Eye Cream - EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW


Let's talk about eye cream! The latest research is showing that everyone AGE 20+ should be using an eye cream.  Have you ever wondered why is this product essential? Why can't I just use the regular cream that I use on other parts of my body? Well read on because I will answer everything you ever wanted to know about EYECREAM…..

#1 reason WHY you need Eye Cream 

The skin around your eye area is very thin so it doesn't contain as much ELASTIN (elastin helps skin to return to its original position when it is poked or pinched). It also does not contain as much FIBRILLIN (fibrillin is a glycoprotein, which is essential for the formation of elastic fibers found in connective tissue) Since the skin around the eye does not have as many of these goodies, it's more prone to stretching. When we're squinting, this pulls on the skin and can cause dreaded CROW'S FEET.  Because this skin is so unique, ie it’s thinner and lacks elastin/fibrillin it requires a cream specifically geared towards the eye area - make sense?



Now you need to know…

What am I looking for in an eye cream?

A) When you're looking for an eye cream, you're looking for something that contains OPTICAL DIFFUSERS. When the light hits the eye area, if your cream contains those optical diffusers, it will help to brighten and reflect the light, therefore brightening the under eye area. 

B) The other thing you're looking for is something with PEPTIDES. Peptides are a big buzz word right now, but basically peptides are fragments of proteins and proteins are building blocks of skin. Peptides helps stimulate the natural occurring substances in your skin such as collagen, elastin, fibrillin, this will help with skin cell turnover. Peptides help teach the skin to behave more youthfully, increasing skin cell turnover, which helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area. Reviving the aging skin. 

So now that we know why we need eye cream and what we are looking for the last piece of the puzzle is making sure we are applying it correctly….


HOW TO APPLY EYE CREAM

When you're applying an eye cream, it's really important that you do it correctly. 

Use your fourth finger (ring finger) because that finger has the lightest touch. You put a little bit of product on your finger and then you're going to go from the outside, tapping inwards toward the nose. You want apply approximately 1 inch away from your eye, because the eye cream will travel. If you put it too close to your eye, it could cause irritation to your eye or cause puffiness (we’re trying to avoid that and do the opposite!!) You want to go the whole way around the eye, following along the orbital bone. 


So that is it….

With consistent use of a good eye cream, your eye area WILL look younger! Do NOT forget it's also important to wear sunglasses and also a large brimmed hat when you're out in the sun, this will reduce squinting. By avoiding squinting you will help prevent wrinkles around your eyes.

If you would you like to try the #1 anti-aging eye cream in North America. This eye cream can be trialed risk free for 60 days.  If you aren’t 100% satisfied you can return the product and get your FULL money back. Let’s outsmart those crow’s feet!!!
