“What it is: A pro-level eye cream, with triple oligo peptides, that hydrates, firms, and smooths the appearance of eye skin while also diminishing the look of lines and wrinkles.”
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, pantolactone.
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, caprylic/capric triglyceride.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide 3, dipeptide-2, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-5
“What it is: A pro-level eye cream, with triple oligo peptides, that hydrates, firms, and smooths the appearance of eye skin while also diminishing the look of lines and wrinkles.”
This product contains dipeptide-2, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-5. These ingredients might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.
This product contains antioxidants (chrysin) 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.
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: chrysin.

"SOBEL SKIN Rx - Oligo Peptide Eye Cream" has a good moisturizing formula. The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Glycerin, pantolactone and sodium hyaluronate 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 3, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, persea gratissima oil, butyrospermum parkii butter and caprylic/capric triglyceride) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
There are some common irritants in this product, including ingredients that do not have benefits for the skin. We assess the overall irritancy of this moisturizer to be medium. For a detailed overview of all potential irritants: click here
