Why Dark Circles Are Multifactorial
Dark circles are often misunderstood and are rarely caused by one factor alone.
Common contributors include thinning skin around the eye area, dehydration, shadowing from loss of structure and general skin fatigue. As the under-eye area becomes more fragile, these factors become more visible.
The Role of Hydration and Barrier Health of Skin Under Eyes
Dehydrated skin reflects light poorly, making the delicate under-eye area look darker and more tired.
Barrier-supporting ingredients such as ceramides help improve skin comfort and resilience, supporting a smoother and brighter-looking eye contour.
Structural Skin Support Makes a Visible Difference
As collagen support declines with age, the under-eye area can appear hollowed or shadowed. Supporting skin structure helps improve how light reflects from the eye area, contributing to a more radiant under eye appearance.
The MAYDI+™ Peptide Eye Cream supports this through our unique, FairWld certified frankincense based BFE-01 which reduces the appearance of wrinkles around the eyes, improves firmness and skin elasticity, improves skin clarity, radiance and skin hydration leaving eyes looking brighter and less tired.
Peptide Eye Cream also contains multi-weight Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides, helping the eye area look refreshed and well-rested. Glycerin, Albizia Julibrissin Bark Extract and Darutoside significantly fades dark circles and our tetrapeptides improve skin luminance and reduce darkness under the eyes.
We worked with an award winning UK skincare development lab team to develop this powerful formula which we tested on 80 women aged 45 years+ over a 2 week period.
The results showed:
- 90% of women felt the skin around their eyes felt soothed, comfortable and nourished*
- 85% of women felt the skin around their eyes looked healthier*
- 80% of women felt the skin around their eyes looked more radiant*
