MoisturizingHexapeptide-48 hcl, Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 + 27 moreStrong evidence
“This silky-soft treatment brightens and intensely hydrates your delicate under-eye area both day and night.”
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:
fructose, glycerin.
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: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, squalane.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: hexapeptide-48 hcl, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tripeptide-38, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, panthenol
Anti-agingHexapeptide-48 hcl, Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 + 3 moreModerate evidence
“Powered by a potent peptide complex and energy-boosting bioactives, it visibly smooths and reduces the appearance of puffiness, while the ceramic applicator provides a cooling sensation, leaving your under-eyes looking instantly refreshed and lifted.”
This product contains hexapeptide-48 hcl, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tripeptide-38, palmitoyl tripeptide-5. 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.
