A good face cream for over 50 - Orientan's natural suggestions to support mature skin
After the age of 50, skin naturally becomes drier, loses elasticity and firmness, and wrinkles become more visible. The environment, hormonal changes, and decreased sebum production exacerbate this weakened skin condition. It's worth noting that dry skin (xerosis) affects as many as 38% to 85% of older adults in various clinical studies. Aging skin facilitates moisture loss, leading to a rough, scaly surface and a thinning of the protective barrier. Therefore, a good face cream after the age of 50 should: Intensively moisturize and rebuild the protective barrier, Regenerate and firm the skin, Soothe irritations and even out skin tone, Have a strong antioxidant effect, supporting the fight against oxidative stress and wrinkles. In the following sections you will learn about the natural products from the Orientana brand that meet these goals. What does skin need after 50? Mature skin is characterized by: Loss of moisture – reduced activity of sebaceous and sweat glands, especially in women over 60, who may have as much as 40% less sebum production Reduced elasticity and firmness resulting from the decrease in collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. Dryness and itching, as confirmed by the experience of adults - itching occurs in approximately 33.7% of people over 50 years of age Susceptibility to discoloration, uneven color, increased sensitivity to oxidation. Therefore, your skincare routine must combine multidimensional protection: hydration + regeneration + barrier + comfort.

THE HISTORY OF THE FIRST SNAIL SLIME CREAM Snail slime cream, also known as snail cream, has a history rooted in antiquity. In ancient Greece, Hippocrates recommended the use of snails to treat skin inflammations, such as wounds or irritations. Snails were used for their regenerative and moisturizing properties, although the active ingredients of their slime were not fully understood at that time. Modern interest in snail slime was revived in the 1980s when snail farmers in Chile noticed that their hands were exceptionally smooth and healed quickly from cuts. This discovery attracted the attention of scientists who began to study the properties of the slime, leading to its use in cosmetics. The first snail cream was introduced to the market by a Chilean company in the 1990s. As a result of research, Elicina created the first commercial cream containing snail slime, which started a global trend in cosmetics. The product became popular first in South America and then in other markets, especially in Asia, where cosmetics containing natural ingredients gained huge recognition. The importance of snail slime is not limited to the cosmetics industry. Traditionally, it has also been used in natural medicine, especially in treating infections and accelerating tissue regeneration. Today, its use is mainly focused on skin care, where its unique regenerative properties are invaluable. POPULARITY OF SNAIL SLIME IN KOREA As a Polish expert brand using Asian ingredients in cosmetics, we became interested in Korean skin care using snail slime a dozen or so years ago. This ingredient has gained huge popularity in Korea and has become one of the pillars of the global success of Korean skin care (so-called K-beauty). Its phenomenon is based on numerous benefits for the skin, such as regeneration, moisturization and wrinkle reduction. The Korean approach to skin care focuses on prevention and healthy appearance, which perfectly matches the action of snail slime. Thanks to its regenerative and moisturizing abilities, it has been used in a wide range of products, such as creams, serums, masks and essences. What's more, Koreans value natural and innovative ingredients, and snail slime fits perfectly into this philosophy. ORIENTANA SNAIL SLIME CREAM - INGREDIENT Snail slime, also known as mucin, contains a number of active substances that have a beneficial effect on the skin. Allantoin supports skin regeneration, soothes irritations and accelerates healing. Collagen and elastin are proteins responsible for skin elasticity and firmness. Glycolic acid gently exfoliates dead skin cells, which promotes skin renewal. Proteins nourish the skin and improve its structure.

Orientana cream with snail slime, when applied regularly to hands, creates a protective layer on the skin that helps protect it against harmful external factors such as frost, wind, environmental pollution and excessive UV radiation. Snail slime eye cream is exceptionally effective in the care of the delicate skin around the eyes, which is thinner and more susceptible to damage than the rest of the face. Thanks to the unique properties of snail slime, such as regeneration, hydration and anti-aging, an eye cream with this ingredient can significantly improve the condition of the skin around the eyes. HOW ORIENTANA SNAIL SLIME CREAM AFFECTS THE SKIN UNDER THE EYES Snail slime contains collagen and elastin, which help improve skin elasticity and strengthen its structure. Orientana snail slime eye cream used daily can reduce the visibility of facial wrinkles and fine lines that often appear in this area. The skin around the eyes is particularly susceptible to dryness.

