With a huge variety of anti-aging products to choose from in skin care, many consumers are left wondering what product to buy. When searching specifically for an eye cream there are a lot of considerations to take into account. What are your goals from this product? What ingredients are effective? Is the product’s price comparable to other products with similar actives?

Using only natural products in your anti-aging arsenal is very important. Many of the big skin care companies like to sneak in nasty little additives assuming the consumer will not notice. For years this was the case, but with the internet and education of the general consumer these days, people expect more from their skin care products. It use to be that having parabens and mineral oil in an eye or face cream was just fine, but now with modern science showing just how harmful these additives can be, consumers will just not tolerate it. People want to be able to read the back of a label and understand and feel comfortable with the ingredients featured. More consumers are becoming of the mind frame that if you would not eat it or put the substance in your body, then you definitely do not want to be putting it onto your skin daily. This is solid thinking as it is now clearly illustrated through countless scientific studies that what you put on your skin can easily pass into your blood stream.

Given that the skin around the eyes is some of the most delicate, a product that is designed specifically for this region is essential. The eye area is very unique and the skin in this region is very thin, delicate and susceptible to damage. A product has to be designed with all of this in mind to truly be effective around the eyes.

A good anti-aging eye cream should incorporate 2 different vital elements:

1. It should have wrinkle fighting active ingredients – This could be a variety of things including coenzyme Q10, antioxidants, retinol, vitamin C and peptides such as Dermaxyl, Matrixyl 3000, Haloxyl and Syn-tacks. These ingredients help reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the delicate skin directly beside and below the eyes. Peptides specifically can help produce collagen, hyaluronic acid and other vital molecules that the skin needs to stay healthy.

2. It should have anti-inflammatory/tightening ingredients – This includes a variety of different actives including vitamin K, and wheat protein. Peptides such as Regu-Age and Eyeliss are very effective an reducing dark circles, discoloration and swelling around the eyes by increasing micro-circulation and lymphatic drainage. Other natural ingredients such as buckwheat can help further reduce discoloration and inflammation.

If you find an all natural eye cream that incorporates both of these essentials, you should be happy with your purchase. The reduction in wrinkles and bags under the eyes can give someone the dramatic, youthful changing look they have been looking for, without the need for needles or surgery.
