The Importance of Eye Products and How to Use Them
It is well known in the world of beauty that skin care professionals consider eye products to be essential in their daily care routine, especially as you age. Although many people have heard this recommendation, few understand the reason behind it, which leads to incorrect use, buying the wrong products, or even not using the products at all.
The purpose of eye products is to strengthen, moisturize, and protect the delicate skin around our eyes. The skin in this area is thinner and more sensitive than the rest of the face. The eye area also retains and loses moisture in a different way, making it susceptible to signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and crow's feet. A good eye product also contains ingredients that reduce puffiness and dark circles, which are visible due to the thin skin in this area. Eye products contain special ingredients to treat this sensitive area without causing irritation.
Since prevention is easier than treatment, skin care experts recommend eye products for people in their twenties as well as those older.
Just like the skin in this area, the application method should be delicate and gentle. These products are powerful, so you only need a small amount to get the most benefit. To apply, place a small amount of product on your fourth finger. Tip: If the product is in a container, pat rather than wipe the product off the container. Gently patting the surface of the product will do the trick for the eyes. Using your fourth finger, pat around the underside of your eyes, taking care not to pull or stretch the skin. You should simply swipe the eye cream or gel gently and allow it to absorb naturally. Using too much product in the morning can make your makeup look messy, and using too much at night can seep into your eyes and cause irritation overnight.
Most eye products are not recommended for the eyelid glands. The heat in the eyelid can cause the product to seep into the eye, causing irritation. But PCA SKIN offers products that have been tested and recommended for effective use on the eyelid.
