The skin around the eye contour is the thinnest and most delicate of the entire face and requires specific care. It is the first area where wrinkles, dark circles and loss of firmness appear, which is why a dedicated eye contour product is essential in any anti-ageing routine.

What concern do you want to treat

• Wrinkles and expression lines: look for eye creams with retinol, peptides or bakuchiol.
• Dark circles: vitamin C, alpha-arbutin and caffeine.
• Puffiness and fluid retention: caffeine, green tea, decongestant extracts.
• Dehydration and fine lines: hyaluronic acid and niacinamide.

How to apply eye contour cream

Always apply it gently, tapping lightly with your ring finger (the one that exerts the least pressure). Start from the inner corner outwards, working along the orbital bone. Avoid applying it too close to the lash line so it doesn't get into the eye.

When to start using it

Your 20s (around 20-25) are the ideal age to start, even with light, hydrating formulas. From the age of 30, incorporate more potent anti-ageing actives. Complement it with the right serum and face cream for your skin.
