Fall Skincare Tips
As soon as the weather starts to dip into colder temps, the first place where I see dehydration in my face is around my eyes. What was plump in the summer humidity now looks deflated in the colder months!
One of the most effective ways to restore hydration around the eyes is by using targeted eye products that deliver real results. With so many options available, it's essential to understand why you're choosing a particular product, how to apply it, and when to include it in your daily routine. My recommendations are below and are tailored to how involved you like your skincare routine to be!
For the skincare queens and kings who love simplicity:
If you were going to pick one eye product to use, it has to be ARCONA’s Eye Dew Plus. This powerhouse formulation checks all the boxes for your eye area needs. It helps to:
retain a small amount of moisture around the eye area (hello, plump eyes!)
brighten the under eyes
reduce fine lines and wrinkles
Application is everything! First, less is more. I take a very small amount (I’m talking about 1/2 a pump!), warm it up between my fingers, and press under my eyes. Next, it’s important to know that there is an iridescent quality to this product which is coming from the ingredient plant cholesterol, a key to help plump the eyes. If you use too much in the morning, you’ll feel like a unicorn (which hey, maybe that’s the look you’re going for!). Because of this, I suggest mastering the application at night before you begin to use it in the morning.
For the skincare-obsessed who love a multi-step routine:
If you are ready to add two eye products into your routine, I recommend ARCONA’s Eye Dew Plus and the Peptide Eye Serum. Peptides are amino acids that stimulate collagen in the skin. I love that the formulation of this product is lightweight yet it still penetrates deep into the skin's surface. If puffy morning eyes are a concern, then Peptide Eye Serum is for you! There are two ways to use these products together:
Use Eye Dew Plus at night and Peptide Eye Serum in the morning.
In the morning and evening, use Peptide Eye Serum first and then layer Eye Dew Plus over it.
For the overachievers who can’t get enough:
If you’re in this category then welcome to the skincare nerd club! I’ve found my people. :) To maximize your eye skincare, you’ll need ARCONA’s Eye Dew Plus, Peptide Eye Serum, and Eye Dew. Eye Dew is a version of Eye Dew Plus that is lighter weight. It’s not as finicky to apply and it works really well for morning application. With this dryness-crushing combination, your steps would be as follows:
In the evening, apply Peptide Eye Serum and layer with Eye Dew Plus.
In the morning, apply Peptide Eye Serum and layer Eye Dew.
Enjoy your hydrated de-puffed under eyes!
