The difference between eye cream and eye essence

Eye cream and eye essence are both cosmetics used by women to beautify the eye area. Most men may think that eye cream and eye essence are the same thing, but in fact they are different in nature. They are different in terms of their morphological structure and their functional effects. Eye cream molecules are relatively large and have good moisturizing properties, while eye essence molecules are small and are easier to absorb by the eyes. Therefore, it is recommended to use both.

The difference between eye cream and eye serum

Although essence has high nutritional value, it has poor moisturizing effect and is not recommended to be used alone. It still has to be used with eye cream or eye gel to utilize its moisture-locking factors to keep the nutrients of the essence in the skin to achieve the best effect.

The essence wins in penetration and concentration. The essence has small molecules, strong penetration, and more obvious effects. It has a more solid and long-term effect on anti-aging and firming. The eye cream molecules are larger and can stay in the epidermis and retain moisture. Both are essential for perfect eye skin.

Eye serum has less emulsifier and a more refreshing texture. Less thickener, more watery touch, quick penetration, no sticky feeling. Without thickeners, emulsifiers and other preparations that actually have no nutritional value, the maintenance ingredients can be more refined and the effects can be seen more quickly.

Main differences:

Refreshing degree: eye essence>eye cream;

Active ingredient concentration: eye serum > eye cream;

Moisturizing degree: eye cream>eye essence;

How to use eye essence and eye cream together:

Eye essence molecules are small and easily absorbed. They are effective in anti-wrinkle, removing fine lines and eye bags, but their moisturizing effect is poor.

Eye cream has a good moisturizing effect, but its function of removing fine lines is relatively poor, so it must be used in combination with eye essence.

Eye gel has the same moisturizing effect as eye cream, but it is not as greasy and is more refreshing.

The correct way to use it is to use eye cream after using eye essence. As for gel, it can replace eye cream, but it cannot replace eye essence.

However, these three types all belong to the general category of eye cream, and all protect the skin around the eyes.
