Maintaining the moisture balance of your skin is one of the most important points in achieving a healthy skin. The eye area needs a more careful care routine, as it shows earlier lines, puffiness, dark circles and signs of aging than other parts of the skin. Read on for tips on how to keep your eye area, which is thinner than other layers of your skin, more moist.
1 – Drink plenty of water
It is always important to nourish your body with adequate fluid intake. Water consumption, which is as effective as the creams and serums you apply to your skin, allows you to moisturize your skin from within. Thus, the treatments you will apply on it will be more effective. Make sure to drink at least two liters of water a day.
2 – Pay attention to factors that dry your skin
Sun, caffeine and water are some of the factors that cause dehydration in your body. Therefore, applying sunscreen every day, consuming plenty of water and limiting your coffee consumption (albeit difficult) will help you maintain the general moisture balance of your skin.
3 – don’t skip sunscreen
As mentioned in the previous article, sunscreen not only protects your skin from the harmful rays of the sun, but also creates an effective barrier against skin cancer. However, the use of sunscreen is often avoided. Especially around the eyes, many of us did not apply sunscreen. You can use sunscreens specially developed for the eye area or apply your own sunscreen in a thin layer, taking care not to get it in your eyes. Do not forget to refresh it during the day to get the maximum effect.
4 – Pay attention to the ingredients of the products you use
Don’t forget to use a serum or eye cream for your eye area care. While serums are generally preferred by oily skins, creams with more dense texture are preferred more to prevent dry skin and signs of aging. Make sure that the product you will use contains intensely moisturizing ingredients such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid.
