We have become aware that when performing the facial routine, the steps are essential. It is already more than normal to see processes with toners, serums (even more than one), creams, masks, etc. However, when we enter the field of the eye contour, this is usually a big one forgotten. “It is true that eye contour products are not the most essential if it is not a particular area of concern, but if this region is a current or future concern it is essential to treat it with specific products to eliminate congestion, lines of expression or the unwanted panda effect, and prevent the passing of the years from tiring the look,” said Estefanía Nieto, director of education at Omorovicza.
In this way, if this area is something that concerns us or if we want to avoid the effects of aging that are not yet felt too much, it should be treated with specific products. “This is super important, because contouring treatments have a very specific formulation that meets the somewhat specific needs of this area: thinner skin, a different pH level, etc. Using non-specific products usually doesn’t offer the same benefits and sometimes even none,” says the training director of the company Perricone MD, Raquel González.
What’s new: a two-step routine with serum and cream
This is the eye overlap. In this sense, the cosmetics market offers more and more solutions to specifically treat the area. “Currently there are serums and creams for the eye contour that we can apply in the same order as the rest of the face. First we can apply a serum to treat more specific problems and on the other hand we conclude with a cream that covers other needs and seals in hydration in the area,” adds the Perricone MD expert.
Is it essential to apply two products in this order? “This will be important when we want to tackle very specific problems. The contour area has a lot of peculiarities and is usually a big neglect, but deep down it is essential to treat it to ensure a young and rested look, something that the skin deeply. Gesture of the face. A routine of more than one step can deeply benefit this area, giving more results and being seen in a much faster way,” explains Elisabeth San Gregorio, technical director of the British company Medik8, from.
For the first phase of EYe Overlap, Medik8’s r-Retinoate Day & Night Eye Serum is a great option. It is a very high quality eye contour serum. In its formula stands out retinyl retinoate, a principle known for drastically reducing expression lines and wrinkles.
For the second phase, as a contour cream, we like Omorovicza’s Reviving Eye Cream, which treats puffiness and fades dark circles and lines. It is absorbed ultra-fast and leaves the skin with a pleasantly soft feeling and provides hydration. You will like it!
