You can get filler under your eyes. I put it off for a while because it scared me but it turned out to be totally fine. It definitely made a difference. Next time I might even do a little more.

Have you considered that many more of your acquaintances also use Botox, they just don't advertise it to everyone? Plenty of people quietly use it, don't tell others, and look good because they're just using a relatively small amount, which softens lines but still allows movement. Done with a light touch, it can have good results.


+1
Funny how people assume they know exactly what everyone around them is doing. I am not using Botox but if I were to use it, I wouldn't tell a soul.

What are 11s?

I'm in my mid 30s, spend $225 on a big-ass bottle of Chanel Le Lift Serum every so often, and find that it works really well. I get carded constantly since using it. Cheaper than Botox and way more natural-looking.

I've done it twice. I'm 43. Loved the effect but it wore off after 2 months. I have very strong forehead muscles, my doc says. Not sure I'll do it again--it cost $700 each time.

Good idea to get ahead, its better to start early before the lines set in
