Help To Reduce Eye Wrinkles with
NIVEA Q10
The skin around your eyes is delicate and prone to wrinkles like crow's feet, which can develop over time. Learn how simple habits and targeted skincare can help you maintain a youthful, radiant eye area.
What causes
Eye Wrinkles?
Under eye wrinkles are a natural part of getting older, but several factors can influence how early they appear and how visible they become.
One of the biggest causes is the skin's gradual loss of Collagen and Elastin, the proteins that help keep it smooth and firm. As these levels drop with age, skin becomes thinner and less able to bounce back from repeated movements like smiling, squinting, or frowning, all of which can lead to fine lines over time.
Other contributing factors include:
- Sun exposure, which can speed up the skin's ageing process
- Smoking, which reduces oxygen and nutrients reaching the skin
- Dehydration, which makes fine lines more noticeable
- Lack of sleep, which can affect skin repair and recovery
APPEARANCE OF DARK CIRCLES?
While it's important to remember that no skincare product can completely eliminate crow's feet or under eye wrinkles, there are effective ways to help soften their appearance and support your skin's natural resilience.
A consistent skincare routine is key. Using gentle, hydrating products designed specifically for the delicate eye area can help smooth and plump the skin, reducing the look of fine lines over time. This includes creams and serums formulated to target wrinkles around the eyes with ingredients like Coenzyme Q10, which supports your skin's natural energy and renewal.
In addition to skincare, simple habits such as gentle facial massage and avoiding repetitive squinting or rubbing can make a difference.
Which skincare ingredients can help with
Crow's Feet?
- Coenzyme Q10 (Q10):Supports your skin's natural energy production and helps renew cells, making skin appear smoother and more resilient.
- Hyaluronic acid:A powerful hydrator that attracts and holds moisture, helping to plump up fine lines and improve skin texture.
- Peptides:Small chains of amino acids that could play a role in the production of more Collagen, aiding firmness and elasticity.
- Creatine:Enhances the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, helping your skin's youthful appearance.
- Antioxidants:Ingredients like Vitamin E and some plant extracts protect your skin from environmental stressors that can accelerate ageing.

5 step skincare routine to help reduce
Eye Wrinkles
When it comes to smoothing the appearance of crow's feet and wrinkles around your eyes, consistency is key. Following a simple, targeted skincare routine using products designed to hydrate, firm and protect your skin can make a real difference over time.
Here's a 5-step routine featuring some of NIVEA's most effective Q10 anti-wrinkle products:
Cleansing is the first, and perhaps most important, step in any routine. Removing daily dirt, UV filters, and makeup helps your skin reset and allows other products to work more effectively. Be gentle, especially around your eyes, where the skin is thinnest and most delicate.
Once your skin is clean, it's ready to soak in the benefits of active ingredients. This is where a targeted serum can really make a difference. The NIVEA Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Expert Dual Action Serum is designed to help reduce the appearance of even deep wrinkles, thanks to its blend of pure Q10 and innovative Glycostop technology, which helps protect your skin's Collagen from Glycation, a natural process that can lead to premature ageing. This serum works beautifully for wrinkles across your face, particularly around your eyes and mouth, and it stimulates hydration, for instantly soft and smooth skin.
The skin around your eyes is thinner and more sensitive than the rest of your face, which is why it needs a little extra care, especially when it comes to under eye wrinkles and crow's feet. A dedicated eye cream can help hydrate, protect and smooth this delicate area without overwhelming it.
The NIVEA Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Power Firming Eye Cream is specially formulated to meet these needs. With Q10, Hyaluronic Acid and Creatine, it helps to visibly soften the look of wrinkles, reduce puffiness and reduce crow's feet. The lightweight texture penetrates easily and is suitable for sensitive skin around your eyes. With regular use, your eye area can appear more resilient and youthful looking.

Together, these five steps create a gentle yet effective routine for caring for crow's feet and under eye wrinkles, helping to support your skin's natural vitality.

7 ways to help prevent and mitigate
Eye Wrinkles
Protecting your skin from daily sun exposure is one of the most important steps in preventing premature ageing, especially around your delicate eye area. UV rays penetrate the skin and can break down Collagen and Elastin, the proteins responsible for keeping skin firm. Over time, this damage can lead to fine lines, wrinkles, and pigment spots, making crow's feet more noticeable.
The NIVEA SUN UV Face Anti-Age Q10 Cream SPF 50 offers advanced protection against UVA, UVB and HEV light, while being specially developed for delicate facial skin. The formula, with Q10 and Licochalcone A, supports your skin's natural defences and helps prevent the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by the sun. Lightweight and moisturising, it's ideal for everyday use, even around the eye area.
