Collagen Eye Mask

Every woman wants to stay young and beautiful as long as possible, but age-related skin changes inexorably change our face. Collagen is one of the most important components of the skin, which makes it smooth and elastic. The main age problems are connected with it - its quantity, which the body produces, decreases with age. However, the beauty industry is constantly creating tools to replenish the balance of the skin and preserve its original appearance.

The first wrinkles, as a rule, appear around the eyes - these are the “crow's feet” that can begin to spoil the life of a woman rather early. Already at the age of about 25 years, many women face this problem and try to fix it. It is especially relevant for megacities, where various environmental and social factors affect our health and appearance not in the best way.

The mask for the skin around the eyes has a number of features. If you use face masks, you know that most of them are not intended for the delicate skin of the eyes and lips, therefore the safest components are selected for such products. Since the process of collagen penetration into the skin is very difficult, substances are added to it that guarantee the delivery of the required dose to the epidermis. These include plant extracts, acids and more. Some of them - for example, hyaluronic acid - are well known to everyone who is interested in cosmetic innovations.

Since skin cells originate and develop in the deeper layers, no cosmetic means can change them outside.

There are a number of different collagen masks. First of all, these are saloon masks, which are included in the price list of many beauty salons of large and not only cities. Professional masks that are used there, as a rule, allow to achieve a long-term effect without any extra effort.

But you can use and masks for home use, especially since they do not require any sophisticated equipment or specific skills - everything is extremely simple. But the effect from them is not always the one that is expected, and here it is necessary to carefully approach the choice of the type of mask and its manufacturer. The quality and composition depends on how fast the visible effect will be.

An alternative to animal collagen is vegetable. It is mined during the processing of cereals. Penetrating to a much greater depth, this collagen gives a faster result.

Perhaps the most effective estimated by many women is collagen extracted from the skin of deep-sea fish or from seaweed. This source is especially popular among Asian manufacturers, but it is necessary to choose and use such products with extreme caution if there is a predisposition to allergy to seafood. There is one more disadvantage of such masks - their cost, as a rule, it exceeds the cost of analogues with vegetable collagen.

In addition, you should pay attention to the achievement of modern nanocosmetology - a mask with biogold. They do not require a long course and, as a rule, give a very quick effect.

At the moment, the cosmetic market has no lack of choice of such masks for delicate skin. Among the Chinese manufacturers can be identified Dizao, Imeten, Eye Patch, Vilenta, "Pharaoh's Baths". Among Korean companies that have already shown themselves to be excellent manufacturers of various eye care products, Purederm and Pilaten. Among the European especially proven Beauty Med, Via Beauty, Gold Crystal and Skinlite. And in the US in this area leads Beauty Style.

1. First of all, before applying the mask on the skin around the eyes, it is necessary to clean the skin from dirt, cosmetics, etc. It is better to use for this purpose not a standard means, but a special one for eyelids - as a rule, it also contains active substances designed to improve the condition of delicate skin.
2. As a rule, collagen eye masks are sold in a ready-made form - in the form of circles or “peanuts”, which are called “patch”. All that is required is to get the blanks from the sealed package and attach it to the face. Under the action of body temperature, the mask begins to dissolve and the substances contained in it penetrate the skin.
3. Be sure to read the recommendations - the application process may vary from different manufacturers. Especially pay attention to the amount of time that the mask should be kept on the face - too long use can adversely affect the skin. Typically, the time of application of the mask is 20-30 minutes.
4. After using the mask, be sure to apply a cream or a special serum on the skin.. A number of brands release them in the same line with masks.

If you spend a lot of time at the computer, often read, or other work requires constant eye strain, use a collagen mask in two-week courses every six months. But at the same time you should not use it every day - intervals of 2-3 days are necessary. In moderate mode, you can use it to maintain skin tone once a week.

However, do not use it every day, otherwise you may experience unpleasant dryness and burning sensation on the skin. In addition, be sure to stop using the mask and consult a dermatologist if an allergic reaction has occurred.
