Our focus is drawn to the eyes – that critical area where the first signs of skin aging tend to emerge. The naturally fragile and delicate skin around the eyes is particularly prone to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles, capturing our keen attention.
To address these issues effectively, eye serums are delicately formulated to effortlessly infuse the skin, providing a powerful blend of advanced ingredients for maximum impact, delivering immediate results while also delivering long-term benefits. The demand for these innovative products continues to rise as they target key eye concerns like fine lines, puffiness, and dark circles, driving ongoing advancements in the category.
In recent years, a standout product in this category has undoubtedly been La Prairie’s Skin Caviar Eye Lift, a brand known for its Swiss heritage. To the delight of its loyal fans, including the beauty team, this formula has been reinvented with new powerful ingredients that elevate its efficacy in lifting, firming, and smoothing. This revitalized version not only targets the outer corners of the eyes but also addresses areas such as the upper eyelids, brows, and beyond, offering a comprehensive and innovative approach to enhancing plumpness and contouring.
Similar to the original version, the Skin Caviar Eye Lift 2.0 features a dual-chamber bottle design that enables the storage of two distinct formulas. One is housed in caviar beads while the other is in a cutting-edge tourmaline-pink gel-cream emulsion. This separation ensures the preservation of their purity. With just a single press of the pump, these two formulations merge seamlessly to form a luxurious, silky blend.
Within this formulation, the brand’s exclusive Caviar Infinite blend combines the enriching benefits of caviar proteins, oils, and other valuable components to fortify and enhance the integrity of skin ligament structures within the hypodermis. Additionally, the Caviar Micro-Nutrients contain a unique array of over 300 essential nutrients that actively engage with metabolic pathways in the skin, revitalizing and nourishing skin cells to promote overall rejuvenation and vitality.
“They work together to enhance the density of the skin’s dermal structure by revitalizing essential communication between ligaments and cells in the hypodermis. This leads to strengthened and denser skin ligaments, higher adipocyte (fat) count, resulting in increased volume in the hypodermal tissue. By taking a comprehensive approach that targets all layers of the skin, this formula elevates the upper eyelids and brows, firms the eye area, minimizes the appearance of lines and wrinkles, reduces under-eye puffiness, and reshapes eye contours for a rejuvenated look.”
What Is Eye Serum?
According to experts, eye serums are specialized skincare formulations designed with a lightweight texture for quick absorption into the delicate skin surrounding the eyes. These products are meticulously crafted to address specific eye concerns, boasting elevated levels of potent, water-soluble active ingredients tailored to combat various eye-related issues.
How to Apply Eye Serum
Unless stated otherwise, it is recommended to apply an eye serum twice a day to thoroughly cleansed skin. Due to the delicate nature of the skin around the eyes, it is advised to use your ring finger to gently tap and blend the eye serum.
“Begin at the inner corner of the eye and gently dab the serum along the eyelid crease, moving outward to the outer corner. Repeat this process along the orbital bone, temples, and under the eyes. Exercise caution as these eye serums pack powerful ingredients, so a little goes a long way. Avoid over-application to prevent any potential irritation to the delicate skin around your eyes.”
“The gentle dabbing motion creates a luxurious, uplifting sensation, infusing the morning or evening skincare routine with a delightful touch of indulgence.”
Layering Eye Serum and Cream
An eye serum should not be seen as a replacement for an eye cream; rather, they complement each other to deliver optimal results. According to our expert, “Eye creams have a richer texture compared to serums and offer more universal benefits.” A key role of eye creams is to nourish the skin by fortifying the skin barrier in the stratum corneum, ensuring that moisture is sealed in. Therefore, it is recommended to apply an eye cream, such as La Prairie’s Skin Caviar Luxe Eye Cream, on top of your serum to achieve maximum hydration.
