Look for These Ingredients

The following eye cream ingredients tend to be among the most effective:

* HYALURONIC ACID to plump and hydrate skin and lessen wrinkles.

* CAFFEINE to counter puffiness and under-eye circles by constricting blood vessels.

* CERAMIDES to smooth skin.

* VITAMINS A and C to improve collagen production.

The skin around your eyes is almost 10 times thinner than the rest of your face, so dermatologists recommend that you use eye cream as early as your 20s to prevent and protect your eyes from signs of aging such as crow’s feet and dark circles.

Why wrinkles?

Because this skin is so delicate, it’s more likely to lose collagen, which is responsible for keeping skin smooth, soft, and supple. And because your eyes are almost always moving— blinking, winking, and smiling—the sensitive skin around them is the first to form fine lines and wrinkles.
