Treating Dark Circles Now, Will Prevent Bags later on in Life


Why do we get dark circles and under eye bags?
Dark circles and under-eye bags are due to a slowing down of microcirculation causing blood to congregate in capillaries, which weaken and lead to water and lymph leakage; supporting tissues also weaken with age.

Cytobiol™ Lumin Eye at 5% is a synergistic blend of the following ingredients:-

Esculin and Fraxin from the bark of a European Ash tree (Fraxinus excelsior) are clinically proven to reinforce capillaries, reduce blood leakage and eliminate the pigments responsible for skin coloration and erase signs of tiredness.

Organic Silicon is already present in collagen and elastin and helps reinforce the structure and elasticity of the vessels and makes the connective tissues stronger and more flexible. Organic silicon helps reinforce capillary structure, complementing the action of Esculin and Fraxin.

Vitamin B3 also reinforces the structure of the blood vessels and helps to maintain or restore a normal blood flow in capillaries.
Cytobiol™ Lumin Eye has been used at 5% in Bright Eyed and Bushy Tailed Eye Cream, available from:-

Ultimate Youth Eye Cream from Balance Active Formula

Here is another incredibly good value product from Balance Active Formula, this is the 3rd product I've tried from them and I'm not disappointed.  I've tested and researched the ingredients from the active manufacturers website and looked at the supporting evidence and its really good to see skin care products containing high quality actives that are affordable, goes to show how much money can be saved on packaging, marketing and not comprise the quality of the product.

Ingredients
1) EyeProx3X  - clinically proven to dramatically reduce dark circles in just 4 weeks and boost collagen production and hydration
2) Easyliance – proven to reduce crow’s feet within 4 weeks with immediate lifting and tightening effect
Paraben and Silicone free

Eye Creams vs. Day or Night creams
Eye creams tend to be formulated so that they sink into the skin quickly; the skin around the eye is typically thinner and more fragile, so it not ideal to apply a product that is draggy or takes a while to be absorbed.  Look for an eye cream that offers something specific ie dark circles, puffy eyes, and crow’s feet; otherwise you’re probably using a lighter version of your day/night cream.

How it Works
1) Two natural ingredients; Saccharomyces Cerevisiae & Rhodiola rosea work synergistically to break down fatty deposits and controls excessive fluid up which causes to puffy eyes 
2) Hydrolyzed rhizobian gum & acacia gum works synergistically to give a vegetable equivalent of Botox, it works by tensing and relaxing the skin thereby smoothing out fine lines, and improves appearance of skin with repeated use

Skin Affinity
It’s quite a thick consistency, but melts nicely into the under eye area with a little gentle patting, there is a tightening effect but its quite slight.

Rating
