The skin around your eyes is the first place to show tiredness, stress, and aging. Dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines are extremely common but each has a different cause.
Understanding what’s happening under your eyes is the first step to treating it correctly.
Why Is the Eye Area Different?
Much thinner than the rest of your face
Lower in oil glands
Constantly moving (blinking, smiling, squinting)
More sensitive to dehydration
Because it’s delicate, it loses moisture faster and shows signs of stress earlier.
Common Eye Concerns
Dark circles
Puffiness
Fine lines
Crepey texture
Under-eye hollowness
What Causes Dark Circles?
Dark circles can appear due to poor circulation, pigmentation, thin skin, fatigue, or genetics.
What Causes Puffiness?
Puffiness is often caused by fluid retention.
Lack of sleep
High salt intake
Allergies
Hormonal changes
Crying
What Causes Fine Lines Around the Eyes?
Fine lines develop because the area is thin, loses hydration quickly, and experiences collagen decline and sun damage.
