Eyes are the most precious part of our body that reflects
your personality. Hence it's important to take care
of them. Due to stress eyes and the skin around the
eyes get strongly affected. We can keep the younger
looking eyes for more periods with the help of Eye
Creams. An eye cream is effective anti-aging
treatment which gives the better results with in
a blink of an eye.It is a cream that has been tested
by ophthalmologists to be safe to use near your eyes.
The label of a safe eye cream will of often say that
the cream matches the pH level of your tears. Eye creams
usually do not contain any fragrance, and tend to be
more emollient than regular moisturizers.
How to apply an eye cream?
To get the better results it's important to know the
proper way of applying an eye cream. Proper application
will reduce chances of irritation - including redness
and swelling.
Take a tiny amount of any eye cream to cover the area.
Using the ring finger or pinkey - dot the eye cream
along the edge of the bone surrounding the eye. Two
dots of cream should be sufficient to cover the area.
Gently pat (do not rub!) the cream into the skin - staying
around the edge of the bone. Do not get closer! Eye
creams, once absorbed into the skin, will spread. If
the eye cream is applied to close to the eyelid - the
cream will reach the delicate areas of the lashline
and increase the risk of swelling and irritation.
Most eyecreams contain instructions not to apply to
the upper eyelid. If there are no such warnings, the
proper way to apply it would be to the lower edge of
the brow bone. Pat into the skin until absorbed. Any
closer might result in irritation and swelling.
