The skin around the eyes is much thinner than on the face and therefore requires more delicate care. It must be remembered that before starting any procedures, the skin, including around the eyes, must be thoroughly cleansed.
Instructions
Step 1
To prevent the skin around the eyes from drying out prematurely, you must first of all lead a healthy lifestyle. Stop smoking, stay out of the sun or wear sunglasses.
Step 2
Moisturize thoroughly morning and evening, but never stretch it with your fingers. Apply all creams and masks with a tapping motion.
Step 3
In the morning, rub the skin around your eyes with an ice cube. You can use frozen herbal teas.
Step 4
Prepare an eyelid lotion. Take one tablespoon each of dried mint leaves and linden blossom. Insist in a thermos this mixture, filled with a glass of boiling water. Strain, then place in bottle. With this lotion, wipe the skin of the eyelids in the morning and evening.
Step 5
Make a linden blossom lotion. To prepare it in a glass of boiling water, insist a tablespoon of lime blossom and, moistening cotton pads in a warm broth, apply to your eyes.
Step 6
Apply contrasting chamomile compresses. First, steam two tablespoons of chamomile flowers in a glass of hot water and simmer for ten minutes. Then pour half of the solution into a thermos, leave the other to cool. Dampen cotton pads with warm broth and place them over your eyes. After half a minute, change the discs to those moistened with cold broth. This change of compresses must be done up to six times, and completed with cold compresses.
Step 7
Take a course in bread masks. To do this, place the crumb of white bread in milk until it is completely soaked. Apply the mixture to your eyes using a gauze pad. It is necessary to hold the mask for fifteen minutes, and to do the mask once every two days for a month.
Step 8
Try a flour mask. To prepare it, mix a spoonful of honey, preheating it so that it becomes liquid, with a spoonful of wheat flour. In a separate bowl, beat the egg white and add to the honey mixture. Apply the mask to the eye area and hold until the mixture dries.
Step 9
Make a homemade moisturizer. Mash the raw egg yolk thoroughly with a tablespoon of butter. Thoroughly chop dried rose or rosehip petals. Add to the oil mixture and mix very well. Use this cream at night. But remember that it can only be stored in the refrigerator and no more than a week.
