"I really love it. It's a really great Eye Cream that helps with peptides to really support collagen and then of course some of the retinol products I mentioned earlier in the context of helping with pigment. Eye Cream especially for those who have more aging mature skin can improve just overall the texture of the under-eye skin and along with hydration and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles."

"The splurge option here is the Alastin Restorative Eye Treatment. It is $118 for 14.8 mls, which is about $7.60 per ml. It is the award-winning anti-aging eye cream that's designed to reduce the appearance of puffiness and dark circles. It also helps with the appearance of those annoying fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. It has this trihex technology to support the production of new healthy elastin and collagen making this under eye cream really unique. The key ingredients are trihex technology, the tetropeptide 30, niacinamide and green tea extract. Why should you splurge? Maybe because this peptide blend in this eye cream specifically targets that fragile under eye skin with proven results. If you're somebody who I would like to call myself low-key addicted to eye cream, I would definitely splurge on an eye cream."

"I also really like the Eye Cream from Alastin. It helps with puffiness and dark circles and fine lines and wrinkles. If you have those early changes, I do think some of those more proprietary eye creams can be great, and the one from Alastin is really nice because it's lightweight and has those clinically proven results."

"The eye cream that I'm going in with today is one I have absolutely been loving. It is the Elastin Restorative Eye Treatment. I really have to give a shout out to the YouTube Community because when I was talking about how I wanted to start trying new eye creams and find ones that were really effective for me, this Elastin eye cream came up as a recommendation so many times, and it really has not disappointed."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Peptides

Peptides are short protein fragments meant to signal repair. The evidence for them is thinner than for retinoids or vitamin C, and it varies a lot by the specific peptide, so the category is more promising than proven.
