There’s a reason so many personal care and skincare products are focused on moisturizing, soothing, and treating our eyes. The eyes reflect when we’re joyous, upset, angry, and surprised. Since the thin skin surrounding them doesn’t produce oil like the rest of our face, the eye area is prone to reflect signs of aging before other parts of the face and neck.
Eyes are super responsive and as such respond to various environmental triggers and emotional stressors. The surrounding area is also packed with blood vessels that can create a dark circle appearance, making the eyes look tired and aged. Lines around the eyes, colloquially known as crow’s feet, are a normal part of aging. Many people quickly turn to surgical means, botox, or pricey light therapies. However, preventative measures that naturally mitigate early development of crow’s feet can be added to any skincare routine.
Creating and sticking to a skincare routine is one of the best practices for conditioning the under eye area and minimizing fine lines. Cleansing eye make up, pollutants, and grime from this thin, sensitive area primes the skin for receiving serums, boosters, and moisturizers - all essential in naturally reducing eye wrinkles, but more on that later. Incorporate these basic steps into a morning and evening skincare routine:
Depending on your skin type, opt for a hydrating cleansing milk like our Essential Milk. This gentle and effective cleanser washes away impurities without stripping the skin of its natural lubricating oils.
After a workout or for oily, acne-prone skin, select a foaming or gel cleanser like our Active Pureness Gel Cleanser. Natural, soothing ingredients work with Gluconolactone to penetrate deep into pores and remove excess sebum, preventing build up and breakouts.
Toners often receive bad reputations for stripping the skin of its natural lubrication. However, a consciously-designed toner that uses soothing, organic ingredientsactually promotes ahealthy skin barrier while removing excess dirtand grime. Tone with a prebiotic solution like our Remedy Toner to restore the skin’s healthy foundation and prep the entire face, including the eye area, for moisturizers.
Life can zap our skin of its natural moisture. So can make up, weather, stress, and indoor air conditioning. Our faces need a little help each day to restore their natural glow and elasticity. Carefully select a premium moisturizer like our Sublime Skin Cream that works with your skin type. Slowing down the formation of wrinkles starts with properly hydrated skin.
Aging is a natural part of life and signs of growing older are in fact badges that we’ve celebrated well and laughed often. However, reducing the appearance of under eye wrinkles can help shave a few years off of our appearances. Knowing what causes fine lines around the eyes can help us follow preventative measures. Here are some of the most common causes:
The sun’s UVA and UVB rays harm the skin in many ways but the most obvious sign of damage is in fine lines and wrinkles. Wear a face moisturizer with SPF during daily life and apply a non-toxic, reef safe SPF when playing outside in the sun. Additionally, a hat and sunglasses offer added protection against the sun’s harmful rays.
As we age, our collagen production severely drops. Collagen is what helps the skin retain elasticity.
Cold, dry climates steal the skin’s moisture and can cause it to work overtime trying to stay lubricated. Stressed out skin is prone to wrinkles and breakouts. Hot, humid climates are less jarring on the skin but still require larger amounts of water to keep the skin hydrated.
Our bodies and minds reset each night with a restful slumber. Scrimping on sleep or experiencing interrupted sleep patterns can disrupt the body’s natural rhythms, both mental and physical. A lack of sleep can lead to irritability, increased appetite, sugar cravings, and lowered energy levels. All of this is quickly reflected in the skin. What’s more,tired individuals are increasingly prone to dark circles.
