Skinceuticals Eye Cream
Product Overview
Skinceuticals Eye Cream was designed to reduce puffiness and combat dark circles under the eye. To fulfill this, the formulators included two components that are not generally seen in product of this type. Centella Asiatica (also known as Gotu Kola) is an herb that is found in India and nearby Asian countries. As an oral supplement, taking this herb is believed to promote several areas of health.
The Skinceuticals research team decided to include Centella Asiatica in the Eye Cream formula because the extract of this herb shows an affinity for the skin. It strengthen the capillaries (miniature blood vessels) that feed the eye area that helps to improve blood flow to the eye area, thus making pooling and clogging less likely.
Skinceuticals is a company with an established reputation in the cosmetic field. Founded in 1997, Skinceuticals has built a good reputation in the last 10 years because of its impressive collection of skincare formulas, many of which are created following a thorough process that includes plenty of scientific research. Like many such companies, Skinceuticals offers several products to combat aging near the eye, the most important of which is its unique Eye Cream formula.
Skinceuticals Eye Cream consists of Ections, which are tiny molecules produced by bacteria to protect themselves from the defense’s conjured by the body’s immune system. While the though of using an ingredient derived from bacteria may not seem appealing to many, the research on Ections – and their ability to promote wound healing – is impressive. Since puffiness and crow’s feet could be considered wounds of a specific type, it is conceivable that Ections could thus have a positive effect on the eye area.
