Spotlight on eye creams.

We've all heard the saying that the eyes are the window to the soul. Perhaps that is why we place so much importance on the appearance of the eye area.

The eyes need some TLC for a few different reasons. First, the eye area has the thinnest skin of the entire body. This matters because if blood vessels are weak or leaking, the hemoglobin will be visible and the skin will look dark. The skin around the eyes has a very small amount of fat so it will be more prone to sagging as we age. Plus, the skin does not have the same oil producing glands that other areas of the face benefit from which leads to lines and wrinkles. Take time to keep those pretty peepers looking their best- you will be glad you did as you age gracefully!

A daily eye cream can be used for many reasons: to fight fine lines, to hydrate and plump the skin, reduce puffiness, or reduce darkness. Some eye products will multi-task to save you time and give you the most bang for your buck.

Here are a few of our most beloved eye creams that our clients can't live without...

1.     If you want to reduce fine lines and prevent new ones from appearing, Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Eye Concentrate does both. The neuropeptides inhibit muscle contractions that cause wrinkles while collagen production is boosted to firm and smooth the eyes.

2.     Teamine Eye Complex includes essential peptides that will stimulate collagen growth to firm and tone fragile skin, caffeine to reduce puffiness, and mild exfoliants that will smooth away fine lines and wrinkles. Also, it is second to none for reducing under eye dark circles. Recommended by Dermatologists everywhere, Teamine can do it all!

3.     Do your eyes need a drink to satisfy their thirst? TRUE Essential Moisture Eye Contour Cream is a highly concentrated hydrator that is ideal for all skin types. Packed with antioxidants and peptides, your skin will say "aahhh!" It blends in easily and it is lightweight.

4.     Obagi Elastiderm Eye Treatment is designed for the tired, mature, wrinkled, thin, sagging and sensitive skin around your eyes. It works by encouraging collagen and elastin production which firms, smoothes, and produces more resilient skin in just two weeks! Sagging eyelids are lifted and delicate eye tissue is firmed and toned.
