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

- 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.
