Natural Eye Cream Will Have Your Eyes Looking Their Best Without Any Harsh Chemicals
A good natural eye cream can mean the difference between tired dull looking eyes and younger, smooth, rejuvenated eyes.
The skin around our eyes is the thinnest and most delicate on our
face. Not only that, this tissue has far fewer oil glands than the rest
of our bodies so it really does require we give it a little extra
attention.
Using a natural eye cream as well as your usual natural
moisturizer will give your eyes the best chance against wrinkles,
keeping the skin around your eyes smooth and rejuvenated.

slows as we age, you need to look for ingredients that are rich

Here are a few helpful tips on how to to keep the skin around your eyes as healthy, nourished and smooth as possible..
- How you clean around your eyes believe it or not can have a
huge bearing on the amount of wrinkles you will get. If you are
scrubbing your face with harsh soaps or a rough wash cloth you are doing
permanent damage to this delicate skin. Over time removing moisture
with cleansers and pulling and tugging on your eyes causes sagging and
wrinkles. When removing makeup always use a natural moisturizing makeup
remover and use cotton balls. Cotton balls reduce the tugging on your
skin.
- Alpha hydroxy acids naturally derived from milk and
fruits are ideal for cleansing around the eyes. They very gently
exfoliate dead skin cells allowing nutrients to better penetrate your
skin. As an added bonus alpha hydroxy acids moisturize as the same time.
- Wear an eye cream that offers excellent barrier repair.
- Be sure your eye cream has a very rich emollient in it like shea or mango butter.
This keeps your eyes hydrated. The more hydrated your skin is the less
visible wrinkles are and the less likely you are to create more.
- Wearing sunglasses protects the skin around your eyes and decreases wrinkles caused from squinting.
