What abt the Brand "ATOMY" ??? GOOD OR BAD
are these for wrinkles
I love you Cassandra you're the best
Hi!
Do you think that caffeine can be absorbed if I just apply coffe/green tea on my eyes?
yep :)
for the first time, I heard someone telling the truth, instead of advertising brands. Thank you :)
I heard to Dr. Dray said it long time ago. She is a dermatologist and thanks to her I changed a lot bad habits and products on my skincare routine specially I stoped to buy face creams with fragrance or perfume. I learned a lot with her too
@@josefinag.8671 -1
Please do a review on Sesderma. Thank you!
oh she is advertising honey... she made this video to get viewers ...
@@josefinag.8671 x
I’ve just accepted that dark undereyes is just something I have. It’s genetic and I’m not comfortable getting fillers or anything and concealers don’t fully cover it. It’s not ugly it’s my face! Oh well!!
Agreed. Even if you think you have imperfections, the people who love you love you no matter what
isame 00 100%
I have genetic dark circles and I really think they make my eyes and face more interesting. I hate my face when I apply concealer on them :)
Isabella M. Lepore Dark circles are soooo cute. I sure love mine too and dont like any makeup on my face besides gloss :) glad too hair from someone who loves theirs too
It's because you have been using the wrong concelear color to cover up your black eyes. The one that works for everyone is the salmon color (the blacker the more orange-salmon you should use your conceler) that color cancels the black and doesn't allow the black to show, plus it will fusion with your skin color.
I’m a licensed skincare specialist. What she’s saying is so true & I’m betting that the cosmetic companies would hate for the consumer to know the truth about skin!!!! Keep it simple, cleanse ur face nightly, get 7-9 hrs sleep and keep comfort food out of reach with the occasional reward!!!!!
can I apply natural alovera gel on my face daily?
@@jannatl9522 use *plant gel* not any cosmetic aloe vera gel because it's packed with preservatives which are harmful
@@justcurious3914 thank u dear😍😘😘😘😘
@@jannatl9522 you're welcome 😊👍
@@jannatl9522 any cheap cleanser will do, no one has to be a expert to tell you this. If you suffer from blemish prone skin then obviously use something that will be gentle.
Summary of the video:
Dark under eye - use caffeine. Due to blood capillaries.
Wrinkle - use retinol based product. Due to repetitively movement eyes make.
Puffiness - use cold spoon (thermo therapy). Due to build up of fluid because of bad dietary.
Your profile pic! I used to watch ドラえもん as a kid
Ty 😍😍😍
@@LisaGallegos i thought everyone watched it
thank u so much she was starting to annoy me
wym caffeine like inject caffeine in my body ??
The biggest eye cream scam I ever saw was the La Mer eye cream. Literally just Vaseline and fragrance.
I swear their moisturizer is Nivia cream as well lol , such a rip off.
Everything they sell is a scam imo
I actually use vaseline as a eyecream. 😅
@@manons6984 It does work wonders. I use jojoba oil and apply vaseline on top.
damnn I almost bought it! Until i looked at the ingredients and was like what the fuq...
My mom is an aesthetician and she refuses to sell any eye creams to her clients because she has always said they are basically glorified moisturizers.
Thanks, sweetie. Sounds like you've got a great mom!
Then what about sunscreen ? Can we use it on eye area because it's written on sunscreen not to use in eye area
@@nareshdhungana8736 I am a licensed skincare specialist and the answer is NO! In fact, many sun block creams (except the thick zinc type creams) creams and lotions have carcinogens!!! More water, more sleep, and a large pair of Sun blocking eye glasses are best!
@@nareshdhungana8736 use sunscreen that active ingredient is Mineral. You can use it on your eye. But if you have sensitive skin, your may get irritated.
I agree, I heard a famous european dermatologist saying- " eye creams is a total waste of money !"
Dr Liv! A swiss dermatologist that, yes, confirms this fact 👍 - that eye creams are a waste of money. th-cam.com/video/w9EgOjx-Ckk/w-d-xo.html
HOW CAN YOU USE COFFINE TO CURE UNDER EYE DARKEN ? WHAT TO MIX WITH COFFEE?
@@chelseahotelbusinesscentre9647 i think a tea bags
What you should look for in your eye cream:
- Caffeine (constricts the vases, causing blood to accumulate less in the area and making it less purple);
- Retinol (for wrinkles).
