The first signs of aging appear here. But sometimes wrinkles
can also be seen in fairly young women. Why is this happening?

Wrinkles around the eyes appear with age. Skin ages, collagen,
which, like a frame, preserves the contours of the face, becomes
less. The skin of the eyelids, being thinner and also subject to greater
stress due to constant movement, earlier than other areas of the face
“gives up” in the fight against age. Usually noticeable changes occur in
fourth ten, but depending on the woman’s lifestyle this period
may come earlier or later.

wrinkles of the same name. And, of course, again, first of all, this happens in
eye area.
The habit of squinting your eyes leads to the appearance of folds on the skin of the eyelids,

sight, bright sun or simple coquetry. The result will be the same - like this
called "crow's feet". Lack of vitamins, alcohol consumption, smoking and poor environment
worsen the condition of the skin in general and the thin skin around the eyes in
in particular.

We all experience the appearance of wrinkles sooner or later. The most vulnerable part for their occurrence is the area around the eyes, since the skin there is very thin and delicate. During the day, this area is subject to a lot of stress due to laughing, squinting, blinking, etc. In addition, lack of sleep, an unhealthy lifestyle and daily exposure to cosmetics lead to early signs of skin aging, particularly wrinkles around the eyes. Using traditional medicine recipes, you can eliminate wrinkles around the eyes or make them less noticeable.

Causes of wrinkles around the eyes.
The early appearance of wrinkles around the eye area does not at all indicate aging of the body. Withering of the skin in this area can be associated with many reasons, in particular: inattention to oneself, improper care and the use of low-quality cosmetics. All this in combination can provoke the appearance of wrinkles as early as 22-25 years old.

The delicate skin around the eyes requires special careful and regular care, since a lack of moisture leads to dry skin, aging, loss of elasticity and firmness, and as a result, early wrinkles. Excessive facial expressions, poor nutrition, and stress also adversely affect the condition of the skin around the eyes, which leads to early wrinkles.

The so-called “crow's feet” around the eyes are very difficult to disguise with any means of decorative cosmetics (concealers, etc.), they only make them more noticeable. Therefore, the solution in this situation is the use of natural cosmetics and folk remedies, as well as active prevention of wrinkles from the age of twenty.

How to remove wrinkles around the eyes - moisturizing.
Folk remedies based on herbal supplements are excellent helpers in skin care. Among them, aloe and essential oils have active moisturizing properties. Aloe, for example, is excellent at combating dry skin in the sensitive area around the eyes. To eliminate wrinkles, it is recommended to apply the juice of this plant to the area around the eyes every night at night, avoiding contact with the mucous membrane. If you don’t have this plant at home, you can purchase it ready-made in the form of a gel, which will contain at least 98% of the juice of this medicinal flower, and use it in the same way.

According to traditional medicine recipes, essential oils of peach, almond and apricot serve as excellent moisturizers that fight wrinkles around the eyes. A few drops of any of the listed oils should be driven into the area under the eyes, as if with the pads of your fingers. By the way, you can use natural butter in the same way. It perfectly smooths out crow's feet.

A wonderful method of combating such wrinkles is a homemade cream that you can make yourself. It is necessary to mix a tablespoon of vitamin E oil solution with the same amount of cocoa butter and sea buckthorn oil. This nourishing cream must be applied in a thick layer to the upper and lower eyelids, secured on top in the area of ​​the outer corner of the eyes with small pieces of parchment paper. Leave this mask on for fifteen minutes, after which soak the remaining cream with a napkin. There is no way to rub it. You need to make this mask twice a week, preferably two hours before bedtime.

