‘Is eye cream necessary?’ It’s a question many of us who are already lathering our faces with a moisturiser and serum have pondered, but the truth is this area of fragile skin needs extra attention and care.
It’s no secret that your eyelids and the delicate skin under your eyes are usually one of the first areas to show signs of ageing¹. This is because the skin is thinner², and has less oil glands and collagen, compared to the skin on the rest of our body¹. Unfortunately, this makes the under-eye area more susceptible to both photodamage and environmental damage³, and in turn, sagging, fine lines and wrinkles¹, which is why a quality eye cream should have a prime spot in your beauty regime, regardless of your age.
