How Do I Pick The Right Professional Eye Creme For Me? By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005

The best way to pick the right eye cream is to ask yourself, “What do I want to achieve with it?” Do you want to minimize dark circles? Puffiness? Do you want to prevent future damage or fight the wrinkles you have?

You must also consider your skin type. If the skin beneath your eyes is oily, puffy or you are acne-prone, you will want a gel. A cream will just be too rich.

Although there are no hard and fast rules about eye cremes, it’s safe to say there are three basic types for you to consider:

Day cremes-These enhance the appearance of your eyes by de-puffing and reducing the dark circles.

Night Cremes-These help the skin repair and prevent damage while you are sleeping. Night cremes often contain retinol or AHA’s (alpha hydroxy acids), which work best at night during the skin renewal process.

Standard Eye Creme-These are very emollient, providing needed moisture. They do not contain intense wrinkle fighting ingredients or de-puffing agents.

All eye cremes must provide some degree of moisture. They should be very mild since this area is so sensitive to irritation and contain no fragrance.

Just remember, any given brand can have at least two types of eye cremes and as many as six! That’s why it’s important to discuss with us your particular concerns and needs.

Do Your Eyes Betray Your Age

It’s a common notion that eye crèmes aren’t necessary. The skin regimen we do on our face is enough to include the skin around the eyes. Unfortunately, this belief is 100% wrong.

It does make sense that the skin on our face would have the same depth as the skin around our eyes. But that is not the case.

Of all the skin on your body, the thinnest part is the around your eyes. This is why your facial moisturizer stings or burns if you apply it to close to your eyes.

You should use eye crèmes that are tested and approved by ophthalmologists. Just like facial moisturizers, eye crèmes were created to tackle specific problems like:

• Dark circles
• Puffiness
• Fine lines and wrinkles

There is also another way to get younger looking eyes. Professional eye treatments!

Think of them as a facial just for your eyes! Using a patented dermal delivery system, nutrients essential to your eyes melt into this sensitive area, deeply hydrating and nourishing them without irritation.

Just like a facial your eye treatments provide a considerable boost to your at-home eye care.

Applying Eye Cremes

The skin around the eyes is thin and too sensitive. Facial moisturizers and anti aging facial crèmes should not be used for that area.

This is why eye crèmes were created. These are formulated to work with the delicate eye area.

When it comes to wrinkles and crows feet, anti-aging eye cremes help to produce a lifting effect with your eyes by generating collagen and new skin cell growth to help heal the wrinkle.

In preventing wrinkles and crows feet, there is a proper way of putting on eye crèmes. It’s best to pat the product around the eye to avoid tugging or pulling at the skin.

Anti-aging eye cremes, just like anti-aging facial cremes, are most effective when applied before bedtime. This is when the skin goes through its renewal process. That means the anti-aging ingredients can work far more effectively than during busy daytime hours.

The key is to make sure the eye area has enough moisture as well as the anti-aging properties to effectively do its job. Make sure you are using professional eye creams that apply to your skin type. We can help you there. Not only are our ingredients are more pure, we can find the corresponding product that’s just right for you. That means faster and better results!

Do Eye Cremes Really Work? By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005

With more and more products available in the market today, it’s easier to get confused about which one to use.

Unfortunately, some manufacturers do sell items that are not quite effective. And this leads people to believe that skincare products are just a scam, especially eye crèmes.

The skin around the eye area greatly differs from the skin on the rest of your body. It is the thinnest and the most delicate. It is far more sensitive to pollutants, sun damage and allergens than the rest of your body.

One way to tell if a person’s skin has been damaged by the sun is that the skin around their eyes is extremely wrinkly and saggy.

That’s why taking care of this area requires more than just moisturizers. Eye cremes are essentially modified moisturizers, and for a very good reason. Because this area does not produce any oil, eye cremes have special emollients that are different from facial moisturizers.

These emollients soothe the area and have fewer additives than facial moisturizers. Eye cremes have also been formulated, tested and approved by ophthalmologists to be safe to use around your eyes.

Facial moisturizers do not have that stamp of approval. You may have noticed reputable facial moisturizers with warnings not to apply it close to the eyes.

Yes, eye crèmes do work. It’s just a matter of knowing which one works best for you.

Why Can’t I Use My Facial Moisturizer Around My Eyes? By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005

It would seem only logical to use just your facial moisturiser, doesn’t it? But as we discussed last time, this area has the thinnest skin on the body and is also the most sensitive.

If you’ve ever experienced stinging, burning, or watery eyes after applying a facial moisturizer around your eye area, then you already know what we’re talking about. It’s just too irritating!

Only ophthalmologists tested and approved eye cremes should be applied to this delicate area. Just like facial moisturizers, eye cremes were created to tackle specific problems like dark circles, puffiness and to reduce fine eye lines and wrinkles.

But there is another reason to steer clear of heavy facial moisturizers. Have you ever experienced little bumps around your eyes? These are called milia, skin cells that are trapped in small pockets near the surface of the skin.

This happens because the eye area has very few oil glands. If your facial products are too rich, they can greatly contribute to this nasty little problem. Very hard and seed-like, milia are also very difficult to remove.

That’s why using products especially formulated for this sensitive area just makes sense. It’s the key to preventing this unsightly problem.

Got questions? We’re happy to answer them.
