KORA ORGANICS Noni Radiant Eye Oil

Product Information

Depending on the cause of your meibomianitis, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics or steroids to treat your condition. Antibiotics may be in the form of eye drops or creams applied directly to your eyelids, or they may be in pill form. Steroids may help reduce inflammation. After applying a face moisturizer or eye cream, put Uma to work. Use the oil’s dropper to squeeze a drop or two directly under the eye, and lightly pat until the liquid is absorbed. If you plan to wear under-eye concealer, wait a few minutes for the oil to dry first.

Designed to improve sagging skin around the eyes, this sensitive skin-friendly under-eye serum boosts elasticity and restores damaged skin. It contains two potent anti-aging ingredients: retinal and ginseng. Retinal, which is similar to retinol, is an ingredient that helps increase cell and collagen production, reducing the look of fine lines and wrinkles, and does so while being a touch gentler than prescription formulas. Ginseng is an herbal ingredient that, when applied topically, can reduce inflammation, boost hydration, and protect the skin barrier. All that is to say, this stuff is the secret sauce when it comes to gentle yet effective anti-aging skincare.
