Cold, Dry Air Means Time For Eye Cream With Soothing Calendula

Let's be honest. When summertime hits, we all enjoy spending time outdoors. That means extreme heat, sun + damage to our skin, hair, and eyes.

And now that we have just entered autumn, it is essential we try and repair the havoc wreaked upon our faces + bodies.
.
Today, let's talk about our eyes. As we've been screaming on our beauty blog here for a few years now, the skin around the eyes is very delicate to begin with. This orbital region is also thin-skinned with tissue that contains few oil glands. That is why the eye area lacks natural moisture like other parts of the body.

As we get older, collagen breaks down, and thins out the skin around the eyes even more.

So that is really why putting on an eye cream every day + night will help fight fine lines + wrinkles, sagging + puffiness + dark circles.

There are tons of eye creams out there. So it can be quite daunting to pick the right formula. But why not try an organic eye cream containing CALENDULA.

This is a pretty, orange-petaled flower that is often used as a medicinal herb. When formulated into an eye cream, the properties of calendula do wonderful things, like soothe, moisturize and reduce under-eye puffiness.

We found a jar of eye cream containing calendula:

Indie Lee Calednula Eye Balm ($42).


Calendula Eye Balm contains these super natural ingredients:
Calendula Officinalis Flower (calendula) Oil, Beeswax, Magnifera Indica (mango) Seed Butter, Lavandula Angustifolia (lavender) Oil, Squalane (olive derived), Persea gratissima (avocado) Oil, Tocopheryl Acetate (vitamin E).
