Augustinus Bader The Eye Cream

Does-it-all eye cream with serious, clinically proven results / 15 ml

Augustinus Bader’s Eye Cream is a product that was created because, as their team explained, “An eye cream was our most requested product of all time.” Makes sense; the delicate skin around the eyes can sometimes be the first on our faces to show signs of a little wearing-down. But so many eye creams end up as disappointments.

True to Bader form, however, this one doesn’t, and it has the clinical test results to prove it. Over 12 weeks, it was shown to visibly reduce fine lines by 57%, improve hydration by over 200%, reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation by 56%, and improve the feel of skin’s firmness by 165%.

And by the way, unlike many others’, Augustinus Bader’s use of the term “clinical test” is correct: they are actually measuring the results in the skin, not asking users if they think they see an improvement. But they did those user trials, too, and the story checked out with 97% of users agreeing, on average, that it showed improvement in basically everything you could think of — luminosity, puffiness, dark circles, bags, crows’ feet, fine lines, hydration, firmness, elasticity, smoothness, etc. In short: this stuff works. 

Like all of Bader’s formulas, The Eye Cream is powered by their proprietary TFC8 complex to stimulate cell renewal, along with vitamin C for radiance; niacinamide to soothe and protect from blue light; seaweed extracts to address puffiness and dark circles; Arjun tree extract to firm; and pennywort for hydration.

On top of it all, the texture is an absolute dream. The fragrance-free cream melts into skin and delivers all the hydration and moisture you’d expect from a thick, rich balm in a lighter texture that will alleviate the fears of all who’ve experienced milia from an eye cream that’s too thick. It’s the most moisturizing, hydrating eye formula we carry.

It’s housed in recyclable tube that fits into a ceramic docking station of sorts, which can sit on your dresser or by the side of your sink to say, “Look at me!” (Yes, it’s more packaging than we tend to like, but it’s a refillable system — and it’s a good reminder to put your eye cream on every day.) Note that the refill, which is called “The Nomad,” is excellent for travel but has a rounded bottom. So if you want this marvelous product to sit comfortably with your product collection, you’ll want to start with the complete set.
