Our eyes are the windows to our soul.
Yet, I am thankful that the outward appearance of our eyes—dark circles, sagging lids, wrinkles and crow's feet—are not representative of
the presence anything less than the goodness in the very depths of us. For me
keeping the signs of ageing and dryness at bay has been a challenge for the
last two decades as using anything as ‘heavy’ as a lotion can leave me with little
bumps popping up around the eyes, and gels do not seem to do anything for me.
That leaves me with just eye serums, which sometimes cause milia seeds to surface around my eyes. What I find really difficult to conceal or eradicate are dark eye
circles, possibly caused by allergy, sinusitis or lack of sleep, for which I haven’t found a
solution.
REVIEW
However recently, I’ve tried a new eye cream by SK-II, the LXP
Ultimate Perfecting Eye Cream. The latest addition to SK-II family of skincare (in Singapore) with the highest concentration of active ingredients.
I’ve used this cream for two months. Although the word ‘cream’ should
cause me keep it a mile away from me, I find that it’s not too rich for my dry
skin. I do have one or two tiny milla seeds popping up on my upper lid, but it’s
not too bad compared with other eye products I've tried before.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
SK-II LXP Ultimate Perfecting Eye Cream is Infused with a
new antioxidant-rich Lychee Extract, which works with Pitera and Rice Oligo
Peptide in the cream to energise skin and boost skin regeneration, preserve
skin collagen and revive protein creation in as early as three days, as indicated
in the press release. Lychee is found to have one of the highest concentration
of polyphenols to protect skin and reverse UV stress like photo-ageing. With daily
use, the cream is said to help maintain skin resiliency and help achieve clear skin and improve skin radiance around eyes.
SKII Massage Tip
11.
Using ball of thumbs, massage skin near the corner
of eyes five times in circular motion.
2.
With ring finger, gently massage skin in the
direction of lymph nodes.
33.
Gently press six points along the edge of eye
socket (the bony bits around eye ball) to relax tension of orbital muscle and
promote circulation.
44.
Place a warm towel not hotter than 40°C over
closed eyes for 10-minutes. To further improve circulation on eye area, move eye
balls in circular motion while towel sits over eyes. This exercise helps to
relax the muscles of eye balls as well.
