Eye creams are rapidly becoming a vital part of every man's grooming routine, helping to reduce the appearance of heavy 'bags,' fine lines and dark circles are just some of the many benefits. There is lots of speculation as to the correct procedure to follow when applying your eye cream. To avoid confusion and prevent a mis-adventure, we've developed a Grooming Guide which will guide you through the correct use of your eye cream and help you keep your surveillance gear looking younger.
- Step 1
Keep it cool - storing your eye cream somewhere cool will accelerate its performance ten-fold. Maximising the firming qualities and aiding the reduction of puffiness.
- Step 2
Less is more - yeah, that olde chestnut. Use a tiny amount of your formula to prevent further damage. Using to much product can have the opposite effect, leaving the residual cream sitting under the surface of the skin thus enhancing the appearance of bags.
- Step 3
The application - hold your hands out flat, palms down. Number your fingers 1 - 10 from left - right. Fingers 2 and 9 are the ones you should be using to apply your eye cream. To apply, dab a tiny bit on each finger tip and 'pat' around the eye area, following the contour of the eye socket. Don't rub it in, allow it to soak at its own pace. Apply before your moisturiser.
- Step 4
Repeat the above 3 steps 2-3 times per week. Eye creams are not (usually) required more frequently than this.
