It's easy to feel like the skin around your eyes is fragile and needs special care, especially when you start seeing fine lines, dark circles, or puffiness. This double-functioning, lightweight eye cream is designed to hydrate, firm, and brighten the delicate eye area without feeling heavy or sticky. Formulated with snail mucin, five types of peptides, and niacinamide, it aims to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, dark circles, and puffiness while providing deep, lasting moisture.

• Targets: Fine lines, wrinkles, dull or dehydrated skin, dark circles, and puffiness.
• Texture: A light, bouncy gel-cream that absorbs quickly without a greasy residue.
• Who it's for: Suitable for all skin types and ages, from teens concerned with early prevention to those seeking to firm and hydrate mature skin.
• The Result: The delicate skin around your eyes feels plump, hydrated, and looks more radiant with consistent use.

For a beginner, keeping it simple is key. Finish your current similar product before adding this to your routine to avoid waste.

1. Cleanser — quick wash; clean base.
2. This Product — see amount in "How to Use" below.
3. Moisturiser (AM/PM) — gently seal in moisture with a face cream.

Minimalist (3 steps):

1. Cleanser (water rinse or gentle wash)
2. This Product (half a rice grain per eye, pat gently on orbital bone)
3. Sunscreen SPF 30+ (protects delicate eye skin from UVA damage that causes wrinkles and dark circles)

Wait times: 1-2 minutes after applying the eye cream before applying your sunscreen or makeup to prevent pilling.

Minimalist (3 steps):

1. Cleanser (double-cleanse if wearing makeup/sunscreen)
2. This Product (half a rice grain per eye, pat gently on orbital bone)
3. Moisturiser (lock in hydration for overnight repair)

Texture rule: Always apply thinnest to thickest consistency in your routine.

Daily Use — AM/PM:

• Amount: A half a rice grain per eye is all you need. The pump dispenser can release a lot, so be careful not to press too hard.
• Apply to: The orbital bone around the eyes; avoid the mobile eyelids and close to the lash line.
• Method: Dispense a small amount onto your ring finger and gently tap the cream into the skin until fully absorbed.
• Wait times: Wait 1-2 minutes before applying other products to prevent pilling.
• Frequency: Use morning and night for best results.

If-This / Then-That:

• Under makeup? This cream has a lightweight texture that absorbs well and should not interfere with makeup application.
• Very dry eye area? Apply two layers for a more moisturizing effect.
• Sensitive/reactive? The formula is gentle, fragrance-free, and alcohol-free. However, always do a patch test first.
• Pilling? If you notice pilling, you may be using too much product or not waiting long enough for it to absorb before the next step.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid direct eye contact. Stop use if irritation occurs. Teens: This product is suitable for teens looking for preventative anti-aging skincare.

Daily: This product can be used every day, both morning and night. The peptides and snail mucin work best with consistent use.

AM/PM cheat-sheet:

• Eye creams AM+PM (½ rice grain per eye)

Mauritius note: Keep layers thin to prevent a heavy feel in our humid climate. You may find this cream is moisturizing enough on its own in the morning, without needing an extra face moisturizer on top. It absorbs well and is not heavy. If you are using this with a facial retinol or exfoliant, apply those products to the rest of your face but avoid the delicate eye area.

• Immediate: A lightweight, bouncy texture that absorbs quickly and feels hydrating. The skin around your eyes should feel plump and moisturised.
• 2–4 weeks: Some users report seeing quick results in hydration and reduced dark circles, with the under-eye area looking brighter and more refreshed.
• 4–8+ weeks: With consistent use, the peptides and snail mucin help restore elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Long-term, consistent use is key for anti-aging benefits.

This product is a great "team player" in a routine and can be used with most other ingredients, including acids and other anti-aging actives.

• Works with: Cleansers, hydrating toners/serums, moisturizers, and sunscreen.
• Use carefully with: Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) serums containing copper peptides. The manufacturer does not list any conflicts, but some users recommend using a Vitamin C serum in the morning and this eye cream in the evening to be cautious.
• Avoid on: Mobile eyelids or close to the lash line to avoid irritation.

