Medik8 Illuminating Eye Balm for Brighter Eyes
Medik8 Illuminating Eye Balm is a lightweight under-eye treatment designed to instantly brighten, hydrate, and refresh tired-looking eyes. Infused with light-reflecting pigments, this balm visibly reduces the appearance of dark circles while softening uneven texture. Red algae extract works to ease puffiness, while cucumber extract and hyaluronic acid deeply hydrate and soothe the delicate eye area. The balm’s optical diffusers create a subtle glow, promoting a smooth, supple, and youthful-looking finish. Ideal for morning use, it nourishes the under-eye zone without irritation, making it perfect for daily use, including under makeup.
'A brightening eye balm that instantly refreshes tired eyes. With light-reflecting mineral pigments, hyaluronic acid, and soothing actives, it hydrates, reduces puffiness, and gives the under-eyes a radiant, well-rested look.' - Ekin Guney, MSc, Molecular Biology & Genetics, Member of Dermoi Scientific Advisory Board
Scientific Background:
Hyaluronic Acid — hydrates; temporarily smooths the look of fine lines by increasing SC water
Red Algae extracts — polysaccharide-rich; antioxidant/soothing potential; cosmetic use evidence base is mostly preclinical/early clinical
Cucumber extract — traditional depuffing/soothing claim; evidence mainly from reviews and lab data (limited clinical)
