Ways To Correct Under-eye Wrinkles
-
1
Protect yourself from the sun. Up to 90 percent of skin damage and under-eye wrinkles are caused by sun exposure. Use a sunblock stick and apply it around your eyes before going outdoors. Even better, use sunblock with a sun protection factor, or SPF, of 15 or higher on all areas of exposed skin. Avoid being outdoors when the sun is at its peak from noon to 3 p.m.

Wear sunglasses. When outside, even in winter, wear sunglasses that have 100 percent ultraviolet, or UV, A/B/C protection and lenses that are dark enough to keep you from squinting. This will protect your eyes and the delicate skin around them.

Sleep on your back. This can help keep your eyes and face younger looking since you won't be pushing your face into your pillow, causing creases and swelling under your eyes.

Drink eight glasses of water daily. Dehydration also plays a part in the health of our skin and formation of premature wrinkles. Proper hydration can help repair and plump up skin cells, reducing the appearance of wrinkles around the eyes and wrinkles in general.

Remove under-eye wrinkles with grapes or pineapple. Take a piece of fresh pineapple or cut a grape in half and rub the fruit on the wrinkles under and around your eyes. Leave the juice on your face for 20 to 30 minutes, then wash off. Over time, the natural antioxidants and acids in these fruits will help diminish fine eye wrinkles.

Vitamin E oil can also help repair skin and correct wrinkles under the eyes. Before going to bed, pierce a vitamin E capsule with a pin and squeeze some of the oil out onto your fingertip. Gently massage it into the lines under and around your eyes, throw away the empty capsule, and fall asleep on your back. You should notice a difference even after one application.

Tips & Warnings
Stay away from tanning salons and don't smoke if you don't want under-eye wrinkles.
Taking care of your skin, especially the delicate skin around your eyes, can't begin soon enough. By following the above steps, even if you do have under-eye wrinkles, you can correct much of the damage and prevent future lines from forming.
Do your research. Just because a product comes with a high price tag doesn't mean it works. Save your money by adopting a good diet and a healthy skin care routine.
