Find Out the Benefits of Using an Eye Cream vs. an Eye Serum, or Both!
The desire to use a separate skin care product under and around the eye area begins to feel more urgent as we get older and start noticing changes in this delicate skin. But you may be wondering what to apply, an eye cream or an eye serum, or wondering if you’re at the right age to use these more intensive products.
In many cases, these two products offer similar benefits; the main difference is texture. Let’s explore some key differences, though. And don’t worry, you’re never too young or old to take extra special care of the skin around your eyes.
An Eye Serum Anyone Can Use
Lightweight and concentrated, eye serums glide on easily and typically work well for most skin types. The best products feature simple, science-backed ingredients known for supporting moisture levels in the skin, such as hyaluronic acid and EGF growth factor from plants. Everyone can benefit from skin that appears more hydrated. A fast-absorbing, daily under-eye serum should feel lightweight to wear, and may be all you need to help improve the look of firmness and address early visible signs of aging.
An eye serum with plant-based EGF* may target the appearance of:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Crow’s feet
- Puffiness
- Crepiness
- Loss of firmness
*What is plant-based EGF? Epidermal Growth Factor, produced in plants such as barley, is a moisture-binding signaling protein that supports the skin’s moisture balance for a complexion that appears smoother, plumper, and visibly healthier. Epidermal Growth Factor in skincare can be produced using innovative plant biotechnology.
An Eye Cream for a Richer Experience
Eye creams can still be lightweight, but their consistency and ingredient list may give them a richer feel. Peptide-rich ingredients, caffeine, antioxidants, and ceramides may be some of the featured ingredients in a high-performance under-eye cream, perfect for dry, mature skin.
An eye cream with plant-based EGF may target the appearance of:
- Deeper wrinkles, fine lines
- Crow’s feet and dark circles
- Loss of firmness
- Dryness and dehydration
- Uneven tone and texture
- Signs of a tired skin barrier
For your plant-based EGF skin care routine, you may need an eye cream or an eye serum. You may even want to apply an eye cream over your under-eye serum for visible, age-defying results. Ultimately, you need to craft your skin care routine with your goals and your skin’s needs in mind.
