve skin elasticity and hydration. Low levels of hydration very often the cause excessive wrinkling and dryness.
Other important ingredients include Argireline and Pullalan, both of which help to tighten and firm tissue, including crows feet. Essential oils and herbal extracts are also needs to help provide faster cell rejuvenation and a smoothing affect. Combined, these ingredients (in varying strength formulations) can provide instant firming and wrinkle control lasting up to 6 hours, while providing longer-term benefits of moisture retention, antioxidant protection, and improved collagen and elasticity.
Glycerin from vegetables is also important as it helps to repair the cell membranes. This will help to improve the overall appearance of the skin under the eyes and reduce the wrinkles and fine lines.

In the past several years Argireline® has become a key ingredient in wrinkle creams - providing non-surgical & treatment alternatives to products such as Botulinum Toxin A (BOTOX) or similar agents and peptides.
Manufactured by CenterChem, Inc, Argireline® has been shown effective at reducing wrinkle depth up to 17% within 15 days using a maximum 10% dosage. It attenuates muscle contraction, relaxing the muscle and smoothing expression lines, while helping prevent formation of lines and wrinkles.
The Argireline® information PDF further explains its use in 3-10% dosages for skin products targeting removal of wrinkles around the eyes and forehead caused by natural aging and repeated facial movements and expression. It offers superior efficacy as an anti-wrinkle compound.
The inhibition of glutamate release at mM concentrations is a clear indicator of the potent anti-expression wrinkle activity of this hexapeptide. CenterChem
Argireline can be found in anti-wrinkle creams and serums in product lines such as Principal Secret, Anti Wrinkle 55, and in Freeze 24/7.
