Tired of looking tired? Meet the Anua Retinol 0.1 Caffeine Revitalizing Eye Cream. This powerhouse formula is your one-step solution to tackle stubborn dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines for a visibly brighter and smoother under-eye area.

Why We Love It

• Visibly Reduces Fine Lines: Features 0.1% Retinal, a potent form of Vitamin A that works faster than traditional retinol to smooth away wrinkles.
• De-puffs and Brightens: A powerful 5% Caffeine concentrate instantly energizes tired eyes, reducing puffiness and the look of dark circles.
• Deeply Hydrates & Protects: Packed with Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides to plump the delicate eye area and strengthen your skin barrier.
• Beginner-Friendly Retinoid: A gentle yet effective formula perfect for those new to the world of retinoids.
• Airless Pump Packaging: Keeps the potent ingredients stable and hygienic until the very last drop.

Key Ingredients Explained

• 0.1% Retinal: The star of the show! A fast-acting retinoid that stimulates collagen production to firm skin and minimize wrinkles with less irritation.
• 5% Caffeine: Like a shot of espresso for your eyes. It helps reduce puffiness and visibly brighten dark shadows.
• Niacinamide & Adenosine: This dynamic duo works together to brighten skin tone and provide proven anti-aging benefits.
• Ceramides & Hyaluronic Acid: These are your skin’s best friends. They lock in moisture, prevent dryness, and keep the delicate eye area supple and healthy.

How to Use

Step 1: After your serum step, dispense a rice-sized amount onto your ring finger.

Step 2: Gently tap the cream around your orbital bone (the bone outlining your eye socket). Avoid the lash line and eyelids.

Frequency: PM ONLY. Start slow! Use 2-3 times a week for two weeks. If your skin is happy, you can gradually increase to every other night or nightly.

Morning Routine: Always, always, always follow up with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) in the morning.

Expert Tips & Tricks

• PERFECT PAIRINGS: Layer this eye cream over a hydrating serum (like Hyaluronic Acid) and follow with a simple, barrier-supporting moisturizer packed with Ceramides. This “sandwich” method helps lock in moisture and minimize potential irritation.
• WHAT TO AVOID: Don’t use this eye cream in the same routine as other strong actives like Vitamin C, AHAs, or BHAs. To use both, apply your Vitamin C in the morning and the Anua Retinal Eye Cream at night.

Q&A For You

Q: Can I use this for milia?

A: While Retinal can help improve skin cell turnover which may help with milia over time, this product is primarily designed for wrinkles and dark circles. For persistent milia, it’s best to consult a dermatologist.

Q: Is this eye cream suitable for sensitive skin?

A: This formula is designed to be gentle, but it contains a potent active ingredient (Retinal). We strongly recommend patch-testing on your arm or behind your ear before applying it to your eye area. Start usage slowly (2-3 times a week) to allow your skin to adjust.
