Licorice pH Balancing Intensive Eye Cream

US stock

An eye cream that pairs brightening with a bit of firming, built around Acwell's signature licorice water for a fresher look around tired eyes. It's rich but still lightweight, tapping in easily without feeling greasy on delicate skin. A good match if dark circles, puffiness, or fine lines are your main focus.

More detail

Licorice water and extract lead the formula and are used to brighten the look of dark circles and uneven tone, while caffeine helps with the appearance of puffiness and peptides like acetyl hexapeptide-8 lend gentle firming support. Antioxidants such as glutathione, green tea, and blueberry sit alongside niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, glycerin, ceramides, and centella to keep the eye area calm and hydrated. The cream feels rich yet absorbs without heaviness. After cleansing, tap a small amount around the eyes until it sinks in; it can also be used as a spot brightener elsewhere or over the whole face for extra moisture. It's made without artificial fragrance, essential oils, parabens, or mineral oil, so it suits sensitive skin, though as with any eye product, keep it from getting directly into your eyes.
