Dark circles under my eyes are getting darker.... This has been a problem for me lately. I've been worried about the dark circles around my eyes lately. These are just a few of the concerns that are increasingly being discussed around the eyes.
There are multiple problems around the eyes. In addition, with the increased focus on eye makeup and the increase in the number of online events and the increase in time spent using computers and smartphones, it seems that the eye area is under more strain than before.
The eye area is one of the parts that easily shows age. Now is the time when the eyes are the focus of attention, so careful eye care is necessary.
Causes of problems around the eyes
The skin around the eyes is very thin, especially in the face. Not only is it vulnerable to dryness, but you can easily imagine that if you rub the eye area a little, it might wrinkle.
Sagging, dark circles, and fine wrinkles are the most common problems around the eyes. What are the possible causes of each?
The cause of sagging is muscle weakness
Sagging under the eyes is thought to be caused by loss of muscle strength and skin elasticity.
The muscles around the eyes also weaken due to eye fatigue. In some cases, tiredness of the eyes also causes poor blood flow, which prevents nutrients and waste products from being transported, leading to sagging. Be conscious of promoting blood flow by exercising the muscles around the eyes and pressing pressure points.
Lack of moisture is the cause of fine lines and wrinkles
The cause of fine lines and wrinkles that tend to form around the eyes is lack of moisture! Fine lines and wrinkles are created by dryness.
It is also possible that the collagen and elastin inside the skin are damaged, resulting in deep wrinkles. Collagen and elastin are damaged by the sun, so UV protection is important.
Causes of wrinkles vary by type
There are different types of dark circles: blue dark circles caused by poor blood circulation, brown dark circles caused by pigmentation, and dark circles caused by sagging with age.
The first thing to do is to understand the cause of your dark circles. Pigmentation is caused by rubbing your eyes, so this is an area that you should be careful about when removing eye makeup.
Review your routine and your skincare routine!
As you can see, it is important to know the cause of your eye problems and to review your normal skin care and lifestyle before using special items as eye care.
Are you scrubbing off your eye makeup?

Are you staring at your PC or smartphone too much without taking a break?
No matter how much special care you take, if you repeatedly do things in your daily life that put a strain on the eye area, you will have plus or minus zero. Let's reduce the strain on your eyes, while at the same time regaining your confidence in them by incorporating special eye care items!
Three recommended eye care creams
As I mentioned at the beginning, there are multiple problems mixed in around the eyes. In addition to sagging and wrinkles, there are a variety of other issues such as puffiness and the need for firmness around the eyes. As a result, eye care products are becoming more and more fragmented.
When choosing an eye care product, it is of course important to select one based on the problems around the eyes, but it is also easier to continue using the product if you consider whether you like the ease of use and the feel of the product.
Let's take a look at three items that I recommend.
Lancôme Génifique Advanced Eye Cream
Based on the discovery that the area around the eyes contains a unique skin-beautifying bacteria*, this eye cream contains the same ingredients as the popular serum "Genifique Advanced N".
Dior Capture Total Cell ENGY Eye Serum
The applicator type of this cream allows you to apply it quickly with one hand. The applicator part moves flexibly, making it easy to massage, and the cool texture, combined with the massaging effect, helps to reduce puffiness around the eyes. 92%* of the product is made of naturally derived ingredients, and it does not feel sticky, giving it a smooth feel.
POLAB.A Eye Zone Cream
Focusing on the characteristics of the eye area structure, this cream advocates the theory that the eye area can be revitalized by moisture and firmness.
As the theory goes, the rich and thick texture of the cream not only moisturizes the eye area, but also gives an amazing feeling of firmness immediately after application. Because it is so thick, it is perfect for those who prefer a more moisturized finish.
Continuing to care for the eye area is key!
We use the area around our eyes more than we think we do. "We use our eyes more than we think, and as the saying goes, "the eyes speak louder than the mouth. It's important to review your daily care routine to keep your eyes looking vibrant.
