2 Stellar Anti-Aging Skincare Products for Your Eyes



The skin under your eyes is one of the most sensitive areas of your body. This area is often a target of dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles, all of which impact your self-esteem. Eye bags usually occur as a result of lack of sleep and lethargy. On the other hand, over-exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays can also cause the skin under your eyes to age prematurely.

However, the great news is that you can use anti-aging eye cream and eye serum under your eyes to improve their appearance. Many people often get confused between the two products. So, let’s discuss both of them in detail so that you can say goodbye to wrinkles and fine lines once and for all!

1. Eye Cream

The primary factor that sets the two apart is their texture. Anti-aging cream for eyelids is naturally thicker and heavier. This is mainly due to the high concentration of fats and oils and lack of watery additions.

Eye creams tend to offer only surface level treatment. The primary goal of anti-aging cream for eyelids is to hydrate the skin surrounding your eyes, giving them an airbrushed look. Very rarely do eye creams contain certain active ingredients that are meant for targeted use. Moreover, due to their large molecule size, it is difficult for your skin to absorb the anti-aging cream.

Choosing an under-eye cream depends on your skin type. There are different types of under eye creams for dry, oil or combination skin. However, once you find the perfect one for your skin, you are good to go!

How to Apply Eye Cream

You should apply eye cream very delicately under your eyes. Just take some on your fingers and massage it onto your skin in slow motions. Make sure that you don’t apply it too close to your eye otherwise it can cause irritation. Also, it takes about 15 minutes for your skin to absorb the eye cream so make sure that you don’t disrupt the absorption process.

2. Eye Serum

Anti-aging eye serums have an extremely low viscosity. Due to this, it almost feels as if it flows like water.  Eye serums operate in a completely different manner from eye creams. Anti-aging eye serums contain active ingredients that are used for targeted treatments and can be fully absorbed by your skin. In fact, the molecule size of these active ingredients is so small that your skin has no choice but to absorb it effectively.

How to Apply Eye Serum

Since eye serum already has a watery consistency, you should only take a very small amount. Now, apply it lightly under your eyes and tap it with your fingers. Eye serums work relatively quicker so you will be done with a minute or two!

Importance of using Eye Serum and Eye Cream

Using eye serum and eye cream is a crucial step in skincare, offering numerous benefits tailored specifically for the delicate skin around the eyes. The skin in this area is significantly thinner and more sensitive than the rest of the face, making it more susceptible to signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circles.

Eye serums, with their lightweight and highly concentrated formulas, are designed to penetrate deeply into the skin, delivering active ingredients such as retinol, peptides, and antioxidants. These ingredients work synergistically to rejuvenate the skin, improve elasticity, and reduce the appearance of aging. Serums are particularly effective in targeting specific concerns like puffiness and dark circles, thanks to their potent composition.

On the other hand, eye creams play a vital role in hydrating and protecting this sensitive area. They typically have thicker, more emollient textures that create a barrier on the skin, locking in moisture and preventing transepidermal water loss. This hydration is key to maintaining a plump, youthful appearance and can also help in minimizing the appearance of fine lines.

Eye creams often contain ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and niacinamide, which not only moisturize but also strengthen the skin's natural barrier. Regular use of eye cream can significantly improve the overall texture and tone of the skin around the eyes, making it look brighter and more awake.

Conclusion

Together, eye serums and creams provide a comprehensive approach to eye care, addressing both deep-rooted concerns and surface-level hydration needs.All in all, under-eye creams and eye serums are two of the best anti-aging skincare products you can use to keep your under-eye area wrinkle free!
