Contour of the eye, fragile attention!

On the one hand, the skin of the eye contour is thinner (about 1/3 compared to the rest of the face), poor in sebaceous glands and virtually devoid of protective hydrolipidic film . This makes her very vulnerable to external aggressions , dryness and the first signs of age. The dermis is also very fine with elastin and collagen fibers which form a less dense network.

Why use a specific care for the eye area?

Lack of sleep and the consumption of alcohol can cause such disturbances, which result in swelling. In order to get rid of substances which can not be assimilated, the arteries dilate. The skin around the eye is very fine, so that the arteries become visible , forming purple shadows.

Can a cream for the eye contour eliminate these phenomena?

When should we start using a cream for the eye area?
