What it is

Dermalogica describes Age Reversal Eye Complex as an eye treatment with microencapsulated retinol. The brand recommends it for all skin types and concerns including dark circles, fine lines, wrinkles and puffiness.

Key ingredients

  • Microencapsulated retinol: Dermalogica says its microencapsulation technology optimizes retinol potency and absorption to help reduce the appearance of fine lines.
  • Niacinamide and ash tree bark extract: The brand says these help maintain hydration and reduce the appearance of dark circles.
  • Vitamin C and peptides: Dermalogica includes these in its Age Reversal Firming Complex, which it says helps fortify and smooth skin.

How to use

After cleansing, smooth and pat the product around the eye area, moving from the outer corner inward. Start on alternate nights for the first two weeks, then increase to nightly use as skin responds.

Who should be careful

Dermalogica advises using this retinol product at night because retinol may increase sensitivity to UV exposure, and recommends SPF for daytime. This is general product information, not medical advice.

What the brand claims

Dermalogica says its microencapsulated retinol helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, while the niacinamide and ash tree bark extract combination helps reduce visible dark circles. These are the brand’s product claims, not our findings.
