Gels are needed for women older than thirty years, whose skin on the eyelids is not swollen and dry, it needs increased moisture. Gel tool has a delicate texture, absorbs quickly, leaving a feeling of comfort. Apply it both at night and in the daytime before applying makeup. For older women, a complex combination of two types is necessary, as the skin around the eyes needs treatment and recovery.

Beneficial features

Unlike other areas of the face, the eyelid skin does not have protective properties. She is the most gentle and thin. Mimic processes are reflected, first of all, on the skin around the eyes, actively participating in them, causing stretching and sagging.

  2. Amino acids and retinol. These nutrients are needed to accelerate collagen synthesis in the case of premature aging of the skin.
  3. Caffeine. It has the ability to remove swelling and swelling, tone up and improve blood circulation in the tissues. Gels with this component are especially appreciated and are considered effective.
  4. Linoleic and linolenic acid. They create protection and prevent rapid excretion of moisture, providing your skin with intensive moisturizing.
  5. Rose Hip Extracts, as well as other plants and algae. They provide nourishment to the aging skin of the eyelids, further softening and smoothing it.

Care of the area around the eyes begins after 25 years. For the first age group, cosmetics are issued with the mark “Anti-age”, these are ladies after thirty-five or forty years. The second group of women, over 45 years old, uses beauty products with the label “tretinoin” on the package. These are universal in composition creams and gels, which are designed specifically for women of middle and older age. They not only moisturize, but also create a protective film, which is necessary for fading skin, which tends to become thinner over time.

Varieties

Eye gels are divided according to the main purpose. Specially developed formula helps to get rid of:

  1. Dark circles. You should look closely at the color of bruises under the eyes. If they are brownish, it is a violation of pigmentation. A gel containing caffeine and bleaching components, such as hydroquinone, will help eliminate the drawback. Vitamin C will accelerate collagen synthesis. Violet or bluish circles occur in women with weakened capillaries. To strengthen the walls of small vessels, vitamins A and K are introduced into the composition of the agent, they increase elasticity with the help of ceramides.
  2. Bags. Against them, cooling gels are produced that have a strong lifting effect - dioptigel and lioton, which are used regularly throughout the month. The effect of applying kurozin-gel comes slower, but it is very resistant.
  3. Wrinkles and excessive dryness of the skin. This potent eye contour restores and promotes moisture retention. Quality products should not contain petrolatum and parabens, which close the pores and interfere with tissue respiration and oxygen enrichment.

How to apply

The gel, designed for the skin around the eyes, is applied to the eyelids with light patting movements. Do not rub the tool into the skin, as you can stretch the thin dermis in this area of ​​the face. For effective application, take a small portion, the size of a pea, on the fourth or fifth finger. Then spread the gel evenly over the entire eye socket, leaving dotted strokes on the upper and lower eyelids. At the same time, part of the mobile eyelid is not affected by eye care, since exposure to it causes tears.

The upper eyelid is smeared with a roller gel from the bridge of the nose to the temples, the lower eyelid in the opposite direction, to the inner corner of the eye.

In circular motions, pat on the lower and upper eyelids, completing the procedure with a cosmetic massage. To do this, three fingers of the palm - the second, third and fourth - are placed along the edge of the lower eyelid, gently massaging the eye socket along the edge. The same is done in the area of ​​the eyeball.

Massage not only allows the gel to be absorbed better into the skin, but also normalizes metabolic processes.

To achieve the maximum effect, the gel is applied in the morning and evening. Cosmetologists call the optimal time for regeneration of the epidermis - it is eight in the evening, or approximately two hours before sleep.

Morning procedures are performed fifteen or twenty minutes before applying makeup on the face.
