Girls who love beauty always invest a lot of time and money in their faces, from facial cleaning, cosmetic water, facial essence, facial oil, facial cream, eye cream… All kinds of bottles and cans are filled with cosmetic tables.
However, while smearing these products on my face, there will also be some questions: Can this really help me improve various skin problems? Can you delay aging and keep your skin young?
Today, Dr. Clove invited professionals to elaborate on this issue.
Can eye cream go to pouch and dark circles?
There are many reasons for the formation of pouches and dark circles under the eyes, not all of which can be improved by eye cream.
Bags under the eyes may be caused by body aging, such as flabby eyelid skin, flabby muscles around the eyes, bulging eye socket fat and downward movement of cheek tissue, etc. These conditions are basically ineffective with eye cream and can only be improved by surgery.
Some eye bags are temporary and may only be caused by edema under the eyes, such as nose allergy or lack of sleep. At this time, some eye cream aimed at ingredients may be used to improve to some extent.
For dark circles under the eyes, if it is caused by poor circulation or pigmentation, it can be improved by using some eye cream, such as:
-
Caffeine in eye cream can strengthen metabolism and improve microcirculation.
-
Whitening and organic acid components can improve pigmentation;
-
Glycyrrhiza uralensis extract or vitamin E can reduce skin inflammation and melanin precipitation caused by inflammation.
Is eye cream useful for wrinkles?
Many people use eye cream to worry about the age of wrinkles around their eyes. After all, wrinkles are the appearance changes that are most likely to make people feel aging.
The causes of wrinkles are also complicated. If you want to solve the problem by applying eye cream, you must suit the remedy to the case.
Generally speaking, the formation of wrinkles mainly has the following reasons:
1. Water Loss
It is possible that the barrier function is weakened due to insufficient secretion of skin lipid, resulting in water loss in skin.
Therefore, it is difficult for the skin to maintain normal moisture, and fine wrinkles gradually appear on the skin.
2. Loss of collagen and fracture of elastic fibers
This is one of the important reasons for the decline of skin elasticity and toughness and the formation of wrinkles. The atrophy of adipose tissue in subcutaneous tissue also causes wrinkles.
Some studies have shown that wrinkles in the elderly may be partly caused by the reduction of subcutaneous fat.
3. Insufficient skin renewal ability
The adhesion between epidermis and dermis decreases, and obvious wrinkles and skin sagging will also form.
4. Dynamic expression lines
Not only wrinkles around the eyes, but also wrinkles around the head, facial lines, lip lines and even wrinkles at the joints will appear with facial expressions, movements or limb movements.
As the skin ages, these dynamic lines will become more and more obvious.
As can be seen from the causes of wrinkles, the effect of eye cream on improving existing wrinkles is actually quite limited.
Generally speaking, eye cream can only relieve superficial wrinkles and wrinkles caused by dry skin.
If you want to improve these conditions, when choosing eye cream, you can pay attention to the following ingredients:
- Vitamin A derivatives: Vitamin A alcohol Retinol, Vitamin A propionate, Vitamin A palmitate); Glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, dl-Mandelic acid; Peptide-acid complex, Papaya enzyme, Bromelain, etc.
These are commonly used to improve superficial wrinkles on the skin, improve pigmentation on the skin, and make the epidermis smooth and delicate.
Some studies have also shown that these ingredients have some effect on skin renewal and may promote collagen proliferation because they can accelerate skin metabolism.
As for wrinkles caused by collagen loss, elastic fiber breakage and insufficient skin renewal ability, the main reason is physiological aging, which can only be improved by medical cosmetology or surgery at present.
There is no problem around the eyes, but also need to apply eye cream?
The main function of applying eye cream is to keep moisture well, thus improving superficial wrinkles or water loss, strengthening metabolic effect, and also improving dark circles, color precipitation and wrinkle removal.
There is no problem around the eyes, of course it can also be used.
But can eye cream, as a product, be fine enough to target the differences between eyes and face?
Personally, I have reservations.
Can I apply cream to my eyes?
Of course, basically, facial products and eye products are matched in a similar way, except for differences in skin feeling.
After all, the skin around the eyes has different skin sensation from other skin parts, and some people may still be used to using eye cream products separately.
For example, after some eye creams are used, they will make the parts around the eyes have obvious lifting feeling, or use ingredients with optical effects to make wrinkles around the eyes disappear temporarily, etc.
If you feel comfortable to use, then there is no problem.
Do you need eye cream after you are 25?
How old did you start using eye cream?
In fact, there is no standard answer. There is an advertisement saying that “maintenance is done early and there is no worry when you get old”. Perhaps!
How to apply eye cream long [fat particles]?
Basically, science is still unable to confirm whether there is an absolute relationship between the two.
Some theories believe that the growth of fat particles is due to too much nutrition in eye cream, which also seems to lack rigour.
After all, if fat particles occur due to too much nutrition, then the skin may also have other symptoms.
On the other hand, if fat particles are really grown because of too much nutrition, then this situation should be concentrated on a certain product, but the current case is not so exact.
My suggestion is, if there is such a problem, please find a professional dermatologist to do a detailed examination, after all, fat particles are also difficult to eliminate using skin care products.
