With the skin around the eyes being 10 x thinner than the rest of the face, it’s an area prone to premature ageing. Consumers today are looking for solutions for ageing eyes, but is there an effective alternative to surgery to achieve a measurable lift?
Why the skin around our eyes is prone to premature ageing
With the eye skin being thinner and containing less elastin, oil glands and subcutaneous fat, the eye area is prone to dryness and premature skin ageing. This delicate skin is more susceptible to the environmental and lifestyle factors that cause up to half of visible skin ageing.
Causes of premature ageing around the eyes
Couple the genetic factors with eye fatigue from constant technology use that accelerates the weakening of optic muscles, causing eyelids to sag; Screen time-induced sleep deprivation that hinders skin’s ability to restore collagen, impacting the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and drooping eyelids. And the constant stress and strain of continued eye movement that puckers the skin around the eyes, it’s no surprise that consumers are looking for a lifted look for their tired and ageing eyes!
Non-invasive alternatives to an eye lift (blepharoplasty)
Blepharoplasty is a type of surgery that involves removing excess skin from the eyelids. According to the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, blepharoplasty was the second most popular cosmetic surgery in 2022, after rhinoplasty. If you’re looking for a non-surgical solution to lifting the eyes, try Phyto Nature Lifting Eye Cream – a transformative eye cream with potent peptides and phytoactives that delivers a more lifted look.
The importance of choosing the right eye cream
Here’s an eye-opening revelation: most eye creams aren’t formulated for use on the eyelid. This is significant because the eyelid is often the first place we start to see signs of sagging – so using a product that is safe and effective for both the lid and the undereye is essential for getting an optimal lift.
Dermalogica Phyto Nature Lifting Eye Cream is a game-changer in the world of lifting eye care. Specifically designed to target the delicate skin around the eyes, it delivers a measurable lift after just 1 use* with a potent blend of peptides, plant extracts, and hydrating ingredients.
*Obtained during independent clinical testing of 31 people, 2 applications/day for 8 weeks.
