On the skin
What this bottle brings
- 01
Softens fine lines around eyes
- 02
Supports a lifted orbital look
- 03
Cushions the periorbital zone with oils
Why this exists
The orbital area is the first part of the face to show sleep debt, expression, and gradual loss of suppleness, yet it is also the area most often overwhelmed by eye creams that are either too thin to matter or too heavy to sit comfortably. This formula is built to answer that imbalance with a working peptide core, a skin-compatible lipid phase, and humectant support chosen specifically for the periorbital zone. Hexapeptide-11 is paired with Dipalmitoyl Hydroxyproline, while Sodium PCA helps restore moisture in skin that loses it quickly around the eyes. Jojoba, Borage, Strawberry, Blueberry seed oils, and Mango Seed Butter create a soft cushion without turning the formula greasy, so the area feels nourished rather than burdened. The result is a focused eye cream that fits the needs of the thinnest skin on the face within a considered morning and night ritual.
Inside the bottle
The key actives
02
Sodium PCA
Sodium PCA
Helps restore moisture to the periorbital skin, where hydration is often lost faster than elsewhere on the face.
03
Vitamin C
Ascorbyl Palmitate
Provides a stable vitamin C derivative that contributes antioxidant support within the cream's lipid base.
04
Vitamin E
Tocopherol
Adds antioxidant support to help round out the formula's protective, comfort-focused oil phase.
On the skin
Rich but not heavy, with a soft cushion from the lipid base. It spreads smoothly across the orbital area and settles without a greasy finish. Designed to sit comfortably under morning or night ritual layers.
The application
How to layer this
-
1
Apply to clean skin
Use after cleansing, once any toner, mist, or serum has fully settled. A small amount is enough for both eyes.
-
2
Press around the orbital zone
Gently tap along the under-eye area and orbital bone, keeping the product away from the lash line. Use light pressure rather than rubbing.
-
3
Layer before moisturiser
In the morning and at night, place this step before your moisturiser in the ritual. Allow it to absorb briefly before moving to the next layer.
What to expect
On the skin, over time
Day 1
The eye area feels comfortably cushioned and less dry after application. The finish sits smoothly and does not feel overly heavy on the skin.
Week 1
The under-eye area can begin to look a little more settled and less drawn, especially when used consistently morning and night. Fine lines may appear softer in how they read at rest.
Week 4
With steady use, the orbital zone can look more supported and better hydrated. The overall impression is of a smoother, more rested eye area rather than a dramatic overnight change.
The deeper detail
The formulation, the provenance, the standard
Formulation
Aqua leads the formula, followed by Glycerin and a calibrated organic oil blend. Coconut Alkanes and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride contribute the lightweight emollient phase. Jojoba Seed Oil (organic) provides the primary skin-compatible lipid. Sodium PCA restores the natural moisturising factor of the periorbital skin. Dipalmitoyl Hydroxyproline supports the dermal collagen matrix with a lipid-conjugated proline delivery that aids skin penetration. Borago Officinalis (Borage) Seed Oil (organic) contributes gamma-linolenic acid. Castor, Fragaria (Strawberry), and Vaccinium (Blueberry) seed oils round the omega-rich lipid base. Hexapeptide-11 is the targeted peptide active, supported by Phytosterols, Mangifera (Mango) Seed Butter (organic), and Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract (organic). Ascorbyl Palmitate provides the Vitamin C; Tocopherol provides Vitamin E. Rhus Verniciflua / Rhus Succedanea fruit waxes give the formula its soft structure. Preservation is gentle and EU-compliant : Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate. The fragrance is naturally derived and fully declared in the INCI.

Heavy at first
Thick at first, then sinks in.

solid but fragrance bugs me
Tiny bit goes round both eyes, the tip's dead handy and it sits fine under concealer. Eye area looks less tired and no slipping on the lash line which is brilliant. Only gripe is the fragrance, it's faint but I'd rather have none at all near my eyes tbh. Still use it though.
-
does the job
Tap on a bit before concealer and it's just nice. Eyes feel cushioned, lines softer by lunch.
-
yes
Sits under concealer and layers well over serum. I noticed my under-eyes felt less dry by late afternoon, though the pot is a bit small for the price.

proper eye cream
Absorbs cleanly, no shine, concealer goes on top without sliding. Rice grain amount does both eyes perfectly.

Fresh Glow Boost
Two weeks in, my eye area looks brighter and it sits quietly under concealer for a fresher finish honestly.

Layering under concealer
Layering note, it goes on light beneath concealer, helping the eye area look smoother through morning without greasy layer.
