I get so many questions these days about Blepharitis in general & skincare/ beauty products make a large percentage of those questions.

So today we're going to talking about Blepharitis safe skincare.

You might think you can use any skincare, when suffering however this isn't always the case. A lot of products can be heavy, especially eye creams & these can irritate the eyes. Also if a product is quite highly scented to fumes can get in your eye irritating them further or even making them sting.

So if you are suffering from Blepharitis it's definitely worth taking a look at your skincare products before repurchasing.

So here are some products that I've found to be suitable.

Simple Soothing Eye Balm

This is a holy grail for me! Honestly it is the best eye cream for anyone with Blepharitis, I swear. It's so Simple (get it) that you can smother it all over your dry/ sore eyes & it won't sting or upset your eyes. It has no fragrance as well, which is ideal. Sometimes if my eyes are sore, the skin around them can get really sore too & this is perfect for that. I even keep a spare in my handbag!

Simple Hydrating Light Moisturiser

This is very much like the eye balm, in the sense that it has no fragrance & no nasty strong chemicals in it. Again this is product you can literally use anywhere, even on the eyes if needs be. It's very moisturising & a little goes a long way. I also find this to be the only facial cream I can get away with using on broken or irritated skin (ie. if you have a red nose from an allergy or cold).

Benefit Dream Screen

This product is a little bit more holiday focused, although there is no reason you can't use in your everyday skincare routine. In fact it's probably advisable if you're using the Simple moisturiser mentioned above, as that has no SPF in it.

This facial sun cream is the only one I've found that isn't super greasy & heavy. It is scented, but only very lightly so it doesn't upset my eyes. I wouldn't advise applying it to your eye area, simply throw some sunglasses on!

Simple Micellar Water

This post isn't sponsored by Simple, I promise. They just make amazing skincare for those of us sensitive eye/ skin folk. This & facial wipes are the only products I've found which don't sting my eyes when cleaning my face & especially when removing make up. I would advise the micellar water over wipes as wipes only remove a certain amount of your make up. 

Superdrug De-stressing Face Mask

Some face masks can create a lot of fumes or can simply irritate your skin if you apply them too close to your eyes. I find the more natural face mask you can find the better. I've picked this one by Superdrug as it doesn't do anything crazy, but it does refresh your skin & leave it feeling super smooth. Another thing about this mask is that it has no scrub particles in it, so they can't get in your eyes.

Hope this helped some of you struggling.

You guys might not know but I suffer from an eye condition called Blepharitis.

I have been suffering for about a year & wanted to give you guys a little update.

More so to enlighten you all of this condition, as you could be suffering but not even know!

As part of my Benefit advent calendar I got this mini tub of eye cream, quite a good gift I think!

For quite a while now I've been using a Simple eye cream, due to my endless eye problems I just felt it was better for them to be using less chemicals.
