You will find this brief wrinkle cream eye review more helpful than some of the others.  Instead of telling you how this or that under eye wrinkle cream worked for me.  Let me tell you about some that you should avoid due to hazardous ingredients.

Avon Wrinkle Cream Eye Review

Cosmetic companies include lots of hazardous ingredients in their creams and lotions.  Because the skin beneath the eyes is extremely delicate and thinner than other portions of the face, you should never buy under eye wrinkle cream that contains known irritants or allergens.

It is also important because the creams are to be used so close to the eyes and are likely to get in to the eyes.  The Avon product contains six different ingredients that are known to irritate the skin and eyes, as well as methyl-paraben which is prone to cause allergic reactions.

But, worse still, they include an anti-caking agent called Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate, a compound that is known to be toxic to the human nervous system.

Jack Black Wrinkle Cream Eye Review

As far as hazardous ingredients are concerned, Jack decided to include most of them in his under eye wrinkle cream.  Maybe, he thought that “tough guys” could handle it.

Out of 31 different ingredients, only four of them are non-hazardous.  The worst one is an emulsifier known as PEG-8 STEARATE, a known skin irritant that is toxic to human organs.

Klein-Becker Wrinkle Cream Eye Review

You can tell by the warnings on the package that this product is known to irritate the skin and cause allergic reactions.  They advise you to test it on a small area of the forearm before use.  In all honesty, you should avoid the use of creams and lotions with warning labels like this.  Allergic reactions can send you to the dermatologist’s office.  They can be severe enough to cause permanent scarring.

The Klein-Becker under eye wrinkle cream contains DMDM HYDANTOIN, a preservative that “can instigate immune system response that can include itching, burning, scaling, hives, and blistering of skin”, according to the National Cosmetic Ingredient Review Assessments.

A Safe Wrinkle Cream

You can find safe and effective under eye wrinkle cream, if you know what to look for.  You can’t find it by reading consumer reviews.  Even if you don’t have particularly sensitive skin or allergies, why take chances?

Look for preservative and fragrance free products that contain natural plant extracts, honey, coenzyme Q10, vitamin E and honey.  All of these ingredients work together to reduce wrinkles, bags and dark circles under the eyes.

Look for a company that has clinical studies to back up its claims and is a signer of the “Compact for Safe Cosmetics”.  Always, keep safety in mind when you are shopping, especially when it comes to your face and the area around your eyes.  It just makes sense.

Hopefully, this wrinkle cream eye review helped you understand a little bit about the hazards that are found in health and beauty aids.  Knowledge is an important tool for today’s consumer.
