Hesperidin
Also known as vitamin P, hesperidin is used as a brightening agent as it helps to suppress melanin transport in the skin, leading to a reduction in the appearance of dark circles for more awake-looking eyes.
Caffeine
Ideal for reducing the appearance of puffiness and darkness under the eyes, caffeine is known to be a vasoconstrictor which can help to diminish the appearance of dark circles whilst visibly firming and lifting the entire eye area.

With a unique ability to attract and retain more than 1,000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid draws moisture from the lower layers of the skin to provide intense hydration.
