Eye serums and eye creams have been around for ages. If you walk down most beauty aisles, you'll see tons of different types, all of which claim to make your eyes seem brighter, younger, or more awake. Lately, though, one particular type of product is becoming more popular: no it's not eye cream, it's CBD eye serum. Infused with hemp-derived CBD, many of these eye serums are also clean, vegan and cruelty-free. They can be a good choice for anyone looking to enhance their appearance and actually care about what they apply onto their body. But why, specifically, should you use a CBD eye serum — and how do you use it?
Why Use CBD Eye Serum
CBD eye serum is a good lightweight choice for many people because it predominantly works by reducing inflammation and retaining hydration which tends to be at the root of most skin problems. That's what CBD is best at, which is why people use CBD to help visibly transform the delicate under-eye area to reduce the look of dark circles, puffiness and promote tighter looking skin for brighter and youthful looking eyes.
Most of the problems people complain of with the skin around their eyes are related to inflammation. Bags under the eyes are due to inflammation so puffy, tired-looking eyes are really just inflamed eyes. Since CBD helps relieve inflammation, it addresses most of these common eye issues at once.
CBD is also known to have antioxidant properties, which means it can help slow down the aging process and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines around your eyes. You could use an eye cream with a long list of active (not so natural) ingredients to alleviate these delicate eye issues, or you could use CBD — to help address multiple issues and amplify other key ingredient benefits. Using CBD is just simpler and more natural.
How To Use CBD Eye Serum
To maximize the benefits of your CBD eye serums you'll want to start with clean skin. Make sure you use a gentle, non-medicated cleanser to avoid irritating your eyes or the skin around them. Pat the skin dry after cleansing.
Once your skin is clean, apply about a pea-sized amount of CBD eye serum to your ring finger and then to the skin around each eye. Use gentle upward sweeping motions to work it into your skin to ensure the serum is fully absorbed.
The best time to apply your CBD eye serum is in the evening before going to sleep. Some people like to do a second application after they wash their face in the morning.
