Here's the correct order for eye wrinkle care and eye cream application, starting in your 20s.

The skin around the eyes is thin and prone to wrinkles, so I think it's crucial to take preventative measures starting in your 20s. I apply eye cream not as the last step of my basic skincare routine, but after toner and before essence. This way, I feel the nutrients are better absorbed into the thin skin around my eyes. The key is to gently pat the cream in with your ring finger, using minimal pressure, to help it absorb. The trick is to apply it broadly, not just under the eyes, but also over the eyelids.

Moisturizing your eye area during the day, as well as at night, is crucial to preventing makeup from caking. I apply a small amount of a lightweight eye gel before applying sunscreen. Wrinkles are incredibly difficult to reverse once they appear, so even if it's a hassle, I believe incorporating this into your daily morning and evening routine as a solid investment in your skin's future. Even if you don't have any visible wrinkles right now, if you consistently apply this moisturizer, you'll see the benefits over time.
