Hi, I'm Kali, and I've been a dermatologist for around 15 years. Here are the 5 things I wish more women knew about what's really causing their signs of aging and what I recommend doing about it.
Reason 1

#1The Root Of The Problem

What Causes Your Dark Circles: The skin under your eyes is some of the thinnest skin on your face. What keeps your skin thick and firm is collagen and as you age your body makes less of it, making your under eye skin even thinner and letting blood vessels show through as dark circles. It's not bad sleep, it's thinning skin from low collagen production.

What Causes Your 11 Lines And Smile Lines: Same thing, low collagen production. Every time you frown, squint, or smile, your muscles crease the same spots. Collagen is what helps your skin return to its smooth shape when your face relaxes. So as collagen levels decline, your skin doesn't smooth out as well, and those creases last longer, until they're even there when your face is relaxed.

What Causes Your Puffy Eyes: When you're lying down asleep, gravity isn't pulling fluid downward through your body like it does when you're upright, so fluid starts to accumulate under your eyes instead of draining out normally. Collagen plays a role here too. The tissue under your eyes rely on collagen to hold its shape and support proper drainage. As collagen levels decline, fluid has a harder time draining leaving you with puffy eyes in the morning.

Reason 2

#2The Reason Most "Collagen" Products Do Nothing

You've probably tried creams and serums with "collagen" on the label. The problem is collagen molecules are too big to reach the deeper layers of your skin, so they mostly stay on the surface just adding moisture, and don't solve the root problem at all.

A better approach is helping your skin make more of its own collagen. And that's where peptides changed the game.

Reason 3

#3The 5 Minute Fix Women Are Calling "DIY Botox"

Instead of adding collagen on top, peptides actually tell your skin's own cells to produce more collagen from within. This thickens the skin under your eyes, so blood vessels appear less visible and your dark circles fade. It also restores your skin's ability to return to its smooth shape, so your 11 lines and smile lines disappear too. And since collagen supports the tissue under your eyes and helps fluid drain properly, more collagen means less fluid builds up and no more puffy eyes.

For many years usually the only way to reap the benefits of peptides was to manually inject them. However there is finally a way you can achieve the same results without the needle, and that's with peptide infused face tape. It turns out the same signal can reach your skin just by sitting on it long enough. As a dermatologist when my patients ask for what brand I recommend I without a doubt say Elara because they're the only ones that keep their peptide content high and don't cheap out on us like the knock offs. They also have Niacinamide and Caffeine which helps hydrate skin, calm redness, balance oil, and fade dark spots.

"Absolutely love these. I use them every other night. I was worried they'd fall off because I'm a side sleeper and toss and turn all night, I practically backflip in bed. But when I wake up they're always exactly where I put them."

"The eye patches stayed on all night and weren't uncomfortable. I removed them gently and had no issues. There was obvious improvement in the puffiness under my eyes and a little softness of my dark circles. Definitely saw some improvement in the crow's feet. I finally feel whole again."

"Changed everything for me!!! I was so self conscious about my dark circles and 11 lines, nothing I tried actually worked. That was until I tried Elara™. Now I use these every night and finally feel like myself again."

#5You Have Nothing To Lose Except Your 11 Lines, Smile Lines, And Dark Circles

You've tried the moisturizers. The eye creams. Maybe even started researching Botox appointments you're not sure you actually want to book. None of it worked because none of it actually reached the problem. This does.

Every day with every hour that goes by and every expression you make it gets worse and none of it is something you have to just live with. You tried to do everything right, get healthy sleep, drink enough water, and take care of yourself. And you still catch yourself staring in the mirror, at the parts of your face that make you look older and more tired than you actually feel. Give Elara a try Risk-Free today and finally start to feel like yourself again.
