"They do an eye cream too, packed full of those peptides but also containing retinoid, and it now contains retinal. They upgraded the formula, which I really appreciate, and that's why this is one of my favorite eye creams."

"The Numbuzin No.9 Plus eye cream is also a really great option. They're kind of very similar. You could use either or."

This Viral KOREAN SKINCARE Changed Everything - NUMBUZIN NAD 9+ REVIEW

"The formulation itself is perfection. You've got your retinoid in here for anti-aging, but you also have that blend of peptides that you would expect. You've got in here your NAD, which is going to boost collagen. [...] You can use this morning and night because it's super gentle. I have never had concealer [...] go on as well as after using this. [...] It just streamlines your under eye and makes it feel so good. The one drawback is the packaging."

"The eye cream is the one that I referenced earlier saying that packaging is not user friendly. It's a nightmare but the formula is really good. So if you can fight through the packaging which is super overengineered, get past that. The formula is phenomenal."

#1 EYE CREAM 2025 - This $9 Eye Cream Erases Wrinkles

"After first application, I was hooked on this product. It delivered instantly. But when you look at that blend of ingredients, you know you're going to get some long-term anti-aging benefit, too. So it definitely ticks that double whammy of short-term gains, long-term benefit. I paid £8 for this product. That is the most affordable eye cream I've tried in a hot minute. And to get so many great results at that price point, I think is practically unheard of."

"This under eye cream by Numbuzin is an NAD+ retinol with niacinamide and peptides, a multitasking treatment for fine lines and wrinkles that also brightens the under eyes. What I really love is that it has ceramides that give it a shimmer, so when I rub it in it instantly makes the light bounce off my under eyes and the dark circles seem to disappear, while the niacinamide gradually improves the under eye color. It's right around $13."

"After testing it and [...] using it continuously, I think this line works pretty great. I felt like an eye cream has to actually work like an eye cream, if it's too light, like Beauty of Joseon, why even use it, it dries too quickly. This one works like a proper eye cream and it contains 50 different peptides, which definitely helps slow aging. I'd put this in S tier. However, if you have oily combo skin and live in tropical weather, even young skin can find this one a bit heavy."

"You just apply a moderate amount and then they say pat for better absorption. I would recommend using this in your evening routine. It does have kind of a pearlescent finish which makes it nice, but because of the retinoids in here, I think you're better off using this at night and in your daytime focusing on sunscreen and vitamin C. Even though it has a nice finish that kind of gives it a little bit of a brightening look, that's kind of what I would recommend doing."

"It's got a nice creamy consistency, texture feels nice. So they've got that going for it. [...] It's got 50 different peptides in small amounts. [...] Then we've got retinol, niacinamide, resveratrol, copper peptides, cocoa seed extract, no scent to it, very nice, very affordable, and yeah, soaks in really nice and feels nice on my hands. So [...] if your hands are starting to get creepy or hyperpigmented, retinol on the backs of your hands at night can help. So that's what I've been doing."

"9 NAD+ Retinol Volume Toxy Eye Cream. I like a dedicated retinol or retinol-hide eye cream for this area rather than relying on the [Paula's Choice] because my under eye area is prone to dryness and it's much more sensitive than the rest of my skin. And so I want that collagen stimulating benefit, but I don't want to irritate my eye area. And this product is the gentle solution for that. In addition to the retinol, we also have some great niacinamide content for brightness."

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.

Ceramides

Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.
