What Does Curel Moisture Repair Eye Cream Do?

According to Kao, Curel Moisture Repair Eye Cream moisturises the eye area deep into the stratum corneum and keeps it moist and firm, and makes fine lines from dryness less visible (tested in efficacy evaluation). Its “moisture repair” formula is designed to stay on the thin skin around the eyes and on the eyelids and moisturise for a long time, and allantoin helps prevent rough skin. Kao doesn’t claim it removes wrinkles, dark circles or puffiness.

Allantoin

The active ingredient, an anti-inflammatory that helps prevent rough skin.

Cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide

Kao’s ceramide functioning ingredient, which Kao says supplements the work of ceramides.

Eucalyptus extract

A plant extract that Kao lists as a moisturising ingredient.

Glycerin

A humectant in the formula.

Curel Moisture Repair Eye Cream Full Ingredient List

How to Apply Curel Eye Cream

Apply Curel Moisture Repair Eye Cream morning and night after your toner and milk or cream, and in the morning before makeup base or sunscreen. The eye area is especially sensitive, so don’t rub.

  1. After your toner and milk or cream, such as Curel lotion and Curel Intensive Moisture Cream, take a dollop about 5 mm across for each eye.
  2. Place it in three dots under each eye and three on each upper eyelid.
  3. With your middle and ring fingers together, press it in gently from the inner corner of the eye towards the outer corner.
  4. In the morning, apply makeup base or sunscreen after the eye cream, such as one from our Curel sunscreen guide.

Kao says you can also use it on other dry, flaky areas, such as around the mouth. If it affects how your makeup goes on in the morning, use less or use it only at night. Kao’s label says not to use it on cuts, swellings, eczema or other abnormal skin, and to stop and see a dermatologist if irritation appears; keep it out of your eyes.
