Dealing with fine lines or tired-looking eyes can be frustrating, especially when the skin is sensitive and reacts to strong ingredients.

This gentle yet effective eye cream is designed for those who want the age-defying benefits of retinol without the potential for irritation. It combines Bakuchiol, a plant-based retinol alternative, with SKIN1004's signature fermented Madagascan Centella Asiatica to soothe, firm, and hydrate the delicate eye area.

• Who it's for: All skin types, especially sensitive skin, beginners to anti-aging eye care, or those who cannot tolerate traditional retinol.
• What it does: Helps to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines, improves skin firmness, and provides deep, lasting hydration.
• Texture: A rich but non-greasy cream that absorbs well, leaving the skin feeling soft and moisturized.

1. Cleanser: Start with a clean base.
2. THIS PRODUCT: Gently pat a tiny amount around the eye area (see "How to Use" for the exact amount).
3. Sunscreen (AM) / Moisturiser (PM): Finish by sealing in moisture and protecting your skin.

Note: Already own an eye cream? Finish that first to avoid waste. This product is a substitute for your current eye cream, not an addition.

1. Cleanser: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
2. Toner/Essence (Optional): Apply a hydrating toner to prep the skin.
3. Serum (Optional): Apply any targeted face serums.
4. THIS PRODUCT (Eye Cream): Gently pat a tiny amount around your orbital bone.
5. Moisturiser (Optional): Apply face moisturiser if your skin needs it or if your sunscreen isn't hydrating enough.
6. Sunscreen: Always finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+). This is crucial to protect the delicate eye area and prevent further aging.

Wait Times: Allow the eye cream to absorb for 1-2 minutes before applying sunscreen or makeup to prevent pilling.

1. Double Cleanse: Start with an oil cleanser to dissolve sunscreen and makeup, followed by a water-based cleanser.
2. Toner/Essence: Apply your hydrating toner or essence.
3. Serum: Apply your nighttime face serum (e.g., for hydration or barrier repair).
4. THIS PRODUCT (Eye Cream): Gently pat the eye cream around the orbital bone area.
5. Moisturiser: Apply your final moisturiser to your face to lock everything in.

Texture Rule: Always apply your skincare products from the thinnest texture (like a toner) to the thickest (like a cream).

[Amount]

Use an amount equivalent to about half a grain of rice per eye. A little goes a very long way. Using too much can increase the risk of milia (small white bumps).

[Method]

• Squeeze the tiny amount onto your ring finger.
• Gently dot the cream along the orbital bone (the bone under your eye and below your eyebrow).
• Lightly pat—do not rub or pull—until the cream is absorbed.

[Frequency]

Can be used daily, both AM and PM. If you are new to anti-aging actives, start with PM use only for the first week to allow your skin to adjust.

[Makeup Tips (No Pilling)]

To ensure smooth makeup application, apply a thin layer of the eye cream and wait 1-2 minutes for it to fully absorb before applying concealer or foundation. This helps prevent the product from pilling or bunching up.

[Important Watchouts]

• Milia: If you are prone to milia, be extra careful to use only the recommended tiny amount.
• Safety: Avoid applying directly to the mobile eyelid or too close to the lash line to prevent irritation. For external use only. Discontinue if a rash or irritation occurs.

Because this eye cream uses Bakuchiol, a gentle retinol-alternative, it is suitable for daily use.

• Daily Use: Apply in the AM and PM as part of your regular routine.
• If Using Strong Actives: If you use a strong retinol or exfoliating acid (AHA/BHA) on your face at night, you can still use this gentle eye cream. Its soothing properties can help comfort the eye area. However, always listen to your skin and reduce frequency if you notice any sensitivity.

AM/PM Cheat-sheet:

• This Eye Cream: AM and PM daily.
• Vitamin C (Face Serum): AM daily.
• Exfoliating Acids (Face Toner/Serum): PM, 1-3 times per week.
• Retinoids (Face Serum/Cream): PM, 2-4 times per week, on nights you don't use exfoliating acids.

