5% Caffeine + 5% Niacinamide
This serum is highly concentrated in caffeine to effectively boost microcirculation.
- Caffeine (5%): Naturally present in coffee beans, tea leaves, cocoa beans, and kola nuts, caffeine is known to facilitate blood circulation and reduce water retention, diminishing the appearance of puffiness and dark circles under the eyes.
- Niacinamide (5%): There are two forms of vitamin B3: niacin and niacinamide. Niacinamide improves the regulation of blood circulation in the capillary veins (small blood vessels around the eyes).
- Albizia Julibrissin extract (2%): Also known as the silk tree, this native Asian plant boasts delicate fan-shaped pink flowers. Its extract contains properties known for restoring radiance to the skin. Albizia Julibrissin extract also brings vitality back to fatigued-looking skin caused by glycation and glycoxidation. Glycation is a natural chemical reaction of sugar molecules attaching themselves to the proteins of the dermis. These proteins are then more sensitive to oxidation (glycoxidation) which results in more free radicals, and more fine lines around the eyes. While the phenomenon of glycation is inevitable in any living organism, it can be slowed down by a balanced, less sugary diet and good skincare.