For puffiness:
- Thermo-therapy (i.e. eye-patches) or talk to a doctor in case of fat deposits in the area.
You mean retionol helps?
I have these glass balls I can put in the fridge and use around my eyes after washing my face and after applying my moisturizer. It is so relaxing and helps with puffiness and irritation.
Thermo- therapy- should l look for cold or warming pads? Thx
Also growth factors, anti-oxidants, vitamin c
I have read that retinol shouldn't be used in the eye area.
I love the whole “turn and learn” notion. I find myself doing this with cosmetics, food, drinks. Even dog food. I’ve become much more consciously aware of chemicals I put on and in my body.
Chemicals aren’t bad for you, your body is a chemical.
Adriana Bule i didn’t they meant it like that, i think they just meant “aware of the chemicals” not “anti chemicals”
Nature only exists because of Chemicals
It's amazing seeing self awareness really spread beyond what it was when I was a kid in the 90's. It was so hard to learn anything even if you wanted to know. Our encyclopedia set wasn't much help tbh. 😆
@@JamieYAYme imagine how mad corporations are now that consumers have the world's knowledge at their fingertips... that's why they're pushing so hard for censorship. and governments are easily bought -_-
that little graphic that comes up when you say “turn & learn” makes me so happy hahaha
"....Rubbing dollar bills underneath your eyes, and hoping it absorbs..." I love it!! Thank you for having the integrity to use your platform to dispell the nonsense, whilst sharing helpful truths with those of us who were unsuspecting.and perhaps ill-informed about the cosmetic industry and skincare.
Esthetician here: I agree with everything you said here but I wanted to add something. After using loads of eye creams in my career, I have noticed that many spa eye creams do address specific eye concerns. They tend to be non-fragrance and lighter weight. They seem to absorb better and are less irritating to they eye area that my facial creams. Some people just have dryness under their eyes and a lighter weight cream can be helpful. Beauty counters, box beauty stores and drug stores are over hyping their claims and a lot are useless. Thank you for your content. I appreciate the education you are bringing to the consumers.
Me who just bought an eye cream watching this: 👁👄👁
Same, I feel you
Any eye cream works for you???
Pratima Subedi for anything beyond moisturizing my undereyes? No. But Pixi’s cucumber caffeine eye patches help with darkness and puffiness in the morning, especially if you put them in the fridge
Looool
I got the caffeine haha
I’ve always known in my HEART that eye creams were scams lol!
Ayy me 2 lol after I watched Kylie's skin care routine I thought to myself that I needed eye cream but something wasn't right... I just felt it in my gut.. And then I came across this video 😌
But I still buy it ☹️
This was EXACTLY what I needed! Thank you so much for shedding light on eye creams and the different issues that can occur x
Cassandra, your channel is incredible! Being that I have my own training as an esthetician, nutritionist and herbalist I always go off on a tangent after watching your videos. Then, I find a video of yours on exactly what I was talking about right after! I LOVE your channel. I have been binging it and find it to be incredibly educational and fun 🤩 . I am learning so much and cannot tell you how helpful you are. Thank you so much for what you do!
Was just about to buy an eye cream with my Sephora gift card, I’m so happy you talked me out of it
I don't buy anything from Sephora but from what I assume is that their products have fragrance in them and that's a big no no. So, it’s better to check the ingredients of their products if you are planning to buy from them.
Eye creams are made especially for the eye area, always do your research before making a decision. She has no knowledge about the science behind the eye cream, if she had, she wouldn't be a youtube. Do you think she knows more than dermatologists?
@@lovelotfi4781 lol I was looking for this comment because Shiesedo eye cream saved my life 😂
@@L490sr Products with fragnance it's not something Bad it can be Bad for people that have skin that can get breakouts with fragnance or any type of sensivity
You're such a good teacher! I love the analogies like folding paper and wrinkles. Brilliant.
And this is why I follow Cassandra. I showed this video to 2 of my dermatologist friends and they both say she's just stating the truth. Something influencers and cosmetic companies do not want you to know.
