Recipes for tightening eyelid masks at home


The skin of the eyelids is extremely delicate, thin and quite sensitive, as it is practically devoid of a protective lipid layer and collagen fibers and at the same time is exposed to enormous stress and negative external factors every day.

That is why it is in the eye area that the first facial and age wrinkles can be seen, and over the years, drooping (ptosis) of the upper and lower eyelids occurs, which is often accompanied by swelling.

In addition to special cosmetic products, simple tightening eyelid masks that are prepared at home have an undoubted effect.

Combinations of natural components make it possible to enhance the effect of each other and thereby achieve the desired result, therefore regular procedures help reduce the signs of aging of the skin in this eye area and increase its elasticity.

Composition of homemade eye masks against wrinkles

  1. The basis. The effect of the mask is due to the presence of active substances contained in the main ingredient of the mask:
  • vegetables - zucchini, carrots, cabbage;
  • cereals – bran, oatmeal, sprouted cereals;
  • green crops - parsley, cilantro;
  • fruits - bananas, melons, peaches;
  • fermented milk products – cottage cheese, sour cream;

Contraindications for applying masks

Contraindications to applying masks are associated with manufacturing errors, characteristics of a person’s health status, and individual intolerance. These include:

  1. Products with specific qualities:
  • vegetables and fruits with a high acid content - lemon, strawberries, tomatoes. They have a whitening effect, but are aggressive on the thin skin of the epithelium and mucous membrane of the eyes.
  • products with a pungent, irritating odor and taste - ginger, lemon balm.
  1. Infectious eye diseases - conjunctivitis, blepharitis, purulent inflammation.

  3. Mechanical eye injuries.
  4. Use of low-quality components that have expired.

At what age can masks around the eyes be used?

The question of starting to use eye masks is purely individual.

Factors affecting the condition of the eyelid skin:

  • A woman’s hormonal background determines the production of sebaceous glands and the structure of the skin. Dry, thin skin is most susceptible to rapid aging.
  • Active facial expressions, habit of squinting.
  • Influence of natural factors. Wind, sun, and salty air dry out the skin and contribute to the formation of premature wrinkles.
  • Eye diseases associated with itching and burning. Scratching and lacrimation negatively affect the condition of the epithelium.

The presence of risk factors requires active eyelid skin care, starting from the age of 20. It is recommended to start preventive use of drugs from 31 to 32 years of age. At this age, a woman’s hormonal background begins to change. The ability to objectively assess the condition of your own skin is the main motivation for starting to take preventive measures to care for the eyelid area.

General recommendations for applying compositions to the skin around the eyes

Correct implementation of the technique for applying eye skin products can protect against damage to the mucous membrane of the eyes and relieve discomfort during the procedure.

  • Procedure time – 15 – 25 minutes.
  • The remaining product must first be removed with a soft cloth, and then rinsed with water or a herbal decoction.
  • At the end of the procedure, treat the skin with daily eye cream.
  • The effectiveness of using the mask occurs when the procedures are repeated at intervals of 3 days. After 1 month the ingredients of the product should be changed.

Use only matte eyeshadows

Girls with drooping eyelids are strictly prohibited from wearing pearlescent shadows. Their texture will quickly spread, and the shimmer will make your eyes look downcast. It makes more sense to give your vote to matte shadows. They are easier to shade, apply evenly and create a beautiful translucent haze.

Many matte eyeshadows come in stick and pencil forms for easier application. OK Beauty supports the trend and presents Color Salute Slide & Stay eye pencils with a weightless matte texture that will complement both day and evening makeup.

The dream of a perfect smokey eye will come true thanks to Robin, Muzo, Galaxy and Cobalt pencils. Despite the shimmering particles in the composition, they glide easily, are instantly shaded with your fingers or an angled brush and allow you to fix any make-up idea.

Using them to create a smokey eyelid is incredibly easy:

  • Highlight the inner corners of your eyes with a light pencil.
  • Take a dark-colored pencil and start moving from the center of the eyelid to the outer corners.
  • Blend the pigment over the entire surface of the eyelid to create a smooth gradient from light to dark.
  • Avoid graphic shading and create a hazy effect. The visual absence of boundaries will help raise the upper zone of the eye.

Causes of sagging skin

Who is to blame for the fact that the eyelids have lost their tone and treacherously crawled down, succumbing to gravity? First of all, the years lived. They are:

  • “steal” collagen and elastin from the skin, which a mature body can no longer produce in the required quantities;
  • they deprive the epidermis of hyaluronic acid, and with it the feeling of pleasant “fullness” and elasticity;
  • accelerate the accumulation of free radicals that damage healthy cells.


