FAQs

 

The eye contour area is one of the most fragile parts of the face, which is why it’s often the first to show wrinkles, fine lines and other signs of ageing. There are several reasons for this:

 

  • Thinner skin – The skin around the eyes is much thinner than on other parts of the face and contains fewer sebaceous (oil) glands. This means it is naturally drier and less protected.

  • Constant movement – We blink up to 12 times per minute, and the skin around the eyes also moves when we smile, laugh or frown. This repeated motion contributes to fine lines forming more quickly.

  • Frequent rubbing – Many of us rub our eyes without realising it, which can weaken the delicate skin barrier over time.

  • Environmental and lifestyle factors – Sun exposure, pollution, smoking and fatigue can accelerate skin ageing by generating oxidative stress that damages collagen and elastin.

     

As a result, the eye area is more prone to dark circles, puffiness, fine lines and wrinkles than other parts of the face.

An eye contour cream is specifically formulated for the delicate skin around the eyes, one of the thinnest and most fragile areas of the face. A good eye cream helps to:

  • Target signs of fatigue such as dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines

  • Hydrate and soothe sensitive skin to relieve discomfort and dryness

  • Support skin barrier function to protect against irritation and environmental stressors 

We recommend using a moisturising eye contour care product from the age of 25, as this is when skin aging begins. Progressive oxidative stress and collagen loss contribute to the formation of wrinkles and fine lines. This is why prevention is crucial. By incorporating an eye contour care product into your routine, you can help hydrate the skin and delay the onset of visible ageing. Atoderm Intensive Eye is formulated for eyelid atopy, specifically addressing inflammation and irritation.

The first step in any routine is cleansing. You can then apply your face serum, eye contour cream and finally your face cream or moisturiser. 

 

The way you apply your eye contour cream can help enhance the benefits. Place a pea-sized amount on your index, middle and ring fingers and massage it gently into the skin around your eyes. To reduce puffiness, use your fingers to gently tap the under-eye area to encourage lymphatic drainage. To combat fine lines, gently smooth your eye contour cream from the inside outwards over the lower and upper eyelids with the index and middle fingers. For dark circles, tap the eye contour area from the inside outwards with your index and middle fingers. Repeat each of these gestures up to 3 times for more radiant skin.
