Press your temple with your thumb, and use the side of your index finger to scrape the upper and lower eyelids from the inside to the outside. Apply gently from the inside to the outside to smooth the eye skin. Apply three to four times on the upper and lower eyelids until the eye cream is completely absorbed by the skin. Be sure to apply gentle force to avoid allergies and redness around the eyes due to friction.
