Under Eye Care Serum

PRODUCT INFO

The skin in our under-eye area is more sensitive and thinner than other areas. For this reason, it is more exposed to the effects of aging, fatigue and environmental factors.

Signs of aging appear more quickly in this area. Wrinkles, fine lines and sagging are especially noticeable in the under-eye area.

Reasons such as insomnia, stress, poor nutrition and genetic factors can cause under-eye dark circles and puffiness. These conditions cause the under-eyes to look toneless and tired.

“Agreka Under Eye Care Serum” was developed with the unique benefits of Rice Bran, Grape Seed, Calendula oils and Geranium essential oil, suitable for all skin types.

Rice Bran Oil helps even skin tone and reduce color irregularities, especially lightening skin blemishes such as dark spots or hyperpigmentation. It helps improve circulation, thereby reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffiness around the eyes and evening out skin tone [1] [2] [3] [4].

Grape Seed Oil contains proanthocyanidins (GSP), powerful antioxidants and free radical scavengers; Thanks to these, grape seed oil helps equalize skin tone [5] [6]. Scientific studies have proven that it is recommended to regularly apply cosmetic products containing grape seed oil alone or mixed with other vegetable oils for dark circles under the eyes [7] [8].

Calendula Oil helps accelerate wound healing and reduce bruising [9]. It has antioxidant properties; It helps slow down the signs of aging [10] [11].

Geranium Essential Oil helps eliminate color tone inequalities by aiding circulation [12].

When you use “Agreka Under Eye Care Serum”, which you can easily apply under your eyes with its roll-on head, regularly it helps:

• Eliminate damage such as bruises and puffiness under your eyes caused by aging, fatigue and environmental factors.