Realist video ever. Much respect to you.I’ve had periorbital dark circles forever . Every time i went into Sephora they’d have me buying a million eye creams that never worked and then i realized creams don’t work for people like me. Thank you for it just promoting products like everyone else
I have been using Retin A all over my face for 8 years!! I am 47 years old and have no wrinkles!!😊💟
Eyes too? I want to start using it but too scared of the drying and initial irritating effects
@@pixiedust8899 yes I put it on my eyes all over my face!! The dryness last about 2 to 3 months!! After I call it the ugly period your skin will be transformed!! The more you use it the better your skin is!! Start slow once a week then after a month go to twice a week and so on!! You want to get to every night for the benefits!!Like I said in the comments I have been using it for 8 years!! I am 47 years old no wrinkles at all!! My advice to you is try it you have nothing to lose!! Hope that helps!!!😊

I keep seein this..... 11.11, thank u!
What does it mean? I've been seeing this number everywhere for the past 8 months
GIRL thank you for some STRAIGHT answers, after lots of research, trial and error with care...I’ve learned just alittle more and will continue to build ‘my’ eye solution. Great video of explanation and solution. I’ve got some super stubborn dark circles haha
I'm trying to do the 10 step beauty routine but I wanted to skip eye cream and save some money, so I remember to learn from the best. Some products double as serum and treatments for me, so I cut down a few steps. :) Love you and James Welsh. Y'all are on the same page. I can't believe how much your channel (and skin) has progressed and changed over the years!
I love how i now watch your videos before buying new skincare products, currently filming a the ordinary one month review and I have seen soo many of your videos about the ordinary and they were so helpful in finding what I should buy and how to use it safely and properly!!
Forever in awe of the endless information she has to share
This is SO informative! I like how you categorize the different issues and how these can be best accommodated! Skincare = selfcare! 💃🏼
I need to thank you for teaching us so much. Too many people are talking about something they don't really know but here with your explainations it finally gives me real answers
This girl is brutally honest and we absolutely love it!
I love how you break down the scientific terms! Just stumbled upon your channel yesterday and recognized you from your old acne video! It’s amazing how far you’ve come from those days! Skin wise and career wise! So admirable ❤️
Omg you're like the science teacher I've been dreaming of, thank you so much 🥺
I can't believe TH-cam recommanded me your video. The last time I've watched a video of yours was like back in 2010 or something when you used to deal with severe acné. Im happy to see you are still around and doing great ☺️😙
You make me smile ❤ So true about the eye creams. Was in the trade for over 30 years and I was constantly telling my clients the same about miracle "eye creams " I never bought into the hype. Excellent video and so much amazing information..You talk so much sense.
companies may hate you, but we love you!! thank you so much for the precious information 💓
This girl is what I need to listen to ( along other useful channels of course) for my skin routine. Thank you!!!
Wow.Just wow.I cannot thank you enough.I have dark circles,puffines and under eye circles.
This video was not only educational,it was life changing.
Once again,thank you!
Obsessed with the way she explains stuffs.
Back then when I didn’t know anything about skincare, I bought something from elf and it was only for the eyes it was supposed to get rid of dark circles. It didn’t work at all
I love how you said "to be inspired by the biology of your beauty" 😊 really made me smile
Thank you so much!!! I've watched TH-cam for like 2/3 of my life and NEVER!!!! left a comment... You are so awesome and informative I actually felt it necessary to comment... You are AMAZING &THANK YOU!!!
Alright, I'm subscribing.
I learned so much in just 11 minutes. Thank you for making complex matters graspable for everyone!
I’ve been super happy using The Ordinary Caffeine and Granactive Retinoid around my eyes. For me, the Granactive Retinoid isn’t irritating at all! I actually use Caffeine on my whole face due to your suggestion ☺️ I also use NIOD Fractionated Eye Contour Concentrate for loss of firmness.
I can't believe that I sat still, listening to someone talking very fast and actually enjoying it. Thanks for the knowledge! I've been working in marketing so I don't let myself fall into its traps; I only have a big jar of soft Nivea cream that works well everywhere on the body and my skin is still healthy. However, it's still great to learn the details!
