Puffiness, dark circles, wrinkles? Decode the ingredients of eye contour creams and find the perfect care for your needs. A complete guide to help you select the best eye contour cream for your concerns.
Particularly exposed to external aggressors, the skin around the eyes is 4 to 5 times thinner than the rest of the face, and has no sebaceous glands. Without sebum, the skin's barrier function is diminished, making it much more permeable to all the aggressions of daily life.
What's more, we blink around 10,000 times a day, and touch or rub our eyes very frequently throughout the day.
That's why it's so important to care for the eye contour area with the right products.
Delicate and prone to irritation, the skin around the eyes needs to be moisturized, especially when using make-up remover.
After cleansing your face, apply a moisturizing cream with an eye contour formula to prevent irritation or dryness in this specific area.
There are different types of eye contour cream to suit your needs, such as creams with hyaluronic acid to moisturize the epidermis, antioxidants to protect cells from oxidative stress, or peptides to restore radiance to sensitive and dehydrated skin.
