Not sure it's right for your skin? Four questions — Daddy will tell you.

The under-eye, woken up.

The eye area is the first place tiredness files its report — puffiness, shadows, the fine lines dryness deepens overnight. IRIS answers all three at once. Three organic plant extracts do the visible work: horse chestnut and ginkgo go after puffiness and dark circles, grape leaf brightens the dullness, and multi-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid targets the lines and the dryness underneath them. The eye area comes out rested and fresh, instantly — and, with use, stays that way.

The texture is light for a cream this nourishing — shea butter and rice bran oil feed the thin skin without sitting heavy, absorb clean, and leave nothing to migrate into the eye or shine under concealer. Normal to oily skin, morning and night.

Rested, fresh, awake. Whether or not you actually were. Flesh, awake.

What it does

  • Reduces the look of puffiness and dark circles
  • Targets fine lines and dryness with multi-weight HA
  • Brightens a tired, dull under-eye
  • Instantly refreshed look; light, clean finish

What is in it

Horse chestnut

Horse chestnut seed extract.

Ginkgo

At 1%. Antioxidant and circulatory support, sitting under the peptides.

Betaine

Sugar-beet humectant. Draws in moisture and takes the edge off surfactants, which is why a wash built on it rinses without that tight, squeaky finish.

Sunflower seed oil (organic)

Sunflower seed oil (organic) + tocopherol (vitamin E) — replenishes what the scrub removes; leaves skin conditioned, not stripped

Shea butter

Organic, unrefined. The occlusive that gives a light cream enough body to actually stay put.

Coco-glucoside

Sugar-and-coconut derived surfactant. Does the washing without the harshness that makes a daily wash a bad idea.

Ascorbyl palmitate (vitamin C)

The oil-soluble, more stable form of vitamin C — brightening and antioxidant, without the instability that keeps the pure acid form in dark bottles.

Tocopherol (vitamin E)

Vitamin E. Protects the oils in the bottle as much as the skin they go on.

Hyaluronic acid

Humectant; pulls water into the upper layers and holds it there, so skin reads plump rather than merely damp. Used here at multiple molecular weights so it works at more than one depth.

How to use

Morning and evening, on clean skin. A rice-grain amount per eye, tapped along the orbital bone with the ring finger, inner corner outward. Morning before BASIS or LEVIS; night after serum, before SOMNUS. Chill it or layer over VIGIL on a heavy morning. In the THE RESERVE set.

Daddy's eyes have seen things, and he'd rather they didn't announce it before he's had coffee. Tap, don't drag — the skin here is thinner than anywhere else on you, and it remembers being manhandled.
