This is something I never bothered with whilst I was younger
however as I’m getting older and noticing the dark circles, sagging and
lines; using an eye cream is something I've started doing. Whilst prevention would have been
better, at least it’s something I’m working on now.
From an anatomy point of view, the skin around the eye is
much thinner than on the rest of your face.
It is also more delicate and sensitive.
Using a heavier, standard face cream is more likely to result in puffy
eyes (exactly the look I’m hoping to avoid).
One of the many benefits of using eye creams is that they’re specially
formulated for this thinner, more sensitive area around your eyes. Another benefit with eye creams is they often
include ingredients which help prevent issues such as dark circles, sagging and
lines.
I apply a tiny drop (grain of rice size) to my ring finger
and very gently dab around the eye area (without actually putting any in my
eye). Be careful not to drag or pull the
skin which may result in more sagging.
My current favourite eye cream is the Neal’s Yard Remedies
Organic White Tea Toning Eye Gel. It’s
cooling and refreshing and contains white tea, with its powerful anti-oxidant
properties. For more information see https://uk.nyrorganic.com/shop/HeatherWinterton/product/0535/white-tea-toning-eye-gel-10ml/
