Beauty Tips The eyes have it. How to take the best care of your eyes....Do you suffer from tired eyes, dark circles or wrinkles around your eye area?
In this edition we look at how to best care for your eye area. Why you get dark circles and wrinkles, how best to prevent them and how to treat them.
The area around the eyes is where your skin is at its thinnest and most delicate. Add to that the fact that you have no oil producing glands around your eyes and you can see why it’s the first place you start to notice those fine lines and wrinkles. That dreaded tired look comes from the breakdown of collagen and elastin and skin irritations from the sun, wind, allergies and even airline travel. And while makeup can help disguise the problem, it’s your underlying skincare routine that can make the difference.
Here are some simple steps and guidelines to follow, to have healthier skin around your eyes.
* To reduce the dark circles around your eyes, no matter at what age you are, get at least seven to eight hours sleep every night. Sleeping with your head slightly elevated would help you working against gravity; which causes fluid to collect in your lower eyelids resulting in dark circles.
* Use an eye cream around the eyes to keep moisture in the skin. Try Astrali Creme Douceur - which treats fine lines, wrinkles, under-eye circles and bags.
* When applying cream or make up around the eyes use the ring finger (as it exerts less pressure).
* Don't rub eyes frequently as this can cause an eye infection and in turn causing infection in the skin around eyes. This is because; few of us bother to wash our hands before touching our eyes.
* Always wear sunglasses when outdoors. Sunglasses will not only protect your eye area from the sun's damaging rays, but they will also stop you squinting into the sun - another known cause of eye wrinkles.
