    Yeah most of these eye creams really don't work. They take advantage of people who have a genuine problem. There are a couple more that I found that are much cheaper but then again I have absolutely no idea if they work or not. It would suck to spend a good amount of change on something so...

    Yeah unless you have easy access to Aveeno, forget about it (I remember you mentioned it wasn't available in UK). This is by far the BEST product for the eyes (link below). It works on any possible eye problem and it has great reviews. The only problem is that it costs so much. Like I...

    Don't use Cortisone around the eyes. It interferes with Collagen production. Even though in the short term it might give you results, in the long term it will delay the healing process.

    No I did not have those problems. I only had problems with the skin on my face. But those are also common side affects of minoxidil use. Many have reported those symptoms.

    Well Timi, this is the way I look at it....at least now we know that minoxidil is not for us. If we had never used it then maybe one day we would have regretted not trying it. Better to live in surety than in regret. As for the symptoms, as long as you have stopped using minoxidil they will all...

    Yes I have stopped it. Long story short, I used Rogaine 5% for ONLY 1 month and I got the following symptoms: Facial bloating Inflamed and dry skin Appearance of fine lines Enlargement of my pores Dark Circles Sinking of the skin below my eyes I have been off Rogaine for exactly 4 months now...

    Rogaine 5% gave me horrible dark circles. Not only that it has also destroyed the collagen right underneath my eyes so that my skin has sunken in and it makes my dark circles look even worse. I'm on a mission to get my eyes back to normal. I absolutely hate these dark circles and sunken look...
