Cicatricure Blur and Filler Antiwrinkle Eye Treatment
Works for
MoisturizingPetrolatum, Acetyl hexapeptide-8 + 8 moreWorks well
“Formulated with vitamin K, this moisturizing eye cream hydrates the delicate skin around the eye area, smoothing the skin for a younger looking appearance.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, butylene glycol.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, petrolatum.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-8, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, petrolatum
Anti-agingAcetyl hexapeptide-8, Palmitoyl oligopeptide + 1 moreMay help
“Formulated with vitamin K, this moisturizing eye cream hydrates the delicate skin around the eye area, smoothing the skin for a younger looking appearance.”
This product contains acetyl hexapeptide-8, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7. These ingredients might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.

Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.40% - 0.90%, palmitoyl oligopeptide 0.45% - 1.10% and acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.80% - 1.20%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
- Humectants (glycerin 3.50% - 5.20% and acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.80% - 1.20%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
