Peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.30% - 0.55%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.30% - 0.55% and dipeptide-2 0.25% - 0.45%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
Adenosine 0.30% - 0.55%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 1.40% - 1.70% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.25% - 0.45%, lactobacillus ferment 0.45% - 0.70%, panthenol 1.40% - 1.70% and glycerin 2.90% - 3.60%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What can the product work for?

Anti-aging

What does the product description say?

Energize the look and feel of your eyes rejuvenate and refresh for well-rested, youthful + healthy-looking eyes.

Source: Sephora

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.

These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: ascorbyl glucoside, dipeptide-2, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1.

Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

adenosine 0.3% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Might help improve cell turnover and reduce inflammation in skin. One study shows that the ingredients might be able to help reduce dynamic wrinkles (for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead)

ascorbyl glucoside 1.4% - 1.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

A vitamin C derivative that is more stable but less potent than pure form of vitamin C. Has a potential to boost collagen production, nutralise free radicals and reduce hyperpigmentation, but the required concentration is likely to be much higher than for the pure form of vitamin C, limiting the ingredient's effectiveness in products

palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.3% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles

Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

What Else You Need to Know This gentle, fragrance, free formula provides immediate + all-day hydration, layers well under makeup and helps under-eye makeup look better throughout the day.

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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, caprylyl glycol.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: dipeptide-2, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, panthenol

punica granatum seed extract 0.4% - 0.6%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.3% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles

palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.3% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles

Evens skin tone

The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: ascorbyl glucoside, chrysin.

chrysin 0.25% - 0.45%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

Might be helpful in reducing fine lines and wrinkles, as well as lightening the skin, but solid evidence is missing. Could somewhat help in reducing the darkness of the under-eye area. Helps to neutralise free radicals in skin

ascorbyl glucoside 1.4% - 1.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

n-hydroxysuccinimide 0.25% - 0.45%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

Is claimed to be able to brighten skin tone by removing some blood-related pigmented compounds in skin (hemoglobin and related elements) but solid research is missing. Can be irritating

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (ascorbyl glucoside, chrysin, ilex paraguariensis leaf extract) 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.

ascorbyl glucoside 1.4% - 1.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

ilex paraguariensis leaf extract 0.6% - 0.9%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

A plant extract that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. Can contain fragrand compounds like linalool that can be irritating
