GOOD PRACTICES TO PROTECT THE EYE AREA
First of all, it is necessary to define: what do we protect ourselves from and how do we protect ourselves?
An English study revealed that about 10% of the skin on the face is forgotten during the “sun protection” stage. This area happens to be the eye area: the eyelids and the inner corner of the eye. However, this area is wrongly neglected. It turns out that it is one of the most sensitive areas of the face, due to its thinness. Also, about 10% of skin cancers develop around the eyes.
Indeed, environmental factors are the most aggressive around our eyes. Wind, sun, pollution…. They all dry out and damage the area around your eyes. It is therefore important to protect yourself properly!
Protecting your eyes from pollution:
Pollution attacks, irritates and damages your skin. Your eye area is particularly sensitive to it and wrinkles appear quickly!
It is therefore important to cleanse this area thoroughly using a suitable product. This will allow you to eliminate the impurities accumulated during the day. Finding a cleansing product that suits your skin is very important. You must listen to your skin and know its type (oily, combination or dry). An unsuitable product may irritate you or not be effective.
Remember to remove your make-up at the end of the day. Keeping it on for too long could damage the health of your skin.
In summary, to protect your eyes from pollution, you need to :
– Wash your face, not forgetting the eye area, with a product adapted to your skin.
– Remove your make-up carefully and systematically at the end of each day.
Protecting your eyes from the sun:
The sun is a very serious factor in the health of your skin. Its UV rays are responsible for the appearance of signs of ageing, fine lines and spots on the skin. The area around the eyes is particularly sensitive. We advise you to adopt the following good habits:
- Use sunglasses with good lenses. A good pair of glasses should have lenses that block 100% of UV rays. For comfort, it is also recommended to use lenses with an index of 3 or 4. Beware, dark lenses do not necessarily mean good protection. So make sure you get quality lenses that really filter out UV rays.
- Avoid direct exposure to the sun.
- Apply a moisturiser and UV protection product every morning to the face and eye area.Even on cloudy days! Whether the weather is good or bad, UV rays penetrate the clouds and can therefore damage your skin. It is therefore essential to apply an anti-UV cream every day to protect your skin. Christian Breton has developed the UV Eye Protection SPF 30. This product is a sunscreen that moisturizes and protects the eye area from UVA/UVB rays.

Protecting your eyes from… Ourselves!
Everyday gestures that seem harmless have an impact on the appearance of fine lines around the eyes. Repeatedly doing the wrong thing often leads to creasing or irritation of the skin. We advise you to follow these golden rules:
- Don’t rub your eyes in the morning or during the day. Rubbing your eyes regularly promotes dark circles and wrinkles your skin.
- Use your skincare products with care, without rubbing the eye area. When removing your make-up or washing your face, use gentle gestures.
- Use a towel dedicated only to your face. Using a face and body towel increases the transfer of bacteria and fungi to your face. This can lead to lesions, redness and irritation. We therefore advise you to have a towel especially for your face that you change every 2 days.
- Protect yourself from blue light. If you are often in front of a screen, apply an anti blue light cream.
