Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!
Learn more about WaterHelianthus Annuus Seed Oil is the oil derived from the seeds of a Sunflower. Sunflower seed oil is non-fragrant. It is an emollient, meaning it helps to soften the skin.
Sunflower seed oil contains many fatty acids. The fatty acids found in sunflower seeds include (from highest amount to least): linoleic acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, oleic acid, and linolenic acid.
These fatty acids help the skin create ceramides. Ceramides play a role in repairing the skin barrier.
Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil helps moisturize the skin. This in turn helps the skin look more rejuvenated and smoother.
Sunflowers are rich in vitamin E.
Historians believe Indigenous cultures of North America domesticated sunflowers before corn. Thus they relied on sunflower oil for a variety of uses. One such use is moisturizing skin and hair.
Sunflower seed oil may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.

Some studies are looking into caffeine's ability to protect against UV rays.
Learn more about CaffeineSodium Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid's salt form. It is commonly derived from the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.

I have such sensitive skin around my eyes, due to surgeries and long-term medication, that Vitamin C burns and causes blepharitis. I was hoping this would be the brightening solution, but it unfortunately has aggravated my skin conditions. It works to brighten and firm, so if your skin isn’t highly sensitive, I would recommend. For me, though, I’ll have to give the remaining product away. Such a Show more
TL;DR: Affordable, non-irritating. Could be a little bit more moisturizing.
I tried this as a sample and liked it, so picked up a full-size version from Stylevana (though it's available on Amazon). I quite like it, and it's kept my under eyes hydrated while traveling abroad on long haul flights and dry climates.
