I wanted to send you a little note to let you know what's in store on this week's episode. We're looking at the goal of how to get your best skin at every decade. Here's our tip of the week from top dermatologist Dr. Angeli Marto, where she's talking all about how to treat those fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes. If you look at the majority of eye creams, they only have temporary effects. They're usually ingredients that are exactly the same as in your facial moisturiser. And a lot of them simply work by basically causing moisturising effect around the eye area so it temporarily plumps up any fine lines or wrinkles.

So I would say if you're actually looking for something around the eye that's going to be of genuine benefit, the first biggest thing is actually putting sunscreen around your eyes. And the majority of us forget to do this. We've put our sunscreen on our face, but we don't take it all the way up to our upper and our lower eyelids. And 10% of skin cancers occur around your eyes. So, you know, that's the second reason why we need to be doing that. There are some good products that you can use that are safe to use around the eye area. Generally, mineral sunscreens are tolerated quite well around the eye.

Skinciticals do one called skin suiticles, mineral UVI. That's the one that I use. So I will just use E45 or a vino around my eyes just to moisturize, and then I will put the sunscreen on because the sunscreen is vital. And then in the evening, you can use some good products that are eye retinoles. So personally, I use the Murad, I retinol at night. before I go to bed. So I think sunscreen, vitamin A, is really what you want to be doing. Is anyone else kicking themselves for years of leaving that delicate eye skin unprotected

when they've been doing their SPF in the morning? Well, at least I guess now we know. Tune in on Thursday for more zero BS skincare tips from a top dermatologist.
