Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "Facetheory - Ocuwake Eye Cream EYE1 with Chamomile, Vitamin C, Liquorice, Meiview and Hexylresorcinol" works well for improving skin hydration This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Humectants in this product (urea and glycerin) 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). Emollients in this formulation (argania spinosa kernel oil, oryza sativa bran oil, cetyl alcohol, coco-caprylate and polyglyceryl-6 stearate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: sodium ascorbyl phosphate and lactic acid
