Last step in your skincare routine: targeted eye care
Use this eye cream as the final step in your routine, after toner, serum, and emulsion. The eye area is the thinnest and most delicate skin on your face, so it needs dedicated attention. With retinyl palmitate and niacinamide, it targets both fine lines and uneven tone around the eyes.
Best used in your evening routine
Because this formula contains a retinol derivative (retinyl palmitate), we recommend using it at night. Your skin's natural repair cycle peaks while you sleep, so nighttime application helps you get the most out of its firming benefits. If you do use it in the morning, make sure to follow up with sunscreen.
A rice grain–sized amount, gently patted in
Dispense a small amount (about the size of a rice grain) onto your fingertip and smooth it gently from under the eye to the outer corner and up onto the eyelid. Instead of rubbing, tap it in lightly with your fingertips to help it absorb. If dark circles are a concern, extend application across the entire under-eye area.
Pairing it with the rest of your routine
- If fine lines are your main concern: Layer this eye cream over a deeply hydrating emulsion to lock in moisture and support skin elasticity
- If dullness around the eyes bothers you: Use a vitamin C serum in the morning, then apply this product in the evening with some time in between
- If dryness is an issue: Apply a ceramide cream all over your face first, then follow up with this eye cream around the eye area
Precautions when using retinol-based products
This product contains a retinol derivative, so if you're new to retinol, start by using it every 2–3 days and monitor how your skin responds. Avoid using it on the same day as exfoliating acids like AHA or BHA to minimize the risk of irritation. Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight. If you experience redness or itching, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
