Why is the eye contour area the most delicate?
Because this area has very thin skin—in fact, about ten times thinner than the rest—and it also has far fewer cellular layers than other parts of the skin, meaning its level of protection is lower. It does not contain enough sebaceous or sweat glands and has a lower supply of collagen and elastin. Furthermore, its blood microcirculation functions more slowly, which means that drainage in the area is always insufficient.
To this, we must add that this area experiences intense muscular mobility, which is why it is the first part of the face where signs of cutaneous aging, fatigue, and stress become visible.
What are the most common problems?
Wrinkles
As it is an area in constant motion where muscular contraction is continuous, if we do not provide the necessary care, the dreaded crow's feet appear.
Eye bags
They form due to a loss of muscle tone in the membrane that covers this part of the lower eyelid, which causes sagging and thinning of the skin. Additionally, fluid retention and congestion are also usually the most common causes for the appearance of these unpleasant companions that make our eyes look hidden.
Dark circles
This pigmentation of the skin under the eyes is usually caused by lack of sleep, age, or genetics, but other common causes are loss of volume in this area and a lack of oxygenation in the tissues.
Puffy eyelids
This is a lack of drainage caused by poor microcirculation; it usually appears primarily upon waking, after a few hours have passed without any movement and therefore without lymphatic drainage.
Which natural ingredients will improve your gaze?
-
RICE BRAN oil activates peripheral microcirculation, protects against climatic aggressions, and drains and decongests. Additionally, it slows the signs of aging thanks to its high antioxidant content. - JOJOBA oil is a magnificent skin sebum rebalancer; it stimulates elastin synthesis, restoring the skin's natural elasticity and combating aging.
- HYALURONIC ACID is a natural component of the skin and occupies the spaces between collagen/elastin fibers and skin cells. It therefore has a filling function and provides cohesion to the tissue, but it also has a "sponge" function since it is capable of retaining a large amount of water and releasing it the moment the skin needs it. Added to anti-aging cosmetic formulations, it compensates for the lack of natural hyaluronic acid and fills empty spaces, thereby reducing wrinkles, improving skin firmness, and diminishing expression lines while hydrating and lubricating the surrounding tissue. At Herbera, hyaluronic acid is obtained through the biofermentation of wheat proteins.
- CAFFEINE acts as a draining agent, decongesting eye bags and dark circles. It has firming and keratolytic action, eliminating dead skin cells and favoring skin renewal.
- GINKGO extract, due to its flavonoid content, presents vasoconstrictive, vasoprotective, and anti-inflammatory actions; these increase blood circulation at the sub-epidermal level and improve the transfer of micronutrients through the cell membrane, which produces an increase in the supply of oxygen to the cells and therefore improves the texture and appearance of the skin.
How to apply the Herbera Eye Contour?
- Every day: in the morning and at night, always with clean skin.
- In a small amount: from the inside to the outside of the eye, gently tapping with your fingertips to facilitate absorption.
- The most suitable finger is the ring finger, because it has the least strength and this allows us to avoid excessive pressure.
- Very important: never forget to spread outward, covering the "crow's feet" area, which if you start in time, you will never see appear!
