Eye creams

I know I'm still young but just the other day i looked in the mirror and saw crease under my eye that is made obvious when I smile.--- Not like a normal crease, but more like a huge line the shoots through my under eye area. I know its genetics because my mother, aunt, grandma, etc all have delicate under eye areas that have either sagged or have several wrinkles-or both.
So I kind of had a mini meltdown and immediately started buying under eye creams. I thought I could just rely on my facial moisturizers but now I've stepped it up a notch.
I purchased the Strivectin eye cream which is supposed the reduce wrinkles, firm the skin, reduce puffiness and dark undereye circles.  In conjunction with that I have also been using L'Occitane Immortelle Eye Balm. It is supposed to have the same results as the Strivectin cream. And let me tell you-- it's working. I used Strivectin first for like 2 weeks and then I switched over to L'Occitane. I think L'Occitane worked better because it seemed to really absorb into my skin. Either way, I'm switching between the two to try to achieve optimal results. I hope it works before I panic and start getting "Housewives of Beverly Hills crazy" with botox.
Are there any creams out there that you have tried and recommend?
