The delicate skin under our eyes is often the first to show signs of ageing, stress, and fatigue. With its thin, fragile nature and constant exposure to environmental stressors, this area requires special attention and care. In this guide, we'll explore the best practices for maintaining a youthful, radiant eye contour and introduce you to a powerful solution!
Why Is It So Important To Take Care Of Your Under Eye Area?
The eye contour has the thinnest and most fragile skin on the face, which is why it’s so important to take care of the under-eye area. The skin under the eyes lacks sebaceous glands, collagen, and elastin fibres and is under the strain of 22 muscles in perpetual motion, making it the first area to show signs of ageing.
How To Take Care Of Your Under Eye Skin
Gently Remove Makeup
The eye zone is continuously in motion and can be damaged by everyday environmental aggressors such as pollution, blue light from phone screens, and even our own make-up and other skincare. The first step to caring for your eyes is to thoroughly remove make-up. Mascara and eyeliner residue tend to irritate your pupils and, in the long term, can lead to "slackened eyelids". To remove make-up properly, moisten a cotton pad with a gentle, moisturising make-up remover. Avoid harsh rubbing to protect the delicate skin.
Reduce The Signs Of Fatigue
Dark circles make the eyes look shadowed and tired. To effectively reduce dark circles and signs of fatigue, the best solution is to use a targeted under-eye cream. Crème Du Loch Age-Defying Daily Eye Concentrate (30ml) is specially formulated to reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness while smoothing the eye contour area, revealing fresher and more youthful-looking eyes.
Boost The Radiance Of Your Eyes
To boost the radiance of your eyes, choose an oxygenation-boosting, brightening eye cream. Products with hydrating and illuminating properties can instantly enhance the eye area.
Dab a small amount onto the eye contour daily to brighten and rejuvenate the eyes.
Lift Your Eyelids
Heavy eyelids can make you look tired. The solution? Use an eye cream containing Quicklift®, a natural sugar polymer with an instant and long-lasting skin tightening effect. It was the best candidate for its skin tightening properties among over 400 substances. This powerful ingredient helps lift eyelids and provides a smoother appearance to the eye contour, offering both immediate and lasting benefits.
Opt For Regenerating Skincare
To complement these beauty steps, you can also use skincare products with intense energising and pro-youth action. Multi-corrective eye creams that address wrinkles, firmness, radiance, dark circles, and puffiness are ideal for a complete eye care routine.
Why Use An Eye Cream?
Since the skin around the eyes is so thin, it needs to be treated delicately. Eye creams are specially formulated for this sensitive area and address very unique concerns such as dark circles, fine lines, and sagging. They often include key ingredients that target common under-eye skin issues effectively.
How To Apply An Eye Cream?
Eye creams should be applied gently, avoiding any pulling or tugging on the delicate under-eye skin. Lightly dab a small amount of your under-eye product, smoothing from the inner corner under the eye and finishing at the outer corner. This technique follows three pressure points to boost circulation and maximise the cream's effectiveness. For ultra-control, cleanliness and a cooling effect, nothing can beat a spatula applicator. Many brands include one of these in gift sets, if not, brands will often sell them for a minimal cost and are usually made of quality materials.
By incorporating these steps into your skincare routine and using a high-quality product like Crème Du Loch Age-Defying Daily Eye Concentrate, you can maintain a youthful, radiant eye area for years to come.
