The eye contour is a foolproof and essential product within our daily beauty routine. Minimizing puffiness, dark circles and of course slowing the aging of this area is a constant battle that can be achieved with persistence and the right products. That’s why we’re always looking for the perfect eye contour: the one that’s effective in its goal of helping us slow down the passage of time, and that in turn pleasant texture, non-sticky and absorbable fast. We’re talking ultra-light eye contour.
With this type of ultra-light eye contour, we try to escape the feeling of applying an eye contour creamy texture, which never seems to dry out and that when you touch it, it seems as if it has not been recorded, even though hours have passed since we distributed it in this area. The light and fast-absorbing textures are the best option to fight all signs of aging around the eyes, but for their effect to be optimal, we must take into account a range of indications when applying. And we don’t say it, the experts say it.
“The eye contour is applied to a dry face, which is best apply it in small taps as it is a more sensitive area“, confirms Aura Serrás, director of Is Clinical Spain. Although we tend to apply all kinds of products in our beauty routine with the index finger, the expert points out that it is correct to do it with the ring finger “from the outside to inside to prevent fluid build-up and toxins. In case you don’t have bags, it is preferable (also for small details) but in this case, apply the product from the inside out to stimulate the skin and reduce expression lines”.
This feeling of non-absorption of this type of product can be due, for example, to applying more than necessary, when one drop – equivalent to a grain of rice – is enough for each eye. “Inserting a larger amount will not increase profits, On the contrary, we waste the product,” confirms Aura Serrás. In addition, she assures that “it must always be applied before the cream, because if we apply it afterwards, the benefits of the eye contour will not penetrate properly, since those of the cream will be more have penetrated, so we would still be wasting the product.
