Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Butyrospermum Parkii Butter is a plant lipid from the fruit of the Shea Tree. It is an effective skin hydrator and emollient.
Emollients help soothe and soften your skin. It does this by creating a protective film on your skin. This barrier helps trap moisture and keeps your skin hydrated. Emollients may be effective at treating dry or itchy skin.
Shea butter is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants help fight free-radicals, or molecules that may harm the body. It is also full of fatty acids including stearic acid and linoleic acid. These acids help replenish the skin and keep skin moisturized.
While Shea Butter has an SPF rating of about 3-4, it is not a sunscreen replacement.
Shea butter may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.

I’ve been using this for about 2 weeks, It’s okay, it makes my under eyes feel more hydrated but I can’t really tell if it’s doing anything for dark circles
Instant hydration, but over time, I think my eyes are drier than when I first started using it. Flaky skin around my eyes and on the bridge of my nose. Hydration isn’t lasting me all day, either. I’m flaky by the afternoon when I apply in the morning. Bridge of my nose and eyebrows have broken out.
