**Our Sodium hyaluronate is a combination of Macromolecular hyaluronic acid and Small molecule hyaluronic acid.
Small-weight hyaluronan molecules penetrate deeper into the skin’s structure,providing maximum below-the-surface hydration and in turn rehydrating skin cells over time.
Macromolecular hyaluronic molecules deliver immediate intensive hydration to the surface layers of the skin for an instant smoothing and firming effect.
***Retinol has the quality of converting into Vitamin A acid when applied to the skin. In theory, the best effect is achieved by using a pure Vitamin A acid, but it does have a number of side effects, such as severe skin irritation. Because of that, there are restrictions in using A-acid, and it must not be used in skincare products.
Several skin care products contains Retinol (which we use) or Retinol esters, which slowly convert to Vitamin A acid when it pentrates the skin.
****Oligopeptide-1 and 2 can promote cell growth and improve cell activity, repair damaged skin. Repair collagen and elastic fibers. It has super good effect to repair damaged skin, like allergic skin, sun-after skin, couperose skin.

We recommend using a +15 SPF (Sun Protection Factor) cream, let your Retinol work for 2-3 minutes before applying SPF cream.
Retinol can cause skin irritation.
A tip to minimize redness is to apply Hyaluronic Acid Serum before and after applying retinol. These extra layers can mitigate the side effects.

En rigtig god øjencreme som ikke fedter så mascaraen løber ud. Super
its really work . i use evenings and at morning i fee the changes. Also good amount + the good shape helps the product stay longer
I have used this eyecream for almost 2 years and it has done wonders for my dry skin and fine lines. I'm 50 years old but my skin feels 10 years younger and it's mild enough to use on my sensitive skin, most other eyecreams cause allergic reaction. Love it and will probably use it forever.
Den virker efter hensigten og har ikke haft brug for at bygge den op - synes derfor den er god og mild samtidig med den ønskede effekt
Den er mega god den irretere ikke mine øjne, og mine mørke rander er blivet meget bedre. Da jeg holdte en pause med at bruge den kom mine mørke rander lidt tilbage, så skyndte mig at købe en ny