I really like this video. She explains things so clearly and is really well spoken! Thank you for all this info. ❤
I just love how much I learn watching your videos! You are inspiring! I’ve struggled with acne for what feels like my entire life. The struggle is real. Thanks to you I’ve transitioned to a whole food plant based diet, and I’ve been using Dr. Bronner’s soap, Juice Beauty Essence and jojoba oil!!! I feel so healthy, motivated, and grateful! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️ P.S. Could you please do a video like this on acne scars and textured skin? 🙏🏽
I will say this. I have dark deep set hereditary eye circles. I was a huge sucker for eye creams and gels to help improve my eye looks. I decided to go to the drs and take a blood test to see if I have any deficiencies or allergies that might contribute to my under eye darkness/ circles. Turns out I’m anaemic, have a few vitamin deficiencies and I have mild allergies. Once I started eating cleaner and avoiding foods that would agitate my skin, my UNDER EYE DARK CIRCLES / BAGS have IMPROVED!!! Yes I still have darkness under my eyes but it is MUCH better than it was before. Also I stopped smoking and have tried to sleep 8 hours.
I use to layer my concealer to the point it was so thick I needed heavy oils to take off my makeup (lol) but now I can say I only use two layers of concealer and am so much happier.
Hi, I'm anaemic too, and have been having outside food all 3 times for past 5 years and now I've got pretty DARK circles and sunken eyes... So now I've switched back to home made food and taking better care... Can you suggest food items you consume for being anemic?
I’m turning 26 and have acne, blackheads, redness, under eye bags too! I was looking into getting eye creams, collagen and going make up free. Thank you for this info!
So informative! You’re great at explaining everything in terms lay people can understand!!
Yes you right. When I start get enough sleep and rest my dark circle missing and they said always to moisturised your under eyes since everyone said face moisturiser and eye cream are same ingredient so I use it under my eyes and it works.
Whao! The best explanations I've heard about skincare that you can understand. You use those Terms and explained what it means. So easy. Goid job and thank you. You learn everyday. 👏
As a premed student I REALLY appreciate you breaking down each term and including several types of images
Randomly came across this video under another one i was watching, and the thumbnail caught my eye.. And honestly, I don't regret clicking on here 🤗 The info you gave was so easily explained. And the WAY you carefully explained everything is so interesting. Also learning new words that sound fancy is a yes from me lol. You got a new subbie here 😉❤
When you mentioned hyperpigmentation around eyes I was hoping you’d also say what can be done with them 😔
I would literally love and enjoy taking your class if you were to ever be a professor at a college/university like this was amazing !
Oh my God!!!!
This is explained so scientifically yet so simply....
Thank you so much for making it easy to understand...
I've been watching your videos ,sincerely this one is the best of the best ,thank you so much Cassandra you have no idea how many lives you change with this valuable information ,not only for make them save money ,knowledge is freedom, can't thank you enough for such an amazing video.
Hello mam, At 4:33 you mention caffeine causes vasoconstriction. I'd humbly like to correct a little. Caffeine acts on vascular smooth muscle cells and after a short vasoconstriction effect, it causes significant vasodilatation. The under eye swelling or puffiness (non medically used term) is caused due to accumulation of tissue fluid aka lymph. Blood cannot temporarily seep out of capillaries and then go back in. So the effect of caffeine at the end is as you mention - depuffing, the process is entirely different.
Caffeine dilates the blood vessels basically, so the lymph drains out faster than it otherwise would. Even if you don't apply caffeine, it would drain ultimately, but it will take time. Caffeine helps hasten the process a bit.
The under eye area is a very sensitive one that needs a special formulation, that's why they are very similar to regular moisturizers. They avoid the irritating ingredients such as some active ingredients or preservatives. Some face moisturizers are safe for the eye area but not all of them!!
I agree with u
Well i mean she did say as long as its not crap you can you use it
Yeah, no. The skin is thinner, but it's not any more sensitive. And the fact is, they aren't actually formulating the eye creams all that differently then the rest of the face moisturizers.
Maybe you shouldn't be putting acne treatments or retinol creams around your eyes, (because of the risk to your eyes) but you don't need a specially formulated eye cream when an average moisturizer would work just as well.
@@korichamberlain3641 you do need a special eye cream if you have sensitive eyes. I guess you just never had such issues. And you are lucky. But if you have sensitive eyes, you will literally cry from an average eye cream, even a expensive one. It's not about the eye area, it's about the proximity to the eyes. The face cream from the same company does irritates my eyes if applied on the area around my eyes.
