Do you really need an eye cream?
Posted November 14, 2023
There are varying opinions about this online, but at Kosmea, the answer is yes!
The skin around your eyes needs a little more care. Adding an eye cream to your skincare routine will help to maintain the quality of this delicate area and the best time to start using one is before you need it to preserve the skin’s resilience.
Can you use a facial cream around the eyes?
You can use a facial cream for your eyes but there are a few good reasons to use a specially formulated cream for this sensitive area:
- The skin around the eyes is thinner and more delicate than the skin on your face and therefore normal facial creams may cause irritation, redness or itchiness.
- The eyes are vulnerable to sun damage, environmental pollution and other factors that affect the skin’s quality.
- The muscles around the eyes are active and constantly working out – squinting, smiling, widening, frowning – to form your natural expressions in response to the world around you.
We’ve created a specially formulated product for the eyes which includes a blend of our Certified Organic Rosehip Oil and white tea extract, and PhytoCellTec™, a clinically studied derivative from the stem cells of the rare Swiss apple and which has been shown to combat signs of chronological ageing.
Been shown to combat the signs of chronological ageing
Kosmea’s Apple of My Eye™ Cream was the Winner of Best Eye Cream in Nature & Health Natural Beauty Awards 2014.
PhytoCellTec™ in Apple of My Eye™ Cream is known to:
- Visibly brighten dark circles under the eyes.
- Smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Reduce the visible signs of ageing.
- Protect longevity of skin stem cells.
How to use our eye cream
We’ve developed a purpose-made pump applicator which is easy to use and gives you the exact amount of cream in one motion. To dispense the cream, hold your thumb on the tip of the pump and press down halfway. This gives you a very small amount which is enough for the eyes, and then gently pat on the skin around your eyes using your ring finger. Use the Apple of My Eye Cream™ morning and night on clean, dry skin.
