Benefits
Promise: Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
Rich in essential fatty acids, the formula is carefully designed to comfort and hydrate without overloading skin, keeping the delicate area surrounding eyes plumped to minimise the appearance of fine lines.
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.
This ingredient squalene might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.

Promise: Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Rich in essential fatty acids, the formula is carefully designed to comfort and hydrate without overloading skin, keeping the delicate area surrounding eyes plumped to minimise the appearance of 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:
glycerin, lactobacillus ferment.
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: butyrospermum parkii butter, helianthus annuus seed oil.
| Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| rosa canina seed oil | HIGH | | |
| beta-sitosterol | HIGH | | |
| butyrospermum parkii butter | HIGH | | |

Other benefit: Anti-oxidation
This product contains antioxidants (squalene) 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.
| Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| squalene | MEDIUM | | |
| butyrospermum parkii butter | LOW | | |
| carthamus tinctorius seed oil | LOW | | |
