The skin around the eyes is thinner than in the rest of the face and therefore extra sensitive. Dark circles under the eyes can have something to do with being tired but it is normally something that comes with age. The skin gets thinner as you get older and this makes the blood-vessels under the skin more visible making the area under the eyes look dark.
The area around the eyes is also the first area where lines and wrinkles appear. An eye cream can help reducing the dark circles to some extent but if you have a serious problem it is better to use a concealer (see lesson 8) instead.
Eye cream moisturizes the sensitive area around the eye. They contain very mild ingredients and can seem expensive since the bottles are small. You only use a very small amount though (we are talking tiny amounts here) and therefore the bottle will last a very long time.
Eye creams will help to reduce lines and help prevent wrinkles. Sadly, just like other products, eye creams will not be able to remove wrinkles and lines completely but they will help prevent against early damage that is be caused by UV light, pollution, poor diet (don’t fool yourself though – you cannot substitute a bad diet with products in the long run), lack of sleep and stress. How to apply… To get the best effect you should use eye cream both in the mornings and evenings. The cream is applied by padding it onto the area under the eye. Start from the outside and work carefully towards the nose. The last thing you do is to stroke some from the outer corner of your eyes towards the temple since this is where wrinkles first appear. Tricks…
* If using a concealer to cover those dark circles you should start with eye créme. * To boost the effect a little, or at least feel it more, you can store the crème in the fridge. * To really boost the effect you can use an eye mask or complete the eye créme with a cooling mask for the eyes. Another trick that is absolutely essential to keep lines and wrinkles away from your eyes is to wear sun glasses religiously (meaning not only when it is sunny). This is one of the best ways to care for that sensitive area around the eyes and together with healthy living and good products you will keep the lines away for another couple of years. Now that you will be able to look fresher than ever around the eye you might have to freshen up on the moisturzing - click HERE to do that.