The regenerating and soothing properties of the slime soothe the area around the eyes, reducing inflammation and improving microcirculation, which helps reduce bags and dark circles under the eyes. Allantoin, present in snail slime, accelerates skin regeneration processes, which is especially important for the area around the eyes, which quickly shows signs of fatigue and aging. It supports the healing of micro-damages and restores the skin's healthy appearance. Thanks to the content of vitamins (A, C, E) and other antioxidants, Orientana snail cream under the eyes acts as a protective shield against free radicals and environmental pollutants that accelerate skin aging. These antioxidants neutralize the harmful effects of external factors, slowing down the skin aging processes.

Regular use of the cream provides protection against harmful factors and supports the skin's repair processes. Can snail slime irritate the skin? Snail slime is generally well tolerated, but as with any cosmetic, there is a risk of irritation in people with particularly sensitive skin or prone to allergies. In this case, it is recommended to perform an allergy test before fully using the product. Due to its natural composition, allergic reactions are rare, but can occur, especially if the product contains additional chemicals. Where do we buy snail slime from? In response to the growing demand for snail slime, ecological farms have emerged, where snails are bred in environmentally friendly conditions. On such farms, snails are fed natural food, and the slime is obtained humanely, without harming the animals. The slime is obtained using non-invasive methods, e.g. by gently stimulating the snails, which causes them to secrete slime. Then the snails are returned to their natural environment, where they continue their normal life. One of the basic principles of the Orientana brand is not to use ingredients to the detriment of animals. We attach great importance to ensuring that snails are bred humanely. Countries where snail slime cream is the most popular Creams with snail slime are particularly popular in Asia, especially in South Korea, which is a pioneer in the production of innovative cosmetics. In recent years, snail slime has also gained popularity in Poland. MUCIN Mucins are a family of heavily glycosylated proteins that are secreted by snails for adhesion, hydration, lubrication, and other functions. Despite their ubiquity, snail mucins are largely uncharacterized. Snails produce mucin proteins in their mucus with a wide range of biological functions, including microbial defense, adhesion, and lubrication. Recently, snail mucins have also become a lucrative source of innovation with a wide range of applications in chemistry, biology, biotechnology, and biomedicine. In particular, snail mucins are used as skin care products, wound healing agents, surgical adhesives, and for the treatment of gastric ulcers. Recent advances in integrated omics (genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, glycomic) technologies have improved the characterization of snail mucins, enhancing the generation of new biomaterials. Therapeutic applications of snail mucin in medicine have been explored as antimicrobial agents, drug carriers, anticancer agents, wound healing agents, and biomaterial coatings, among others. Additionally, applications in cosmetics include anti-aging care, moisturization, anti-acne, scarring, and hyperpigmentation. It is important to emphasize that most of the studies conducted are preclinical studies or small clinical trials, which underscores the need for additional large-scale clinical trials to support these claims. The global market for snail mucin products is estimated to be worth between $457 million and $1.2 billion, with growth forecasts in the coming decade. snail slime filtrate In fact, at Orientana we use snail slime filtrate. It is a concentrated extract that is created by purifying and filtering raw snail slime. This process removes all impurities to obtain a pure, active ingredient rich in substances beneficial to the skin. Snail slime filtrate is a technologically advanced cosmetic ingredient obtained by filtering and purifying raw snail slime. It is rich in regenerating, moisturizing and anti-aging substances, making it an effective ingredient in skin care. How is snail slime filtrate made? Snail slime is collected and purified. Raw slime contains water, proteins, enzymes, trace minerals, and other substances that may contain contaminants. The purification process is designed to eliminate unwanted substances such as dead cells, bacteria, and environmental pollutants. After purification, the mucus is filtered several times to obtain a pure and concentrated product that is ready to be used in cosmetics. During the filtration process, the mucus is transformed into a filtrate – a light, watery solution that easily penetrates the skin while preserving all the valuable active ingredients. The filtrate must be stabilized to maintain its properties over a long period of time. Therefore, appropriate preservatives or auxiliary substances are added to prevent decomposition and maintain the biological activity of the ingredients contained. Active ingredients in snail slime filtrate Snail slime filtrate contains a number of active ingredients that have a beneficial effect on the skin: Allantoin – accelerates cell regeneration, soothes and supports healing. Collagen and elastin – proteins that support skin elasticity and firmness. Glycolic acid – gently exfoliates dead skin, supporting skin renewal. Proteins and enzymes – nourish the skin, support its repair and protect it from external factors. Vitamins (A, C, E) – act as antioxidants, helping to protect the skin from the harmful effects of free radicals. The use of snail slime filtrate in cosmetics Snail slime filtrate is commonly used in skin care products such as anti-aging creams where it slows down the aging process, improves skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles. Moisturizing creams where it deeply moisturizes and nourishes the skin, especially dry and tired. Regenerating serums where it helps heal scars, reduce discoloration and repair damaged skin. Acne creams where, thanks to its anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, the filtrate helps heal acne lesions and reduce scars. Snail slime filtrate is a technologically advanced cosmetic ingredient obtained by filtering and purifying raw snail slime. It is rich in regenerating, moisturizing and anti-aging substances, making it an effective ingredient in skin care. Summary Creams with snail slime are versatile cosmetics that have gained popularity worldwide due to their regenerative, moisturizing and anti-aging properties. They are particularly valued in Asian countries, but their popularity is growing rapidly in other markets as well. In addition, ecological methods of obtaining snail slime make these cosmetics popular among people looking for natural, but at the same time effective care solutions.

