#1 Eye Cream . Eye cream is very important as our skin around the eye area are more delicate than elsewhere on the face. Also, there are different concerns such as “dark circles”, “eye bags”, “wrinkles”, “puffiness”… So finding a good eye-cream can makes a huge difference. Also, a good eye cream can help your under eye concealer look even better! Here are few recommendations:

#2 Blue light block glasses. Blue light from screens can cause headaches, blurry vision, and eye strain! Also, when using digital device during the night time, blue light from screens can disrupt your natural sleep patterns. Our bodies associate blue light with daytime, so being exposed to it when you’re trying to go to bed “pushes our internal clock later so that it’s harder to fall asleep and harder to wake up in the morning,” says Cathy Goldstein, an assistant professor of neurology at the University of Michigan Sleep Disorders Center.

Read the link below from “all about vision” website and know more about effect on blue light. https://www.allaboutvision.com/en-in/digital-devices/blue-light/

Therefore, I highly recommended wearing a blue light block glasses while using digital devices. Gunnar Optiks Eyewear/Ellipse, Amber Tint – Patented Lens, Reduce Digital Eye Strain, Block 65% of Harmful Blue Light $65 (Remember, the amber tint may look a little unusual, but it does tend to block blue light more efficiently than a regular lens. )

#3 Sleep mask

The first advantage of wearing a sleep mask is that it blocks light! While we are trying to sleep, the two biggest distractions from that rest can be noise and light. Another benefit is that a sleep mask can actually help to protect the skin around your eyes from damage while you sleep. While sleeping, many people tend to push the side or front of their faces into their pillow or mattress. This may only be done for part of the night, but it can still leave an imprint on your skin from the wrinkles in your sheets or pillows. Therefore, I really recommend a SILK mask, because silk is the most smooth, easy to breath, and natural material.

My top recommendation: Alaska Bear Natural Silk Sleep Mask $9.99
