Dermalogica Stress Positive Eye Lift is an active, cooling
cream-gel that works with the skin's natural microbiome, or microflora,
to brighten and energise the eye area, while Sea Water Extract and
Arctic Algae minimise the look of puffiness and dark circles.
Dermalogica Skin Type

Product Benefits
- Firms skin to help generate a lifting effect.
- Visibly de-puffs the under-eye area.
- Energises skin and helps restore skin barrier integrity.
- Brightens the appearance of dark under-eye circles.
- Works with the skin's natural microbiome
Ingredients
- Tephrosia Purpurea (Wild Indigo) Seed Extract: Wild Indigo is a
native Indian plant used in the Ayurvedic tradition for its
anti-inflammatory properties.12 This perennial, resilient plant helps
brighten skin by increasing under-eye luminosity, improving skin tone
and visibly reducing under-eye dark circles.
- Maris Aqua (Sea Water) Extract and Hydrolyzed Algin (Artic Algae):
Sea Water Extract is an energising, enriched seawater that helps enhance
the skin barrier for protection against environmental stressors. Arctic
Algae is a humectant or conditioning agent derived from the arctic.
Together,
these two ingredients provide toning action to help combat the
formation of wrinkles and heavy bags. In addition, they help improve
skin firmness under the eyes, smooth fine lines, and reduce the volume
of sagging under-eye bags, aka puffiness.
- Saccharomyces Ferment Lysate Filtrate (Fermented Yeast): Fermented
Yeast is manufactured in a lab using fermentation biotechnology in which
yeast are fed a nutrient media essential for the yeast's development.
This ingredient is helpful for firming and hydrating skin to help
generate a lifting effect, as well as protecting the skin's barrier
integrity. In-vitro studies have confirmed that Fermented Yeast is
effective at protecting skin lipids, which are critical for proper
functioning of the skin’s lipid structure. In-vivo clinical studies have
shown that Fermented Yeast has anti-wrinkle, skin-firming abilities as
well as the ability to reduce Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) and
enhance skin moisturisation.
- Hyaluronic Acid Blend: Our natural levels of Hyaluronic Acid
decrease with age, resulting in drier, thinner skin. This calibrated
blend contains Hyaluronic Acids of various molecular sizes that work
synergistically to provide exceptional hydrating benefits. The smaller
Hyaluronic Acid molecules penetrate further into the skin to improve
moisturisation while the larger molecules stay near the surface, forming
a protective film that decreases Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL).
Added benefits include antioxidant power, enhanced skin elasticity and
strengthening of the skin barrier for an overall lifted effect.
- Diglucosyl Gallic Acid: This next-generation molecule is activated
by the skin's natural microbiome, or stratum microbium, to brighten
hyperpigmentation – one of several factors that can contribute to
appearance of dark circles under the eyes. Stratum microbium are natural
"microflora," or microorganisms, that live on the upper layers of the
stratum corneum. These microflora convert Diglucosyl Gallic Acid into
TriHydroxy Benzoic Acid,17 which has four times the antioxidant power of
Vitamin C and is 60 times more efficient than Kojic Acid (a natural
alternative to Hydroquinone) at brightening the skin.