This product is formulated for all skin types, including dry, oily, combination, and sensitive skin. Its light, fast-absorbing texture makes it suitable for both oily and dry skin. It is gentle and fragrance-free, making it a good choice for sensitive and rosacea-prone skin.

• Anti-Aging: Firms the skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Patch Test: Apply a pea-sized amount to your jawline or behind the ear. Check for any burning, stinging, or redness after 24-48 hours. If there are no issues, proceed to use on the eye area.

If irritation occurs: Stop use immediately. Cleanse the area with a gentle, non-stripping cleanser. Apply a soothing, fragrance-free cream to the irritated spot. If irritation persists for more than 72 hours, consult a medical professional.

• Texture: A light, bouncy gel-cream that is not heavy or thick.
• Finish: Absorbs quickly, leaving the skin plump and moisturized without any sticky or greasy residue.
• Scent: Fragrance-free with no discernible scent.
• pH: 6.0 ~ 1.0 (on a scale of 0 to 14, where 7 is neutral).

• Pilling: This can occur if you use too much product or don't wait long enough before applying the next product. Use a smaller amount and allow it to fully absorb.
• Milia: If you are prone to milia, reduce the amount of product you are using. Apply a half a rice grain size for both eyes and only on the orbital bone, avoiding the immediate under-eye area.
• No results at 8 weeks: Ensure you are using the product twice daily and consistently applying a half a rice grain per eye. Remember that anti-aging and brightening benefits can take up to 3 months to show. Consistent use and sun protection are key.
• Tingling sensation: This product is formulated to be gentle, so any tingling may be a sign of a compromised skin barrier. Reduce use to once every other day and follow with a moisturizing face cream to repair your skin barrier.

This lightweight, fast-absorbing gel-cream is well-suited for Mauritius' tropical climate. Its texture will not feel heavy or greasy, even in high heat and humidity.

• Snail mucin: Multiple studies support snail mucin's wound-healing, hydrating, and anti-aging properties. It contains components like allantoin, glycolic acid, and peptides that promote skin regeneration, reduce fine lines, and improve elasticity.
• Peptides: Palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 (Matrixyl) is a "messenger peptide" that signals fibroblasts to produce more collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Acetyl hexapeptide-8 (Argireline) can soften the appearance of expression lines.
• Niacinamide: A potent brightening ingredient that inhibits the transfer of melanin to skin cells, effectively reducing the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation. It also improves skin barrier function and reduces redness.
• Adenosine: This ingredient energizes the skin to promote collagen synthesis and reduce the appearance of fine lines, making it an approved functional ingredient for wrinkle improvement by the Korean MFDS.

This 20ml tube, when used twice daily (a half a rice grain per eye), will last approximately 3-4 months. For consistent results, plan to reorder every 3 months.

No in-catalog pairings available today—this product still works well solo with your current cleanser and daily sunscreen.

This eye cream is an excellent choice if your primary concerns are anti-aging, hydration, and brightening.

• If you need intensive wrinkle repair: A stronger retinol-based eye cream may be more effective. For example, consider the SOME BY MI RETINOL INTENSE ADVANCED TRIPLE ACTION EYE CREAM 30ML which uses a retinoid for more potent anti-aging effects.
• If you have extremely sensitive skin: Consider a simple, barrier-focused formula. The Anua 3 CERAMIDE PANTHENOL MOISTURE BARRIER CREAM 100ML is formulated for sensitive skin.
• If puffiness is your main concern: Look for a product with a cooling applicator or targeted ingredients. The heimish BULGARIAN ROSE HYDROGEL EYE PATCH provides an immediate cooling and depuffing effect.

Mindful-use: If you already have a comparable product at home, finish it first to avoid waste and get a fair read on results.

This product comes in a hygienic pump dispenser tube that protects the ingredients from air exposure and contamination. The small 20ml size is convenient for travel and fits easily in a purse or cosmetic bag. Store the tube in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain the potency of the ingredients.
