How To Cure Dry Skin Around The Eyes

March 10th, 2010

You should not think that you are the only person who has dry skin beneath your eyes since this is a fairly common condition that is experienced by many. The reason why dry skin around the eyes worries us is that it not only affects the way we look, but is also the precursor of bags under the eyes.

So, what is the cause of this dry skin beneath the eyes and why is it that the skin around our eyes is particularly affected by this dryness? Normally our skin remains moisturized through the natural mechanism of the secretion of oil through glands in the skin. But the more delicate area of skin beneath our eyes has fewer oil glands. And this is why so many of us are affected by dry skin around the eyes.}

As you will probably know the two main causes of damage to your skin are smoking and excessive exposure to the sun.
Although we can avoid these two causes, what we cannot escape is the inevitable process of growing older. As we grow older the collagen and elastin in our skin is reduced and this leads to the loss of firmness and the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Collagen and elastin are proteins that help our skin stay supple and firm.

Luckily for us there are skin care products that have been designed to stimulate the production of collagen in our bodies and so enable our complexion to defy the passing of the years. One of these ingredients is an exotic kelp known as Phytessence Wakame which comes from Japan. This works by blocking a harmful enzyme in your body. Another ingredient is Cynergy TK which actually stimulates your own collagen to grow again.}

Since the skin around the eyes is particularly delicate there are special creams and gels for use on this area of your face. An ingredient known as EyelissTM has proved to be particularly effective. Until recently this was the jealously concealed secret of big celebrities. It has a dramatic effect in reducing bags under the eyes, and smoothing out wrinkles. And it works amazingly fast.
