Most of us do not know that the skin begins to age after 40-45 years old. It's hard to believe, right? At the present time, the first wrinkles in many women appear much earlier - after 25 years. The causes of early appearance of wrinkles and aging of the skin around the eyes are large. The main cause is poor ecology and food stuffs filled with dyes and preservatives.
Earlier, the appearance of wrinkles is not a reason to despair, because they can be combated and even necessary. But it is better to prevent the appearance of wrinkles, of course - to make masks for the eyelids, to watch for food, to eat enough vegetables, berries and fruits, which contain vitamins C, A and E that are useful for eyes. Reduce the consumption of salty foods to a minimum, otherwise the eyes will swell.
Thoroughly pick up your cosmetics. Use those creams that suit you by age. The cream should be applied in a thin layer, it is recommended to start from the inner corner of the upper eyelid to the outer one, and not move along the lower eyelid from the outer corner to the inner corner. The skin should be touched very carefully, without stretching it. To remove eye makeup is recommended to use special means.
The main means for eye care are masks, which must be done in a week 1-2 times necessarily. For women over 30, it will be useful to add a light massage to the masks. Similar masks are different. Masks for the eyes are for removing redness, from "crow's feet", from puffiness. We will not cite all the existing ones, we give only the recipes of masks for eyelids from wrinkles.