SKIN AROUND THE EYES
The skin around the eyes requires a different care method than the rest of the facial skin. How can you ensure that you can enjoy a young, radiant look for a long time? Eye cream is an absolute must and we must invest in it, especially around the age of 25. That is when we start to notice fine lines and furrows under the eyes, and with time the first wrinkles. The skin around the eyes is very delicate and sensitive - it is up to 7 times thinner than in other parts of the face and has several dozen times fewer sebaceous glands. What's more, it has fewer collagen fibers. Hence, it quickly becomes dry, irritated, tight and less elastic. That is why it is important to sense the moment when we should start using eye cream! The consistency of the eye cream is important – it cannot be too heavy because the skin there is thin and delicate. Eye creams, compared to face creams, have a minimal amount of preservatives and very delicate scents to minimize the risk of allergies. What problems do we struggle with around the eyes most often and how to act? dark circles under the eyes , which make our face look tired and sad. Genes often have an influence on this, but also lack of sleep, fatigue or microcirculation disorders. In such a case, look for ingredients in the cream that improve the functioning of blood vessels, such as caffeine, arnica, butcher's broom, green tea or ginkgo biloba. You can also deal with dark circles by applying creams that optically brighten the skin due to the content of light-refracting ingredients, such as mica. • bags under the eyes , or puffiness around the eyes, which spoils our mood when we wake up in the morning. In this case, genetic conditions can also have an impact, but also an inappropriate diet (especially too much salt) or a bad lifestyle associated with lack of sleep. Lymphatic stasis is created, because blood around the eyes circulates slower. It is worth doing a massage of the eye area in the morning, which will improve microcirculation, and thus nourish and oxygenate the skin and help eliminate puffiness. A cold treatment performed, for example by tapping a cream chilled in the fridge, will work great. • crow's feet, also known as mimic wrinkles. At first, they only appear when we squint or laugh, but after some time they become permanent and add years to our look. How to deal with this? You should choose creams that contain anti-wrinkle substances such as stoechiol, hyaluronic acid, vitamin E. They will smooth and reduce wrinkles and increase skin firmness. An innovative plant complex will have intensive anti-wrinkle effects: ginger extracts (Zingiber Offinale) and Alpinia Officinarum extracts extracted in rapeseed oil (Brassica Campestris) - a complex rich in phenols and natural vitamin E, has strong antioxidant properties (35 times stronger than the base oil itself), helps protect the skin from factors that accelerate the ageing process, regenerates the barrier functions of the epidermis. Snail slime also has a beneficial effect on our youthful look, as it contains collagen and elastin, which strengthen the skin, giving it elasticity and flexibility, and mucopolysaccharides, which protect the skin from ageing, support the production of collagen and help maintain moisture. When taking care of the eye area, remember to remove make-up properly. Since you already know how delicate and sensitive the epidermis is there, when choosing a make-up remover, be guided by the content of soothing and calming extracts, vegetable oils. Do not rub or excessively stretch the skin around the eyes. Precise make-up removal is the first step to a beautiful, deep and rested look. The cream patted onto the clean skin around the eyes will be able to work properly and develop the power of its action!!!