Olive oil is also good for getting rid of wrinkles around the eyes. It is used as a compress, after which you need to lightly massage the skin of the eyelids and the area under the eyes. This herbal product is also effective when added to various masks. In particular, “drive” a mixture of 50 ml of oil and 10 ml of vitamin E oil solution into the area around the eyes with lightly patting movements with the pads of your fingers. After this, you need to wait about five minutes and remove the remaining mixture by blotting with a napkin. This mask can be done every day, preferably at night. To prevent the appearance of wrinkles, it is effective to use a mixture of olive oil with a few drops of lemon juice in the form of a mask. Apply the mixture to the skin and leave for ten minutes, after which blot off any remaining residue with a paper towel.

Prevention of wrinkles around the eyes.
To delay the appearance of wrinkles, you need to learn how to properly care for your skin, and you need to start doing this as early as possible. In particular, you should start caring for your eyelid skin from the age of twenty. In care you should use only high-quality care complexes and decorative cosmetics. Moreover, when choosing cosmetics for the skin around the eyes, you should focus not on skin type, but on age. For mature skin, concentrated preparations are recommended based on active substances that accelerate skin regeneration, the production of collagen and elastin, and normalize the content of lipids and glycans (what fills the space between collagen fibers). And for young skin you can only use cosmetics with plant and fruit extracts.

You should not neglect folk remedies, because they serve as excellent prevention of wrinkles, thanks to natural ingredients.

It is very important to pay attention to your facial expressions, because squinting is often one of the main reasons for the early appearance of wrinkles around the eyes, since regular exercise contributes to faster wear of collagen fibers. Forget about rubbing your eyes! This childhood habit should be eliminated as quickly as possible, just like propping your face with your fist.

A nutritious and balanced diet plays an important role in the health and preservation of youthful skin. Over the years, the natural process of collagen production decreases significantly. Replenishment of its losses must occur through chemicals entering the body with food. Include more vegetables in your diet that contain carotene (carrots, spinach), eat more fruits, especially red ones, drink natural fruit and vegetable juices (carrots).

To prevent wrinkles around the eyes, it is advisable to wear high-quality sunglasses when in the open sun, regardless of the time of year. If you are nearsighted, it is worth purchasing contact lenses or glasses.

In order to increase blood circulation, it is recommended to self-massage the area around the eyes daily with light patting movements. It must be carried out after morning cosmetic procedures and application of cream. All movements must be performed strictly along the massage lines with the pads of the third and fourth fingers. If you already have deep wrinkles, then in addition to self-massage, once a week you need to get a massage in a beauty salon.

It is effective to use homemade anti-wrinkle cream based on camphor oil. To prepare it, mix 50 ml of unsalted fat (lard), previously melted in a water bath, with the same amount of camphor oil and pour into a jar. Use this cream twice a week at night.

Wrinkles around the eyes very often appear due to the incorrect position of our head during sleep. You should not use a pillow that is too high for sleeping, as it disrupts the venous outflow in the skin of the eyelids and contributes to the appearance of bags. Sleeping on your stomach with your face buried in the pillow is a very bad habit. Sleeping in this position leads to the early appearance of crow's feet. It is best to use a bolster or a flat pillow for sleeping, and the position should be either on your back or on your side.

Very important too. So that your sleep is complete. That is, you and I need at least eight hours to feel normal. The room in which you sleep must be well ventilated. In addition, it is desirable that there are no sources of electromagnetic radiation (computer, cell phone, TV, etc.). Chronic lack of sleep negatively affects the condition of the skin around the eyes.

Useful tips for maintaining youthful skin around the eyes.

  1. For washing, use only cool, clean drinking water; you can use melt water (not from the tap or boiled!). This water will improve blood circulation. You can use cosmetic ice.
  2. The cream should be applied to the area around the eyes in small portions, distributing it in dotted strokes using the pads of the ring fingers (since the ring fingers are less developed, they will not be able to deform the skin).
  3. You should apply nourishing creams or gels in the morning, and cosmetics with a lifting effect in the evening. Otherwise, you may get severe swelling.
  4. Never use face cream on your eyelids.
  5. Be sure to use skincare products with a sun protection factor.
