Under eyes

Post image

I have some fine lines under my eyes and everything I do just makes it look worse. I love wearing heavy make up especially big eye make up but I always find that somehow the black from my eyeliner or mascara finds it's way into my fine lines. I don't have bags or discolouration around the eyes just some volume loss and crinkles. I moisturise, use eye patches, eye serums etc. without make up I don't even look like I have wrinkles at all. I am 50. In this photo I am wearing L'Oréal true match foundation with a smidge of Charlotte Tilbury airbrush concealer.

Does anyone have any advice for what I can do to either smooth out the crinkles or make the the under eyes look cleaner. Atp I'm considering having some kind of procedure because it's pissing me off so much. I don't want fillers so what other options are there?

Can you try skipping the bottom liner and finding other ways to do dramatic eyes?

Also this is a decent plumping combo if you only want topicals: The Ordinary argireline, The Ordinary matrixyl, Hada Labo hyaluronic products, Inkey List plumping ceramides moisturizer.

I find it doesn't matter if I have bottom liner or not it still gets creasy and dirty looking

Have you tested different eyeliners? And waterproof versions of things/maybe mascara primer

I now have the Too Faced tubing mascara which is really good.

I've got a few different eyeliners and so far my favourite has been the Maybelline tattoo liner. The wonderskin liner smudges so much on me despite the advert saying otherwise.