Ingredients for mature skin - which ones to choose to rejuvenate and strengthen the skin
Mature skin isn't just about wrinkles, but above all, the skin's changing needs. With age, collagen and elastin levels decline, skin loses firmness, discoloration and dryness appear, and the hydrolipid barrier weakens. Therefore, mature skin care requires active ingredients with proven anti-aging and regenerative properties . In this article, we'll show you which ingredients best support mature skin and how they work—both in terms of protecting against oxidative stress and providing deep regeneration. We'll focus on the natural and innovative ingredients found in Orientana cosmetics: Reishi - an adaptogen with strong antioxidant properties, Retinol H10 - a milder form of retinol with a rejuvenating effect, Ashwagandha - an Ayurvedic plant that improves skin firmness, Snail slime - intensely moisturizing and regenerating, Ceramides and exosomes - supporting the reconstruction of the skin barrier, Caffeine, acids and vegetable oils - improving the appearance and vitality of the skin. The article will also answer the most frequently asked questions from people looking for anti-aging cosmetics: Which ingredients really smooth wrinkles? Does mature skin need acids? How to strengthen the skin barrier naturally? Which Orientana cosmetics are best for people over 40 and 50? This will help you easily choose products tailored to your needs and understand how to combine ingredients into an effective anti-aging routine. Mature skin – challenges and needs Mature skin typically begins after the age of 35-40, when the skin's natural renewal processes slow down. Its structure changes, and daily habits, diet, and exposure to external factors (sun, pollution, stress) further accelerate the aging process. Skin becomes thinner, more sensitive, and less resistant to irritation. The most common problems of mature skin: Loss of firmness and elasticity - a decrease in collagen and elastin production leads to skin sagging. Wrinkles and expression lines become more and more visible, especially around the eyes, mouth and forehead. Dryness - the amount of natural lipids and ceramides decreases, leading to loss of moisture. Discoloration and uneven skin tone - caused by exposure to UV rays and decreased cellular activity. Weakened hydrolipid barrier - the skin is more susceptible to irritation, inflammation and dehydration. What does mature skin need? To maintain a healthy appearance and slow down the aging process, mature skin needs: strong antioxidants (e.g. Reishi, Ashwagandha), regenerating and rejuvenating ingredients (e.g. Retinol H10, snail slime), moisturizing and rebuilding the barrier (ceramides, exosomes, vegetable oils), gentle exfoliation (AHA, PHA acids), ingredients that improve microcirculation and skin oxygenation (caffeine). Thanks to the appropriate combination of these substances in daily care, it is possible not only to improve the appearance of the skin, but also to actually support its natural regenerative processes.

Nourishing cream – with plant oils and adaptogens (Reishi, Ashwagandha) supports night-time skin regeneration. Additional care - 2-3 times a week Acid peeling (AHA or PHA) – smoothes and brightens the skin, preparing it to absorb active ingredients. Regenerating masks – e.g. with dates or vitamin C, to enhance hydration and smooth the complexion. By using this routine, mature skin receives full support : in the morning, protection against external factors, regeneration and reconstruction in the evening, regularly – refreshment and strengthening through masks and peels. The most common mistakes in mature skin care Even the best active ingredients won't deliver the desired results if used incorrectly. Mature skin requires gentleness, consistency, and carefully selected formulas. Here are the most common mistakes to avoid: Skipping sunscreen Not using SPF cream daily accelerates the aging process, causes discoloration and reduces the effectiveness of anti-aging ingredients such as retinol and acids. Too aggressive skin cleansing Harsh detergent gels or frequent use of facial brushes damage the hydrolipid barrier. Skin becomes even drier and more susceptible to irritation. Instead, choose gentle Orientana gels and toners with inulin, gluconolactone, or rice water. Excessive exfoliation with acids AHA and PHA acids are beneficial, but if used daily, they can lead to irritation, hypersensitivity, and worsening skin condition. It's best to use them 2-3 times a week . Using retinol without skin preparation Retinol H10 is a gentler form of retinol, but it should always be introduced gradually. Failure of skin to adapt can result in irritation and redness. Using only heavy creams Mature skin needs not only nourishment but also active ingredients —adaptogens, ceramides, exosomes, and caffeine. A rich cream without active ingredients may improve comfort but won't slow down the aging process. Skipping eye and neck care The skin around the eyes and neck ages the fastest, so it is worth using dedicated eye creams