Peptide Plus Eye Treatment

This formula contains retinyl palmitate (a vitamin A derivative). Retinoids are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. While its peptides and antioxidants are beneficial, this product should be avoided if you are pregnant or nursing.

✅ Peptides (dipeptide-2, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl oligopeptide) are pregnancy safe and great for firming and reducing puffiness.

✅ Barrier repair & soothing agents (ceramide NG, cholesterol, panthenol, hesperidin methyl chalcone, chrysin, antioxidants) are safe for use.

⚠️ Essential oils & botanicals (lavender, grape seed oil, olive oil, etc.) are not contraindicated but may increase sensitivity during pregnancy.

❌ Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A derivative) is included. All retinoids, even weaker cosmetic forms, are not recommended during pregnancy due to their potential teratogenic risk.

❌ Because this is an eye-area treatment, absorption may be higher in delicate skin, making avoidance the safest approach.

This peptide-packed eye treatment is designed to firm, hydrate, and smooth the delicate under-eye area. It is low risk for pore clogging overall, but because it includes shea butter, fatty alcohols, and rich emollients, those prone to milia or under-eye congestion should patch test and use sparingly.

✅ Eye-safe peptides & actives (Dipeptide-2, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Superoxide Dismutase, Rice Bran Protein) are non-comedogenic and formulated for delicate under-eye skin.

✅ Barrier-supporting lipids (squalane, ceramide NG, cholesterol, shea butter) help strengthen the skin barrier and are usually well tolerated in the thin eye area.

✅ Humectants (glycerin, xylitol derivatives, hyaluronic acid) hydrate without clogging pores.

⚠️ Shea butter, fatty alcohols, and rich emollients (cetyl, cetearyl, stearyl) can sometimes cause milia (tiny white bumps) under the eyes in those prone to clogged pores in this area.

⚠️ Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A derivative): Not strongly comedogenic, but can increase cell turnover, which may cause temporary bumps or purging.

⚠️ Essential oils & fragrance components (lavender, limonene, linalool) don’t clog pores directly but can irritate sensitive under-eye skin, indirectly triggering breakouts or dermatitis.

❌ No lanolin, coconut oil, or highly comedogenic occlusives.

This eye treatment uses peptides and antioxidants to target puffiness, fine lines, and dark circles. While powerful, it contains vitamin A derivatives and actives that may be irritating for very sensitive eyes. Patch test before use and start slow.

✅ Formulated with a multi-peptide complex (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl oligopeptide, dipeptide-2) to help reduce puffiness and support firmness with generally low irritation risk.

✅ Includes squalane, shea butter, cholesterol, and ceramides that strengthen the delicate eye barrier.

✅ Antioxidants like vitamin C (tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate), vitamin E, and superoxide dismutase support repair.

⚠️ Contains retinyl palmitate (vitamin A derivative) — can be irritating around the eyes, especially when combined with peptides and acids.

⚠️ Botanical actives (hesperidin methyl chalcone, algae extracts, chlorella) can be potent and occasionally reactive.

⚠️ Preservatives like benzethonium chloride, chlorhexidine digluconate are safe at cosmetic levels but may irritate ultra-sensitive eyes.

❌ Contains fragrance-related allergens (limonene, linalool from botanical oils).
