What the gurus are saying

This peptide eye gel earns praise for being a must-try product, though the takes here are limited so there is not much to go on just yet. One expert found it worth reaching for, while another had reservations about this particular entry from Biossance's squalane line.

"This is pretty gentle so I feel like you could use this everyday twice a day as well. I've never had an issue with peeling. This does sit nicely underneath sunscreen and makeup as well. I always put a moisturizer on top of this while this is still damp around the eye area because when you do that that's when you will achieve that plumper hydrated look for the entire day. So if you're looking for something like this, honestly this is a must try."

What the evidence says.

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

Vitamin C

Topical vitamin C is an antioxidant with reasonable evidence for dullness and uneven tone. It breaks down in light and air, so how a product is formulated and packaged matters as much as the percentage on the front.

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.
