Under Eye Cream 15ml

Himalaya Under Eye Cream is a herbal ophthalmic cosmetic cream available in a 15 ml tube. The product comes in a white box with a pink and magenta curved design element on the left side, featuring the brand’s green leaf-like logo near the top. A clear window on the right side of the box reveals the product tube inside, which has a pink label and a teal cap. The cream is dermatologically tested, non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic, and paraben-free, making it suitable for all skin types and both men and women.

This cream contains a proven and safe blend of herbs specially created to care for the delicate area around the eyes. The key active ingredients are Cipadessa Baccifera, Winter Begonia (Bergenia Ligulata), and Wheat Germ Oil. Cipadessa Baccifera is known to improve the appearance of dry skin, lighten under-eye circles, and prevent the formation of fine lines. Winter Begonia (Bergenia Ligulata) helps in lightening the skin under the eyes and brightening the under-eye area. Wheat Germ Oil is a rich source of natural Vitamin E and acts as an excellent skin conditioning emollient, protecting the under-eye area from sun damage and pollution while adding a nourishing touch to the skin.

The primary indications for this cream are the reduction of dark circles around the eyes, prevention of wrinkle formation, and smoothing of fine lines in the under-eye area. Dark circles appear because of the comparatively thinner layer of skin around the eyes which is not endowed with oil glands as the rest of the body. As we age, the skin becomes dry and wrinkled, showing signs of aging, and the veins in the lower eye area appear more prominently, causing dark circles. This cream helps diminish pigmentation and blemishes found underneath the eyes while brightening and soothing the dark areas.

Clinical studies have demonstrated that regular use of this cream for 4 weeks results in an 80% reduction of dark circles and a 28% reduction in under-eye wrinkles and fine lines. In a 6-week study, there was a significant, symptomatic, and clinical improvement in under-eye dark circles and pigmentation, along with a reduction in scaling, puffiness, wrinkles, and laxity of skin. No adverse effects were reported in these studies.

The recommended usage is to gently massage the cream into the delicate area beneath the eyes after thorough cleansing. It should be used twice daily, in the morning and before bedtime. The product is not intended for use on children. For best results, consistent use over a minimum of 4 weeks is recommended.

The product is generally very well tolerated with no side effects reported in clinical studies. However, some users have reported a mild burning sensation under the eye, which is usually transient. As with any cosmetic product, if irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider. A patch test is advisable before full application, especially for those with known allergies. The product is safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Important precautions include not applying the cream too close to the eye to avoid getting it into the eyes, washing hands before and after application, and storing the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The tube should be tightly closed after each use to prevent contamination. The product should be kept out of reach of children.

The product is available in India at a price range of approximately 150 to 260 rupees per 15 ml tube and is widely available through major online platforms, supermarkets, and pharmacies. It is an over-the-counter product and does not require a prescription
