If you’ve asking whether eye creams are really effective, the short answer is that it really depends on who’s using the eye cream as well as:

  • What ingredients went into the eye cream, and
  • If the ingredients were prepared to react potently to skin

But all things being equal – when all the best ingredients are prepared in a way that the skin quickly reacts to it – an eye cream should (a) firm the skin around the eyes, (b) minimize the appearance of crow’s feet or crinkly lines around the eyes, (c) heal any infection on the skin, and (d) protect the skin around the eye from further damage.

Like anything else, you won’t gather any benefit from eye creams if you don’t use them regularly.

Out in the market today, there are many brand and types of eye creams – the problem really is in choosing which ones to buy, i.e., which ones are effective. As a rule of thumb, however, the best eye creams are formulated with the twisted forms of vitamin molecules – twisted in that they react to topical application. They don’t have to go through the digestive system and the liver to be absorbed in the blood.

The Origin of Skin Creams

Skin creams began appearing more than 25 years ago as a treatment for acne. The first eye creams were formulated with a twisted form of Vitamin A.

When taken too much orally, Vitamin A actually causes drying and peeling of the skin. The vast majority of skin products use this side effect to treat skin conditions, from acne, oily skin, wrinkles, black heads, and white heads.

Acai berry in your eye cream?

Recent research on powdered freeze-dried açaí fruit pulp and skin showed that it contains 1002 U of vitamin A per 100 grams and intermediate anti-oxidant potency. Not surprisingly, many of today’s eye creams are being formulated with Acai berry. Take note, however, not all eye creams are created the same. How the cream was prepared matters as much as the ingredients that went into the preparation. For a list of the best eye creams, visit the site http://eyecreams.com/best-eye-creams.
