Does everyone need an eye cream?

If your under-eye area is problem-free and you are a certain age, you might think that you do not need an eye cream. Dermatologists, however, beg to differ. They recommend the use of a good eye cream not only to address visible issues such as puffy eyes, dark circles, or fine lines under the eyes but also as a preventative measure against these problems. If these are the skin issues that concern you, investing in a good eye cream is essential.

What is the correct way to apply your eye cream?

After cleansing, toning, and applying serum to your skin, you can go ahead and apply eye cream under your eyes. Dip your clean ring finger into the product to scoop a pea-sized amount of the product or use an accompanying silicone/plastic accessory to help scoop out the appropriate amount. Gently massage it into the area under and around your eyes. Do not wash it off.

I've also been informed by my own skincare aesthetician that it is completely safe to apply eye cream to the upper part of your eyelids (browline). This additional step can provide comprehensive care for the entire eye area, addressing concerns on both the lower and upper lids.

What ingredients should you look for in an eye cream?

The ingredients you look for in your eye cream differ significantly with the specific problem you are fighting. For anti-aging effects, look for retinoids and peptides in your eye cream. For puffy eyes, choose eye creams with antioxidants, niacinamide, herbal and botanical extracts, and sodium hyaluronate. Hyaluronic acid and essential oil extracts are ingredients that help with hydration and moisturizing of the delicate area.

Can eye creams diminish dark circles?

Depending on the type of eye cream, yes. Some eye creams are produced specifically to remove the appearance of dark circles. You want to look for certain ingredients which should include peptides, certain acids, and botanical extracts. Not only eye creams, but certain eye patches, which are fairly common, are designed for anti-aging abilities such as reducing wrinkles and fine lines, puffiness, and crow's feet.

What is the best time to apply eye cream?

Most dermatologists agree that nighttime is the best time for eye cream; this is because many eye creams contain ingredients that may harm your skin when exposed to sunlight. However, if you apply eye cream in the morning, be sure to use sunscreen. Be consistent with your skincare regimen, and you certainly will see results."
