Eye Cream to Help with Flaky Skin

When the delicate skin around your eyes starts to feel dry and flaky, it can be uncomfortable and frustrating. The eye area is naturally thinner and more sensitive than the rest of your face, making it prone to dryness, especially during colder months or periods of stress. Finding a solution that hydrates without irritation is key.

You can find the Nakin Eye Cream Complex along with our full range here.

Below, we explore why flaky skin happens around the eyes and how our natural Eye Cream Complex can help restore comfort and hydration.

Why Does Skin Around the Eyes Get Flaky?

The skin around our eyes lacks the oil glands found elsewhere on the face. This means it has fewer natural resources to keep itself lubricated and protected. Several factors can exacerbate this issue:

• Environmental Stressors: Wind, cold air, and central heating zap moisture from the skin.
• Harsh Products: Cleansers or makeup removers containing alcohol or sulphates can strip the skin barrier.
• Sensitivities: Reactions to synthetic fragrances or potent active ingredients like retinol.

When the barrier is compromised, the skin loses water (transepidermal water loss), leading to that tight, flaky texture that makes makeup application difficult and can even cause stinging.

How Nakin Eye Cream Complex Helps

If you have flaky skin around your eyes, you could try our Eye Cream Complex. It is formulated to be a lovely antidote to dryness, offering a multi-action approach to skin health. It moisturises, hydrates, nourishes, and protects the skin using powerful plant-based ingredients.

Key Ingredients for Hydration and Repair

Our formula relies on high-quality botanical extracts rather than synthetic fillers. Here is how the key ingredients work to banish flakiness:

• Hyaluronic Acid: A hydration hero, hyaluronic acid holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water. It draws moisture into the skin layers to plump and smooth the surface immediately, helping to eliminate dry patches.
• Squalane: This plant-derived ingredient mimics the skin's natural oils. It acts as an emollient, sealing in moisture and softening rough texture without feeling heavy or greasy.
• Argan Oil: Rich in fatty acids and Vitamin E, argan oil deeply nourishes the skin, helping to repair the barrier and provide long-lasting comfort.
• Baobab Oil: Known for its healing properties, baobab oil is packed with antioxidants and omega fatty acids that protect the skin from environmental damage while soothing inflammation.

Suitable for Sensitive Skin

We know that flaky skin is often sensitive skin. While our range is not specifically medicated for skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis, it is crafted with sensitive skin in mind. Our products are free from harsh synthetic anti-ageing ingredients like retinol, which are often on our banned list due to their potential to cause irritation and peeling.

Instead, we use plant actives and extracts that work holistically with your skin. This means we support the skin's natural processes rather than forcing change through aggression. Our Eye Cream Complex is also fragrance-free, removing one of the most common triggers for skin reactions.

Versatile Use for Day and Night

Consistency is crucial when treating dryness. Our Eye Cream Complex is designed for both morning and evening use.

• In the morning: It provides a smooth, hydrated base for concealer and protects your skin from the day's environmental stressors.
• At night: It works alongside your skin's natural repair cycle to deeply nourish and restore moisture levels while you sleep.

How to Use It

Applying eye cream correctly ensures you get the benefits without dragging the delicate skin.

1. Cleanse your face with a gentle, non-stripping cleanser.
2. Take a small amount of Nakin Eye Cream Complex (about the size of a grain of rice) on your ring finger.
3. Gently pat the cream around the orbital bone, moving from the inner corner outwards.
4. Avoid rubbing; let the product absorb naturally.

Patch Testing and Guarantee

Everyone’s skin is unique. Even with natural ingredients, we always recommend performing a patch test before using any new product fully. Apply a small amount behind your ear or on the inside of your wrist and wait 24 hours to ensure there is no reaction.

We want you to feel confident in your skincare choices. That is why we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee in case our products do not suit your skin. We believe in the power of our natural formulas, but we also understand that individual skin needs vary.
