🥇About Eye Serums:🥇
🎗Eye serums are much like face serums, but targeting the eye area, and meant to be followed up with an eye cream
🎗Because the skin around the eyes is especially delicate and thin, eye serums are usually formulated differently than face serums to be applied specifically to the eye area
🎗Different eye serums can have different functionalities, including (but not limited to):
- acting as a base for the eye cream (to decrease amount of cream used or ease the application of the cream),
- adding a further layer of moisture for the undereye area,
- targeting specific concerns, such as fine lines, puffiness, and dark circles
💁🏻♀️How I Use: Day vs. Night💁🏻♀️
💅🏻I like to use different eye serums, one for the daytime routine, and one for the nighttime routine
💅🏻During the daytime, I use an eye serum mainly to boost the moisture and plumpness of my undereye, so 1) makeup can go on top smoothly, and 2) it stays hydrated during the day.
💅🏻A product like the Shiseido Ultimune Eye Power Infusing Concentrate is perfect for the day because it is:
- super lightweight and refreshing
- very moisturizing and helps the skin around the eye fortify and defend itself
- works well with the eye cream for makeup to go on top
💅🏻During my nighttime routine, I like to use an eye serum that targets my specific eye-area concerns, so the effects can be maximized (during nighttime, which is the skin’s natural repair time).
💅🏻A product like the Murad Retinol Youth Renewal Eye Serum is ideal for my situation because it is:
- a bit thicker in texture
- targeting specific issues, in this case, fine lines around the eyes
- facilitates the eye cream that goes on top and works well in maximizing its effect
