*Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available ingredient data (no ethanol/denat.; no haram or animal-derived ingredients detected). / *Brand-stated; not certified by an independent body.

A silky, fast-absorbing serum designed to target the first signs of aging on the delicate skin around the eyes and neck. It hydrates, firms, and smooths without feeling heavy or greasy, making it perfect for daily use in Mauritius's climate.

• Who it's for: Anyone noticing fine lines (crow's feet), loss of firmness around the eyes, or horizontal neck lines. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and milia-prone skin, due to its lightweight texture.
• What it does: Helps boost collagen, improves elasticity, deeply hydrates, and diminishes the appearance of wrinkles over time.
• Key Ingredients: Adenosine (MFDS-certified for wrinkle improvement), Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 (signals collagen production), Niacinamide (brightens and strengthens), and Sodium Hyaluronate (hydrates).
• Expected Outcome: Skin around the eyes appears plumper, smoother, and more youthful. Fine lines are visibly softened with consistent use.

1. Cleanse: Start with a clean face.
2. Apply Serum: Squeeze a tiny amount (half a grain of rice per eye) onto your ring finger. Gently tap along the orbital bone (the bone around your eye socket) and on any neck lines.
3. Protect/Moisturise: Follow with your daily sunscreen in the morning or a facial moisturiser in the evening to lock in the benefits.

Mindful Tip: Already using an eye cream? Finish it first to prevent waste and give your skin a consistent routine. Substitute, don't just stack.

Minimalist Routine (3-4 Steps):

1. Cleanse: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
2. Hydrate (Optional): Apply a hydrating toner or essence to prep the skin.
3. Treat with this Serum: Gently tap the To Be Youthful Eye Serum around the orbital bone and on neck lines.
4. Protect: Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher). This is crucial, as sun exposure accelerates aging around the eyes.

Minimalist Routine (3-4 Steps):

1. Double Cleanse: Use an oil cleanser to melt away sunscreen and makeup, followed by a water-based cleanser.
2. Hydrate (Optional): Apply a hydrating toner or essence.
3. Treat with this Serum: Gently tap the To Be Youthful Eye Serum around the orbital bone and on neck lines.
4. Moisturise: Apply your favourite night cream to seal in all the goodness.

Texture Rule: Always apply products from the thinnest consistency to the thickest. This lightweight serum goes on before your heavier face cream.

• Amount: Use a very small amount—about half a grain of rice is enough for both eyes. Using too much can lead to milia (tiny white bumps) in prone individuals.
• Application: Squeeze the product onto the tip of your ring finger. Gently tap—do not rub or pull—along the orbital bone (the bone structure around your eye). Avoid applying directly to the eyelids or lash line unless the product is specifically designed for it. You can also apply a small amount to horizontal neck lines.
• Frequency: Can be used twice daily, in your morning (AM) and evening (PM) routines. If you have very sensitive skin, start with PM use only for the first week.

This serum is designed for consistent, daily use to achieve the best results.

• Daily: Use in both your AM and PM routines.
• AM Routine: Apply after cleansing/toning and before your moisturiser and sunscreen.
• PM Routine: Apply after cleansing/toning and before your night cream or facial oil.

Compatibility Note: This gentle serum is compatible with most other skincare actives. If you use strong exfoliants (AHAs/BHAs) or retinoids, apply them first, let them absorb, and then gently tap this eye serum around the eyes, being careful not to overlap on freshly exfoliated skin.

• Immediately: The delicate skin around the eyes will feel hydrated, soothed, and appear slightly plumper due to ingredients like Sodium Hyaluronate.
• Within 2-4 Weeks: You may notice that the skin feels smoother and more supple. Makeup may apply more easily without settling into fine dehydration lines.
• After 8+ Weeks: With consistent twice-daily use, the appearance of fine lines and crow's feet may be visibly reduced. The skin around the eyes should feel firmer and more elastic, thanks to the cumulative effects of Adenosine and peptides.

Individual results may vary. Consistent use and daily sun protection are key to seeing and maintaining results.

The Myth: "I can just use my regular face moisturiser around my eyes."

The Reality: While you can, it's not always ideal. The skin around your eyes is much thinner and more delicate than the rest of your face. Face creams can sometimes be too rich or contain fragrances and active ingredients at concentrations that are too high for this sensitive area, potentially causing irritation, puffiness, or milia. This eye serum is specifically formulated to be lightweight, easily absorbed, and packed with targeted ingredients like Adenosine and peptides at concentrations safe and effective for the eye contour.

