Can the Peptide Eye Cream be applied to the eyelids, or should it only be used around the under-eye area?
Our Peptide Eye Cream is designed to be applied to the skin around the eyes, both below and around the orbital bone. However, it should not be applied directly to the eyelids. For the best results and to avoid any potential irritation, we recommend gently dabbing the cream around the under-eye area and along the orbital bone, ensuring it doesn't come into contact with the eyelids.
What are peptides, and why are they essential in an eye cream?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. In skincare, peptides are known for their ability to support collagen synthesis, which helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. In our Peptide Eye Cream, the Matrixyl 3000 peptide blend is a key ingredient that effectively addresses puffiness and signs of fatigue around the eyes, promoting a more youthful and revitalised eye area.