With age, the skin loses the ability to produce substances necessary for elasticity.
However, there is nothing to blame for the merciless time if you yourself actively help him paint his face with the help of:

  • strict diets and a diet poor in vitamins and minerals;
  • non-compliance with sleep and rest schedules;
  • bad habits;
  • inability to relax in order to cope with stress;
  • love for tanning - both natural and obtained under ultraviolet lamps of a solarium;
  • too generous use of decorative cosmetics.

The lifting procedure is designed to restore the face to a fresh look, tighten sagging eyelids and smooth out wrinkles. In difficult cases, it is performed surgically or by hardware; in mild cases, it is performed using masks with a specially selected composition.

Day and evening makeup for the impending eyelid

If classic eye makeup is based strictly on the crease of the eyelid, then it is absolutely not suitable for those who have it overhanging. It’s just that the fold is completely hidden by the skin, so such makeup will not give any positive effect. Therefore, the scheme is constructed in a different way - this fold is replaced by an overhang. That is, the shape of the eyelid is built directly along the overhanging part.

Eye with drooping eyelid
Eye with drooping eyelid

We do step-by-step daytime makeup for drooping eyelids and enlarged eyes:

  1. On the open eye, the outline of a fold is drawn along the overhang. It is important to use shades that are as close to natural as possible - dark gray, brown, beige and other natural tones;

    Darkening the fold
    Darkening the fold

  2. Directly along the fold, on the lowest line towards the moving eyelid, a thin strip of dark color is drawn. In the future, it will replace the usual transition between the eyelid and eyebrow;
  3. The pencil line is shaded with a thick, angled brush towards the eyebrow. You need to rub the paints carefully so that the shadow is uniform but clear;

  4. Afterwards, the movable part of the eyelid is corrected. With strongly overhanging folds, it is likely that it will not be visible at all. Therefore, it is simply pointless to perform any complex techniques. But if a fold is clearly visible at the outer or inner corner, this should be used. Very light shades of shadows are applied to them - satin, pearl or highlighter;
  5. Highlighted areas are also shaded well. You also need to lightly line the eye from below with a dark color so that the makeup looks symmetrical and neat. For those with an impending eyelid, lining the arrow is also perfect;
  6. The arrow, like the fold, is drawn directly along the overhang. When the eye is open, a tail is drawn with a pencil or liner; in the future, strokes from the middle of the eyelid and the lower lash line will be applied to it. The ponytail should be small (especially if it is a daily make-up). We also recommend using natural shades - brown or dark graphite;
  7. All that remains is to finish the arrows (from the middle of the upper eyelid and the middle of the lower), put a few light strokes above the shading line and highlight the eyelashes with mascara.

Softly darkening the corner with an arrow and shadows will create the effect of large, open eyes.

Evening makeup techniques differ from daytime ones in the brightness of colors. Brown shades are being replaced by more catchy black, burgundy, blue and others that match the color and image.

New Year's Smokey Ice
New Year's Smokey Ice

New Year's smokey eye makeup for drooping eyelids with step-by-step photos:

  1. The skin of the eyelids is prepared using foundation and powder. You can use both special products and regular pastel shadows (strictly matte);
  2. Face sculpture or dark brown shadows determine the location of the imaginary fold. You don't need to pay attention to the actual crease of the eyelid. Instead, the depression between the moving and stationary areas is darkened. To check, you need to click on the selected location. If the brush fails there, then you are doing everything right;
  3. To make bright makeup look organic, you need to apply shadows with a soft round brush and soften the contour with a flat brush. Please note that with overhanging eyelids, the shading is done quite wide, approximately 70% of the fixed part;

  4. After the shadow is applied to the outer corner and under the eyelashes on the lower eyelid. To create a “cat” silhouette, you need to draw a thin tail and a shaded center with soft movements. The result will be a neat shadow arrow;
  5. Using light shades, the pattern is duplicated throughout the entire eyelid, but its outline should not reach the borders. After applying cosmetics, the colors are gently shaded;
  6. The main specificity of this makeup is to draw the imaginary fold as much as possible. To do this, using a thin brush and dark shadows, it is additionally drawn and deepened. The outer corner of the eye is worked out in the same tones, the “bird” or arrow now appears more clearly;

  7. Light matte shadows are applied to the main part of the moving eyelid. Afterwards you need to shade the borders and make a thin arrow between the eyelashes. To complete such a soft smokey eye, false eyelashes will help, which will create another shadow on drooping eyelids.
