Product Summary
Based on the ingredients included, "Zelens - Triple Action Advanced Eye Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Zelens - Triple Action Advanced Eye Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (acetyl octapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-5, glycerin, sodium hyaluronate and soluble collagen) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, dimethicone, cyclopentasiloxane, caprylyl glycol and isohexadecane 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.
Ingredient callouts
- This moistruizer also contains peptides (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.10% - 0.20%, palmitoyl oligopeptide 0.15% - 0.25%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.15% - 0.25% and acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.15% - 0.25%). Peptides is a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of amino-acids. Our skin produces peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, 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 peptides in skincare are helpful. They 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.

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, sodium hyaluronate.
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: dimethicone, cyclopentasiloxane.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl octapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-5, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7
A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

A typically plant-derived compound that is supposed mimic human collagen. Cannot penetrate the skin barrier so is not particularly useful in skincare products beyond attracting water to the upper layer of the skin
A silicone that helps improve the product texture and spreadability. Can absorb oil creating a short-term mattifying effect on the skin
Used to preserve products, dissolve other ingredients and create a nice product texture
Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin
Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture

A silicone that forms a light film on the skin surface helping to bind water and temporarily absorb oils creating a matt and powdery feel

Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
With an expert mix of potent active ingredients, suspended in a Hyaluronic Acid base enriched with anti-ageing marine collagen, Zelens' Triple Action Advanced Eye Cream makes light work of wrinkles, bags and the circles of darkness… A unique botanical blend (composed of molecules from six soothing, toning and regenerative plant molecules) works alongside Acetyl Octapeptide-3 – a substance that inhibits neurotransmitters which cause the contraction of muscles and in turn, formation of fine lines and furrows; Sesame protein smoothes and instantly tightens the skin; Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 demonstrates 'anti-swelling' properties by reducing water retention and ensuring optimal lymph drainage and Palmiitoyl Oligopeptide & Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 help to eliminate the blood-originated pigments responsible for dark circles.
