“A powerful and nourishing eye jelly.”
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: opuntia ficus-indica seed oil, cetearyl alcohol.

“This ultra-hydrating formula smooths across the under-eye, improving skin luminosity, reducing the appearance of dark circles and keeping lines and wrinkles at bay.”
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.
This ingredient cereus grandiflorus flower extract might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.

“Prickly Pear Seed Oil – Helps to brighten hyperpigmentation such as dark spots and dark circles.”

Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Cereus grandiflorus flower extract, Ascophyllum nodosum extract + 2 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (cereus grandiflorus flower extract) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is some human evidence for this effect in skin, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best antioxidants.