@@EvgeniiaDolinenko I agree. Also I can't believe everyone just generalizes this topic. You can't always put all face creams around your eyes. There are always exceptions. Wish someone would mention this , too. (Yes, she said "most" not "all", but still didn't address exceptions.)
this is accurate and straight to the point!!..I also spent a lot of money on eye creams because I have dark circles but honestly they didnt do anything. It is really a moisturizer in a small tube. even my regular moisturizer moisturizes my eye area better! :)
I find your videos incredibly informative; thank you so much for creating them! I’m learning new things about my skin every time
Thank you! Finally I know what to look for! Most eye cream claim to help against puffy eyebags or wrinkles, but I need something against these dark eye circles. I hate how they claim puffy eyebags and dark eye circles are the same. They are not!
Maybe try an eye cream with vitamin k or marine/seaweed extract? I believe those ingredients help to reduce undereye darkness.
Hi Cassandra! Thanks for your video and for always sharing your knowledge, I really appreciate them.
This particular video came in a great moment since I’m running out of an eye cream a friend once gave me as a present.
Based on what you shared, I believe I have periorbital hyperpigmentation. I’ve had dark circles since forever (since aprox 10 years old), and always thought they were just dark circles that I could get rid off, but they have proven to be resilient. I wanted to ask you if I understood correctly what you said, if that is in fact my case, they will never go away? I don’t really mind them, I’m already used to them, but if there IS something I can do, I’d like to know.
Thank you again for your videos! Sending you loads of respect and appreciation from Uruguay! 💙
Finally! Someone expained me what to used and what not to use even more around my issue!! Thank youuuu
Thank you so much for be real with us viewers, I was looking for a channel like yours for too long. And most of all, thank you YT recommendation.

I took your advice and stopped buying my “Clinique all about eyes rich” and started using the ordinary caffeine serum.. and guess what! My eyes are worse now! Somehow the circles got darker..I don’t what was I thinking, each body is different and some products will have an effect on someone while it won’t do anything for others..
Does the caffeine serum moisturize? Because you were using Moisturizing eye creams, did you replace that with your daily moisturizer?
@@samhaahmad9662 yes that’s what i did.. my eye circles got darker as if they got tinted or coffee stained.. I don’t know if it was due to the melatonin in it or not.. either way it didn’t work for my fair skin at all
@@alaad1072 I'd say since it does have melanin in it.... Maybe that's why it did that
I use the all about eyes too and I like it, I use it when I leave the house and I’ve had it for a year now and I still have half of it left. The Peter Thomas Roth eye cream is insane tho and I wish I heard more about it. You should check it out.
Hi Cassandra, thank you for a brutally honest review, we, your viewers, truly appreciate it. On the topic of anti-ageing (anti-wrinkles) eye creams - have you ever come across Sesderma's Retises Eye contour anti-wrinkle 0,05%? Can you advise anything based on the ingredients? Now that we know that retinol is key, I think that it would be very interesting to learn what concentration of retinol to look out for to avoid those with negligent amounts. Thank you so much if you take the time to answer my query. :)
Thank you so much for this! I know I’m 1 year late, but honestly, I’ve bought so many eye creams and none have really helped the darkness under my eyes. Now listening to this I’ve realised it’s hyperpigmentation. This has helped me so much!
Thank you so much for helping us to understand, and just being there for us so we can make good decisions.
i've been using the chanel le lift eye cream thing. one pot lasts me 3 months. I do love it. :v
Girl you break everything down so well and it’s easy to digest thank you so much love❤️
I'm so thankful that you make these videos for us🤗🤗your content is exactly what we need💜💜💜❤️❤️❤️
I honestly wanna thank you that you are using this platform for the betterment of people rather than just making money out of it !!!
Beside special treatments and eye-safe retinoids, I would also add one situation when a person would need a separate moisturiser for the eye area: oily skin.
My skin is very oily (truly oily, it stays oily the whole year and the whole face, not just the t-zone) and the moisturisers I use for the face (water creams and lotions that are basically just hydrating agents) are simply not occlusive enough for the drier under-eye area. I need more fatty, occlusive ingredients for under eyes, so I use a different product there. However, I do not use creams that are marketed as eye creams, exactly for the reasons you stated in the video. I use face creams or sleeping packs that are intended for dry or dry to normal skin types. If it's in a jar, I scoop them over to a small travel box so that I only touch and expose to air and light a small amount at a time. They last forever as I only use a tiny bit.
