Why is special eye care important?
The eye area requires special attention as it is one of the most sensitive areas of skin on the face. With a skin thickness of only about 0.05 mm, it is three to five times thinner than the rest of the face. The sensitive skin in this area has no sebaceous glands and hardly any subcutaneous fat, which means that dryness lines and loss of tension become particularly visible here. In addition, the constant movement caused by blinking and facial expressions means that so-called laugh lines can develop early.
High-quality eye care is therefore not just a luxury, but a useful intensive care product to smooth out wrinkles and promote a radiant, awake look.
Recommended active ingredients for effective eye care
To counteract premature skin aging in the eye area, eye care products should contain high-quality anti-aging ingredients:
- Hyaluronic acid: This should be present in high, medium and low molecular weight forms in order to store large amounts of moisture and stimulate the skin's own hyaluronic acid production.
- Regenerating ingredients: Vitamin C, argan oil, sea buckthorn oil and pomegranate extract promote collagen formation and improve skin elasticity.
- Caffeine: This promotes blood circulation, makes the skin appear rosier and has a decongestant effect against bags under the eyes.
- Squalane: As a natural component of the hydro-lipid film, it absorbs quickly and leaves a light, non-greasy feeling.
- Organic rose water: Has an antibacterial effect, reduces dark circles under the eyes and refines the skin's appearance.
Ingredients you should avoid
In the sensitive eye area, it is particularly important to use care products that are gentle on the skin and contain as many natural ingredients as possible. Avoid eye creams that contain the following additives:
- preservatives
- fragrances
- Skin-damaging emulsifiers
- alcohol
These can cause itching, redness or tears and should therefore be avoided.
Application tips for eye care
The correct application of your eye care is crucial for its effectiveness:
- Layering principle: Apply the eye serum after cleansing your face and applying day or night cream.
- Hygienic roller applicator: With this you can apply the myrto eye serum in the morning, evening and if necessary in between. This ensures a bright look and gently smoothed skin.
- Use gently: Avoid rubbing or massaging the sensitive area to avoid putting additional strain on the skin.
Differences between the myrto eye serums
The myrto eye serums offer different combinations of active ingredients that can be used alternately to enhance the effect:
- Magnolia eye serum is particularly suitable for dark circles and bags under the eyes thanks to the caffeine it contains. Vitamin C and magnolia bark lighten dark pigmentation and promote collagen production.
- Argan Eye Serum is specially formulated to revitalize and soothe the delicate eye area. It contains a powerful combination of antioxidant and nourishing ingredients that hydrate and strengthen the skin without weighing it down
7 tips for optimal care of the eye area
- Deeply effective moisture: Use eye creams with moisturizing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or aloe vera.
- Nutrient-rich diet: A balanced diet with lots of fruit and vegetables, but little sugar, is important for skin health.
- Drink enough: Make sure you drink 2 to 3 liters of water or unsweetened tea per day.
- Relaxation breaks: Give your body enough sleep and regular rest periods to avoid stress and tired eyes.
- Sun protection: Protect your eye area from UV rays with sunglasses.
