Afternoon beauty fix: Fear crow’s feet around your eyes? We have a fix for you!
I am plagued by the onset of wrinkles around my eyes. I always wear sunscreen, sleep well, and drink lots of water. What gives? Not only are your eyes a window to your soul, they’re also the best indicator of the effects that external and environmental factors have on your skin. Because the area surrounding your eyes is so fine and delicate, it’s more vulnerable to the wrath of toxins, free radicals, and sun damage—which, if left undefended, result in crow’s feet and loose skin.
Daily use of an eye cream with antioxidant properties is your best defence against free radicals and fine lines. And, if puffiness is a problem, ensure your aid has hydrating qualities. Elizabeth Arden Prevage Eye Advanced Anti-Aging serum ($120 at department stores) contains an ingredient called “idebenone,” an especially potent antioxidant to prevent and correct premature, yet grossly auspicious, signs of aging. Its mixture of water, sea algae and silicones will assist in keeping your delicate skin hydrated and smooth throughout the day and well into the future.
