Have you ever noticed how your eyes, owing to bags, dark circles, and puffiness, give you away the next day after a long night? Or that crow's feet and fine wrinkles behind the eyes are some of the earliest symptoms of ageing? That isn't by chance.

The skin around your eye is different from the rest of your face. It's thinner and  dry because the eye area has almost no oil glands, making it more susceptible to dryness. Skin that is thin and fragile is more reactive. It's normal for the eye region to get irritated when exposed to particular products or ingredients, even if you don't have sensitive skin elsewhere. It's the first part of the body to show signs of aging. To maintain that delicate region looking its best, it takes extra attention.

Eye creams are designed to help and not damage the sensitive skin around the eyes by delivering hydration and just the correct quantity of particular ingredients. Regular moisturizers may contain ingredients that are beneficial to the rest of your face, but they are just too concentrated for the eye region.
