Before the age of 25, it is enough to take care of your skin by washing off the applied makeup before going to bed, as well as maintaining a sufficient amount of nutrients. After 25, care should consist of 3 components: cleansing, moisturizing and toning.
Cleansing
Let's figure out how to care for the skin around the eyes at home?
Cleansing the skin around the eyes of makeup is a daily procedure for skin care up to 25 years. For this, a special cosmetic milk is used. Latest news in this area, these are two immiscible liquids of different composition. The first of them contains ultra-light oils that cleanse waterproof cosmetics. The second contains herbal ingredients that remove standard cosmetics and also reduce skin irritation. There are oil-free makeup remover lotions for people who use contact lenses, and it wouldn’t be bad if, even after 25 years, they don’t use waterproof mascara when caring for the skin around their eyes.
Makeup should be removed with gentle movements without stretching the skin. Apply tampons soaked in milk for 50 seconds on closed eyes, then remove makeup using a top-to-bottom motion. After 25 years, when caring for the skin around the eyes, it is dangerous to use products that are designed to remove makeup from other areas of the skin, the spreading components of which can easily get into the eyes, causing irritation.
Hydration and nutrition
Lotions, gels and creams used to nourish and moisturize the skin should penetrate well into the inner layers of the skin without causing irritation to the skin of the eyelids.
Creams are the best option for caring for dry eyelid skin at home. By restoring the balance of lipids, creams help the skin cope with wrinkles and make its surface elastic and smooth. We do not recommend using creams with lanolin, which causes redness and inflammation of the skin. To prevent creams from causing irritation, they should be applied to the lower eyelids.
Lotions give elasticity and smoothness to the skin, eliminate wrinkles, because, having a lightweight composition, they are very quickly absorbed into the skin.
Gels are the most useful remedies, they are used for eye skin that is hypersensitive and prone to swelling. To avoid such troubles as allergies and conjunctivitis, it is necessary to change eye skin care products every four months. Thanks to the variety of products, it is easy to choose the most best option care for the skin around the eyes for all skin types.
When choosing creams based on your skin type, don’t forget to look at your age. After 45 years, skin care around the eyes is carried out with preparations that contain concentrated substances that renew collagen and elastin. By filling the cavities between collagen fibers, they help the skin regain its former elasticity.
The skin around the eyes after 30 years requires only fruit and plant extracts and vegetable oils. Therefore, choosing a product that slows down the appearance of facial wrinkles must be taken very seriously, since many of them have a positive effect only temporarily, and if you stop using them, the skin becomes even worse. Everything is explained very simply, the action of the cream is aimed at reducing muscle nutrition, weakened muscles are not able to maintain the elasticity of the skin, wrinkles appear, and the skin looks old. You can also take care of your skin after 30 years with the help of masks that smooth out wrinkles, remove pigmentation, and get rid of swelling.
Tips for correct application creams in the eye area that will prevent negative consequences:
- Rub the cream over massage lines with light circular movements. If there are circles around the eyes, gently tap with your fingertips. Local blood circulation is stimulated, promoting good absorption of the cream.
- Apply starting from the outer corner of the eye and ending at the inner corner.
To avoid stretching of the skin after 40 years, it is necessary to follow the rules for caring for the skin around the eyes.
Do not use regular day cream to care for the skin around your eyes; there is no guarantee that it will not cause irritation; as a rule, such creams are not tested by ophthalmologists. If you need to protect the skin around your eyes from ultraviolet exposure, you can use ordinary cosmetics for sun protection. Cosmetics should not irritate the skin around the eyes and be quite intense.

They are also the most expensive. They contain oleic, linoleic, and linolenic fatty acids.
Nutrition
For mature skin around the eyes, it is better to buy products that compensate for the deficiency of natural lipids, stimulate collagen production and fibroblast activity. Such cosmetics have a lifting effect. It can be recognized by its composition: natural oils(macadamia, shea, avocado, peanuts), biostimulants ( royal jelly bees, ginseng juice), phytoestrogens, squalene, lecithin. The composition of the age nourishing cream must include elastin and collagen.
By the way: apply the cream to the area around the eyes with medium and ring fingers hands using gentle circular and tapping movements. On the lower eyelids - in the direction from the temples to the nose, to improve microcirculation and lymph flow, to prevent the formation of swelling and bruises.
Makeup remover
Be sure to remove makeup from your eyes before going to bed. Special products are suitable - milk, cream, micellar solution. If you use waterproof mascara and eyeliner, purchase a special makeup remover, the so-called two-phase one.
The bottle clearly shows the boundary between top layer(oil) and lower (tonic). The result of this product is also double: waterproof paints are easily removed, and at the same time the skin around the eyes receives gentle care.Gymnastics
Try to do it regularly.
Press the outer edges of your eyebrows with the tips of your ring, middle, and index fingers and, overcoming their resistance, try to close your eyes tightly. Stay in this position for 5 seconds. Then release your eyebrows and relax. Repeat the exercise 2 times.
Sit down, place your elbows on the table, press the heels of your palms to the cheekbones under your eyes, gradually increase the pressure without moving the skin. Stay in this position for 10 seconds. Then gradually release the pressure and remove your palms.
Tricks that will make wrinkles around the eyes less noticeable.
Pay attention to your eyebrows. Bright, correct form, good contour - they will distract attention from the crow's feet near the eyes, visually lift the eyelids, and make the look more open.
Avoid pearlescent and bright shadows and lower eyeliner with a pencil - they make wrinkles visually more noticeable.If you wear glasses with positive diopters, do not overuse mascara and eyeliner pencils. All the lumps on the eyelashes, the fuzzy line that “stumbled” over a wrinkle, will increase in size, as if through a magnifying glass. And your makeup will look untidy. Instead of daily eyeliner, it is better to do permanent tattoo along the edge of the eyelid, and also paint your eyelashes with permanent paint in the salon.
For farsighted women, it is better to order glasses with slightly tinted lenses from an optician - they will create a slight darkening of the light and hide makeup errors and wrinkles near the eyes.
On a note
- If there are dark circles, use a cream for the skin around the eyes with a high content of vitamin C - it strengthens blood vessels well.
- If your eyelids are puffy, keep eye products in the refrigerator.
- If you notice bags under your eyes, sleep on a high headboard, do not apply fatty creams at night - limit yourself to gels.
- If you constantly squint from the sun, always wear dark glasses outside. They will protect you not only from infrared and ultraviolet radiation, but also from the appearance of wrinkles.
- If you sit at the computer for a long time, try to give yourself five minutes of rest - take your eyes off the screen. The fact is that when we look at the monitor, we blink 4 times less often than usual. This means that the eyeball is not hydrated enough. After some time, the whites of the eyes turn red, there is a feeling that sand has been poured into them, we begin to squint and rub them, stretching them delicate skin around and thereby causing the appearance of wrinkles.
The skin of the eyelids differs from the rest of the skin of the face and body not only in that it is much thinner. There is almost no muscle or subcutaneous fat underneath. It is most prone to stretching, and the fact that a person constantly blinks provokes the appearance of the first wrinkles around the eyes.
Don't neglect eyelid skin care; start it as early as possible. Follow a few basic rules: choose care products that are appropriate for your age, carry out procedures and apply very carefully, regularly moisturize and nourish the skin of the eyelids.
