Can you apply cream around the eyes?
Conclusion: No.
Creams are too nutritious and oily. The skin around the eyes is thinner than the skin on the face and has fewer collagen fibers, elastic fibers, etc. than the skin on the rest of the face, which cannot absorb skincare products that are too heavy with oil and tend to be lighter, so if you apply cream instead of eye cream around the eyes, it will easily cause some skin problems.
What happens if you apply cream around your eyes?
Occasionally, it is not a problem to apply it around the eyes, but if you use it as an eye cream for a long time, it is not good for the maintenance of the skin around the eyes.
It can cause fatty grains
Fatty grains are the most obvious after-effect. The cream is too nutritious, and the ingredients are not as delicate and light as the eye cream, so when applied around the eyes, the large molecules of oil cannot be completely absorbed by the skin, and there will be excess nutrients to grow fatty grains.
Does not meet the needs of the skin around the eyes
The effect of creams is usually on moisturizing and hydrating, and the anti-wrinkle effect is not obvious. The eyes are more prone to wrinkles because of the blinking and rich expressions they experience every day, and creams are not effective in fighting wrinkles, so fine lines and dry lines will still appear around the eyes.
In addition, dark circles and puffiness are also likely to appear around the eyes, and creams do not have the effect of removing dark circles and puffiness, so applying them on the surface around the eyes will not solve the problem of dark circles and puffiness.

Can eye creams be used as facial creams?
Although it is not recommended to apply creams around the eyes, it is possible to use eye creams on the face.

However, eye creams are usually more expensive and are a bit too extravagant to use on the face.
