  1. Apply Eye CreamEye cream should be applied when you apply your moisturizer, and it is beneficial to apply morning and night. Eye creams are very important because they provide the thin skin around your eyes with a targeted treatment so use eye creams with peptides, hyaluronic acid, and retinols.

 

  1. Weekly Exfoliation – The removal of dead skin cells at the surface level can be beneficial to improving overall texture and tone.

Using harsh scrubs and granular exfoliants often cause more damage than they do good, so its very important to use gentle polishes or masks.
