Key ingredients:

*Double encapsulated retinaldehyde
Retinaldehyde is proven to work up to 11 times faster than retinol,[1] retinaldehyde targets the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, discoloration and uneven skin texture. A dual encapsulation delivery system produces an ultra-slow release, gradient effect of the retinal into the skin to ensure both strength and softness on the skin.
*Ceramides
Ceramides occur naturally in the skin barrier and easily penetrate the skin to richly nourish, soften and support the skin around the eyes.
*Hyaluronic acid filling spheres
A form of hyaluronic acid that is able to plump and smooth fine lines and wrinkles, expanding into the depth of the wrinkle to plump the skin.
*Chamomile extract
Derived from the daisy family, chamomile extract (also known as bisabolol) is a natural antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties that helps support, soften and visibly soothe delicate skin.

How it works:

Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye is fully optimized to deliver retinal power to the delicate skin around the eyes. The eye cream targets signs of skin aging specific to this part of the face; deep crow's feet, wrinkles, loss of firmness, dark circles, bags under the eyes, dehydration lines and sensitivity.

1. This innovative vitamin A eye cream has a double-encapsulated retinal delivery system; two forms of retinal encapsulation come together to produce an ultra-delayed, gradient release of retinal into the skin. This minimizes the risk of irritation and ensures that Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye is extra gentle on the sensitive eye zone.
2. Ceramides work to nourish, visibly firm and support the thinner skin around the eyes overnight, offsetting dryness and sensitivity that can sometimes occur when using vitamin A. Ceramides occur naturally in our skin barrier and therefore easily replenish the skin.
3. Next generation hyaluronic acid filling spheres provide quickly visible smoothing results. Before being applied to the skin, the beads are dried out. Once in the skin, they fill with water and expand to the depth of lines and wrinkles. This increase in volume can help to quickly visibly reduce signs of aging around the eyes overnight.
4. Chamomile extract is a soothing natural antioxidant that helps to support, soften and soothe the delicate skin around the eyes overnight.
