How to Choose the Proper Eye Cream or Serum for Your Needs

Know the capabilities of ingredients!

Sometimes, we expect more from our eye creams and serums than they are capable of giving us.  Does this mean the product was lacking somehow?  Of course, you can never rule that possibility out.  However, the real fault may be that you just bought an eye cream or serum without considering the purpose that you want it for first.

For example, if you have darkness under the eyes and hope to address that problem, then you need ingredients that can help in draining that pooled up blood causing it.  Ones that contain vitamin K or kojii acid can be up to the brightening task.

On the other hand, puffiness could be another issue.  Ingredients that can firm up the eye area are ones such as caffeine, copper, retinol, AHA, and vitamin C.  

Now that you are in the know, hopefully you’ll wake up with more beautiful eyes!
