It also has a caffeine-tetrapeptide blend; the tetrapeptides decrease fluid around the eyes, while also helping to fight the loss of collagen and elastin. And caffeine is, of course, a great ingredient for helping eyes look brighter and more awake.<\/p>\n<p>As New York-based esthetician Jolie De Feis told\u00a0Well+Good\u00a0previously, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/caffeine-concealers-eye-creams\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/caffeine-concealers-eye-creams\/\">Caffeine is a vasoconstrictor<\/a>, which means it reduces blood flow, making it a popular addition to eye products to reduce the appearance of puffy eyes and improve overall brightness.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>My honest thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>First off, this is <em>not<\/em> your typical eye cream. In fact, the brand suggests using an eye moisturizer before applying No More Baggage, so I used <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.skimresources.com%3Fid%3D104860X1561639%26xs%3D1%26xcust%3DSTMSBT-1085129%26url%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.cremedelamer.com%252Fproduct%252F20652%252F74983%252Fface%252Feye-treatments%252Fthe-eye-concentrate%2523%252Fsku%252F115246&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fdr-brandt-no-more-baggage-review%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.cremedelamer.com\/product\/20652\/74983\/face\/eye-treatments\/the-eye-concentrate#\/sku\/115246\">La Mer The Eye Concentrate<\/a>, which also has a gel-like consistency and absorbs fast. Once it\u2019s dry, you put a tiny amount of the No More Baggage 2.0 on your fingers, warming it up, then patting it gently on your eye area. Wait about three to five minutes to let it dry completely.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_1085143\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1085143\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1085143 js-inline-lazy-load\" alt=\"dr brandt no more baggage eye cream\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/dr-brandt-before-after_falsexfalse_true_70.webp\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1085143\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Marie Lodi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>Because it\u2019s a different kind of eye care product, I did it completely wrong the first time, so make sure you apply it correctly and take your time to let both the eye moisturizer you use beforehand, and No More Baggage completely dry. This is extremely important\u2014otherwise, you might end up experiencing pilling, like I did. Once I did it correctly, it worked great! I noticed that my under-eye area looked brighter and more hydrated, and the contours around my eyes looked a lot less dark. I was also able to put my concealer on without any issues. In fact, my makeup looked amazing! Basically, if you&#8217;re looking for an eye cream that acts as a social media filter IRL, this is your best bet.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_1085149\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1085149\" style=\"width: 1170px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1085149 js-inline-lazy-load\" alt=\"dr. brandt no more baggage eye cream with makeup\" width=\"1170\" height=\"1570\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/marie-with-makeup_falsexfalse_true_70.webp\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1085149\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Marie Lodi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you, too, have puffy eye bags or dark circles, you have to try No More Baggage 2.0. Just make sure you don\u2019t rush into the application process and give yourself a few minutes to let everything dry. You\u2019ll trick everyone you know into thinking you got good sleep last night, though you totally should get enough sleep!
