“Where the words are restrained, the eyes often talk a great deal.”
~Samuel Richardson~
Your eyes are one of the most important parts of your body. They do more than just help you look around. Your eyes can tell a lot of stories without you having to utter a single word. Whether you are in an interview or on your first date, the eyes can help you make a great impression.
Of course, not everyone has the same type of eyes – in either appearance, function or sensitivity. Just as some people have big brown eyes while others have relatively smaller blue eyes, some people have strong and healthy eyes while others have sensitive eyes. Contrary to what people might think, sensitive eye aren’t weak or unhealthy, they are just more vulnerable to external elements. If you have sensitive eyes, then you have to be very careful about how you carry out your beauty routine. Sensitive eyes shouldn’t stop you from looking good.
So let’s take a look at 5 effective beauty tips for people with sensitive eyes.
Beauty Tips for Sensitive Eyes
Use High-Quality Cosmetics
One of the things that can be dangerous for sensitive eyes is substandard cosmetics. You have to be extra careful about what products to use if you have sensitive eyes. Compromising on quality is a NO-NO in such cases; it’s better to look for high-quality cosmetic brands that are well respected in the market.
Choose Clean Beauty Products
It can be difficult to find specialized products for those with sensitive eyes, whether you’re trying to find a cream to benefit the delicate skin around your eyes, or even just the right eyeshadow. Rather than searching for specialized products created with sensitive eyes in mind, instead consider looking for clean beauty products. These exclude a long list of ingredients that have questionable safety data – but note: what some brands find acceptable, others do not so the list varies depending on the brand.
Synergie is a clean beauty brand that has a comprehensive list of ingredients that you won’t find in its products – whether skin care or makeup. By choosing a clean beauty brand such as Synergie, you’ll hopefully avoid many ingredients that may be irritating to those with sensitive eyes (such as coal tar used to blacken mascara, or paraben preservatives in skin care).
For example, using conventional mascara on your sensitive eyes can irritate them and make you feel agitated. You might spend the day rubbing your eyes if you don’t invest in a good quality clean product for your eyes. In contrast, Synergie’s Vitalash mascara is a clean beauty product that contains no coal tar, is all-natural, and is even formulated with soothing shea butter and argan oil to promote healthy lashes. It’s the perfect choice if you have sensitive eyes.
Don’t Keep Your Eye or Face Makeup On
Most people are tired when they come home after a long day at work or hours and hours of partying. Sometimes that tiredness makes you head to sleep without you taking off your makeup. This is not only a bad skin care habit in general, but it may be dangerous even if you don’t have sensitive eyes if you have sensitive eyes, as you might end up with an eye infection or irritation. So no matter what, always remove your makeup, especially if you have sensitive eyes. In fact, it’s a good idea to remove all your makeup as soon as you’re home, not just when you’re going to bed. One thing to keep in mind is that you should never rub your eyes vigorously to remove the makeup; rather gently wipe it off using a soft cloth or cotton pad.
Try to Use Less Makeup Around the Eyes
Eyes are considered the doorway to the soul. It is a known fact that one of the first thing people notice about you is your eyes. So we try to make our eyes dazzle as much as we can. However, if you have sensitive eyes then you have to use the least amount of makeup that you can. Using less makeup will reduce the risk of infection.
Be Gentle and Careful
Applying makeup can be quite a hassle when you have sensitive eyes, but it’s not too hard to get into good habits to prevent problems like eye irritation. Be very gentle while applying the makeup and be very careful about your hygiene. It’s a good idea to wash your hands first, to avoid transferring dangerous bacteria to your eyes. In addition, always keep your brushes and other eye makeup tools clean. You can find Synergie’s Cosmetic Brush Cleaner at Skin Elegance and be assured that it too does not contain anything on the Nasties list.
Conclusion
These are just five of the most basic yet important beauty tips for people with sensitive eyes. It can be a little more effort to apply makeup on sensitive eyes but with Synergie products, available in the Skin Elegance store, you can find eye makeup and skin care that work for you too. Wash your eyes regularly and enjoy a good sleep every day to save your eyes from dark circles. Stay hygienic and use the best beauty products to make your eyes dazzle!
