Smooth Wrinkles Around Your Eyes

Some may think that if a person starts using an anti-aging product to smooth the wrinkles around their eyes, their skin will develop wrinkles more quickly and they will be dependent on the product. This is actually far from the truth. This is like saying not to drink too much water or you will become dependent on it.

The problem is that the skin around the eye area is very delicate. Consequently, it is the first place where wrinkles set in, and the place where wrinkles tend to be the deepest. You can blame it on genetics, sun-exposure, or having that great ability to “smile with your eyes.” Regardless of how those wrinkles got there (or soon will get there) you need to do something about it or you will definitely look like you’ve neglected that part of your face.

You cannot apply regular moisturizers around the eye because the skin is too thin. Remember that the only products you should use around the eye area are ones that specify they are safe for that purpose. If the product doesn't say it, don't use it there! If you do, you will find that your eyes will sting and burn and the skin will be irritated.

So, the big question that needs to be answered is this: “When should you start giving extra care to the skin around your eyes?” The answer is that most people would benefit from using an anti-aging product for the eye area as early as their twenties to prevent wrinkles. If you can prevent those eye wrinkles from forming deeply, then you will be ahead of the anti-aging game. If you are older than that, the second answer to the big question is “Now!”

Most eye creams found on the market are anti-aging and are usually more expensive. If you are younger and just want a moisturizer that is safe for the eye area, there are some gels and other eye creams that are less expensive and will provide this benefit for you. If you suffer from eye puffiness, look for products that contain cucumber extract (yes, it really does work!)

While you're already concerned for your skin's appearance, be sure to use a good skin care program designed for your skin type. Remember, adding an anti-aging eye product to your skin care program sooner, rather than later, will help prevent severe wrinkles and keep your skin looking young.
