Eye Cream

Yes, because the eye area needs a lot of moisture. The hyaluronic acid serum should ideally be fragrance-free and free from spreading agents. Low molecular hyaluronic acid absorbs into the skin and helps bind moisture there, high molecular hyaluronic acid forms a moisture-binding film on the surface of the skin. Thus, these two types are suitable for the eye area.

With crows feet or laugh lines, prevention is the best medicine. Sun protection, regular moisturization, e.g. in the form of hyaluronic acid and an eye cream are means to reduce this type of wrinkle. An eye cream should contain antioxidants, as these act as free radical scavengers and thus help prevent oxidative stress. Peptides as collagen boosters are also helpful and support the skin structure. Hyaluronic acid is a good solution for hydration and suppleness.

Fine lines and wrinkles under the eyes can have a number of causes. Although the skin becomes thinner with age and the synthesis of collagen decreases, UV radiation is the main cause of wrinkles around the eyes. The first step towards a smoother, suppler eye area is therefore the regular application of sun protection or wearing sunglasses, to avoid wrinkles from forming in the first place.

Wrinkles can have very different causes: when creases are caused by dryness, the skin lacks moisture, which in turn has an impact on elasticity and radiance. These types of wrinkles can be addressed relatively well with the right cosmetics. Fine lines and wrinkles can also be caused by the skin's natural aging process, in which hyaluronic acid and collagen production decreases. To a certain extent, serums and creams can counteract the natural skin aging process. A lack of hyaluronic acid can mainly be overcome by the external application of a hyaluronic acid serum; native collagen is available as serums, pads or masks. If the wrinkles have been deepened for years, e.g. through exposure to the sun, it becomes more difficult to compensate, as there is usually structural damage to the tissue. The situation is similar with relaxed muscles, e.g. in the nasolabial folds.

Creases caused by dryness can have various causes and appear even at a young age. They indicate the presence of too little moisture in the upper layers of the skin. This can be caused by external factors such as UV radiation or cold weather, dry air or exhaust gases as well as by a loss of elasticity of the skin in the course of natural aging. Cosmetics with concentrated, intensive hydration can help against creases caused by dryness. Hyaluronic acid serums with low molecular weight hyaluronic acid are particularly well suited as they absorb into the skin and bind large amounts of moisture there. But plant saps such as aloe vera can also counteract dryness.

For sensitive eyes, we recommend an eye cream with vegetable fats instead of rich oils, as these do not get into the eyes easily and can cause irritation. Shea butter is particularly suitable. The eye cream should be largely fragrance-free and strengthen the natural skin barrier.

The eye area has a particularly high need for hydration due to the thin skin and the activity from surrounding muscles. Due to the low sebum production in the eye area, moisture cannot also not be contained well, which is why lipids (fats) can help support the skin barrier. An eye cream should therefore have a hydrating effect and ideally contain natural fats that blend into the sebum to improve moisturization.

Depending on the type of eye cream and your current skin condition, an eye cream can also be used on the face, but it is not always the best solution due to the concentration of active ingredients and the resulting price.

The delicate eye area is often the first area where signs of skin aging become visible. Since this area is structurally different from the rest of the face, it also needs care tailored to its needs. The skin around the eyes is particularly thin, there is a constant strain on the 22 muscles in the eye region and the eye area lacka of sebum. An eye cream therefore addresses the increased need for moisture and oil in this area of the skin, helps the skin maintain its elasticity and thus helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Sustainability, purity and naturalness are very important to us. In organic cultivation, farmers have to ensure crop rotation, renounce on pesticides or chemical fertilizers and are not allowed to use genetically modified seeds. Only this kind of farming is in line with our core values.

Yes, we love animals and would never test cosmetics on them! In our formulations we completely renounce on animal product and don't even use honey or beeswax. Also our hyaluronic acid is synthesized from plant-material.

No, the GREEN series only features natural fragrances, either as essential oils, natural extracts or cold-pressed oils.

Purity and skin compatbility are key in our products. We have a very clear philosophy to renounce on unnecessary fillers to save costs or get to a comfortable texture easily. As a principle, we renounce on mineral oils and silicones and instead use organic-grade cold pressed oils and natural lipds. This alternative is far more exepnsive, but allows us to create products with luxurious textures that contain precious nutrients that absorb into skin. In general, natural oils and lipids integrate far better into the skin's balance: as an emulsion they resemble human sebum and are therefore very well compatible with the skin and gentle to nature and the environment. They further properly absorb into the upper layers of the skin and condition dry skin especially well.

We have very high standards for ingredients and packaging. In our ingredients, we particularly focus on their purity. Through constant quality control and tests, we make sure that only the best products leave our production. High-quality dispensers with airless technology guarantee that germs and bacteria don't even make it into our products. This allows us to renounce on preservatives for the most part, and work with preserving active ingredients like natural antioxidants, essential oils, tocopherol or citric acid.
