Etude House Enlivening Amino-AG Eye Treatment
Works for
MoisturizingCyclopentasiloxane, Triethylhexanoin + 12 moreWorks
“A silky gel-cream eye treatment that nourishes the delicate eye area, reduces puffiness and minimizes the appearance of dark circles and fine lines.”
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:
alanyl glutamine, betaine.
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: dimethicone, squalane.
Anti-agingAlanyl glutamineMay help
“A silky gel-cream eye treatment that nourishes the delicate eye area, reduces puffiness and minimizes the appearance of dark circles and fine lines.”
This product contains alanyl glutamine. This ingredient 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.
Evens skin toneDipotassium glycyrrhizateNot delivered
“Help reduce hyperpigmentation and minimize the appearance of dark spots by helping inhibit melanin synthesis.”
Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Epilobium angustifolium flower/leaf/stem extract, Lactobacillus ferment + 4 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (epilobium angustifolium flower/leaf/stem extract) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
