Lack of sleep, computer screens and laptops ... the eye area, perpetually moving, is not spared. Very fragile, she deserves to be pampered morning and evening with a specific care.
This sensitive area is the first to show signs of fatigue. Fine lines, dark circles, pockets settle in the blink of an eye ... What should make an eye contour? What ingredients should it contain and on the contrary which ones to avoid? What you need to know to choose this care for it to be effective and adapted to its needs.
What we ask for a good eye contour:
To moisturize: on this thin and irrigated zone, hydration brings comfort, reduces wrinkles and signs of fatigue.
Plumping the epidermis: thanks to the hyaluronic acid , very often present in this type of formula, which strongly retains the surface water and ensures a refreshing effect
To protect : because the eye contour needs to be preserved so as not to age prematurely
Refreshing the eyes: to optically erase the shadow areas, the mineral pigments tinted care provide an immediate result
To correct the dark circles : the pockets as well as the wrinkles which mark, dig and give a tired aspect to our glance. So to decongest this area and avoid the "puffy eyes" effect on waking, the formula must contain ingredients such as caffeine, both energizing, lipolytic (anti-fat) and draining.
The ingredients it must contain:
Moisturizing agents: Hyaluronic acid moisturizes and plumps surface wrinkles.
Antioxidants: such as vitamins C and E , polyphenols or green tea , active agents that act as a barrier to free radicals, the main cause of aging.
Anti-aging active ingredients: They stimulate the production of collagen and elastin: anti- wrinkle and lifting peptides, resveratrol, algae extracts ...
Soothing components: Cornflower water,
aloe vera or cucumber extract soothe irritation.
What to look for in an eye area
- Hyperactive essential oils:
very fragrant, they can irritate this sensitive area and close to the mucous membranes. While some contours of the eyes (often organic) contain small doses, home-grown enthusiasts prefer to use "lighter" floral waters. The right alternative to limit the
risks!
- AcidsJust like salicylic or glycolic acids, fruit acids (AHA) and retinol (derived from vitamin A) are to be used under the supervision of a dermatologist on this area of the skin.
