Our poor eyes need help, and lots of it. Many natural eye creams boast of certain token ingredients that can help your eyes, but these products may not have enough of the ingredient to be potent enough to work—often skin care companies will fill a product with water and then add a small amount of the advertised ingredient, so you don't actually get the benefits. (That's called greenwashing and it's one reason we suggest to always check the ingredients on your products.)
If you’re really serious about reducing the appearance of aging, you’ve got to pull out the big guns. You need ingredients that can really help in all the areas where eyes need help, not just one or two, and you need them to be in high enough concentration in your products to make a real difference.
A moisturizing eye cream, for example, may do little to protect vulnerable skin around the eyes from environmental stressors. A plumping eye cream may do little to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles. An anti-wrinkle eye cream may do nothing for firming and tightening.
But we didn't want to make an eye cream that would require you to use more products on top of it in order to get the results you want, so we filled our formula with key ingredients that work synergistically to improve every facet of aging around the eyes.
TIGHTENING AND FIRMING
If your concern is tightening and firming, we’ve covered that. Here’s a glimpse of some of the ingredients we used:
- Gotu kola. Gotu kola is an amazing ingredient for preserving and restoring a youthful look to the skin.
- Eyebright. This antioxidant-rich ally helps reduce the appearance of puffiness around the eyes.
- St. John’s Wort. This ingredient is soothing and hydrating.
- Goji berry. Contains 11 essential minerals, including calcium, zinc, and selenium. It also contains high levels of vitamin C.
- Rosemary. Rich in antioxidants, which helps protect skin.
- Horsetail. Helps tone skin for a tighter appearance.
- CoQ10. Stimulates and rejuvenates.
