Product Summary

"REVOLUTION SKINCARE - Cooling Cucumber Eye Gel" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Urea and glycerin 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). Squalane and pentaerythrityl tetraethylhexanoate in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

Irritation risk

What does the product description say?

Lightweight and airy, the intensely moisturising eye gel locks in hydration for long-lasting, touchable softness, making it the equivalent of a pamper evening with cucumber slices over your eyes.

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.

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: squalane, pentaerythrityl tetraethylhexanoate.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: urea

Glycerin3.3% - 5%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

Squalane0.5% - 1.15%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

An oil naturally present in skin. Works as an emollient to soften the skin and form a protective layer on its surface without a greasy feeling.

Urea1.2% - 1.8%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

Naturally present in skin (urea makes up about 7% of natural moisturizing factors in skin). Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Also has a positive effect on the skin barrier beyond the humectant action. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients. Is an exfoliating ingredient when used in high concentrations

Pentaerythrityl tetraethylhexanoate2.7% - 4%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

Used to create a nice product consistency while softening the upper layer of the skin

Cucumis sativus fruit extract0.1% - 0.3%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Insufficient!

Might be somewhat helpful in reducing hyperpigmentation and neutralizing free radicals but its typical concentration in a product is too low for having an effect

Anti-aging

What does the product description say?

An enrichment of potent yet skin-loving Glycerin encourages the appearance of a deeply hydrated and replenished complexion, allowing you to embrace the look of brighter, more youthful under-eye skin with a lit-from-within glow.

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.
