If you’re looking to protect and rejuvenate the skin around your eyes, here’s everything you need to know about eye care skincare and how to keep your eyes looking bright, healthy, and refreshed.
The Ultimate Guide to Eye Care in Your Skincare Routine
When it comes to skincare, we often focus on the face, body, and even our hands, but the delicate area around our eyes can sometimes be overlooked.. Yet, the delicate skin around our eyes is one of the first areas to show signs of ageing and fatigue.
At The Skin Pharmacy, we believe that a well-rounded skincare routine isn’t complete without proper eye care. Let’s dive into the topic of eye care in your daily routine.
Why is eye care so important?
The skin around our eyes is thinner and more fragile than the rest of our face. As a result, factors like lack of sleep, sun exposure, and pollution can contribute to and accelerate ageing in this area, leading to puffiness, wrinkles, dullness, and dark circles. This is precisely why investing in the right eye care products is essential for maintaining a youthful and refreshed appearance.
Some Common Concerns Related to Eye Care
These includes:
- Dark Circles: Often caused by lack of sleep, genetics, or thinning skin that exposes blood vessels underneath.
- Puffy Eyes: Caused by fluid retention, allergies, or stress, leading to swelling around the eyes.
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Due to the loss of collagen and elastin with ageing, fine lines and wrinkles often appear first around the eyes.
- Milia Seeds (Oil seeds): Using heavy or rich skincare products, lack of proper exfoliation or residual makeup can be a contributor.

- Apply a Toner – Hydrate your skin and prepare it for better absorption of products.
- Use an Eye Serum – Apply one drop of serum to the lower eye area and gently pat (never rub!), use twice daily, and suggested use of 6-8 weeks.
- Follow with an Eye Gel – Apply a small amount around the eye area twice daily.
- Moisturise & Protect – Finish your routine with a face moisturiser and SPF to keep your skin healthy and youthful.
Some Lifestyle Tips for Healthy Eyes
In addition to using the right skincare products, adopting healthy habits can make a significant difference in the appearance of your eyes too! Here’s how:
- Get Enough Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night to allow your body to repair and refresh itself. Lack of sleep can exacerbate dark circles and puffiness.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated. Dehydration can cause the skin around your eyes to look dull and tired.
- Eat a Balanced Diet: A nutrient-rich diet, rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and healthy fats, can help support the skin’s overall health. Include foods like leafy greens, berries, and omega-3-rich fish for skin-boosting nutrients.
