The right care
For wrinkles
The skin around the sensitive eye area is up to ten times thinner than the rest of the face. In addition, there is little subcutaneous fat and active facial expressions with up to 10,000 eyelid movements a day. No wonder that this is where skin ageing first makes itself felt and wrinkles around the eyes become visible. Good eye creams with active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, retinol, soy extract or valuable plant oils effectively counteract this.
Against puffiness
The slowdown in microcirculation with age leads to poorer drainage. Too high a temperature in the bedroom (18 degrees is ideal) and a pillow that is too high can also be the cause. Products with a metal roll-on applicator simply massage the puffiness away. Lightly pigmented formulas catch the light and make the eye area glow again.
For dark circles
What causes those annoying dark circles? Sleeping less than seven to eight hours a night can be a trigger, as can allergies that dilate the blood vessels around the eyes, which quickly looks like dark circles. Hyperpigmentation in this region can be genetic or caused by UV radiation. However, there are helpful remedies for dark circles under the eyes. For example, creams with vitamin C can help by lightening them. Good concealers cover effectively.
