Eye care is a topic that, just a dozen or so years ago, was almost completely omitted from men's beauty kits. Men often limited themselves to the basics: soap, face cream, and sometimes aftershave balm. Today, the situation is different. Awareness of skincare is growing, and more and more men are reaching for specialized cosmetics – including eye cream . Why? Because the eyes and the area around them are one of the first places to show signs of fatigue and aging.
The skin under the eyes is extremely thin and delicate – in both men and women. This means it loses moisture more quickly, wrinkles more easily, and is more prone to dark circles and puffiness. The difference is that men's skin is generally thicker and produces more sebum, but this doesn't matter around the eyes – care is essential there for everyone.
In this article we will answer the questions:
- Do men need special eye creams?
- What should you pay attention to when choosing a cosmetic?
- Which natural and effective Orientana products will work best?
You will also learn how to use eye cream to make it truly effective.
Why should men use eye cream?
Many men believe that caring for the skin under the eyes is a woman's domain. This is a myth. The skin in this area is gender-neutral—it requires protection, nourishment, and regeneration.
Key reasons:
Signs of fatigue – long hours in front of the computer, stress, lack of sleep and stimulants quickly affect the appearance of the eyes.
Dark circles and bags – a common problem among men that can add years and make the face look tired.
Wrinkles – men often notice them later than women, but when they appear, they are deeper and more difficult to smooth out.
Prevention – prevention is better than cure. Regular use of eye cream slows down the skin's aging process.
What skin problems under the eyes do men experience?
1. Dark circles under the eyes
Often associated with fatigue, stress, and lack of sleep, they may be more visible in men due to thicker blood vessels and a tendency to retain water.
2. Swelling and bags
Morning puffiness after a sleepless night, excess salt in the diet or hours spent in front of a screen – all of these contribute to the formation of bags under the eyes.
3. Facial wrinkles and crow's feet
Men have stronger facial expressions, especially around the eyes and forehead, which contributes to the formation of wrinkles.
4. Dry skin
Whether a barber or an office worker, every man is susceptible to dry skin around the eyes. Air conditioning, wind, sun exposure, and improper care only exacerbate the problem.
Active ingredients in eye creams – what to look for?
Snail slime – a natural regenerating elixir, rich in collagen, elastin, glycolic acid, and vitamins. It moisturizes, smooths, and reduces dark circles.
Ceramides – rebuild the skin’s hydrolipid barrier, protect against water loss, and strengthen the delicate tissue around the eyes.
Reishi (Glacial Mushroom) – an adaptogenic mushroom, called the "elixir of immortality." A powerful antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals and slows aging.
Caffeine – stimulates microcirculation, reduces swelling and dark circles.
Natural oils (almond, sunflower, olive oil) – nourish and protect against moisture loss.
Aloe – soothes, relieves irritations and moisturizes.
