(Men's Health) - Unfortunately, for most men it’s inevitable to notice their eyes looking more tired with puffiness and wrinkles. It’s been happening to me since I was about 22 and it always bothered me. Even worse. But staying hydrated and moisturized can only do so much.

I figured there were better ways to help diminish puffy eyes and wrinkles that didn't involve an invasive surgery (no, thank you!).

Recently, more brands are releasing ultra-hydrating creams and sticks that can help rejuvenate the skin around the eyes for a fresh, younger look.

Of course there are now dozens upon dozens of products for men that claim they work, but it’s hard to know what’s actually effective and safe. 

That’s where we come in. I put my best product reviewers to the test to find the best eye repair products for men that don’t require prescription or invasive surgeries.

Let’s get started…

Effectiveness: 95%

Safety: 100%

Price: $

Overall: A+

This is by far our favorite eye repair product for helping diminish the appearance of fine lines, puffiness, and wrinkles. Mane's Eye Repair Stick uses a special formula of nutrients and peptides to condition the skin and help boost moisture and collagen production for fuller, firmer skin. We found out about Mane when they offered us a secret 50% discount code SECRET50. We tried it for three weeks, using everyday after moisturizing. Several of our reviewers noticed a significant decrease in puffiness and lines. This really is our top recommendation, and encourage anyone who wants smoother, younger looking skin to try this out!

SAVE 50% with CODE SECRET50

Effectiveness: 80%

Safety: 100%

Price: $$$$

Overall Value: B+

This affordable serum is a great option for men who are looking for a quick fix for puffy eyes. It contains caffeine, which can help reduce inflammation and swelling. It's quite pricey for the amount you receive, so don't use too much too fast!

Effectiveness: 80%

Safety: 85%

Price: $$

Overall Value: B+

This moisturizing cream is a good choice for men who have dry or sensitive skin. It contains hyaluronic acid, which can help hydrate the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This is probably the most basic of the products, but always a reliable brand to say the least.

Effectiveness: 75%

Safety: 80%

Price: $$$

Overall Value: C

This cream is packed with antioxidants and peptides, which can help improve the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. It didn't help as much for wrinkles, which we would have liked to see. But, hey, can't win them all!

Effectiveness: 85%

Safety: 85%

Price: $$

Overall Value: B

This cream contains vitamin C, which can help brighten the skin and reduce the appearance of dark circles. It also has a light, refreshing fragrance. We really liked this product, but it didn't seem to help wrinkles either. Mane's Eye Repair Stick was the only product on our list that showed definitive results.

While we believe we recommended some great eye repair products to help diminish the appearance of fine lines and puffiness, we believe Mane's Eye Repair Stick is the absolute best option. We wanted to talk further with our investigative reporter Mark Herring who helped create the rankings list and how he discovered the greatness that is Mane.

My girlfriend only recently pushed moisturizer on me, haha. It’s not that I don’t believe in any of the stuff (hell, I research and write about it all the time). I just never thought I needed most of it. My skin is fairly clear and never had many issues with acne or anything like that. That said, recently I've noticed my eyes looking puffier when I wake up in the morning. And when I smile, a plethora of wrinkles.

So when I was put on assignment to find some amazing eye repair products, I was happy to test some things out. Unfortunately, not a lot made the cut. Too many products are basically just hyped-up moisturizers for a high price.

I sort’ve gave up.

But then I noticed my best friend, who I trust with my life, looking younger and healthier in the face than before. Last time I remembered he had big puffy eye bags dragging his face down. But nothing of that sort today...

I asked him what was up and he shot out of his chair and grabbed the Mane's Eye Repair Stick. He said he tried a few things but that Mane was the only brand that he felt like actually delivered. I was skeptical, but when he showed me a photo from like 2 months ago, I was blow away. His eyes looked ten years younger, I couldn't believe. it.

I asked him to let me borrow his Eye Repair Stick, but instead he told me to buy my own like a real adult LOL. Luckily he gave me the secret 50% off discount SECRET50. So I ordered two sticks immediately.

I received the package two days later and used as instructed. After showering, moisturize (if you do that), then apply a small amount of the stick to your under eyes and crows feet.

Of course, I looked into the mirror and expected immediate results, but with products like these you got to use them everyday for about three weeks before you notice anything. In the meantime, I wanted to know what made Mane's Eye Repair Stick do what it did. 

A combination of essential oils and nutrients help not only moisturize skin, but boost collagen production to help decrease the signs of wrinkles and sunken eyes.

So, finally, after 4 weeks, I decided to check if I could see results… and wow! My puffy eyes were completely gone and the darkness around the eyes had faded as well. I was stunned.
