The floral water of matricaria recutita (blue chamomile) is also used in the composition of our eye contour gel : this plant has soothing and relaxing properties for the skin, as well as properties anti-inflammatories.
To fight against wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes, you can count on hyaluronic acid and the vitamin b3. The latter improves skin texture by reducing the appearance of enlarged pores, fine lines and wrinkles.
