Eye Cream - A Closer Look

Are your peepers in need of an eye cream? If they do, then it's no surprise. The area around our eyes is the most prone to aging and it needs all the help it can get. So will any wrinkle cream best suit this dilemma? The answer is no. To know why, let's look closely at the facts on wrinkle creams.

 

Facial creams should not substitute eye creams. Most facial creams contain ingredients too strong for the eye area.

If your eye product causes stinging or burning, stop using it.

Creams come in two types: anti-wrinkles and those that fight bags, puffiness and dark circles.

 

Choosing the best cream can be overwhelming. There are a lot of factors to consider. But since we're dealing with eye wrinkles, let's focus on those that are intended for that area.

 

Eye Cream for Crow's Feet, Fine Lines and Wrinkles

 

  • Make sure to use anti-wrinkle products that contain anti-oxidants and Vitamins C and E. Retinoid or Vitamin A protects skin from breaking down and help smoothen wrinkles. Other types of retinoid increases collagen production and strengthen skin.

  • Choose a cream that's light-weight and glides easily. A heavy cream can block your pores or make your skin puffy.

  • If you have problems other than wrinkles, there are “multi-tasking” eye products available.

  • Always sample products before buying one.

Just because the best creams are available doesn't mean you're off the hook. Remember that anti-wrinkle creams don't change the fact that the eye area contains very little subcutaneous fat, no oil, and is subjected to constant rubbing, blinking and squinting. So aside from a wrinkle cream, be sure to follow these tips.

  • Treat the eye area gently when applying something.

  • Wear sunglasses all the time when you're outdoors.

  • Quit smoking!

  • Drink at least 8 glasses of water daily.

  • Give yourself a lot of rest. Get 8 hours of sleep and take power naps.

It's so easy to get lazy or forget about all these. But wouldn't it be worth your while if those windows of yours will always reflect a youthful soul?
