“Eye Butter Eye Cream”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: butyrospermum parkii butter, persea gratissima oil.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
Anti-agingButyrospermum parkii butterNot delivered
“One of the EWG's Safest Eye Creams Eye Butter combines an age old secret to eye care with pharmaceutical-grade ingredients to soften eye tissue, reduce fine lines, and tighten the skin.”
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 - butyrospermum parkii butter - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.

Product summary
Based on the ingredients included, "Keys - Eye Butter Eye Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Keys - Eye Butter Eye Cream ticks this box. Aloe barbadensis leaf juice and cucumis sativus fruit water in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (ceramide np, persea gratissima oil and butyrospermum parkii butter) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
Ingredient callouts
- As a plus, this moisturizer also contains ceramides (ceramide np 1.50% - 2.20%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
