Under-eye bags : Causes, care, best creams and skincare

Le borse sono rigonfiamenti della zona inferiore dell’occhio dovute ad eccesso di liquidi e tessuto adiposo, che possono peggiorare dopo aver consumato pasti salati o al mattino.

Causes

The likely cause of your under-eye bags is hereditary: inherited factors include blood pooling, the development of so-called edema, the bone structure and ligaments of the central facial and eyelid area.

But also be mindful of bad habits! Factors like lack of sleep, stress, eye rubbing, alcohol, smoking, or excessive unprotected sun exposure can contribute to the appearance of under-eye bags or make them worse.

Substances to Use

For treating under-eye bags, choose substances microcirculation-boosting active ingredients with vasoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects: flavonoids (found in ingredients like Crisina, Butcher's Broom extract, centella, arnica, horse chestnut, witch hazel, and ginseng), caffeine, escin, and peptides (Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3).

Also substances decongestant are very helpful because they help eliminate excess fluid. These are often formulations that can be stored in the refrigerator for an even more noticeable effect (remember the movie scenes with fresh cucumber slices on the eyes?). These include: chamomile extract, calendula, eyebright, licorice, escin, and peptides (Dipeptide-2).

Useful Tips

If you struggle with under-eye bags, try sleeping with an extra pillow under your head and do upward massages when applying your Eye Contour Gel: this will help improve excess fluid pooling.

How to Prevent Under-Eye Bags

Preventing under-eye bags requires a healthy lifestyle, which includes a balanced diet, moderate regular exercise, and sufficient rest, an average of at least eight hours per night.

It’s always a good idea to avoid prolonged sun exposure and, in any case, to always wear sunglasses to prevent premature aging of the eyelid skin.

Unfortunately, in more severe cases, you may need to turn to cosmetic medicine or surgery.

Eye Contour Gel

The Eye Contour Gel is five times thinner than the rest of the face: that’s why it’s immediately noticeable when it looks tired or needs some care. Here you’ll find creams and gels formulated to hydrate, reduce under-eye puffiness and dark circles, and smooth fine lines, leaving your gaze feeling fresh and radiant.
