Anti-Aging Ingredients in Eye Creams - Part Two

Peptides are the most powerful age-reversing ingredients yet known. Their ability to stimulate collagen production far exceeds that of exfoliants. See my Cosmeceutical Peptide Glossary to read about the individual peptide study results.



Few eye creams have a stated sun protection. So be sure you add that. Dermatologists will tell you that the single most important thing that you can do to prevent skin photo-aging (which accounts for 80% of the skin’s physical signs of aging) is to protect it from the sun’s rays.




Many SPF ingredients are strong chemicals so, as you do with the Obagi products, be sure to keep them out of the eye itself. Virtually all of them will sting the eyes. According to dermatologists, the manufactured SPF ingredients most likely to cause an allergic skin reaction are PABA, benzophenones, cinnamates, and methoxydibenzoylmethane.



Sunday, with the ingredient information I’ve provided this week as background, I’ll rank order and evaluate the eye creams which Krista asked about.
