When should you apply eye contour?
The eye contour It is applied after cleansing, that is, before the serum or before the moisturizer if you do not use serum.

Thus, when applying the serum or cream, you will do so around the area where the contour treatment is.
If you use toner after cleansing, then apply the eye contour after the toner, it is considered a product that finishes facial cleansing.

- Thinking it's just a night treatment. It is an area that is unprotected from environmental factors, an eye cream will help you with all that exposure you have during the day. There are very light and fast-absorbing eye creams that are very comfortable during the day.
