With age comes wisdom, as they say. Unfortunately, age also brings with it undesirable changes to your appearance such as fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots. The thin, fragile skin around your eyes is often the first part of your face to show the tell-tale signs of aging. With the right skincare routine, however, you can maintain the youthful appearance of your eyes, so no one knows your true age but you.
In this article, we’ll explore the reasons why the skin around your eyes is so delicate and what you can do to protect it. We’ll also talk about lifestyle tips and Yon-Ka Paris products that can help you maintain youthful looking eyes for many years to come.
The skin around your eyes is known as the eye contour area. It is the circular area that reaches from the inner corner of your eye to the outer corner at the tip of your eyebrow. It also includes the circular area right below the eyebrow. Skin in the eye contour area is twice as thin as the skin on the rest of your face and it contains half as many sebaceous glands (and they are smaller in size). This means that the skin around your eyes is very fragile and much more sensitive to dryness. It is also the first part of your face to show the physical signs of aging.
Because the skin in the eye contour area is so fragile, you need to be careful with the products you use and how you use them. There are three primary things you can do to protect the skin around your eyes:
The sebaceous glands in your skin produce oil that protects the skin, but skin in the eye contour area contains half as many of these moisturizing glands. Apply an eye contour that moisturizes, while also appropriate for your contour needs in the morning and evening every day. In addition to choosing an appropriate contour product, make sure the other skin care products you use don’t contain harsh ingredients that might dry out your already-sensitive skin around the eyes. Finally, for an extra layer of protection, follow the American Academy of Dermatology’s recommendation of wearing SPF 30 or higher on your face daily.
Protecting your skin with a simply cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration routine is important to maintain its natural firmness and complexion, but sometimes you need a little extra help. Fortunately, Yon-Ka Paris offers a complete wardrobe of options when it comes to contour products designed specifically for the delicate skin around your eyes.
