Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "Clinique - For Men Anti-Fatigue Eye Gel" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Clinique - For Men Anti-Fatigue Eye Gel ticks this box. Humectants in this product (panthenol, faex, glycerin, glycine and sodium hyaluronate) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Linoleic acid, linolenic acid, c13-14 isoparaffin and caprylyl glycol in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

Ingredient callouts

  • An effective concentration of Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - about 1.50% - 1.80%. Panthenol helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration and reduce inflammation in skin.
  • We love that there is also Linoleic Acid in this moisturizer (0.60% - 0.95%). Linoleic Acid is one of the skin's natural emollients. It supports the skin barrier and can even help reduce clogged pores.
This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: titanium dioxide, yeast extract and yeast extract
