Skincare tips: Use pea-size amount of eye cream for each eye
The area around your eyes is very sensitive and it needs a little more care as compared to the rest of the face. In fact, it is prone to dark circles and can easily reveal the signs of aging easily. You may have brought under-eye products to take care of the skin around your eyes. But if you want to know the correct way to apply them, here is a guide by cosmetologist and skincare expert Dr. Geetika Mittal Gupta. Her latest Instagram post is all about the ways to correctly apply under-eye products.

According to Dr. Geetika, here are the five steps you need to follow while applying under eye products:
1) Take a pea-size amount of eye cream or eye serum for each eye and put it on the back of your hand.
2) Start right next to the upper bridge of the nose, below the inner corner of the eye.
3) Gently dab the eye product beneath the eye, moving sideways and upward along the orbital bone of your eye until you get to the outer corner. Don't get too close to the under the eyelid.
4) Apply another pea-sized amount directly underneath the brow, along the brow bone.
5) Stick to one eye product. It's a sensitive area and you want the eye to be able to breathe.
