Humectant, Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.

Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.

Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.

A ridiculous amount of unnecessary packaging for a product that only contains 15ml, as any other eye-cream. It's unbelievable how a company can get away with this extremely wasteful product.

Plus, It's not even a mediocre product. They claim to have peptides in the formula and you will only will find one at the bottom of the list. The rest is just normal hydrating ingredients.

Totally not worth the money. I bought the whole set and none of the products satisfied my needs. I was expecting so much more because I fell into the trap of marketing. I the eye cream triggered an extreme allergic reaction around the eye are so I am super disappointed with this product.
