Did using eye cream cause fat particles? Eye cream says it won't take the blame

Many girls' understanding of fat particles is that they apply too much eye cream and it is not absorbed, which leads to fat particles. In fact, the formation of fat particles is not as simple as applying too much eye cream. If you know the real reasons that lead to the formation of fat particles, it will be easy to deal with them.

Eye cream makes me fat particles

Generally speaking, there is no necessary relationship between the growth of fat particles and the use of eye cream. Using an eye cream that is too moisturizing and has strong penetrating power can at most accelerate the formation of fat particles, but it is definitely not the real culprit of the formation of fat particles.

How are fat particles formed?

The so-called "fat granules" are actually two things. The first is syringoma, and the second is miliary papules. The cause of syringoma is unknown. The cause of milia is tiny wounds on the eyelids (which may be due to excessive dryness, strain or sunburn). When the skin is repairing itself, it will replenish more keratin to plug the wound. If it encounters eye creams with irritating ingredients, inflammation will occur and the skin will secrete too much keratin. Once too much keratin is secreted, small raised particles will pile up. Because the outside is covered with a stratum corneum, it feels like hard white cysts. This is what we often call "fat particles" - miliary papules.

How to prevent fat particles

Pay attention to sun protection

In terms of prevention, the first thing is to pay attention to sun protection and avoid small wounds caused by sunburn, which will promote the formation of milia.

Gentle eye care

The skin around the eyes is thin and fragile. When performing eye care, be gentle and avoid pulling or straining the skin. It is best to apply eye cream in the same way as playing the piano.

Can I still use eye cream if I have fat particles?

When fat particles appear, it is probably because there are small wounds around the eyes. At this time, sun protection is the first priority. You can choose to wear sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun when you go out. Once the fat particles are healed, you can still use eye cream.

If you always think that eye cream causes the formation of "fat particles", then you can switch to oil-free and emulsifier-free products such as eye gel and eye gel to naturally avoid the risk of growing "fat particles".

How to eliminate eye fat particles

Many people mistake the symptoms of chestnut papules or syringomas for "fat cysts". When you are not sure which symptom it is, it is recommended to go to the hospital first to let a dermatologist make a judgment and then find the corresponding treatment method. Fat granules cannot be improved by skin care products, and this must be clearly understood. For fat particles that have already formed, the use of medical cryoexcision can make them disappear quickly. As for whether they can be cured, it is necessary to track and observe whether the fat particles around the eyes are prone to recurrence.
