The components that cope with wrinkles are: hyaluronic acid, microcollagen, retinol, vitamins A, E and C, argilerine - a natural analogue of Botox, which "freezes" the folds of the epidermis.
- Masks. Manufacturers do not often offer masks for the skin around the eyes (after all, this is the prerogative of home care, where they can be quickly prepared and used). However, in the lines of professional cosmetics you can find such a product, and it is very expensive.

Such moments also need to be taken into account, so only a competent specialist after a thorough examination can choose the optimal program of salon procedures.
