Dry skin of the eyelids

The skin of the eyelids is four times thinner than on the wrist. There are few sebaceous glands in it and there is no fatty basis. In this case, around the eyes is half of the facial muscles. And some of them are reduced by 100 thousand times a day! It is not surprising that the eyes first give out the age. The nose can be managed! It is the features of the structure of the skin that allow the eyes to be called the mirror of the soul, so sensitively and clearly conveying all our emotions. But these same features and provoke the earlier withering of the skin. Because of the lack of a fatty base, it quickly becomes thinner and loses its elasticity. Due to the small amount of sebaceous glands, they stop retaining moisture and resist unfavorable effects of the environment, so dry skin of the eyelids is formed.

And if you add to this an almost continuous reduction in facial muscles, it becomes clear - without careful attitude and increased care, it is impossible to keep the youth of the eyes! As a gentle skin requires special procedures and special cosmetics.

Thin matter.

The first thing you need to provide the skin around your eyes is intense hydration. A dry skin of the eyes needs it especially. It is desirable that the hydrating property is not only a cream for the eyelids, but also a gel for make-up. By the way, to clean the dry skin around the eyes can only special cosmetics, which allows you to remove makeup and dust, without stretching the skin. It is best to use milk and wadded disks (not cotton wool - its villi can cause irritation, and the skin of the eyes is very tender). Moisten the milk with four discs. Two put not upper and lower eyelids under the eyelashes, two - on the upper, closing the eyes.

Wait two minutes until the shadows and mascara dissolve, and remove them, moving from top to bottom (without removing the discs under the eyes - they will prevent the cosmetics from getting on the skin). Remains of funds are removed with a cotton swab: on the upper eyelids - in the direction from the inner corners of the eyes to the outer eyelids, on the lower eyelids - in the opposite direction. In the same way, eyes and eyelids are also applied to caregivers and gels. Necessarily - light patting movements, so as not to damage the skin of the eyes. Having learned to look after the eyes without stretching the skin and pressing, you will detach the appearance of wrinkles.

If you are worried about swelling, sensitive dry eye skin, "heavy" eyelids or you wear lenses, buy gel-like remedies, women with dry skin will get creams. But in any case, cosmetics should not be much - for the eyes and eyelids, the excess of nutrients is especially dangerous. In addition, skin care products should contain sunscreen filters, a minimum of SPF15. The thin skin around the eyes is often incapable of independently resisting ultraviolet radiation.
