I woke up like this...
Look like you got eight hours of sleep with a little drop of this brightening, lightweight eye cream. Reformulated for more effective skin solutions, say bye to fine lines and puffiness, thanks to star ingredients including Kavana's Phyto-5 blend, Green coffee extract, Hyaluronic acid, Allantoin and Panthenol (Pro Vitamin B5) .
Glow on gorgeous! This two-in-one hlighter and eye cream has a subtle shimmery blend of micas, that works as a soft focus glow around the eyes. Use it under your concealer or all on it's own!
One pump is enough for both eyes. Apply with ring finger around the orbital cavity of the eyes, never on the lid or too close to the underside of the eye. The heat of your hands will help it migrate to where it needs to go.
Kavana's Phyto-5 Luminous Eye Cream is powered by Phyto 5, a blend of five plant oils including rosehip, calendula, comfrey, plantain and echinacea, macerated in Sunflower seed oil. It also includes:
- Green Coffee extract or more specifically caffeine, the purine alkaloid in coffee, helps protect skin from oxidative stress. (source). It exhibits anti inflammatory, vaso-dilator properties, which may help reduce the appearance of puffiness and dark circles around the eye area. (source).
- Hyaluronic acid 1% blend. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the human body that has numerous benefits for skin health and beauty. Its function in eye creams, is to help to hydrate, firm, and brighten the delicate skin around the eyes, which can attenuate the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circles.

- Allantoin Allantoin is widely considered to be a versatile, safe, and effective skin care ingredient with many different benefits that may include smoothing, softening, and healing of skin, promoting the shedding of outer layers of the epidermis, cellular replication and healthy tissue growth. (source) Most famously derived from comfrey's root mucilage, this emollient , which is also endogenous to the human body, can also be chemically synthesized. (source)

Know More
Phyto-5 complexe, Green Coffee extract and Hyaluronic acid, power this eye cream, giving a pillowy bounce to a lightweight, yet richly nourishing eye cream.
- PHYTO-5 complexe is a blend of extracts from five plants known to exhibit healing properties and that have been used for millennia to help with skin healing and protection. Wildcrafted in Ontario, Canada*, these plants benefit the skin most by acting in concert, which may help reduce trans-epidermal water loss, boost collagen, potentially calm inflammation and deeply nourish the skin. *except rosehip seed oil from Chile.
- Green Coffee extract: Coffee may help treat stubborn dark circles under the eyes, because the caffeine content in coffee is thought to help dilate blood vessels that contribute to dark circles. Known to exhibit anti-inflammatory effects that may be attributed to chorogenic acid (CGA) found in coffee, which may help reduce the appearance of inflammation and 'puffiness'. Caffeine, the purine alkaloid in coffee, helps protect skin from oxidative stress. (source). It exhibits anti inflammatory, vaso-dilator properties, which may help reduce the appearance of puffiness and dark circles around the eye area. (source).
- Hyaluronic acid 1% blend. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the human body that has numerous benefits for skin health and beauty. Its function in eye creams, is to help to hydrate, firm, and brighten the delicate skin around the eyes, which can attenuate the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circles.
- Blue Cornflower (Centaurea cyanis) extract. Commonly used in skincare products due to its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, it can calm red patches on sensitive skin, and is recommended for tired and irritated eyes. Eyes with dark circles and bags can also benefit from its decongesting properties, that can help deflate and reduce puffiness around the eyes. Anthocyanins in cornflower, a particular type of flavonoid or naturally occurring plant pigment that contain antioxidant properties, are thought to lead to its healing and brightening effects. These may contribute to preventing free radical damage to the skin and improve circulation around the delicate eye area.
