More ingredients for your eye creams
To continue the discussion on the last post, here are some more ingredients that are helpful in treating dark circles and shadows under your eyes:
DMAE
Is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies and is also present in fish. It has been found to provide firmness to sagging skin.
Ellagic Acid
Anti oxidant rich ellagic acid is found in raspberries, cranberries, pomegranates etc. Pomegranate in particular is being studied for it’s effectiveness on aging skin. It is believed to have the ability to achieve moderate thickening of the epidermis, improve elasticity and collagen.
Green Tea
While this antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredient needs more research, studies have shown that green tea has some ability to provide sun protection. It is being used in more products all the time. It shows promise as a natural way to slow the effects of aging and is quickly becoming one of the most popular of the anti aging ingredients.
Hyaluronic Acid
This natural ingredient is very important for helping our skin hold more water and some studies show it may help to stimulate the growth of healthy skin cells. Hydrated skin is smoother, softer and plumper looking.
There are still more to come but in the meantime, leave a comment to let me know if you found this information helpful.
