Fine Lines Under Eyes

Fine lines under eyes, for some, is good news as they love the happy, smiley look it gives them. But for a woman, it's even worse than a nightmare. When the first line starts appearing, women start losing their sleep over it. These fine lines are the first sign of aging. They make you look much older than you actually are, and I am sure that no woman would like to look 50 even before she reaches 30.

Causes

Before going into the details, one should know what actually causes these lines. Knowing this will help you to be more careful in future, thus preventing even deeper lines from appearing. As one ages, the elastin fibers and the collagen present in the skin around your eyes and mouth starts breaking down. Your skin also starts losing its moisture content, and it also loses the ability to renew itself as compared to earlier. Hence, you end up with dry skin, which is like a haven for wrinkles and fine lines. Besides this, various other factors such as too much exposure to the sun, or excessive smoking, continued squinting, laughing or smiling are also some reasons.

What to Do

Now that you know the causes, just take the necessarily precautions.

• Protect yourself from the sun. Whenever you go out in the sun, do not forget to wear a sun hat and your sun glasses. The sun causes you to squint and if you keep doing this repeatedly, then you are sure to get fine lines.
• If you are a smoker, then stop smoking right now. Smoking is the second biggest cause for fine lines, next to exposure to the sun. While smoking, the smoke gets into your eyes and it causes you to squint, which causes fine lines and wrinkles. Once you stop smoking, not only will you be able to get rid of them, but your entire complexion will become clearer too.
• As the skin around our eyes are thinner and drier than the other parts of our face, and since it also tends to get drier with age, one need to keep moisturizing it with a high quality moisturizer and massage that area.
• Do not forget to remove your makeup at the end of the day. No matter how tired you are, remove all traces of your makeup from your face and then call it a day. Remove your eye makeup gently with a cleanser. Do not pull the skin around your eyes.
• It's not possible for us to stop laughing or smiling just to prevent them. You can at least take care to minimize the crinkling effect that laughing or smiling has on your eyes.

If the above precautions are taken, then you will be saved from having those ugly looking lines under your eyes. But what about those unfortunate ladies who already have fine lines under their eyes? Is this the end for them? I don't think so. There are various ways in which you can get rid of those lines forever. Nowadays, in the market, you find several eye wrinkle creams which help you to reduce the lines. You can buy one of those and use it. But you have to be careful when using these creams, because the area around our eyes are delicate, hence, many creams may not suit that area.