Skincare is a journey that requires patience. Here is a realistic timeline based on the ingredients in this eye cream.

• Immediate: The skin around the eyes will feel more hydrated, soothed, and comfortable. Dryness-related fine lines may appear temporarily plumped.
• 2-4 Weeks: With consistent use, you may notice that the skin texture around the eyes feels smoother and looks more consistently hydrated throughout the day.
• 4-8+ Weeks: The firming and line-smoothing benefits of Bakuchiol and peptides become more apparent. You may observe a visible improvement in the appearance of fine lines and a firmer feel to the skin. (Evidence: Ingredient rationale).

Important: Results depend on consistent daily use and diligent sun protection.

• Why this, not just your face moisturiser? The skin around your eyes is up to 10 times thinner and more delicate than the rest of your face. Eye creams are specifically formulated with actives tested for this sensitive area and often have a texture that is less likely to cause milia or irritation.
• Why this, not prescription Retinoids right away? While prescription retinoids are powerful, they can be highly irritating, especially for the eye area and for sensitive skin. Bakuchiol is a plant-based ingredient shown in studies to provide similar benefits to retinol (improving lines and firmness) but with significantly less irritation, making it a much safer starting point.

• Works Well With: Gentle hydrators like Hyaluronic Acid, soothing ingredients like Panthenol, brightening actives like Niacinamide and Vitamin C, and barrier-supporting ingredients like Ceramides.
• Use With Caution: If you use strong prescription retinoids or high-concentration exfoliating acids (AHA/BHA) on your face, be mindful of potential sensitivity spreading to the eye area. This cream is gentle, but it's best not to layer multiple strong actives in the same routine without allowing your skin to acclimate.
• Avoid On: Do not apply directly to your mobile eyelids or along the lash line to prevent eye irritation. Stick to the orbital bone.

• Sensitive Skin: Excellent fit. Formulated with fermented Centella Asiatica for soothing and Bakuchiol for gentle action.
• Dry/Mature Skin: An ideal choice for providing both hydration and anti-aging benefits to combat dryness and fine lines.
• Oily/Combination Skin: Suitable. The cream texture is nourishing but absorbs well without feeling heavy or greasy.
• Acne-Prone Skin: Generally safe for the eye area. If you are specifically prone to milia, use a very small amount.

This eye cream is formulated to address the following concerns around the delicate eye area:

• Fine lines and crow's feet
• Loss of firmness and elasticity
• Dryness and dehydration
• Dull or tired-looking skin

• Bakuchiol: A plant-derived antioxidant that functions as a natural, gentle alternative to retinol. It helps to stimulate collagen production, improving the appearance of fine lines and skin texture without the common side effects of irritation or photosensitivity.
• Lactobacillus/Centella Asiatica Extract Ferment Filtrate: This is SKIN1004's unique Probio-Cica complex. Fermented Centella Asiatica provides enhanced soothing and barrier-repairing benefits, helping to calm and strengthen the delicate skin around the eyes.

• Ceramide NP & Panthenol: Core components of a healthy skin barrier. Ceramide NP replenishes the skin's natural lipids to lock in moisture, while Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) soothes and hydrates.
• 3-Type Hyaluronic Acid: A blend of low, medium, and high molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid provides multi-layer hydration, plumping the skin from within to reduce the appearance of dehydration lines.

As with any new product, a patch test is always recommended, especially for highly reactive skin.

[Who Should Use With Caution]

• Milia-Prone Skin: If you are prone to developing small white bumps (milia) around the eyes, be sure to use only a very small amount of product (half a rice grain per eye).
• Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: Bakuchiol is generally considered a safer alternative to retinol during pregnancy. However, as a precaution, we recommend consulting your doctor before introducing any new active skincare products during this time.
• Teens: This product is designed for addressing signs of aging. Teens should focus on a simple routine of cleanser, moisturiser, and SPF unless guided by a clinician.

