To apply eye cream correctly, follow these steps:
-
Preparation:
- Wash your face with warm water and a gentle cleanser to help your skin absorb the cream better.
- Pat your face dry with a clean, soft towel.
-
Scoop and apply:
- Scoop up a pea-sized amount of eye cream using your ring finger.
- Start at the innermost corner of your under-eye area and apply small dots in a semi-circle up to your brow bone.
- Avoid applying the cream too close to your bottom eyelashes, as it will naturally spread there when you open your eyes.
- Use your ring finger to gently tap the cream into your skin, following the semi-circle pattern.
- Be sure not to pull or stretch the skin while applying the cream.
-
Absorption and finishing touches:
- Wait for 2 minutes to let the cream fully absorb into your skin.
- Apply the rest of your skincare products and makeup.
- If youre using an eye serum, apply it in the same way as the eye cream, using your ring finger and a slightly thicker layer for deeper penetration.
Some additional tips for applying eye cream:
- Use a lightweight formula in the morning, as it will feel more comfortable under your makeup.
- Look for a product with SPF to reduce the risk of wrinkles.
- Apply a thicker layer of eye serum for deeper penetration into the skin.
- Be gentle when using eye cream, as the skin around the eyes is delicate.
- Avoid getting too close to your eye to prevent irritation and discomfort.
- Apply eye cream at least 15 minutes before bedtime to allow it to fully absorb into your skin.
