Маски вокруг глаз: особенности кожи и рецепты

The skin around the eyes has its own characteristics, because it is the condition of the upper and lower eyelids that betrays our ailments and fatigue.

Area around the eyes: characteristic features

You may have noticed that fatigue or malaise instantly becomes noticeable "in the eyes", or rather – due to changes in the condition of the skin of the upper and lower eyelids.

Research by scientists has led to the conclusion that the skin here is three times thinner than in other parts of the face. Its structure is characterized by a low content of collagen fibers, and in fact they provide the skin with proper elasticity.

Is it any wonder that due to the slightest lack of moisture, the skin around the eyes begins to stretch and sag in unaesthetic folds.

No less important is the fact that it is here that blood microcirculation is often disturbed, which, naturally, deprives this area of ​​the skin of the necessary nutrients.

Trying to use rich nourishing creams only makes things worse: the skin becomes too heavy and stretched, and the pores become clogged.

As a result, instead of a fresh and clear "rested" glance, in the morning you find sagging skin and all the same "bags".

Factors accelerating the aging of the skin around the eyes

So, we know about the internal conditions that make the skin of the eyelids and the area under the eyes especially vulnerable.

But besides them, there are several other factors that adversely affect the condition of the skin around the eyes:

Changing weather conditions, or rather the bright sun or sharp gusts of wind, force us to squint, which means that they contribute to the formation of the first "crow's feet".

The manifestation of any, including positive, emotions also leads to the appearance of wrinkles in the corners of the eyes.

Improper care, which is aggravated by the use of inappropriate, too heavy creams with a dense texture, and harsh, aggressive removal of decorative cosmetics.

Needless to say, the flaws are not immediately noticeable, and besides, we can not change the weather, stop frowning or laugh contagiously.

However, we can adjust the care and use masks around the eyes to make the skin of the eyelids firmer and more lifted. Features of skin care in the problem area

So, the

"bags" that plague us under the eyes and wrinkles – not only traces of ruthless time, but also, to a large extent – the result of a neglect of such a delicate area on the face.

Therefore, let's start with the rules for applying skin care products around the eyes:

1.

Purchase a special cream

marked on the package. Such creams usually have a more delicate texture, when applied, they do not clog pores and are absorbed very quickly. Of course, it is better to give preference to trusted brands. 2.

Moisturizing cream must be applied

along the line of the eye socket, while it is not rubbed, but “driven in” with slightly light movements; fingertips. 3.

You can start applying your daily eye makeup

only after using a moisturizer. 4.

Before going to bed, after removing make-up

, use a nourishing cream or a special mask around the eyes. 5.

On sunny days

wear quality sunglasses, to avoid having to constantly squint. Rules for applying masks around the eyes

Like face creams,

eye masks

are also divided into two categories: nourishing and moisturizing. You can purchase a ready-made cosmetic product or prepare a mask from natural ingredients. However, no matter what kind of eye mask you use,

follow a few simple rules, this will achieve the maximum effect and avoid side effects:

• before applying the mask, carefully remove the remnants of decorative cosmetics;

• to better prepare the skin, use the most gentle scrub, or better, steam the skin a little: acting in this way, you can open the pores;

• the mask is usually made before going to bed, but you should not leave it all night – too long exposure can cause swelling;

• it is preferable to purchase ready-made formulations designed for one application;

• when purchasing a finished cosmetic product, do not forget to carefully study the composition, in case of allergens, reddened, swollen eyelids and other unpleasant phenomena await you;

• apply even the most

safest mask made from natural ingredients with the utmost care, avoiding contact with the mucous membrane of the eye. Be sure to note how often you can use one or another composition, what should be the optimal break in its use.

In addition, it is very important to monitor the individual reaction of your skin to one or another composition of the mask around the eyes, in case of redness or swelling, do not use it

under any circumstances.

Eye masks made from natural ingredients

You may have noticed more than once that

means for delicate skin around the eyes

are not very cheap, but at the same time you have no guarantees that a new mask from a well-known cosmetic brand will be really effective. Most likely, in order to find "your" perfect remedy, you will have to try several analogues from different companies, and this will require considerable costs.

We offer you a much cheaper way to experiment by making such masks in your kitchen: at least they will be simple and affordable, completely natural remedies.

Shall we try this?

Raw potato and parsley mask

This

eye mask

will help reduce puffiness, make dark circles under the eyes less noticeable and help strengthen capillary walls.

We will need:

• boiling water – 100 ml;

• fresh, finely chopped parsley – 1 tbsp. spoon;

• potatoes – 1 tuber (medium size);

• olive oil – 1 st. spoon.

First of all, pour boiling water over the parsley and let our infusion cool down a bit. Peel the potatoes and grate on the smallest grater.

Add two tablespoons of infusion and olive oil to the grated potatoes, mix thoroughly and apply evenly on a piece of gauze (you can use a regular medical bandage).

We apply such a bandage for about a quarter of an hour, then carefully remove the remnants of the mask.

Nourishing herbal mask

We have already mentioned that

the area around the eyes

often suffers from lack of nutrition. To effectively eliminate excessive dryness of the skin, use a cream based on butter.

We will need:

• butter – 1 st. spoon;

• castor oil – 1 st. spoon;

• chamomile – 1 st. spoon;

• lime blossom – 1 st. spoon;

• boiling water – 100 ml.

In this case, we will also pour boiling water over our herbal tea and let it brew, and in the meantime, mix the butter and castor oil until a homogeneous consistency.

When our herbal decoction has cooled down a bit, add it and mix thoroughly again.

No gauze is required to apply this mass, just apply to the area around the eyes.

Bananovo – cream mask

And in this recipe you don't have to brew anything.

Only two components are needed to prepare the mask:

• mashed banana pulp – 1 st. spoon;

• butter – 1 st. spoon.

Mix the ingredients and apply to the area around the eyes. This mask has a nourishing and refreshing effect, smoothes fine wrinkles and gently whitens the skin.

It is important to remember

that only high-quality, fresh products are suitable for the preparation of cosmetic masks around the eyes. The use of a wide variety of masks around the eyes will be even more effective if you accustom yourself to devote enough time to good rest, give up bad habits, and also limit the use of strong tea and coffee.

In addition, people who are prone to edema should avoid eating spicy and salty foods in the evening.
