Dermaquest RiQ Retinol Eye 7.08g

DermaQuest RiQ Retinol Eye is an eye cream designed to target visible signs of ageing and improve the look of the delicate eye area. According to the brand, it combines microencapsulated retinol with allosteris (a retinoid amplifier) to support results without the downtime typically associated with retinol. It also pairs this retinoid blend with soothing ceramides, plus firming peptides and hyaluronic acid, to help the eye area look brighter, lifted, plumper and more hydrated.

In use, the focus is on fine lines, laxity, rough texture and discolouration, alongside helping to reduce the look of puffiness and dark circles. The formula also includes caffeine for visible under-eye benefits and a barrier-supporting ceramide complex to help the skin feel more comfortable.

Notable ingredients include retinal, caffeine, ceramide NP/AP/EOP, sodium hyaluronate and hydroxyzome retinaldehyde-24 (0.05%), alongside a range of moisturising and conditioning components such as glycerin and ceramides. For best results, DermaQuest advises applying a thin layer every evening and using SPF, as photosensitivity may occur.
