Don’t forget your eyes! 6 Eye Care Tips

We talk a lot about skincare and spend a lot of money on it, but often, we forget about our eyes. The eye area is important and shouldn’t be neglected. In fact, from a young age, we need to take special care of the eye area.

Why? Read the latest beauty tips from Beauty at Ab Fab, your Maylands beauty specialist to discover why.


Why is taking care of the eye area so important?

The eye is the finest and usually driest tissue on the body, with no oil glands to help keep it protected and hydrated. The eyes are also, usually the first place to show signs of ageing and are often neglected until we get older and begin to notice those evil crow’s feet starting to form.

Sure, you can get Botox or other cosmetic enhancements to help smooth out those wrinkles, but this can be expensive and isn’t suitable for everyone. So, why not take care of the eye area early on, so you don’t need to take such drastic and costly measures?

Tip 1: Keep the eye area hydrated while cleansing

Cleansing is really important, but some cleansing products can dry out the area.

So, it’s best to use micellar water or cleanser designed especially for the eye area, that will remove makeup without drying out your skin. Have oily skin? Your cleanser for oily skin likely isn’t suitable for your eyes.

Good micellar water, such as the Essential Micellar Water from [ comfort zone ], is the perfect solution to removing your makeup and skin products, without drying out your skin and eye area. When cleansing your face, avoid your eye area.

Once cleansed, a gentle scrub used once or twice a week all over the face is great for stimulating new cell growth and smoothing skin - but not too close to the eyes!

Tip 2: Reduce signs of puffiness and fatigue with eye patches  

Want to reduce the signs of puffiness and fatigue around your eyes? Ready to say goodbye to unsightly dark circles? 

The [comfort zone] Sublime Skin Eye Patch can help. Use immediately after cleansing, to reduce the signs of fatigue and ageing.  Rich in Hesperidin to reduce under-eye puffiness, Chrysin for dark circles and Hexapeptide to stimulate Collagen production to smooth wrinkles, these eye patches work wonders.

Don’t forget the rest of your face – you can also apply a mask suitable for your skin type for the rest of your face, and in 15 minutes your skin will glow (perfect way to prepare for a party or event, or simply give your skin some much needed TLC).

Tip 5: Soak your skin in SPF

As with any daycare routine, we must always remember to finish with a sun care product, otherwise, all our good work to keep those crow’s feet away will be for nothing!

Our favourite SPF product at Beauty at Ab Fab is, the new [ comfort zone ] Sublime Skin Color Perfect SPSF50 – a beautiful tinted face cream, with high UVA/UVB protection. Enriched with Palmitoyl Glycine, an anti-age active ingredient, it helps prevent the visible signs of photo-ageing, such as spots and wrinkles.

Bonus Tip: Sleep is our best tool to keep our skin at its peak

During the night, new collagen is produced and toxins are eliminated. Allowing your skin to naturally regenerate and repair itself at night, is the key to preventing long-term damage and visible signs of ageing – and guess what? Sleep is FREE!
