The Amount Of Eye Cream To Use

When you’re using eye creams of various sorts it becomes tempting and a habit for some to use quite a lot around the eyes feeling that more cream will mean less lines but it can infact have the opposite effect of what you hope for if you use too much cream during each application.

Because the skin around our eyes is thinner and quite sensitive it can mean that excess cream build up around this area can infact emphasize and exaggerate the depth of the visible lines because too much cream builds up a surface that wont be absorbed properly and in turn because you see what appears to be even deeper lines you begin to use even more of the product that you’re using, only to worsen the situation.

Ideally an amount the size of a grain of rice or just slightly more is ample for each eye, it can be tempting to use more but this amount really should be enough as it’s a much smaller area to cover.

Less is more when it comes to eye creams, as long as you apply it often enough and do what else you can do lessen those eye lines, like getting enough sleep and not pulling on the skin can both help.
