What is Eye Care Beauty?
Under-eye skin is very thin, especially when compared to skin on other parts of the body. This quality sometimes allows the veins and fluid beneath the skin under the eyes to show through. Although the dark under-eye circles many experience are often blamed on lack of sleep, it’s actually the act of sleeping itself that may cause or exacerbate the issue: Lying down for hours at a time allows fluid to gather under the eyes, resulting in a dark or shadowy appearance.**
Circles under the eyes may also result from inflamed blood vessels, seasonal allergies, sinus issues, and the common cold. Exposure to the environment may also irritate sensitive skin around the eye, leading to puffiness, irritation, and bagging. When eye skin is exposed to UV rays, toxins such as air pollution or tobacco smoke, drying winds, and heat and humidity, the natural cellular aging process may be accelerated, leading to fine lines and wrinkles.**
Eye creams are popular beauty products for addressing these skin issues that are unique to the eyes. However, as the effects of toxins found in non-natural beauty products are increasingly brought to light, more consumers are turning to natural eye creams for wholesome eye care beauty without potential chemical risks. Sourced from botanical ingredients, these natural creams help to firm, hydrate and soothe the delicate skin found under the eyes.**
Many natural eye creams supply aloe vera, which stimulates under-eye circulation to help with fluid build-up and minimize the appearance of dark circles. Studies have linked aloe vera’s skin-supportive benefits to its 70+ bioactive substances, including potent antioxidants. Together, these phytochemicals help soothe and tighten skin, and help protect against free radical-induced damage. All of these biological activities appear to hold special promise for nourishing and supporting the sensitive skin around the eyes. Natural eye creams may supply additional antioxidants, such as vitamin E, vitamin A and green tea extract, which have been found to fight the effects of aging while supporting youthful appearance around the eyes.**
Eye creams may also supply natural humectants and emollients like shea, coconut, almond, and avocado butters and oils. These ingredients help to hydrate the area around the eyes, sealing in moisture while conditioning the skin. Creams with collagen and herbals such as kelp, calendula, chamomile, cucumber, and oat and wheat protein help to firm the skin, promoting elasticity and suppleness while plumping away fine lines and wrinkles.**
