The ideal blend of pure and active ingredients that have been synergistically formulated to create radiant, refined eye skin by supporting it to:

• Protect from the sun’s harsh UV rays.

Phytoestrogens (plant estrogens) are natural plant based compounds that have a similar chemical structure to that of the body and have exhibited the potential to simulate estrogen in the body. Primarily, estrogen helps to improve the production of collagen and elastin. As the eye skin is very thin and perhaps fragile, this would be especially beneficial in maintaining or increasing its thickness,
firmness and elasticity.

Fenugreek seeds are a rich source of Antioxidants; Vitamins C, B1, B2, B3 and B6; β-carotene; Thiamine; Niacin; Nicotinic Acid; Riboflavin and Folic Acid. Studies have shown that these tiny golden seed extracts are significant because they are mainly comprised of galactomannans; compounds which can help increase the skin’s elasticity and improve its natural and gentle hydrating, exfoliation
and environmental protection abilities.

Fenugreek seed extracts are noncarcinogenic; have skin whitening potential; and have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties. These properties help to reduce skin irritation thus alleviating the temptation to rub the skin around the eyes. They have also displayed the ability to reduce swelling which can potentially help to reduce puffiness under the eyes.

Glutamine and Beta-glucan have been derived from Hops for a significant inclusion in this formula. Glutamine is a compound that has been reported to contribute to increased collagen production in the skin.  Simultaneously, Beta-glucan has the potential to improve the absorption of this compound.  Optimally, skin will appear firmer, smoother and more radiant.

Beta-Glucan is a non-greasy, powerful humectant that has demonstrated, in clinical studies, the ability to absorb deep into the skin layers. Thus, the addition of Beta-Glucan further enhances the potent ability of this eye moisturiser to provide deep hydration, lock in moisture and effectively plump the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

1 review for Fenugreek & Hops Eye Moisturiser – 15ml

  1. Kathy

    What I love most about this superb eye moisturiser is that it absorbs instantly, lightly firms the delicate eye skin, and amazingly seems to make lines almost disappear. It has been helpful in keeping the dark circles under my eyes at bay and I so love that it leaves by skin looking bright and dewy. Just a small dab am and pm renders this an economical product to use.
    Fenugreek & Hops Eye Moisturiser, in combination with Saffron Eye Firming Serum, has been my “saving grace” for maintaining a more youthful and healthy eye skin and, for me, has proven to be the perfect natural alternative to Botox.
    Thank you, Charmaine for your professional advice and for introducing me to this lovely range of natural skincare products.
