The skin around the eyes is up to five times thinner than other areas of the face and lacks sebaceous glands, which makes it more easily dried out. Add to this the constant facial activity and lack of sleep, and it becomes a perfect target for wrinkles, dark circles and bags.

WHY DO CROW'S FEET APPEAR AROUND THE EYES?

Crow's feet are a natural expression of our experiences and facial expressions over time. Their direct causes are:

1. Repetitive muscle activity

Every smile, every gesture contributes to the constant movement around the eyes, causing fine lines and wrinkles over time.

2. Loss of collagen and elasticity

The loss of these structural proteins causes the skin to become more wrinkled.

3. Sun exposure

UV rays from the sun can damage the skin's collagen and elastin, compromising its ability to maintain firmness and prevent wrinkles.

4. Dehydration:

Dehydrated skin becomes rougher and less elastic, making fine lines more noticeable.

WHAT CAUSES DARK CIRCLES?

Dark circles can reveal a lot about our health and lifestyle . To tackle them effectively , it is crucial to understand the different types , from those caused by genetics to those triggered by stress and sun exposure .

Distinguishing between blue and brown dark circles is an essential step towards a solution. Blue dark circles are mostly the result of transparent skin and blood vessels under the eyes. On the other hand, brown dark circles are linked to increased melanin production . Below we will reveal some of its causes:

1. Genetics

Heredity can determine the pigmentation and structure of the skin, contributing to the appearance of dark circles. If your parents or close relatives have dark circles, you may experience them too.

2. Lack of Sleep

Restless nights can cause swelling and dilation of blood vessels under the eyes, intensifying dark circles. In addition, eye strain can also darken the skin around the eyes.

3. Aging

The loss of collagen and elastin that comes with age causes the skin around the eyes to become thinner, blood vessels to become more visible and, therefore, dark circles to appear as well.

4. Sun exposure

UV rays increase the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, which can accentuate the appearance of dark circles.

5. Fat loss under the eyes

Aging thins the skin and exposes blood vessels and bones, causing dark circles.

WHY DO BAGS APPEAR UNDER THE EYES?

Bags under the eyes have various causes that go beyond fatigue and aging . Below we reveal the most common causes.

1. Fluid retention

One of the most common causes of the formation of bags. Among its causes, excessive salt intake, alcohol consumption, or hormonal changes.

2. Aging and loss of elasticity

The loss of these structural proteins can lead to sagging skin around the eyes, accentuating bags.

3. Fat accumulation

The redistribution of facial fat caused by aging also contributes to the formation of bags.

4. Genetic Factors

If you have a family history of bags, you may have a genetic predisposition to developing them.

5. Sun exposure and pollution

Prolonged exposure to the sun without protection accelerates skin aging and loss of elasticity. The result is the appearance of bags, especially if combined with other factors.
