Wrinkles around the eyes – home remedies

Wrinkles around the eyes – the fine, delicate first signs of ageing that are visible in some people even at 18. In most people they show themselves around the age of 25, and if you have good genes and use the right care only around 30. . What are the basic rules for caring for the skin around the eyes so that wrinkles are not so visible? . The skin around the eyes is very thin – only half a millimetre thick. On other parts of the face it is four times thicker. There are almost no fatty acids in the periorbital area, few sebaceous and sweat glands and support fibres such as collagen and elastin. The circular muscle of the eye works continuously, contracting at least 10 000 times a day. This is why wrinkles around the eyes are among the first to appear on the face.

To understand the importance of proper care, let’s start with the physiological nuances of this delicate area: .

• • Thickness of only 0.5 mm.
  • Sparse sebaceous glands.
  • Blood vessels are close to the surface.
  • Few muscles, but they are in constant motion.
  • Increased sensitivity due to the large number of mast cells, which contain many inflammatory mediators.
  • Thin lipid barrier, making the skin around the eyes very sensitive and quick to lose moisture. This delicate area should be cared for from a young age to prevent premature ageing, and eye creams should be used from 20-25 years of age.

Wrinkles around the eyes – counteracting at home care

In general, as you use colour cosmetics, skin care around the eyes should take into account:

• Make-up removal – apply make-up remover to a cotton pad, apply to the closed eyelid for a few seconds, then remove make-up with gentle patting motions and wash off with cool water. After washing, moisturise the skin with special products.
• Improve microcirculation around the eyes (vasoconstrictor drugs)
• Hydration – drink adequate amounts of water
• Stimulation – peels, skin nourishment, activation of fibroblasts and hyaluronic acid

What is improving microcirculation in the skin around the eyes?

The capillaries in the eye area dilate easily, so swelling of this area is a very pressing problem. In addition, because of the swelling, the active ingredients in the cream will not work as effectively as we would like them to, as the ‘extra water’ will prevent them from reaching their desired target. Recall that the development of swelling is favoured by:

1. loss of skin elasticity

2. a “weakening” of the muscles

3. impaired micro-circulation

4. impairment of vessel wall permeability Chantarelle takes into account everything that leads to swelling, and the products work in different directions for the best effect. It is also important to remember that the problem of oedema can be linked to many internal pathologies of the body, so the effectiveness of cosmetic treatments depends on eliminating the factors that contribute to its formation.
