How to Get Smooth Lower Eyelids


Rough-looking lower eyelids are obviously a no-no, and it's hard to just cover them up with makeup. Creating a smooth look is simple, though, as long as you stick with a healthy routine to pamper those peepers. Always treat your eyelids gently, since the skin is super delicate, too. This includes the upper and lower parts of the lids as well as the delicate skin below and to the sides of your eyes. In other words, do not scrub or pop zits around the eye area, or your efforts to smooth your lids could backfire.


Exfoliate

Never use harsh scrubs on any part of your eyelids or the other sensitive skin surrounding your eyes. If the skin looks flaky, use a scrub meant for eyelids. Or, add a little baby shampoo to a soft washcloth and gently massage the skin around your eyes after wetting your face and the cloth with warm water.

Moisturize

Don't let your exfoliating go to waste -- moisturize. Wrinkling in the lower eyelids is a common issue that often comes from a lack of oils in your skin, meaning you need intensive moisturizer. A good moisturizer keeps your skin looking smooth and healthy without feeling greasy. Use an eye cream for your eyes and a facial moisturizer for the rest of your face. Choose a skin-firming eye cream, which will help to tighten the skin around your peepers.

Get Enough Sleep

If your lower eyelids are looking wrinkly, it could be from lack of sleep. Get enough z's -- beauty rest is a real thing. Your whole face will look healthier, too, since you won't have that saggy-eye look. Sleep on a satin pillowcase to keep your skin soft and smooth.

Makeup

Using the right makeup makes for a smoother look. Cake-like foundation, shadow or liner definitely isn't attractive. Each tends to settle in the creases of your lower eyelids, making the caked-on look more obvious. Light mineral makeup will give your skin a very subtle shimmer for that sexy, glowing look. A silky shadow minimizes wrinkles, and silky matte shadows hide them even better. Avoid sparkly shadows, which only draw attention to wrinkles. Choose a liner that glides on smoothly instead of smudging on like crayon.

Get Expert Help

If you're having major problems with scaly skin around your eyes (or anywhere else), see a dermatologist ASAP. You may need a prescription, or you may have an undiagnosed allergy.
