Wrinkles primarily attack the delicate skin around the eyes, but these changes are not always associated with the onset of aging. The reasons may be improper self-care, poor hydration or stress. Folk remedies that also have preventive properties will help to effectively solve the problem.
Causes of wrinkles
To stop the early development of wrinkles around the eyes, it is important to remember the factors that can cause them:
- One of the main reasons for the formation of crow's feet is lack of moisture. This is explained by the fact that poorly moisturized skin dries out and loses its elasticity, as a result of which it stretches better.
- Excessive facial activity also contributes to the appearance of wrinkles. Over the years, the skin becomes less elastic, so it is more difficult for it to return to its original state.
- The list is completed by poor nutrition and frequent stress, which are nevertheless considered quite serious factors. Here the consequences can be even more dangerous: with a lack of vitamins and minerals, the grooves around the eyes become more distinct and pronounced.
The main problem with the appearance of wrinkles in the eye area remains the impossibility of masking them. Foundations, concealers and other products only further emphasize the presence of folds. That is why literate women resort to folk recipes.
How to avoid crow's feet
You need to start taking care of the skin around your eyes when you are young. It is worth paying close attention to the quality of cosmetics and eyelid care products. To solve the problem, you can also use “grandmother’s methods”, which can not only prevent the formation of new wrinkles, but also smooth out existing ones.

This problem hasn’t really affected me yet, but my sister is constantly coming up with something. Silver spoons are regularly frozen in the freezer - you need to apply them to your eyes in the morning, it removes swelling and wrinkles. Peels from fresh cucumbers - wipe around the eyes, and if you don’t have fresh ones on hand, then you need to make supplies in advance, that is, freeze them. Well, plus some tea bags, but these are already warm. Believe it or not, at 38 she looks like just a girl. Maybe this kind of operation of the freezer helps...

I am 24 years old and about 2 months ago wrinkles began to appear around my eyes. And for some reason there are more wrinkles under the right eye. I urgently began to look for ways to combat these nasty paths. First, I bought two products in the store - these are products from the company “Black Pearl” and “Magrav”. I’ve been using them for 2 months now and I can say that they help very little. Then I bought cosmetic oils at the pharmacy: peach oil and apricot oil. I added them to creams around the eyes, and sometimes applied them before bed with patting movements of my fingers. Oils help, but not much. Today I discovered a magical face mask made at home and concluded that it will get rid of wrinkles. Ingredients: 1 egg white, a little warmed milk and 1.5 tbsp. l. oatmeal. All this is mixed, placed on gauze and on the eyes for about 20 minutes. When I took off the gauze and went to the mirror, the effect shocked me! There were no wrinkles. At all. So I highly recommend trying it and seeing for yourself.
