A member asked:

Can face creams also cause eye bags?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Unlikely: If you are allergic to the cream you can get swelling around your eyes, which may look like eye bags.

Not usually: If there is an allergy to the creams a contact dermatitis can occur resulting in edema and itching with subsequent drying and cracking of skin.
