We lose elasticity and plumpness around our eyes as we age, leading to lines and wrinkles. With a specially formulated eye-firming cream and other tightening products, you can reduce these common signs of aging and minimize dark under-eye circles. At Dermstore, we've curated a collection of eye-tightening creams, serums, moisturizers, and treatments from leading brands including Medik8 and StriVectin.
Fat and collagen keep skin looking tight and bouncy. The skin around our eyes is thinner, so it naturally contains less collagen. As we age, we lose collagen levels and elasticity, and the effects of this are more pronounced around the eyes; wrinkles and fine lines are often so much more noticeable here.
Adding eye-firming cream to your skin care regimen can help to minimize these signs of aging. Dermatologists want us to apply an eye cream at least once a day as part of the PM routine to help improve skin quality. Dr Annie Chiu, a Los Angeles-based dermatologist, recommends looking for under-eye firming creams and tightening serums that contain vitamin C, retinols, and growth factors that encourage the thickening of collagen. However, it's important to be cautious: "A lot of great active ingredients can actually cause irritation," says Dr Chiu, "so it has to be specially stabilized or formulated for this delicate skin area."
This is why it's important to choose eye-firming products that are specially designed for this part of the face. If you need help looking for the best eye-firming creams, we can offer tailored recommendations and talk you through how to apply them properly.
