Your eyelid skin is unique7

Thin7

Eyelid skin is among the thinnest on the body, allowing for the delicate movements but providing less natural protection.

Sensitive

Packed with nerve endings and containing fewer oil glands, it can react quickly to irritants, allergens, and changes in the environment.

Fragile

With very little cushioning beneath the surface, eyelid skin is more susceptible to dryness, sun damage, and early signs of ageing.
