SOME BY MI - Intense Retinol Eye Contour Cream

Why use an eye contour cream?

The eye contour area is particularly delicate. Its skin, thinner and with fewer sebaceous glands, is often the first to show signs of fatigue and aging. That's why using a specific cream for this area is worth considering. Here are its main benefits:

1. Targeted hydration

The eye contour cream provides hydration adapted to this delicate area, preventing dryness and tightness while respecting its sensitivity.

2. Reduction of dark circles and bags

Formulated with decongesting and brightening active ingredients, eye contour creams help to reduce dark circles and puffiness for a rested and luminous look.

3. Wrinkle prevention and reduction

Over time, facial expressions and dehydration contribute to the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes. Specialized creams often contain active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, peptides, or retinol, which help to smooth and firm this delicate area.

4. Protection against external aggression

Some eye creams offer additional protection against environmental aggressors such as pollution or UV rays, thus preventing premature damage.

5. A smooth and precise application

Designed for a light and non-irritating texture, eye contour creams are easily applied with gentle movements, thus avoiding any additional stress on this delicate area.

How to properly use an eye contour cream?

• Use a small amount : A drop of product is enough for both eyes.
• Apply it gently : Gently pat with your fingertips, without rubbing.
• Adapt it to your needs : In the morning, opt for a light formula that reduces puffiness. In the evening, choose a formula rich in repairing active ingredients.

Good to know!

Eye creams are formulated differently to prevent milia (small white bumps around the eye) and to moisturize just the right amount, unlike day cream which may be too rich for this area.

How to choose?

With so many options available, choosing between eye cream and eye patches can be difficult. Here are a few key points to help you decide based on your needs and routine:

1. Eye contour cream: an essential daily treatment

The eye contour cream is designed for regular use, morning and evening. It offers cumulative benefits with continued use.

Ideal for:

• Long-lasting hydration: These creams are perfect for maintaining good hydration throughout the day.
• Prevention of signs of aging: They often contain targeted active ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin C or peptides, to fight against fine lines and loss of firmness.
• Sensitive skin: Their soft and creamy texture is suitable for fragile and reactive skin.

Recommended routine:

Apply a small amount of cream morning and evening, gently tapping with your fingertips to stimulate microcirculation.

2. Eye contour patches: a temporary boost

Eye contour patches offer intensive, targeted care, often with immediate results. They are ideal for occasional use or as a complement to your daily routine.

Ideal for:

• Quick results: Perfect before an event or to revive tired eyes.
• Specific problems: They target precise needs such as reducing dark circles, puffiness or intense hydration.
• Moments of relaxation: They offer a moment of relaxation while providing effective care.

Recommended routine:

Use them 1 to 2 times a week or as needed. Leave them on for 10 to 20 minutes, then massage in any excess serum.

3. Which option should I choose?

• For daily use and long-term benefits: Opt for an eye contour cream.
• For a quick and temporary effect: Patches are your best ally.
• For a complete routine: Combine the two! Use a cream every day and patches as a complement when needed or for an express boost.

Conclusion

Eye creams and patches are not in competition, but rather complementary. The choice depends on your needs, your lifestyle, and the time you wish to dedicate to your routine. In any case, both options will help you pamper this delicate area and maintain a bright, radiant look.