and serums with caffeine and ceramides , and regularly care for the décolleté and neck with the same ingredients as the face. By avoiding these mistakes and choosing conscious care based on proven active ingredients, you can significantly improve the condition of mature skin and slow down the aging process. FAQ - frequently asked questions about mature skin Is retinol safe for mature skin? Yes, but it's worth reaching for milder forms, such as Retinol H10 in Orientana cosmetics. It's effective against wrinkles and discoloration, while being less irritating than traditional retinol. Which ingredients are best for smoothing wrinkles? The strongest anti-wrinkle ingredients are Retinol H10, Reishi, and Snail Slime . Used regularly, they improve skin texture and reduce fine lines. What ingredients rebuild the skin barrier? Ceramides, exosomes, and natural plant oils provide the best results. They strengthen the hydrolipid barrier, retain moisture, and protect against irritation. Does mature skin need acids? Yes, but in moderate doses. AHA and PHA acids gently exfoliate, lighten discolorations, and improve the absorption of other ingredients. Use them 2–3 times a week. Does snail slime really work? Yes, its effectiveness is confirmed by research. Snail slime intensely moisturizes, regenerates, and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and discoloration. Which Orientana cosmetics are best for mature skin? It's worth reaching for series with Reishi, Retinol H10, Snail Slime, Ashwagandha , and products with ceramides and exosomes . This combination provides comprehensive anti-aging care. Does caffeine matter in mature skin care? Yes, especially in eye cosmetics. Caffeine reduces puffiness, improves microcirculation, and adds freshness to the skin. How often should I use retinol in anti-aging care? Start with twice a week, then increase the frequency to 3-4 times a week. Always in the evening and in combination with a moisturizer and SPF during the day. Mature skin requires care based on ingredients that work on multiple levels—from antioxidant protection, through regeneration, to deep hydration. Reishi, Retinol H10, Ashwagandha, Snail Slime, Ceramides, Exosomes, Caffeine, Acids, and Natural Oils are the foundation of an effective anti-aging routine. Each of these ingredients addresses different skin needs: reducing wrinkles, brightening discolorations, strengthening the hydrolipid barrier, and restoring skin firmness. Orientana cosmetics combine traditional Asian and Ayurvedic plant knowledge with modern technologies such as Retinol H10 and exosomes. This makes them safe, effective, and tailored to the needs of mature skin. If you want to care for your skin in a natural yet modern way, choose Orientana cosmetics, designed specifically for mature skin. Choose care that not only improves appearance but also supports your skin's natural regenerative processes.

How to care for the skin around the eyes – effective care with natural Orientana cosmetics
The skin around the eyes is up to five times thinner than the rest of the face, measuring only 0.3-0.5 mm thick. This is why the first signs of aging—fine wrinkles, crow's feet, and loss of firmness—appear around the age of 25. Furthermore, there are fewer sebaceous glands in this area, which weakens the hydrolipid barrier and causes the skin to lose moisture more quickly. Dermatological studies show that as many as 78% of women over 30 notice dark circles or puffiness under their eyes, and 62% notice wrinkles in this area earlier than in other areas of the face. The condition of this delicate area is affected not only by the aging process but also by stress, lack of sleep, UV radiation, diet, and exposure to pollution. To maintain a fresh and youthful appearance for longer, care tailored to the specific needs of the skin around the eyes is essential. Lightweight formulas rich in active ingredients with moisturizing, antioxidant, and anti-puffiness properties are ideal. A good example are Orientana's natural eye care products, which combine the effectiveness of plant extracts with gentleness suitable for this sensitive area. Why does the skin around the eyes require special care? The skin around the eyes is unique in its structure and function. It's an area where even the smallest imperfections become more visible than elsewhere on the face. Thinner and more delicate structure The thickness of the skin is on average 0.3–0.5 mm , while on the cheeks it can reach up to 2 mm. This thin layer of epidermis and dermis makes the blood vessels beneath the skin easily visible, which contributes to the formation of dark circles under the eyes. Fewer sebaceous glands There are significantly fewer sebaceous glands around the eyes than in other parts of the face. This means weaker natural lipid protection, which leads to faster water loss from the epidermis ( TEWL – Transepidermal Water Loss ). Constant work of facial muscles We blink up to 10,000–15,000 times a day. The orbicularis oculi muscle is in constant motion, which, combined with the delicate