Why the eye contour ages faster and how you can prevent it
The eye contour is one of the thinnest and most vulnerable areas of the face. Its fragility makes it especially prone to bags, dark circles, crow's feet, and dehydration. Therefore, it is key to adopt good hygiene along with cosmetic care that slows aging and provides firmness.
Tips to prevent wrinkles around the eyes
1. Hydrate yourself from the inside
We never tire of repeating that to address the beauty of your skin in general, and the eye area in particular, it's necessary to maintain an optimal level of hydration in your body. We remind you that approximately 65% of our body is water . Don't let your guard down on this point and make sure to drink between 1.5 and 2 liters of water a day .
If you struggle with drinking, try this super hydrating drink : celery, lemon, spinach, and cucumber . In addition to cleansing your body, it will provide you with a significant amount of vitamins, minerals, and other vital substances .
2. Take care of your diet and focus on antioxidants
We already know how difficult it can be on a daily basis. Work, outings with friends, events, parties... Too many temptations! However, it's key that you try to follow the golden rule every day: 5 fruits and vegetables a day and plenty of antioxidant foods (apples, strawberries, almonds, etc.), which are essential for good cell regeneration and, therefore, for maintaining your skin's elasticity .
3. Always protect yourself from the sun
Its natural fragility makes it much more sensitive to UV damage and other external aggressions. In fact, the sun is the number one cause of aging . So, wear sunglasses and never forget your sunscreen .
4. Get enough sleep and rest well
It makes sense! Getting a good night's sleep has a huge impact on your eye area. Conversely, sleeping too little or poorly can ruin it. Try to get the right amount of sleep and get it truly restorative . Want a trick ? Lie on your back with your head slightly elevated, and apply chamomile compresses made with ice water, or some cool cucumber slices , to both eyes.
How to stop the aging of the eye contour?
1. Start taking care of it from the age of 25
The sooner we care for our eye area, the better it will withstand the passage of time and stay youthful longer . Therefore, it's a mistake to start treating it when the first wrinkles have appeared. Age 25 and older is a good age. 
2. Clean and remove makeup thoroughly from the area daily.
We'll never tire of telling you how important cleansing is. It's an absolutely essential and necessary step in your cosmetic routine. When you wake up , your eyes seem puffy and your wrinkles seem more pronounced . Nothing better than a good cleanse with fresh water to wake up your skin and tone your eyes . Choose a gentle yet effective cleanser that respects your skin's pH as much as possible. OhMyKoko 's Exfoliating Renewing Cleansing Gel is ideal. It cleanses, removes makeup, and exfoliates your skin, leaving it so soft and fresh that you'll notice an immediate feeling of well-being. Ideal if you're looking for a cleanse that doesn't dry out and prepares your skin to absorb the best of the treatment.
3. Apply a suitable serum every day
After cleansing, apply the serum, a true beauty treatment for your eyes. Our natural eye serum with hyaluronic acid and rambutan, suitable for sensitive skin, deeply hydrates, brightens the eyes, and combats the main signs of fatigue and aging.

👉 Hyaluronic acid, rambutan , and antioxidant plant extracts are great allies. They hydrate, decongest, and reduce dark under-eye circles.