• ✅ Works Well With: Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, Retinoids (applied to the rest of the face), and most gentle hydrators. Its soothing formula can actually help buffer the eye area when you're using stronger actives elsewhere.
• ⚠️ Use with Caution: When applying strong chemical exfoliants (AHAs/BHAs) or prescription retinoids, avoid direct application near the orbital bone where you've applied the eye serum to prevent potential irritation from overlapping products.
• 🚫 Avoid: Do not apply directly onto eyelids or the lash line. For external use only.

• 💧 Dry/Dehydrated Skin: Excellent. Provides essential hydration and lipids to combat dryness and plump up dehydration lines.
• ✨ Normal/Combination Skin: Ideal. The lightweight texture absorbs beautifully without adding extra oil to the T-zone.
• 🌿 Oily Skin: Very suitable. Its non-greasy, serum-like consistency won't feel heavy or contribute to shine.
• 🌸 Sensitive Skin: Generally well-tolerated. It's formulated to be gentle on the delicate eye area. However, a patch test is always recommended.
• 👵 Mature Skin: A perfect choice for targeting fine lines, crow's feet, and loss of firmness.

Milia-Prone Skin: The lightweight texture is less likely to cause milia than heavy creams, but it's important to use only a tiny amount (half a grain of rice per eye) and tap it in gently.

• Fine Lines & Crow's Feet: Adenosine and peptides work to smooth the skin's surface and support collagen for a visible reduction in lines over time.
• Loss of Elasticity: Peptides help to improve skin firmness and bounce, making the eye area appear more lifted and youthful.
• Dryness & Dehydration: Sodium Hyaluronate and Glycerin provide a surge of moisture to plump the skin and prevent the crepey texture associated with dehydration.
• Neck Lines: The serum's firming and smoothing ingredients are also effective on the horizontal lines that can form on the neck.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of the serum to a discreet area of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner wrist.
2. Wait for 24-48 hours to observe for any signs of irritation like redness, itching, or swelling.
3. If no reaction occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use on your face. Discontinue use immediately if you experience a reaction.

• Texture: A lightweight, silky serum-cream. It spreads easily without feeling heavy or oily.
• Finish: Absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving a hydrated, natural finish that is neither matte nor overly dewy.
• Scent: Fragrance-free, with no discernible scent.
• pH: The formula's pH is expected to be in the skin-friendly range of 5.5 - 6.5, though not officially published by the brand.

• Issue: Tiny white bumps (milia) are appearing around my eyes.
  • Solution: You may be using too much product. Reduce the amount to half a grain of rice for both eyes and ensure you are tapping it only along the orbital bone, not closer to the lash line.
• Issue: The product is pilling or balling up under my makeup/sunscreen.
  • Solution: This usually happens from applying too much product or not allowing layers to absorb fully. Use a smaller amount and wait at least 1-2 minutes for the eye serum to sink in completely before applying your next step.

The lightweight serum texture of this product makes it an excellent choice for the warm and humid climate of Mauritius.

• Humid Summer: It provides essential anti-aging benefits and hydration without feeling heavy, sticky, or greasy. It absorbs quickly, making it comfortable for both day and night use.
• Drier Winter/Indoors: For those who spend time in air-conditioned environments, this serum helps combat the dehydration that can accentuate fine lines around the eyes. You may want to layer a slightly richer moisturiser over it at night during drier periods.

Can I apply this serum directly on my eyelids?

It is generally recommended to apply eye creams and serums on the orbital bone, avoiding the mobile eyelid and lash line to prevent irritation. The product will naturally migrate slightly closer to the eye.

Will this eye serum cause milia?

Its lightweight serum texture makes it less likely to cause milia compared to heavy, rich eye creams. However, those prone to milia should always use a very small amount (half a grain of rice per eye) and tap gently.

Can I use this with my retinol product?

Yes. You can use your retinol on the rest of your face and then apply this gentle serum around the eye area. The soothing ingredients can actually help buffer the delicate eye skin from potential irritation from stronger actives used elsewhere.

Is it suitable for men?

Absolutely. Skin aging concerns are universal. This lightweight, fragrance-free serum is suitable for anyone looking to address fine lines around the eyes and neck.

Best For: Those looking for a gentle, hydrating, and lightweight daily eye serum to address early to moderate fine lines, crow's feet, and neck lines.

Key Benefits:

• Firms and smooths with peptides and MFDS-approved Adenosine.
