What they liked

  • Peptides to help support collagen around eyes
  • Rich lipid and ceramide blend without heaviness

What they flagged

    Nothing. None of the experts who reviewed it raised a problem.

    What the gurus are saying

    Petrolatum in the formula does real work sealing in moisture around the delicate eye area, and collagen peptides are there to help stimulate collagen production where fine lines show up first. The cream also brings rose hip oil, sea buckthorn oil, ceramides, and an algae extract (which acts as an antioxidant and protective layer) plus three ingredients specifically chosen to tackle under-eye darkness in a way that stands apart from typical approaches. Not many gurus have weighed in on this one yet, so it is early days.

    "It is good. Everything Stratia do is good. Another brand that is very US-centric, that's all. It's really difficult to get here in the UK, which is a shame. It might change, but it's hard to get hold of. That is my only criticism when it comes to Stratia. I do love the brand."
    Yay
    "This is the Stratia Liquid Gold Eye Cream. I was so excited when the brand released it because I already love their original Liquid Gold, but I did not like this at all at first. It says to apply a thin layer to the eye area, a little goes a long way, but I found it so hard to control my application, and every time I used it my under eye area looked yellow in a not flattering way. Then one day I tried it on an especially frustrating dry patch and that is where this product shined, it feels even more rich and nourishing than Liquid Gold. Now that I've figured out to do one single pump around my eye area and spread the rest on my dry patches, I actually like it as an eye cream too. I love it so much that I'm running low and already placed another order."

    Products I'm QUITTING (& their replacements!)
    "I love Liquid Gold, love it dearly, but I don't like this, the Liquid Gold Eye Cream, as an eye cream. It's so hard to pump out the tiniest amount, and if you over pump it you end up with very yellow under eyes. But I saw people online saying they weren't loving it as an eye cream either, and instead were using it as a spot treatment for dry patches, so I tried that, and oh my gosh, this is the best spot treatment for dry patches. It's a very unique case where I do love this product, just not as intended. I don't like it as an eye cream, but eye cream is an optional step in the first place."

    "I didn't even know I needed this. I'm always iffy on eye creams, but talk about an eye cream that is perfect for me, this is focused on repair with sea buckthorn, ceramides, and now also peptides, plus algae and lipids. It's like it's already got everything I want right there in one product. I like the change of the name from Liquid Gold to Lipid Gold because that emphasizes the lipid content. Yet again Stratia knocked it out of the park, I'm sorry in advance if this ends up becoming another favorite on this channel."
    Yay
    "One thing that I always say it kind of lacks occlusivity, but the eye cream has some petroleum added into it which is just enough to really help hug in all of that moisture and emolliency and help to protect the eye area from moisture loss. The skin around your eye is a lot thinner, it's a little bit more delicate, and that's why it's more prone to moisture loss or hydration loss and more prone to the breakdown of collagen. I think it was a really smart move to add that into the eye cream formula. They've also added in collagen peptides so it helps to stimulate some collagen production around that eye area which can be more prone to showing the fine lines and wrinkles and the collagen structure breakdown a lot sooner, so I love that they've included peptides specifically for that purpose. There is no niacinamide in the eye cream formula, and one other change is the addition of three special ingredients that are meant to target darkness in the eye area."
    Yay
    "So in here we've got rose hip oil, we've got sea buckthorn oil, we've got ceramides, we've got peptides and we also have an algae extract. Algae is great for protecting skin and works great as an antioxidant. So some really nice ingredients in here. The package is so cute and tiny, and it's half an ounce."

    What the evidence says.

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

    Urea

    Urea both holds water in the skin and gently loosens dead surface cells. At higher strengths it has good evidence for very dry or thickened skin.

    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.

    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.
