How carrots can benefit the skin around the eyes

Everyone knows that carrots are good for the eyes, but not everyone realises that they are hugely beneficial to the skin around the eyes too. According to iFocusHealth, drinking carrot juice regularly may not be all that evident to those around you, but you will certainly notice a change in your energy levels, your digestion, and the overall quality of your skin. Certainly, drinking fresh juice is always going to be a better option than taking your vitamins in a pill form, and the many nutrients in carrot juice will serve you well for years to come.

Raw carrots are obviously very healthy vegetables to eat for a number of different reasons. First of all, they are extremely high in fiber, which will help to fill the stomach, cleanse the digestive system, and suppress the appetite. But, because carrots are rich in a number of nutrients such as potassium, essential oils, and antioxidants, they are also able to help with many different health problems.

When it comes to taking care of your skin, it always helps to have nutrients in their natural form, rather than taking a pill or using a topical treatment that contains a less potent version. By simply drinking carrot juice, you will gain access to nutrients such as vitamins A, vitamin C, carotenoids, potassium, antifungal, and antibacterial substances that are ideal for people who suffer from acne.

Which is why we loved the fact that we saw the humble carrot as one of the main ingredients on Dr. Hauschka Eye Contour Day Balm. This product helps skins elasticity, minimises the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and rotects the delicate skin around the eyes. Skin is moisturised and firmed.

Cleanse with Cleansing Cream or Cleansing Milk then refresh using Facial Toner or Clarifying Toner. Warm a small amount of Eye Contour Day Balm (about the size of a grain of rice) between the tips of your fingers and, without pulling or dragging skin, gently apply a thin, even layer to the eye area, starting from the inside corner and working outwards.

Active Ingredients:

Carrot, calendula and anthyllis soothe delicate skin while apricot kernel oil, jojoba oil and beeswax moisturise, soften and smooth dry skin and fine lines.
