One of the first things someone notices about you is your eyes. It's a point of connection and emotion.
The skin around your eyes is some of the most sensitive and delicate skin on your entire body, so you don't want to use just any old random products for your eyes.
So let's go over the hows and whys of three different (but amazing) types of eye creams to keep the focus and attention on your eyes.
What Does Eye Cream Do?
Eye creams are specially formulated to target the specific issues and foibles that affect the skin around your eyes. Some of these issues include:
- Dark Circles: Caused by a variety of factors including genetics, lack of sleep, and aging, dark circles can make you look exhausted or older than you are.
- Puffiness: Fluid retention, lack of sleep (again), and poor circulation can lead to puffiness, obscuring the natural perky attention-grabbing properties of your eyes.
- Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The skin around your eyes is extremely thin and delicate, making it especially prone to fine lines, crow's feet, and wrinkles.
- Dryness: Not only fragile, the skin around your eyes also lacks oil glands, making it more susceptible to dryness and irritation.
Do Eye Creams Work?
Yes! But like all skincare and health products, your life choices can maximize (or minimize) the effectiveness of eye creams, which rely on their specific ingredients. And while
It's also important to manage expectations. Understand that even though eye creams can help improve the appearance of the skin around your eyes, even the best under-eye cream may not be able to completely eliminate all signs of aging or fatigue. At Eight Saints we use natural ingredients to create a terrific trio of under-eye skincare products you'll want to stay consistent with.
- All In Eye Cream - best for depuffing and reducing dark circles and bags
- Light Show Brightening Eye Gel - best for brightening and reversing signs of fatigue
- Wonder-Fill Plumping Eye Cream - best for plumping and filling in fine lines
Applying Yourself
If you are wondering how to apply eye cream products, a little goes a long way. Day or night, all three amazing eye products on our list only need a light touch. To apply, lightly dab the product around your eye area until it is fully absorbed.
It's All In The Eyes
The eyes are unfortunately often the first area to show signs of aging. If you've been struggling with puffy and baggy-looking eyes morning and night, our All In Eye Cream is the De-puffing under-eye experience you've been dreaming about.
This multi-faceted natural and organic eye cream is amazing at bringing your puffiness down to earth and losing any unnecessary and unwanted baggage.
Enriched with antioxidants and nourishing ingredients, this soothing eye cream is designed to combat puffy inflammation, minimize wrinkles, and nurture skin health. Featuring all Eight Saints of natural ingredients our All In Eye Cream is packed with active ingredients that target puffiness and promote a refreshed appearance. Some of those key ingredients synergistically working together to reduce puffiness and promote a refreshed complexion include:
- Green Tea Caffeine: Reduces puffiness around the eyes by constricting blood vessels and reducing inflammation. It also provides antioxidant protection to your delicate skin, rejuvenating and refreshing.
- Cocoa Butter: This natural ingredient creates a protective barrier, locking in moisture and shielding your sensitive skin from pollutants.
- Cucumber Hydrosol: Extracted through steam distillation, this cucumber-scented hydrosol provides a soothing, cooling effect. It helps reduce puffiness and promotes a revitalized complexion.
Keeping It Light
If you're finding the area around your eyes isn't as bright as it used to be we've got a fabulous fix for that too. Our Light Show Brightening Eye Gel is the antidote to dark circles and signs of fatigue that appear around the eyes.
We know not everyone loves the feeling of eye cream, so if you prefer the lighter-weight cooling sensation of gel products, our Light Show Brightening Eye Gel is the power move for you.
This under-eye gel restores, brightens, and lights up your eyes with superstar ingredients such as:
- Pomegranate Extract: Pomegranate is rich in antioxidants, including vitamin C, which can help brighten your skin and protect against damaging free radicals that can compound dark circles and other signs of aging.
- Peptides: Peptides are chains of amino acids that form proteins, including collagen. By promoting collagen production, peptides can help improve your skin's texture and reduce the appearance of dark circles.
- MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane): MSM is an organic sulfur compound that is found in plants and animals. It is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and ability to improve skin tone and texture. MSM can help dark circles by increasing circulation and promoting healthier skin.