skin, contributes to the formation of fine facial wrinkles. Susceptibility to external factors UV radiation, free radicals, air pollution and oxidative stress affect this zone particularly quickly. The skin around the eyes ages on average 40% faster than the rest of the face. Therefore, care for this area should be gentle yet effective – rich in moisturizing, antioxidant, and microcirculation-improving ingredients. Orientana eye cosmetics offer precisely this effect, based on plant extracts that support the skin's natural regeneration without weighing it down. The most common skin problems around the eyes While each of us ages at an individual pace, there are a few common issues that most often appear in this sensitive area. Their severity depends on genetics, lifestyle, and skincare routine. Facial wrinkles and crow's feet The first fine lines may become visible around the age of 25 . They are caused by the daily work of facial muscles (smiling, squinting, blinking) and the loss of collagen and elastin. UV radiation accelerates their appearance by up to 30% . How to prevent: use nourishing and highly moisturizing products, e.g. with tremella and ceramides, such as Hydro Tremella Nourishing Eye Cream. Dark circles under the eyes It is estimated that every second woman over the age of 30 notices dark circles in this area. They may be the result of genetic pigmentation, slowed microcirculation, sleep deprivation or chronic stress. A diet low in iron and dehydration also increase their visibility. How to reduce: use preparations that stimulate circulation and brighten, e.g. Orientana eye cream with snail slime , which has an anti-swelling effect. Swelling and bags under the eyes They most often appear in the morning – they are related to the accumulation of lymph and water retention. Allergies, excess salt in the diet and sleeping in the wrong position exacerbate the problem. Studies show that 64% of people over 35 experience swelling regularly. How to reduce: cold compresses, lymphatic massage with an ice cube which reduces swelling and adds energy to the look. Dryness and irritation Caused by low lipid content in this part of the skin and insufficient hydration. It may be the result of using makeup removers that are too strong or from contact with allergens. How to prevent: choose gentle cleansing products and creams with moisturizing properties and those that rebuild the hydrolipid barrier. All of these problems can be alleviated by implementing a proper skincare routine and choosing products specifically designed for this area – ideally those based on natural ingredients and free from irritating additives. Orientana eye cosmetics address each of these concerns, offering research-proven effectiveness while remaining gentle on sensitive skin. How to care for the skin around your eyes – daily routine Effective eye care requires a combination of gentleness and consistency. It's important to choose cosmetics tailored to this area and apply them in the correct order. Cleaning Why it's important: Removing makeup and impurities is the first step to maintaining healthy skin. Any remaining makeup, dirt, or sebum can irritate and accelerate aging. How to do it properly: Use gentle eye makeup removal oils, without strong detergents, e.g. Orientana Makeup Remover Oil . Avoid rubbing – instead, apply a soaked cotton pad for a few seconds to dissolve the makeup. Wash off the oil with a gentle Orientana facial cleansing gel with date extract and gluconolactone - it is also gentle on the eye area, without damaging the hydrolipid barrier. Moisturizing and nourishing Why it's important: The skin in this area loses water faster than the rest of the face, so it requires cosmetics rich in humectants (e.g. hyaluronic acid, glycerin) and nutrients (e.g. vegetable oils, vitamins). How to use: Apply a small amount of the preparation with your ring finger, gently tapping into the skin. Use morning and evening. Recommended Orientana products: Reishi Peptides Eye and Eyelid Serum – reduces swelling, soothes and refreshes the look. Eye cream – nourishes, moisturizes, brightens and has anti-wrinkle properties. Apply the Serum under your eyes and on your eyelids Why it's important: Eye serums are concentrated cosmetics with a higher concentration of active ingredients than creams or gels. This allows them to work faster and more intensively on specific skin concerns, such as wrinkles, loss of firmness, dark circles, or puffiness. Advantages of use: A lighter consistency that absorbs easily and does not burden thin skin. Can also be applied to the movable eyelid (if the manufacturer allows it). Targeted action – e.g. lifting, brightening or deep hydration. How to use: Apply 1–2 drops of serum under the eyes and on the eyelids, tapping gently with your fingertip. Use under cream to lock the active ingredients into the skin. Recommended product Orientana Sun protection Why it's important: UV radiation is one of the main factors causing photoaging. In this area, it can accelerate the loss of elasticity by up to 40% . How to use: Apply