Caring for the eye area starts with simple, suitable steps: hydrating and smoothing the eye contour, strengthening lashes and brows, enhancing the eyes, naturally. These targeted products for eyes, lashes, and brows address each need with precision, from daily care to makeup.
The skin around the eyes is thin and particularly exposed to signs of fatigue and dehydration. A dedicated product brings hydration and comfort with a suitable texture, while targeting the appearance of dark circles, puffiness or fine lines depending on the formula.
When should the eye contour be applied in a routine?
The eye contour is applied to clean skin, before the face serum and cream. Apply a small amount around the orbital bone and pat in gently. The HUYGENS Cucumber Eye Contour can be used morning and evening. Expert tip: use your ring finger for a controlled, gentle application.
How do I care for short or fragile lashes?
Caring for fragile lashes starts with limiting mechanical stress. When removing makeup, avoid rubbing the eyes with a cotton pad soaked in micellar water: prefer a cleansing balm, which dissolves mascara and lets you remove it gently, without pulling on the lashes. Also avoid handling or curling them excessively. In addition, regular use of a fortifying serum, formulated with targeted actives such as Cressatine® HD, plant keratin or castor oil, helps strengthen the lashes and support their natural growth.
What are the best actives for the eye contour and lashes?
Needs differ depending on the area. For the eye contour, favor hydrating, decongesting and smoothing actives: HUYGENS notably combines cucumber, known for its refreshing action, with Spilanthol, a botanical active that helps smooth the appearance of fine lines. For the lashes, look instead for fortifying actives that support their natural growth: Cressatine® HD, plant keratin and organic castor oil help strengthen the fiber and gradually improve the appearance of longer, denser and more resistant lashes.
Can a lash product be used under makeup?
Yes, provided you match the product to the result you want. The Booster Lash & Brow Serum is used as a fortifying serum: apply it to clean lashes and let the formula dry before applying makeup. To combine care and makeup in a single step, The Booster Black Lash Serum is an ideal alternative: its black formula works as a serum-mascara, while bringing definition, color and natural volume to the lashes.
How do I avoid weakening the eye area when removing makeup?
Avoid rubbing the eyes or pulling on the lashes, especially when they are fine or fragile. Favor gentle formulas that rinse off easily and are effective enough to dissolve makeup without repeated rubbing. Balm textures are particularly suitable: The Multi-Purpose Night Elixir Balm, rich in nourishing plant oils, gently dissolves makeup while preserving the comfort of the skin and lashes. Massage gently with your fingertips, then rinse without excessive friction.
