Eye Cream : What is it?
| An eye cream is a cosmetic product that helps maintain the elasticity of the skin under the eyes and on the eyelids, which are considered the most delicate areas on the face (and also the areas most prone to wrinkling). Some eye creams can also help reverse the signs of skin aging by firming and tightening the skin around the eyes.
Eye creams are similar to a facial moisturizers, but they are specially formulated to be extra-sensitive. Common ingredients include Cyclopentasiloxane, Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Dimethicone Copolyol, Disodium EDTA, Isopropyl Palmitate, Sodium PCA, Soy Protein, Sodium Citrate, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, and Benzophenone 4. |
