We've all heard that the eye area is extremely delicate, and this is so true as it is the thinnest and finest area on our face. Because it is so fragile, we must always remember to treat it delicately. When applying product to this area we use the 4th or pinky fingers with a 'apping' motion, as we don't have as much strength in these fingers and so our touch is lighter. We never pull or tug at the skin, as it will reduce the elasticity of the area. In fact I tell my clients to ignore any itching around the eye and try not to even touch the eye area.

It's important to keep the eye area moisturized with light not heavy products, as we have little or no oil glands here to help keep the area hydrated. As we age the skin begins to lose its underlying fat, elasticity and moisture.