Thank you for saying this. My face is oily and acne prone. I bought a vegan caffeine eye cream that is more occlusive than i would put on my t zone. My oily face can only handle lightweight prdts
Like what?
Have you got any advice for a 17 year old with oily skin and under eye wrinkles?
@@selenalowe544 The Neutrogena Healthy Skin Eye Cream is a more lightweight formula. Because it contains retinol I would recommend applying it at night and making sure that you use SPF around your eyes during the day. Hope that helps!
This monday suddenly became much more interesting with a new Cassandra video 😍☕
I just used The inky list brighten eye cream and caffeine cream this week and it really seemed like it helped with puffy eyes and dark circles. I have always just used a moisturizer all over my face.
One of the best videos I ve seen on youtube! Great explanations!!!!
As as I want to agree with this whenever I stop using eye creams and use face moisturiser on my eye area I get milia or the area gets super dry. So if your eye cream helps then I would continue to use it. I recently tried the Niod fractionated eye serum and I must admit I can actually see a difference. When I finished it I used Cerave PM rather than spend again on the eye serum, but it caused dry patches so I'm back to eye creams. Guess it works for some people
My problem is that my skin is oily but my undereye area is ridiculously dry, I can already see fine lines... So I could never use the same product for the whole face 😬 But it was a very useful video nonetheless 🤗
i literally have this exact problem! having to use all these different products in different areas gets exhausting.
Here from Brazil!
Really loved the video and the brilliant way you pass along the information.
Thanks!
Sometimes such long videos aren't a pain to watch! Thanks alot for such helpful info 😊
I’ve always known that ageing can’t be stopped by the cream. That’s just marketing.
of course it can´t be stopped and there are various factors like genes and overall lifestyle that play a role in ageing. but good and most importantly constant skincare (esp from an early age on) will slow down the ageing process.
Except for tretinoin, that's scientifically proven, not even to stop but to reverse it. You can look for the papers yourself.
medical grade eye creams work: looks for vitamin c, retinol, antioxidants, growth factors, peptides, caffeine, vitamin k
Creams can kinda slow the ageing process down. But they aren't a miracle pill that you take one time and you're go to go. Retinol and Hyaluronic Acid creams have to be used everyday. You can't stop using them and hope those fine wrinkles won't come back. Because if you stop using them those fine wrinkles will come back.
And the Retinol products prescribed by a doctor are much stronger than those in over the counter moisturising creams. The over the counter stuff takes a lot longer before you see any results...... ☮️⚛️👀🌏
I meant good to go..... ☮️⚛️👀🌏
Question: would a caffeine serum help reduce the appearance of broken capillaries as well? Really great video!
I am with you!!! i always felt the same. Thankyou for saying it out loud :)
Thank you for being straight forward!
came for the skincare advice, stayed for this goddess of a woman

I’m going to assume that TH-cam isn’t her day job, rather probably something she does to spread awareness. These videos are time consuming as it is. I’m grateful for her time because I’ve learned a lot in the short time I’ve been a subscriber.
I don’t know about this type of video, but with something like tarot (for example), the subscribers watch the video, timestamps the 12 astrological signs in the comments, and the creator pins them to the top for the other subscribers. It’s a show of gratitude. Like, “hey, thanks for taking the time to create and edit this free educational video for me.”
But i have all three 😂😂😂
@@irishbernadette6408 Did you figure it out?
I just found you video and very impressed by your honest comments on eyes cream. Thank you for sharing !
THANK YOU!!! I literally searching the recommendation of eye cream and this video is showed up 🙏
Thank you very much!!!
I'm also an esthetician and I have periorbital hyperpigmentation. It has worsened considerably with age. Im assuming to treat it the same way you would as hyperpigmentation like sun spots etc? I was considering plastic surgery but from what the doctor told me it sounded like he would just be removing fat. I have no inflammation. So thank you so much for this this video I will definitely reconsider the surgery.
I have only moisturiser, but use sometimes hyaluronic acid serum for eyes.
All that moisture !
There are lots of good and informative videos on TH-cam, but not outstanding information bombs like this. Thank you! I don't hit the bell often but now I did.
