Eye Gel

Eye Gel - a cosmetic product of light consistency, containing a maximum of nutrients for the care of the eyelids. Thanks to this composition, the skin around the eyes is able to maintain youth and freshness for many years.

Both products, cream and gel, give the desired effect of moisturizing and nourishing the skin. There are several differences between them. Increased nutritional value is important for the cream, as it is enriched with vitamins and fatty acids.. The main function of the composition is to supply the skin with everything necessary for rejuvenation, restoring skin elasticity. Creams do not leave sticky residue, they have a light texture. Creams are intended mainly for night care.

Gels are needed for those women over thirty whose skin on the eyelids is not swollen and dry, it needs increased hydration. The gel product has a delicate texture, is quickly absorbed, leaving a feeling of comfort. Apply it both at night and during the day before applying makeup. For older women, a complex combination of two types is necessary, since the skin around the eyes needs treatment and restoration.

Unlike the rest of the face, the skin of the eyelids is not protective. She is the softest and most delicate.Mimic processes are reflected, first of all, on the skin around the eyes, which is actively involved in them, causing stretching and sagging.

For proper care, experts have developed a composition of gels with a high content of nutrients. The composition of a high-quality gel for the skin around the eyes includes:

1. Vitamins A, E and ascorbic acid. Allows you to protect the skin in the cold season from external influences, tighten and improve the cleansing of dead cells.
2. Amino acids and retinol. These beneficial substances are necessary to accelerate the synthesis of collagen in case of premature skin aging.
3. Caffeine. It has the ability to remove edema and swelling, tone up and improve blood circulation in tissues. Gels with this component are especially highly valued and considered effective.
4. Linoleic and linolenic acid. They protect and prevent the rapid removal of moisture, providing your skin with intense hydration.
5. Rosehip seed extracts, as well as other plants and algae. Provide nourishment for aging skin of the eyelids, additionally softening and smoothing it.

Care for the area around the eyes begins after 25 years. For the first age group, cosmetics are produced marked “anti age”, these are ladies after thirty-five to forty years. The second group of women, over 45 years of age, use cosmetic care products with the “tretinoin” designation on the packaging. These are universal creams and gels that are designed specifically for middle-aged and older women. They not only moisturize, but also create a protective film necessary for aging skin, which tends to become thinner over time.

Complement the multicomponent composition of collagen fibers and antioxidants, retinol.

Eye gels are divided according to their main purpose. Specially designed formula helps get rid of:

The gel, intended for the skin around the eyes, is applied to the eyelids with light patting movements. Do not rub the product into the skin, as you can stretch the thin dermis in this area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe face. For effective application, take a small portion, the size of a pea, on the fourth or fifth finger of the hand. Then spread the gel evenly over the entire eye cavity, leaving dotted strokes on the upper and lower eyelids. At the same time, part of the moving eyelid is not affected when caring for the eyes, since exposure to it causes tears.