SPF cream every day, even on cloudy days. Choose lightweight formulas that do not migrate into the eye. Stimulation of microcirculation Why it's important: Improving blood and lymph flow helps reduce dark circles and puffiness. How to use: Perform a short massage around the eyes (e.g. with a jade roller or your fingertips). Use products with caffeine or plant extracts that improve circulation. Recommended product Orientana Night regeneration Why it's important: Skin's repair processes are most intense at night. This is the best time for higher concentrations of active ingredients to work. How to use: Choose richer eye cream formulas that support the rebuilding of collagen and elastin. Recommended product Orientana Orientana natural eye cosmetics Orientana offers cosmetics designed specifically for the delicate skin around the eyes – rich in active ingredients with proven effectiveness, free from unnecessary synthetic fillers and animal testing. Below is a summary: Eye cream with ceramides Action: Intensively regenerates the hydrolipid barrier, smoothes fine wrinkles and protects against moisture loss. Key ingredients: Ceramides – rebuild the structure of the epidermis and strengthen its tightness. Trehalose – a strong antioxidant and humectant that protects cells against oxidative stress. Avocado oil - nourishes and regenerates the skin under the eyes Shea butter – nourishes and softens the skin. For whom: For people with dry, sensitive and mature skin around the eyes, requiring reconstruction and smoothing. Moisturizing eye cream with snail slime Action: Deeply moisturizes, accelerates regeneration and helps reduce dark circles and fine lines. Key ingredients: Snail slime – rich in collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid and allantoin, has a strong regenerating effect. Caffeine - reduces puffiness under the eyes Hyaluronic acid - binds water in the epidermis and ensures firmness. Stoechiol Complex - brightens and strengthens delicate skin For whom: Perfect for tired skin, with signs of aging, requiring intensive regeneration. Reishi Eye and Eyelid Serum Action: Lifts, smoothes and reduces the visibility of dark circles, improves skin firmness on the eyelids. Key ingredients: Reishi (lingzhi mushroom) – an adaptogen with antioxidant and anti-wrinkle properties. Oligopeptide-1 - reduces fine lines and improves skin elasticity. Centella asiatica - strengthens blood vessels, soothes, and has anti-edema properties. It has a targeted anti-aging and lifting effect. Caffeine - reduces puffiness under the eyes For whom: For people looking for an intensive, multi-directional anti-aging and lifting effect.

Tip: For best results, combine the Reishi serum with one of the eye creams – apply the serum first and the cream second to enhance the lifting, moisturizing and regenerating effect. Home remedies to support eye area care While professional cosmetics are the foundation of effective skincare, proper habits and simple home remedies can enhance their effectiveness. Techniques that improve microcirculation, reduce puffiness, and support regeneration work best for the skin around the eyes. Cool compresses Why they work: Low temperature constricts blood and lymphatic vessels, which reduces swelling and dark circles. How to use: Place refrigerated teaspoons, cotton pads with chamomile infusion or gel compresses on your eyelids for a few minutes. How to combine with Orientana cosmetics: After removing the compress, apply Eye Cream with Ceramides to maintain the smoothing and moisturizing effect. Lymphatic massage of the eye area Why it works: Stimulates blood and lymph circulation, which aids detoxification and reduces swelling. How to use: Use your fingertips or a jade roller. Massage gently, starting from the inner corner of the eye towards the temple. How to combine with Orientana cosmetics: Perform a massage using the Reishi Eye and Eyelid Serum , which will additionally firm and nourish the skin. Herbal infusion compresses Why they work: Herbs like chamomile, eyebright, and green tea have soothing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. How to use: Brew some tea or herbs, let the infusion cool, then soak cotton pads in it and place them on your eyelids for 10 minutes. How to combine with Orientana cosmetics: After removing the compresses, use the Moisturizing Eye Cream with Snail Slime to support regeneration and hydration. Healthy diet and hydration Why it works: Vitamin deficiency (especially A, C, E) and dehydration intensify dark circles and wrinkles. How to use: Drink at least 1.5–2 liters of water daily. Include foods rich in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids and protein in your diet. How to combine with Orientana cosmetics: Complete your care with the Hello Daktyl Comfort Nourishing Cream , which will provide the skin with antioxidants and nourishing oils. Proper sleep hygiene Why it works: Lack of sleep and sleeping in an incorrect position intensify dark circles and puffiness. How to use: Sleep 7–8 hours, preferably on your back, with your