[How to Patch Test]

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

• Texture: A smooth, mid-weight cream. It feels nourishing upon application but is not overly thick or heavy.
• Finish: Absorbs well to a natural, slightly dewy finish. It does not feel greasy or sticky.
• Scent: Unscented.
• pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: This product contains some ingredients that can potentially trigger fungal acne in highly susceptible individuals, such as Squalane, Shea Butter, Olive Oil, and certain esters. Individual responses vary, so a patch test is advised if you have this concern.

• Issue: Product is pilling (rolling up into little balls).
  Solution: You are likely using too much product or not waiting long enough before applying your next step. Use a smaller amount (half a rice grain per eye) and wait 1-2 minutes for it to absorb fully.
• Issue: I'm developing milia (small white bumps).
  Solution: This is often caused by using too much of a rich product around the eyes. Reduce the amount to the absolute minimum needed to cover the orbital bone area.
• Issue: I'm not seeing results after a few weeks.
  Solution: Be patient. Active ingredients like Bakuchiol work on a cellular level and require at least 8-12 weeks of consistent use to show visible improvement in fine lines. Also, ensure you are using a high-SPF sunscreen every single day to prevent new damage from undoing your progress.

The texture of this eye cream is well-suited for the Mauritian climate year-round.

• Humid Summer: Its non-greasy finish is comfortable even in high humidity. You may find you only need the tiniest amount.
• Drier Winter / Air-Conditioning: The nourishing formula provides ample moisture to combat the dryness caused by cooler weather or constant air-conditioning, preventing dehydration lines.

Storage Tip: Keep the tubes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, like a bedroom drawer, to protect the stability of the active ingredients.

At Adilsons, we guarantee 100% authenticity. This product is sourced directly from the brand or their authorized distributors in South Korea.

The claims for this product are based on the established scientific functions of its key ingredients.

• Bakuchiol (Ingredient Rationale): Multiple independent studies have shown that Bakuchiol can function similarly to retinol in stimulating collagen production and improving signs of aging like fine lines and loss of elasticity, but with a significantly better tolerability profile (less redness, stinging, and peeling).
• Fermented Centella Asiatica (Ingredient Rationale): Fermentation can break down active compounds into smaller, more easily absorbed molecules, potentially enhancing their soothing and barrier-repairing properties compared to standard extracts. Centella Asiatica itself is well-documented for its anti-inflammatory and wound-healing benefits.
• Adenosine & Niacinamide (Regulatory Approval): These ingredients are officially approved by the South Korean MFDS as functional ingredients for improving the appearance of wrinkles, based on a body of scientific evidence.

Here is some aggregated sentiment from real users on independent platforms (Anecdotal/Aggregated sentiment).

Will this eye cream give me milia?

Milia can be caused by using products that are too rich or applying too much. This cream has a balanced texture, but to minimize risk, always use a very small amount (about half a grain of rice per eye) and pat it gently into the skin.

Can I apply this on my eyelids?

It is generally recommended to avoid applying eye creams directly on the mobile eyelid or too close to the lash line to prevent irritation. Apply it along the orbital bone, just under the eye and below the eyebrow.

Is Bakuchiol as effective as Retinol?

Studies suggest that Bakuchiol can provide comparable results to retinol in improving fine lines, wrinkles, and elasticity over time. While retinol might work faster for some, Bakuchiol's main advantage is its excellent tolerability, making it a superior choice for sensitive skin or those who experience irritation from retinol.

How is this different from my regular face moisturiser?

The skin around the eyes is significantly thinner and more delicate. This eye cream is formulated specifically for this area, with a texture designed to be absorbed well without being too heavy, and contains active ingredients like Bakuchiol and Adenosine at levels effective for targeting eye-area concerns like crow's feet.

[Best For]

Individuals with sensitive skin, those new to anti-aging eye care, or anyone looking for a gentle yet effective alternative to traditional retinol creams.

[Key Benefits]

• Helps improve the appearance of fine lines and firmness with minimal risk of irritation.
• Deeply hydrates and soothes the delicate skin around the eyes.
• Excellent value with a long-lasting twin pack format.

[Keep in Mind]
