What is the right eye contour for me? Here are the recommendations you need

What is the right eye contour for me? Here are the recommendations you need

Maria Teresa Moneo

Finding the right eye contour is no easy task, so today we will tell you what to consider when looking for it and we will recommend some of them. Say goodbye to doubts.

What it is and what it does

The eye contour area, also known more technically as the periocular area, is a thinner, more delicate and sensitive skin because it contains practically no hair follicles, sebaceous glands or adipose tissue as the rest, and if we add to all this the passage of time plus the daily habits to which it is exposed, for example, gesturing continuously, how we sleep, if we do not rest properly and the external factors to which we are exposed, among others.... is the mere reason why it is considered the first area to suffer the first signs of aging.

Using an eye contour is essential as they contain specific formulations to help this area of the skin so different from the rest, to slow down and delay the aging process by providing the skin with what it needs to combat bags, dark circles, first expression lines and wrinkles, and in advanced cases the lack of firmness of the upper eyelid.

The eyes say a lot about us, so it is important to take care of them and the key is to know how to choose the right eye contour for every need or necessity.'

How to choose the right eye contour?

First of all, it is important that you analyze what is worrying you about your eye area, what does your eyes need, does the area feel dehydrated, is it dull, haggard or puffy, are you worried about fine lines and wrinkles, or is it a combination of all of them? Or is it a combination of everything?

The key comes now, once you know what really worries you, let's look for the solution in an eye contour based on a formulation that incorporates above all ingredients that provide the right benefits based on our needs, specific, gentle and effective formulations, which are respectful with the skin, full of repairing ingredients, antioxidants, vitamins, intercellular communicators, omegas, etc...

One recommendation is to avoid formulas containing ingredients such as fragrant plant oils or synthetic fragrances that can cause inflammation or irritation, as these ingredients are not beneficial and are not very tolerant, especially for this thin, delicate and sensitive skin area.

 We name the most demanded needs:

Dehydration

It is one of the most basic needs, if we do not hydrate the area with eye contours based on moisturizing and repairing ingredients, such as Hyaluronic Acid, we must help to restore the area the hydration and elasticity it needs.

Dryness

The contour area lacks sebaceous glands, so when the area feels really dry, we must incorporate ingredients such as lipids and omegas to provide the nourishment it needs.

Bags

When we have this concern we refer to edematous bags (those of liquid and not fat) these are due to the accumulation of liquids, here we need soothing and decongestant ingredients. The result of fat bags that accumulate in the lower part is a symbol of skin aging and there are no cosmetic products that can treat them.

Dark circles

If we suffer from purplish or greenish dark circles under the eyes, it comes from poor circulation and lack of rest. Vitamins and caffeine are perfect ingredients to reduce the appearance of broken vessels and accelerate circulation. For brown pigmented dark circles, brightening agents and antioxidants such as Vitamin C and E, Niacinamide are perfect to brighten and even the tone.

Lines of expression, wrinkles or lack of firmness

Here we need more complete and advanced formulas that incorporate firming Peptides, Tightening and Brightening Agents, without forgetting inter-cellular communicators to activate skin cell renewal.

Sensitive or reactive contour area

In these cases we must provide comfort above all immediately, to avoid tightness and sensitivity or redness, and not only in the contour but also in eyelids prone to dermatitis or itching, we must nourish, protect and soothe with soothing, moisturizing and anti-inflammatory ingredients.

We recommend eye contours based on the following needs

For us it is very important to take care of the eyes, and for this reason our mission is to offer eye contours based on formulas loaded with specific active ingredients that are respectful of the skin and highly effective, safe and stable.