head slightly raised. Avoid screens right before bed to reduce tension in the muscles around your eyes. How to combine with Orientana cosmetics: In the evening, apply a richer eye cream, e.g. Cream with ceramides , to support night-time skin regeneration. By combining home methods with the systematic use of Orientana eye cosmetics, you can notice an improvement in the condition of your skin after just a few weeks – it will be better moisturized, smoother, and brighter. The most common mistakes in eye care Even the best cosmetics won't deliver the desired results if we make mistakes in our daily care routine. When it comes to the skin around the eyes, poor habits can accelerate the aging process, exacerbate dark circles and puffiness. Using face creams instead of eye creams Why it's a mistake: Face creams often have too heavy a consistency or too high a concentration of ingredients that can irritate the thin skin of the eyelids. Solution: Use cosmetics designed specifically for this area, such as Eye Cream with Ceramides or Moisturizing Eye Cream with Snail Slime . Rubbing too hard when removing makeup Why it's a mistake: Excessive friction stretches the skin, damaging its structure and accelerating wrinkle formation. Solution: Use gentle cleansing products, e.g. Orientana gentle facial cleansing oil, and remove makeup using the "apply, wait, wipe" method. Skipping sunscreen Why it's a mistake: UV radiation is one of the main factors of photoaging and wrinkle deepening. Solution: After applying eye cream, use an SPF designed for the face or sensitive eye area. Applying too much cosmetics Why it's a mistake: Too much cream or serum can weigh down thin skin and even cause swelling. Solution: A rice-sized amount per eye is enough, gently patted in with your ring finger. Lack of systematic care Why this is a mistake: The skin around the eyes reacts to regularity – occasional use of cosmetics does not bring long-term results. Solution: Use your chosen product every morning and evening. You can combine the Reishi eye serum and eyelid cream with the serum to increase the effectiveness of the treatment. It's worth remembering: The skin around the eyes "remembers" both good and bad habits. Gentle touch, sun protection, and appropriate cosmetics, such as those from Orientan, are an investment in a younger look for years to come. Caring for the skin around the eyes requires special attention – this is where signs of fatigue, stress, and aging are most visible. Its thin structure, fewer sebaceous glands, and constant activity of facial muscles mean that without proper support, it loses firmness and radiance up to 40% faster than the rest of the face. The key to maintaining a youthful look is systematic, gentle and multi-stage care : Gentle cleansing without rubbing. Daily moisturizing and regeneration with cosmetics created specifically for this zone. Sun protection and microcirculation support. Regular use of serum or cream, preferably in combination with home methods. Orientana natural cosmetics, such as Eye Cream with Ceramides , Moisturizing Eye Cream with Snail Slime , Reishi Eye and Eyelid Serum or the Comfortable Nourishing Hello Dakty Cream combine the effectiveness of plant ingredients with the safety of use even on sensitive skin. Create a look that delights every day. Check out the full range of Orientana eye cosmetics and choose the formula tailored to your needs.

HOW ORIENTANA CAME TO BE
Did you know that Orientana is a Polish brand? Although these are natural cosmetics made from Asian plants, they are created by a Polish woman. A Polish woman in love with Asia and a natural lifestyle. The creation of Orientana was preceded by several important facts in my life: A few years ago, I focused on nature. I switched my whole family to a healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle. I gave up processed food, started teaching my children to read labels and live ecologically. The reason for this change was, among other things, my visits to Asian countries, where people live close to nature and greatly appreciate its value. I visited many Asian countries where I learned about natural medicine, Ayurveda and amazing plants, whose beneficial effects have been known in those regions for thousands of years. I also learned about cosmetics with natural, simple compositions, the formulas of which are different from European ones. I decided to combine my passion for natural cosmetics and Asia with work. This is how Orientana was created - natural cosmetics made from Asian plants. The best specialists and Ayurvedic doctors in India and scientists from Poland who specialize in natural formulas work for Orientana. I create cosmetic concepts, and they transform them into a natural product. Without compromise, always with the best natural composition, as innovative and unique as possible. I want my brand to stand out among cosmetics with its full naturalness, high quality and Asian ingredients. I want it to be available and enjoyable for every Polish woman. I hope you will love Orientan as much as I do.
