Sale price$178.00

A peptide eye cream built around acetyl octapeptide-3 (SNAP-8), combined with renewal tripeptides and hyaluronic acid, for expression lines and dehydration.

When to use Morning and evening, after serums, eye area
How it works

The expression softener

Acetyl octapeptide-3, SNAP-8, the extended sibling of Argireline, mimics a fragment of the machinery muscles use to receive contraction commands. Worn daily around the eyes, the research proposes slightly gentler micro-contractions, so crow’s feet and squint lines are folded less deeply through the day. Softening, not stilling, the honest ceiling of any topical peptide.

The renewal pair

Tripeptide-1 and tripeptide-10 citrulline, the second known for helping organise collagen fibres as they form, with lipid-carried hydroxyproline supplying raw material, address the slower, structural side of eye-area ageing.

The Antarctic contribution

Pseudoalteromonas ferment, from bacteria isolated in Antarctic glacial waters, produces a glycoprotein studied for hydration and skin-feel; the house affection for survival organisms reaches its coldest chapter.

The comfort floor

Hyaluronic acid second in the formula, glycosaminoglycans, the NMF trio, panthenol, licorice and centella’s three actives, the thin, reactive under-eye skin gets the gentlest full-service treatment in the range.

Who it suits

Expression lines at the eyes, early crepiness, and under-eyes that read tired from dehydration, for any age that has started squinting at screens. Gentle enough for sensitive eye areas and contact-lens wearers.

Worth knowing

Contains hydrolysed wheat and soy proteins, avoid with wheat-protein or soy allergy, and a trace of retinyl palmitate late in the formula (not a retinoid effect; mention to your clinician if pregnant). Fragrance-free. Deep-set structural changes around the eyes are a clinic conversation; this is the daily-care half.

How to use

Morning and evening: pat a rice-grain amount around the orbital bone with the ring finger, outer corner inward underneath, brow bone above. Let it settle before makeup or SPF.

Consistency beats quantity: twice daily, twelve weeks, then judge.

Layering

Use alongside

The technical seat in the eye-cream chair, opposite Opti Crystal’s copper-and-crystal luxury, choose one and stay with it. It plays well with every serum in the range (applied after, around the orbital bone), and on retinoid nights it doubles as the eye area’s buffer zone.
