Duo Digest: How to Smooth Crow’s Feet
Crow’s feet—those fine lines that form around the outer corners of your eyes—are often one of the first signs of ageing. Since the skin in this area is delicate and constantly in motion (think smiling, squinting, and blinking), it’s more prone to developing wrinkles. But the good news? You can soften their appearance with the right skincare, lifestyle habits, and targeted treatments.
1. Strengthen & Hydrate the Eye Area
Keeping the skin around your eyes plump and hydrated is key to minimizing fine lines. Look for lightweight but nourishing eye creams that contain:
-
Peptides: Support collagen production for firmer skin
-
Hyaluronic Acid: Provides deep hydration to smooth fine lines
- Ceramides: Strengthen the skin barrier to lock in moisture
2. Protect & Prevent with SPF & Lifestyle Habits
Since UV damage is a major culprit behind crow’s feet, protecting your skin daily is essential.
-
Use SPF 30+: Apply sunscreen around your eyes (or use sunglasses) to prevent collagen breakdown.
-
Stay Hydrated: Drink enough water to keep skin supple.
- Manage Facial Movements: Squinting and rubbing your eyes can worsen lines—consider blue-light glasses and gentle eye care.
- Prioritise Sleep: Poor sleep quality can accelerate skin ageing, so aim for 7-9 hours nightly.
Crow’s feet don’t have to define your skin. With consistent hydration, sun protection, and collagen-boosting ingredients, you can keep your eye area looking smooth and youthful.
