Eye creams are where people waste the most money, so I am careful about which ones I recommend. This one earns it on the formula rather than the packaging. Bakuchiol instead of retinol matters around the eye, because retinol is what causes most of the irritation people give up on. The cold applicator does help with morning puffiness, though that is comfort rather than correction.

Key actives
| Active | What it does | Why we use it |
|---|---|---|
| Vegan EGF at 1%sh-Oligopeptide-1 | A signalling protein, made by fermentation, used to support the look of renewed skin at the surface. | Around the eye the skin is thinnest and slowest to look refreshed. A signalling ingredient is doing more useful work here than a heavier moisturiser would. |
| BakuchiolBakuchiol | A plant-derived ingredient that gives smoothing and firming benefits similar to retinol, without the same irritation. | This is the reason we recommend it around the eye. Most people who abandon an eye cream abandon a retinol one. |
| Ceramide and peptide complexCeramide NP, Ceramide AP, Ceramide EOP, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 | Barrier lipids that match the skin's own, paired with a peptide that supports the look of firmness. | Eyelid skin loses water faster than anywhere else. Rebuilding the barrier is half the result. |

05 · Questions
Common questions
EGF stands for epidermal growth factor, a signalling protein the skin makes naturally. The version here is made by fermentation rather than taken from any animal or human source, which is what vegan EGF means. It signals renewal at the surface. It is a cosmetic ingredient and it stays in the skin's upper layers.
It is gentler, and around the eye that is the point. It gives smoothing and firming benefits without the flaking and stinging that make people stop. If you already tolerate a retinol eye product well, you have no reason to switch. If you have tried one and given up, this is the reason to try again.
It cools the skin, which helps morning puffiness settle. That is a comfort effect and it is temporary. The formula does the lasting work, and you can apply it with a ring finger instead if you prefer.
Yes, tap it along the orbital bone and onto the lid, staying off the lash line. Do not rub. If you wear contact lenses, put them in after the cream has absorbed.
