KINU SMOOTHING EYE CREAM

1) reduces the depth of expression lines thanks to a peptide complex that works through a mechanism similar to that of botulinum toxin (Botox)

2) a marine-derived active ingredient* capable of significantly stimulating collagen synthesis (in vitro analysis), reducing the depth of wrinkles, and giving the skin greater tone and firmness (in vivo analysis)

*This marine active ingredient precisely replicates the behavior that bacteria in the most extreme marine ecosystems adopt to survive under adverse conditions (e.g., harsh climates, environmental stress): the same defensive mechanism applied in cosmetics—thanks to the same complex exopolysaccharides found in marine bacteria—helps protect the skin from premature aging by shielding it from environmental stress, damage to the skin barrier, and loss of hydration and elasticity

3) It reduces, lightens, and brightens the appearance of dark under-eye circles (significant reduction in the “yellowish undertone,” significant increase in radiance to counteract a dull and tired appearance, and reduced visibility of vascular dark circles as early as the first 4 weeks, according to in vivo analyses), thanks to a bioflavonoid (alpha-glucosyl hesperidin) derived from citrus fruits** that stimulates microcirculation. It helps reduce the yellowish undertone around the eyes

**perché gli agrumi? Per secoli in giappone la buccia degli agrumi è stata aggiunta ai bagni caldi per il suo effetto aromatico e per la sua sensazione di “calore” che produce dopo il bagno. Infatti l’esperidina che è contenuta negli agrumi, si conferma come una sostanza in grado di stimolare la circolazione sanguigna, da cui la sensazione di maggior calore. L’esperidina in ambito cosmetico si rivela preziosa per le sue proprietà antiossidanti, per il supporto al microcircolo cutaneo migliorando l’ingiallimento della pelle, l’aspetto opaco e l’occhiaia scura. Lo stress, cambiamenti atmosferici, mancanza di sonno, poca mobilità, etc.. possono ridurre il microcircolo cutaneo causando l’occhiaia scura sotto gli occhi e un aspetto della pelle più opaco. L’AGH promuove il microcircolo per contribuire alla riduzione dell’aspetto estetico di questi problemi.

4) Effetto lenitivo e calmante, che dona immediato sollievo alla zona del contorno occhi, specialmente dopo una giornata intensa davanti agli schermi, grazie all’azione della Malva officinalis

5) Effetto idratante, nutriente ed emolliente del burro di Karitè

Argireline® Peptide Solution C: a peptide complex with a Botox-like effect that reduces the depth of wrinkles around the eyes.

Seacode: a marine-derived active ingredient capable of significantly stimulating collagen synthesis (in vitro analysis), reducing the depth of wrinkles, and giving the skin greater tone and firmness (in vivo analysis).


AGH: a bioflavonoid derived from citrus fruits that stimulates microcirculation to reduce, lighten, and brighten the appearance of dark circles under the eyes.

Shea butter: protects the lipid layer of the skin and acts as an emollient; stimulates the production of collagen and elastin.

Mallow extract: soothing, calming, and restorative

Vitamin E: antioxidant.

Organic ivy extract: protects blood vessels and tones the skin to combat sagging and loss of firmness.

1) Is it suitable for sensitive skin and eyes?

A. Kinu Smoothing Eye Cream is dermatologically tested on sensitive skin and is completely fragrance-free (no added fragrance) so that even the most sensitive eyes can tolerate it well.

2) Should Kinu be applied before or after face cream?

A. There isn’t one order that’s significantly better than another: generally, the rule is to apply the product with the lightest texture first and the product with the richest texture last. However, it makes sense to apply Kinu Smoothing Eye Cream after the serum (for example, Taki Moist Lotion) and before the face cream, especially if the cream you’re going to apply contains sunscreen (Hikari Daily Sunscreen).
