Product Of The Week: Innisfree Green Tea Hyaluronic Acid Eye Serum

What the words chocolate and candy do for someone with a sweet tooth, the words hyaluronic acid and green tea do for us, the skincare obsessed. So yes, we salivated, devoured and then jumped up and down in excitement when we got our hands on Innisfree’s Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Acid Eye Serum.

Why? Because hyaluronic acid promotes healthy, supple skin. It helps heal blemishes and teeny tiny wounds from blemishes. And it binds moisture to it, keeping our dermis looking younger and more hydrated. As for green tea, it is anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and anti-bacterial, and includes a healthy helping of B12, vitamin E and caffeine—all to make our undereye skin firmer, brighter and tighter. And did we mention that Innisfree’s Eye Serum’s creates long-lasting antioxidant protection. Combine that with a cooling roll-on massage-tip applicator and we’ve got locked in moisture, delivering deeper and a stronger moisture barrier that leaves us looking rested and refreshed.

We’re also reassured, as the Serum is phthalates, formaldehydes or formaldehyde-releasers, oxybenzone and octinoxate, hydroquinone, triclosan, coal tar, methylisothiazolinone, and insoluble plastic microbeads-free. Plus, its packaging is made from 60 per cent PCS recycled glass, features a metal-free pump for easy recycling, a recycled plastic cap, an outer box composed of green tea by-product and a recycled pulp. Bit of a winner all-round, like a trip to the candy store, wouldn’t you say?
