Reduce Under Eye Dark Circles With These 3 Steps

Believe it or not, but if you are in your late twenties, the fear of getting wrinkles and under-eye bags starts to kick in. Well, we are not saying that it happens with everyone, but for many, crow feet and fine lines start to set in at an early age. Therefore, sooner you customise your skincare as per your needs is better. When it comes to the under-eye area, we all know that it’s delicate and requires special care.

Crow feet, fine lines and wrinkles, once set in, never ditch! And if you have an expressive face, you’ll see these lines accompanying you whenever you smile or frown. While we are not asking you to lose your sleep for it (as it will make things worse), make sure you follow a simple eye-care routine and include products with specific ingredients.

1. Buy Eye-care Products with Retinol

Retinol is one buzz word in the skincare industry right now. A derivative of vitamin A, it boosts collagen production and stimulates the metabolism of skin cells resulting in smoother under-eye skin. Product with retinol gets absorbed in the skin and can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, giving an even-toned complexion. However, it’s a strong ingredient and can irritate the delicate skin around the eyes. Use it thrice a week to get most of its benefits.

2. Keep Under-eye Area Moisturised

If you are using an eye cream regularly, you’re halfway there in combating under-eye woes. However, an eye cream alone isn’t enough for moisturisation. Therefore, always use it after applying a hydrating moisturiser. Also, while buying an eye cream, check that apart from retinol, it should also have hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and C in it. These ingredients are known to give extra hydration to the delicate skin.

3. Seal the Hydration with Oil

When it comes to preventing wrinkles and fine lines, hydration should be your mantra. It is because dry and dehydrated skin is more prone to wrinkles and fine lines. Even if you think you are hydrating your eye area enough, there’s always room for some oil. Sealing moisturisation with oil can be beneficial for your under-eye skin. Argan and sunflower oil can be your go-to products as these can keep wrinkles from worsening. Oils help in locking the moisture by preventing water from evaporating.

Hope these tips will help you!
